Fit Review! Lululemon Cityverse Perforated Sneaker
Hope everyone who celebrated had a Happy Mother's Day weekend! I totally forgot because my parents came last weekend and we did all the celebrating then. 😅 I finally got around to try Lululemon's Perforated Sneaker. I've been looking for a white pair of sneakers for a while. Let's find out if these are keepers.
For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in sneakers including Allbirds, Lululemon, and On Running.
This color combo of Golden Sand, Black and White really caught my eye. It makes the plain white sneaker visually interesting. The white is very white, not going to lie, it crossed my mind as to how I would even be able to keep these clean since the care instructions say to spot clean only. This particular pair comes with an extra set of black laces to change up the look.
The out sole has small cups for better traction. I haven't tested these out in the rain so I can't say for sure how these would perform. Atlanta is in a severe draught right now. We're also on a burn ban. 😳
Visually, I think these sneakers look amazing. So the big question is, how do they fit and feel?
I have slightly wide feet and these fit fine. Length wise, I have s little extra wiggle room in the back. The collar lining comes up a little bit high for me on the sides, right near the ankle bone.
They feel a little stiff right out of the box, I would have to break these in to soften them up. These are not made of leather. Lululemon calls it leather-alternative. I would love to know exactly what that means, but the website does not go into anymore detail, much to my dismay.
I walked around my house with these on. They feel heavier than I expected on my feet. The back of the sneakers would slip a bit with each step. Despite having high hopes for these, I ended up returning them.
My favorite Lululemon shoes are still the Split Shift and Beyondfeel running shoes. So what's next? Should I try these ZenMode Mules? 😆
Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off - $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe. This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...
So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos. The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...
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. ...
