Fit Review Friday! Varley Slim Cuff 25 Pant and Pilcro Asymmetrical Button Cashmere Cardigan Sweater

 

Happy Friday! It's January 31st and we made it! It's funny because the photos for this review were literally taken on January 1st.  It was the very first day of my No Buy Challenge. I went to Anthropologie to get some steps in and just to walk around and do some try-ons, not expecting to really like anything. And then I stumbled upon Varley. It almost made me break my ban on the very first day. 😆 I told myself, I'm not gonna let that happen. I walked away and said if I still want it on February 1st, I can buy it then. So here we are, I'm hours away from finally buying my first pair of Varley pants!

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4/6 in Lululemon and PXS in Athleta. 

Balenciaga Rodeo Size Small

The artistic side of me said this was a good shot.


The sweater I'm wearing is Pilcro's Asymmetrical Button Cashmere Cardigan. It's 100% cashmere and feels soft and warm. I really love the neckline. I'm wearing size XS and kind of wish the length was a bit longer. I could probably size up for a looser fit. Price is a little steep at $198, but I'm going to keep an eye on it and see if it goes on sale. 



The moment I touched these pants, I became obsessed with the fabric. It's soooooo soft, the fabric is called DoubleSoft. I'm wearing size small in these and I was surprised at the fit. The length is 25 inches long, which is perfect for petites. 

How good do these look?


The waistband is wide and stretchy. I'm wearing size small and I think they look great. They are super comfy. Size XS would probably fit Lululemon size 2. Size small is equivalent to Lululemon size 4 and 6. Similar to Lululemon's current alpha sizing I suppose! Except Varley actually makes petite friendly inseams which I appreciate so much. 


Pricing is $120 for these joggers, which I will happily pay. Just take my money! They also come in a more professional style with rolled cuffs, which I am totally going to buy. I love wearing pants that feel like your favorite pair of pajamas but look professional enough for the office.

😍


That's it for me! Let me know how you did if you participated in the challenge and what will your first purchase be? Hope you all have a fantastic weekend! Happy February! We made it!

  1. The sweater looks so nice, I am a sucker for asymmetrical neck lines and the price reflects the 100% cashmere I guess. Pants are cute and a good length!

    I ended up breaking and getting a super puff jacket, in black. Second last day of the month is close enough 😊 other than that, this challenge was not as difficult as I thought as there’s not a lot out there I find are must haves and being busy all month also helps curb spending.

    1. Hi AC! Yes I love that sweater, the neckline is very different from anything I have. Would love to get it on sale.

      Not bad at all! I agree, it wasn't that challenging but the first couple of days were the hardest and the worst. Then after I get over that, it was fine.

  2. I survived January with no purchases for me! I’m the one who got a Labrador puppy at the end of December. I think I wore the same four outfits all of the month. At this point in my/her life, new clothes are not a good investment!

    1. Woo hoo! Congratulations! I can't believe how little I spent last month, it blew my mind. It was my best month ever. Super eye opening as to how much I could save every month! I'm almost tempted to keep the challenge going. How do you feel at the end of the month? I agree with a new puppy, new clothes are not ideal.

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.
