Happy Friday! Today we have a fit request from Cindy for Athleta's Run With It Jacket. I happened to see one at the store and did a quick try on. I also grabbed the Seasoft Quarter Zip in Pyrite. I am still loving neutrals lately.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size Petite XS in Athleta.
Run With It Jacket Black Size XS
Athleta stores do not carry petite sizing so I usually try on XS and XXS to get an idea of what it might look like on me in size PXS. The Run With It Jacket is fairly roomy in size XS. I would definitely need petite sizing in this jacket.
The jacket length is too long, hitting my low hip. The sleeves are also very long, to no ones surprise.
It's a very comfortable jacket. Fabric is Featherweight Stretch and would make a nice layering piece. Looks like the jacket is no longer being offered in petite sizing, which is very disappointing. I have noticed that Athleta is cutting back on colors and only stocking basic colors like black in petite sizes. 😞
Seasoft Quarter Zip Pyrite Size XS
I tried this pullover a couple of years ago and thought it looked a little too pajama-ish on me, but Pyrite is so pretty, I decided to give it another go. Pyrite is a tan color with gray undertones. Taupetastic is prettier with it being a warmer brown.
I still kind of think it looks too casual on me, I think it needs to be a bit more fitted. I guess this pullover is just not meant for me. Maybe size XXS would look better? I'm unsure. I do think it looks pretty good with the Vuori joggers though.
also wearing Vuori's Boyfriend Cargo Jogger Size XXS.
That's it for me! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend.

(I guess since it's a limited edition drop, there are no petite sizing? 😒)
(In my cart!)
Still waiting for more Taupetastic items, but we finally got a couple!
I have to check out the bomber if I get the chance, I’m always such a sucker for bomber jackets and it’s hard to find one flattering for me, ie not a football player looking
ReplyDeleteHi AC! I would definitely recommend trying it in petite sizing to avoid that look. =)
