Interesting drop today. It really looks like there's no more numerical sizing on new styles, both tops and bottoms. I probably won't order online as often and will rely on store try-ons more. Only 10 more days to go! For those not on a shopping break, did you pick anything up to try? I'm really curious for those who have tried the alpha sizing, what do you think? Do you find yourself in-between sizes?
(Would love these, but inseam is still 29.5" I'll try to catch these at the store for a try-on. If anyone gets these at their store and sees my comment let me know what you think!)
(Of course, the short length doesn't get Solar Gray. 😒 I also think I've seen Billie Eilish in a similar outfit.)
(They are really marketing towards Gen Z now. Makes me feel old.)
😐
(Did I tell you that I used to work at the Gap back when I was in college? This totally brings back memories. 😆)
😍
(They have really given up on the numerical sizing. 😞)
(This is kind of cute. Love the color.)
Those Daydrift Trousers really caught my eye, but a 29.5 inch inseam is a definite no-go. Can we please get an extra-short, Lulu??
ReplyDeleteI'm bummed they seem to be getting rid of the numerical sizing! I don't have a store in my city to try things on, so I'll be ordering a lot less as well.
Hi Lola! Yeah same, but I'm still curious to see how it would look, and maaaaybe if it was super fabulous I would get them hemmed for work. But seriously, extra short would be amazing.
DeleteI am eyeing the Daydrift High Rise Trouser and would definitely give it a try if Solar Gray is available in short length.
ReplyDeleteSo bummed about the new alpha sizing.

Hi Andrea! Yeah I agree, why not for short lengths? Maybe next week?
DeleteThe trousers and long Softstreme half zip is so pretty! I definitely want something in solar grey… you are not even old!
ReplyDeleteIs it the styling that makes their marketing towards gen z? I can’t even keep track of all the gens now xD but I think the outfit is cute and I like that there’s more differences in styles than just the usual gym wear

Hi Janessa! Haha, thanks! But yes some of the styling now is very Gen Z, the crop tops with the wider bottoms and oversized jackets slung over it. It's a cute look for sure. But agree, I like seeing clothing that's not gym wear. I am loving Solar Gray, especially for a pair of pants.
DeleteOMG Club Blue is so pretty - hoping to see more in the coming weeks.
ReplyDeleteWe got the Daydrift Trousers in on Monday. Since they are Luxtreme, they remind me a lot of the On the Fly Pant. I will try them on tonight and report back. Numerical sizing is going away to align with other retailers using alpha sizing. It also means fewer SKUs - which I think is the real reason. Since I am all over the place with numerical sizing any way, it doesn't both me too much.
Hi LZ! Def let us know about the Daydrift Trousers! I'm going to see if I lean more towards XS or Small and once I feel more confident about guessing the right size I'll probably order online again, but for now, it's a little too unknown.
