Fit Review Friday! Anthropologie Store Try-Ons Pilcro Ozzi Plaid Ruffle Sleeve Button Down, Maeve Shrunken Bennet Buttondown, Maeve Colette Magic Fabric Crop Pant

 

Happy Friday! About 15 years ago I used to love shopping at Anthropolgie. Every Tuesday, Anthro would add items to their sale section, much like Lululemon's WMTM every Thursday. My closet back then used to be 90% Anthro. They had such unique and whimsical pieces that I loved. Even though I don't shop from Anthro as much anymore, I still like to go in to browse. 

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XXS/XS in Anthropologie tops and size 26/27 in their bottoms. I also wear size 4/6/XS/S in Lululemon and size PXS/0P in Athleta.

This Pilcro button down top looked really cute on the hanger, and I tried it on not realizing how puffy the sleeves would be. I'm wearing size XXS and love the fit. It skims nicely over the body without being tight. The sleeves are just too distracting. The fabric was soft and felt a little gauzy. I love a nice plaid button down, but passed because of the ruffles. 

Anthropologie just dropped a dog collection! Before I became a mom to five felines, I used to be a dog mom. This is my grandma walking Chewy and Crunchy. Chewy was my dad's dog and Crunchy was my dog. She was my shadow. Followed me everywhere I went and I happily took her everywhere I went. 

Chewy, Grandma, Crunchy

Super old photo of me and Cruncher, I think I was around 21 years old here.

This is a later photo, judging by those Juicy Couture tracksuit pants, probably 2008?

Chewy and Crunchy eventually passed away, I think 2012 for Chewy and 2014 for Crunchy. When I saw Anthopologie's new dog collection, I had to try on the button down shirt! Crunchy wasn't a golden retriever but, she did have that golden colored coat. 



I'm wearing size XS and it is slightly oversized. This top does come in petite sizing, but it's all sold out already! I totally underestimated how popular this button down would be. I thought it looked great paired with the matching color pant.


The fabric is 100% cotton, and it is fairly thin and see through but the golden retrievers! I mean, how cute is that? I tell you what, if it had little kittens all over it, I would have bought it anyway. 😹



Last we have a pair of Maeve's wide leg crop pant, except at 26 inches long, they are full length on me. These also come in petite sizing with an inseam of 24 inches. I'm wearing size 27 here and they are very high rise. I'm not a fan of high rise because it just sits well, too high over my belly button and the waist was actually a little too loose. Petite sizing would have fit better, but it would still be too high waisted for my liking. Otherwise I did like the fabric, it's very soft and stretchy. 


That's it for me today. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

  1. Hi Leslie! I also liked Anthropologie 15-20 years ago. I used to find their dresses stylish and unique. Over the years, I shifted more to online shopping and purchased less from them because they shipped from the US via DHL and the duties+fees were simply too high. The white button-down shirt with the golden retriever looks really cute! I would probably like it even more if the print were smaller. Have a happy Friday!

    1. Hi Karen! Right?! So unique. I loved their clothes back in the day. The golden retriever button down reminded me of those whimsical pieces I used to love, but I feel like it's still missing something.

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 ...

Fit Review Friday! Allbirds Tree Glider

  Hi everyone! I'm posting from New Orleans. I'm hitting up a Lululemon while I'm here. I always like to visit other Lululemon stores when I'm traveling. I was planning on having an Aviator Nation review for you guys but Hurricane Helene threw my plans out the window. So I will try and have it up when I get back to Atlanta. In the meantime, here's an Allbirds review.  For reference my street size is 5.5. I'm usually a 5.5 in Allbirds, but for the Tree Gliders they run large. I took these in a size 5.
