Ahhhh another week, and finally a drop with some new designs but the prices have gone up so much that I'm just going to be extremely picky about what I buy these days. Now that my No-Buy month is officially over, my first purchase was not Lululemon, but from Banana Republic! 😳 I still have Twig on my brain, but I'm trying to patiently wait for it to go on sale. It's already February and spring is right around the corner for us who live in the south (I hope anyway, this winter has been really unusually cold) and I would probably get more use out of the AEJ, but part of me really wants the soft Wunder Puff vest! I could order both and just return one, but I am also afraid I might want to keep both which is a high possibility. I hate when I have to make decisions! So I am going to leave both in my cart, for now. If you were on the No-Buy challenge with me, have you bought anything yet?
I’m actually tempted to give the Effortless Jacket Evolve a try, Leslie! :D I like the adjustable cuffs, the slightly longer body length (had to size up in the AEJ which was a tad too cropped for my liking) and the simple design in the front. I’ll pull the trigger if a nice color comes out (Ashen Rose please!) but will have a hard time figuring which size to order.

Hi Andrea! I think you could probably wear XXXS to be honest. It looks like it runs big to me. None of the offered colors look very appealing. Ashen Rose would be nice!
DeleteI agree with Andrea. I used to buy the AEJ in size 2, but prefer the length of size 4. Ashen rose looks very pretty! If the City to trail jacket wasn't so expensive, I'd be tempted.
DeleteI love Burgundy Bay. It looks like nice saturated jewel tone. I'm not sure what I'd want or wear in it yet, but I agree that the rose gold zipper is combo on that define is a chef's kiss. I really like the valentine leggings. The polka dots with an occasional heart is very cute. I haven't tried the no line leggings, but I plan to give them a try. Just deciding on the color.
ReplyDeleteI have made a handful of purchases this week, a dress that I needed for a enchanted themed event, a blouse for a second event (with a fiesta theme, that was a tough one) and a pair of shoes. I'm trying to be much more mindful though. Do I really need it? (Probably not) Do I already have something similar? (Usually, yes lol) Am I just buying for the rush? For avoiding the rush, I've been making things sit in my cart and thinking it over before purchasing. Most of the time, I delete it out or decide to wait to see if it goes on sale.
Hi Stacy! I love Burgundy Bay too with the rose gold but I don't wear Define Jackets anymore. I would do it in a hoodie though.
DeleteI'm doing the same thing- no more impulse purchases for me. I add it to my cart and close out the window and try to forget about it. if I keep thinking about it even after a week or more, then maybe I pull the trigger. Or wait until it goes on sale.
I love Rulu bottoms, but why is "genie" the only style we get in forever??
ReplyDeleteYou would probably get more use of the AEJ, but I do love the WP Vest. That's a tough choice!
I did pretty well on my low-buy January and am trying to continue it as long as possible. I'm tempted by the Candy Cloud Swiftly LS Crop, but I know I would get more use out of the SS version. It's quickly selling out, but I'm trying not to get FOMO and just wait to see if the SS releases.
Hi LZ! Hah, is that style even popular? I have no idea anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if it hit WMTM.
DeleteYeah I am still town between the AEJ and the WP vest. Sigh.
Keep it up! I am also trying to delay my purchases as long as possible. The FOMO is getting to me less and less. If you can sit and wait for a week or two and let it simmer if you really want it or need it that badly.
