Happy Friday! I'm not the praying kind but I'm going to keep everyone affected by the fires in southern California in my thoughts. The news footage is just awful. I hope you're all staying as safe as possible.
In other news, we're 10 days into No Buy January. Just checking in, how is everyone doing/feeling about it? So far, I haven't bought anything but my wish list is growing. I am trying to stay off the internet by re-reading Fourth Wing and Iron Flame before Onyx Storm releases on the 21st. I can't remember if I pre-ordered it or not. I have to check my emails. If not, I will allow myself book purchases. Anyone here into this series? I would love to hear what your theories are! With that, today's post is not so much a fit review, since I've already covered these two hoodies a few times. But they are some of my favorite purchases from December.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4/6 in Lululemon tops.
(on sale $99)
I'm actually kind of shocked that this color hasn't sold out and it's now on WMTM for $99! In the past these hoodies would sell out so fast. It makes me sad to see them still sitting there. This hoodie is one of my favorites from Lululemon. The fleece lining is hard to beat.
Right now, Atlanta is expecting an ice storm and all I want are cozy, fleecy, clothes and being surrounded by my 5 cats and reading a good book with a cup of hot green tea. Hot chocolate is also acceptable.
That said, I can't believe the Scuba Oversized Full Zip Hoodie in Heathered Nightfall completely sold out. 😂 I seriously thought it would have been the other way around.
This hoodie is cute, but it's not the most flattering on everyone. Now, if they made this with the plushy fleece lining, I would be IN TROUBLE!
Don't get me wrong, it is a very cute hoodie, but it's not as cozy. However, Heathered Nightfall is perfection. It makes me happy. Purple is my favorite color! That's all I have for you today! Stay warm, and stay safe everyone.

I didn’t formally say I was doing a no-buy January but so far I haven’t purchased any clothes, shoes, purses. I did buy a $5 vase at Target.
ReplyDeleteI got a puppy right before Christmas. So everything I’m buying is necessary stuff for her.
Hi there! You're doing amazing and Congrats on your new puppy! What kind of dog is she?
DeleteShe’s a chocolate Labrador.
ReplyDeleteSo cute!
DeleteAs a fellow book lover, I can't help but ask, what are some of the favorite books you've ever read?
ReplyDeleteEeeeek, off the top of my head, The Goldfinch, Harry Potter series, Game of Thrones series 1-4, The Fountainhead, The Name of the Wind. Guilty Pleasure reading - I'm a huge fan of JR Ward. Also like Conn Iggulden the Emperor series, I also like Stephen King. Recently, I picked up Butcher & Blackbird and thought that was a lot of fun to read.
DeleteWhat about you?
I love that you’re a reader too! My tastes are very eclectic but I love to hear what others read.
DeleteNice choices! I tend to be all over the place, but lately I read "We Have Been Harmonized" about life in China, and "The Road." The Road is absolutely terrible, horrible, awful, nightmarish. Not sure I can recommend but it is surely unforgettable.
ReplyDeleteHaven't read We have Been Harmonized, but I did read The Road a few years back. Definitely a hard one to get through. Very apocalyptic and despair.
DeleteI just love my nightfall scuba plush! I hot it for Christmas and it quickly became a favorite. I absolutely agree that the plush scubas are the best. They are just so soft and cozy! It's surprising they were on MD. I've still got my eye on bone. Not on sale yet....but hopefully, after no buy January ends!
ReplyDeleteHi Stacy! Same, I am waiting for Bone as well to go on sale. For $99, it's a great price. Super happy with the two I have so far.
DeleteI love the Plush Scubas, but none of the combos have really spoken to me. I had the Heathered Night Diver one from a few years ago but re-homed it, as it pilled so badly. I'm currently waiting for the varsity jacket to go on sale. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not doing a full-out no-buy, but I am trying to very mindful of purchases this year. I thought I was pretty good at being selective about new items, but I regressed! I'm really trying to stick to my wish list and only buy what goes on sale from it - no more random stuff just because it's on sale.
LNY stuff should be this week, so I am letting myself treat...myself.
Hi LZ! I do realize they will pill. So I already know eventually I'll re-home them. Had a few in the past as well. I enjoyed them for a while and that's all I really want. It's kind of the same with my bags. =D
DeleteEeeeek, I am hoping I don't want anything from the LNY drop. So far I've been very good!
OMG, your pics of heathered nightfall are so much nicer than the ones on the lulu site! Would you say your pics are closer to the actual in-person color vs the lulu site?
ReplyDeleteHi! I'd say the ones on Lulu site are pretty accurate. I think the photos of the Oversized Scuba are pretty close to real life. Hope that helps! I love the color.
