Fit Review Friday! Athleta Run With It Jacket and Seasoft Quarter Zip

 


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.



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. 😞




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!

  1. 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

    1. Hi AC! I would definitely recommend trying it in petite sizing to avoid that look. =)

Review! Coach Soft Empire Carryall 40 Merlot

  I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...

Review! Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Size Small Plus Video

  You all know I love my bags, and as a Balenciaga collector, I don't often stray from the City and First style. The Rodeo (pronounced like Rodeo Drive) really caught my eye. It gives off a slouchy Hermes Kelly vibe, but way more practical to use.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Small The Rodeo can be carried a few ways. It comes with a crossbody strap that is not adjustable but it is removable. Not sure why anyone wouldn't add a few extra holes to make a strap adjustable these days. Come on Balenciaga! Do better! The top handle is a bit too long for this to work anyhow, I feel like the top handle gets in the way. It sticks out and doesn't sit well in my opinion. I wouldn't carry this bag crossbody unless it was an unforeseen emergency and I really needed my hands free. This bag looks more chic carried by the handle or crook of the arm. It also looks nice left open with the help of the flap tucked in. The Rodeo resembles the Kelly bag ...

  Happy Friday! I can't believe it's almost Halloween! I actually have a dentist appointment on Halloween. One of my molars chipped and needs to be filled in.
