New Releases Week of August 12th 2025

Lots of new offerings today! Very intrigued by the Scuba Waffle collection. I used to have a waffle hoodie from Splendid probably 15 years ago that I wore to shreds. I have not found a nice waffle hoodie since to replace it. I wonder if Lululemon might be the one? Banana Republic has a pair of pants that also caught my eye, it's very petite friendly and I will order it to try. Last but not least, new fall bags are tempting me! I love suede bags for fall. Quince and J.Crew has some really nice ones for their price point. And of course we can't leave out Coach, jumping on the worn effect that's very popular right now. Let me know what you think!

(Waffle? I am intrugued. I hope it is smooth on the inside.)

(New color, very lovely green.)


(Why does this have to be cropped? 😒)

(I actually like this but it's $148. 😓)


(This looks like a super dark purple to me, but it might as well be black?)






(Interesting, but they almost look like boxers at a glance.)

  2. Thank you for showing all these picks. I find them far more interesting and tempting than the Lululemon stuff.

    1. Should I demote Lululemon from the opening act? 😅

  3. The waffle looks so cute but the price! I have a lot of waffle from Aritzia. I like their waffle a lot and have it in pants and jacket and a tank. I haven't tried the waffleX material but their baby waffle and older waffle styles

    1. HI Janessa! I know, why is it so much more expensive? I'll have to check out the Aritzia waffle items.

  4. I asked the same question when I saw the Scuba Cropped Funnel-Neck Half Zip
    Waffle. "Why does it have to be cropped?" Then I saw the Crinkle Nylon Cinchable Jacket and scratched my head ...

    I was so tempted to get the On My Level Tote Bag in Crisp Stone Vapor Multi cos the print is pretty and I'm a sucker for greys. However, you mentioned in your review of the On My Level Tote Bag 19L Wash that the bag is huge and I know the 20L wouldn't work for me. I wish this bag comes in 10L. :(

    I'm seeing barrel pants everywhere but I'll have to grow at least 5 more inches to look good in them! :D

    1. Hi Andrea! I had to look up the jacket and laughed.

      I agree with you, the 19L and 20L is so big. I wish it would be released in a medium size. Even a 12L would be fine.

      Agree, petites cannot pull off the barrel look. I know I can't. I would rather do wide leg over barrel any day.

  5. I'm pleasantly surprised the waffle items are lined with a soft lining on the inside! For the price, they most definitely should be. They are cute, but I will pass.

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. Definitely size down. I've partnered up with Allbirds! Super excited to share my  personal link . Click on  my link  for a 15% off.

I love how they use their shoe laces as the handle to carry the shoe box. It's really cool and love how sustainable they are. Even the packaging is well thought ou...
