Fit Review Friday! Athleta Seasoft Rib Crewneck, Seasoft Mid Rise Straight Crop, Midday Cropped Shirt

 

Happy Friday! I went to get my annual check up and I received a pneumonia vaccine. It completely wiped me out afterwards. My blood pressure is also a bit low. Unsure why, waiting to hear back from the lab. The joys of getting older. 😆

Athleta's Friends and Family Event is still happening. 30% off everything. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4/6 in Lululemon.



I reviewed these two items in the last Athleta post, but I took some more photos in case someone wanted to see how it looked as a matching set. I'm not sure I can pull it off? I think it looks better worn separately. What do you guys think? I feel like the color needs to be broken up with a vest or something. 


Pyrite is a really nice neutral, it's like a light mocha brown. It can look darker depending on the lighting.


This button up is the Midday Cropped Shirt. I don't normally like white tops because I'm such a klutz, but I think this is going to be very versatile as a layer underneath cardigans and sweatshirts. 



The length is cropped but not overly so on my petite frame. I think it's a great length especially if wearing under a sweatshirt/cardigan. It is slightly sheer though if you are wearing it on its own.


I could have gotten away with XXS, as this is a pretty relaxed fit, but I don't mind the look. It's a very casual vibe and I dig it with the Seasoft pants. I could almost get away with wearing this to the office I think, maybe not with the Allbirds though.



I'm pretty tired from this vaccine, so I am keeping this post short! Have a fantastic weekend everyone! Zzzzzzzzz.... I'm out. 😴

  1. I love both of those Seasoft pieces, but I don't think I love them together. Pyrite is a great neutral and I think pairing it with something with a little more color could be fun.

    Sorry to hear your vaccination kicked your butt, and I hope the low blood pressure turns out to be nothing. Rest up this weekend!

    1. Hi Lola! Thanks, my blood work came back fine. Not sure why my BP was low. Doctor doesn't seem to have any insight. Hopefully it was an anomaly and goes back to normal.

  2. Hi Leslie,
    Thanks for another great fit review!

    I love Athleta’s Seasoft bottoms and ordered the crop in Pyrite as well. I have the Cozy Karma Twist Neck Sweatshirt in Pyrite which I love, but the colors are usually more faded in Seasoft material. Can’t wait to see how the Pyrite Crop looks in person.

    In my opinion, the crewneck sweatshirt and the crop are both nice items but I would wear them separately. Every time I pair my Seasoft Crewneck Sweatshirt with a pair of Seasoft bottoms, it gives me PJ vibes. : D

    Have a wonderful weekend, Leslie, and I hope you’ll feel better soon!

    1. Hi Andrea! Yeah I was thinking it looks a bit too much like PJs. haha! Will be wearing them separately. Maybe if the crewneck was a zip up hoodie instead it might look better.

      Thanks! Will take a relaxing weekend.

  3. What kind of material is the mid day cropped shirt like? Is it more on the cotton/linen side or the synthetic side (like some of their brooklyn pants and such)?

    Love your blog by the way!

    1. Hi Meech! Thank you so much! It's made out of polyester, it sort of feels like the Brooklyn pant but slightly thicker, just slightly and not as silky. I would have thought it had some cotton added just a touch. I really like it though! It's very comfy.

  4. Hope you are rebounding from your vaccine. I’m a bit older than you. I felt much the same way after my shingrix (shingles) shots. You need 2 of them. But I think it’s worth it to feel bad for a day or two rather than the alternative.

    1. Thank you, I am feeling better today. It took about 2 days to recover. I'm not looking forward to getting the shingles shot. =T

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 ...

Review! Lululemon's Large Everywhere Belt Bag Size Comparison Plus Video!

  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.
