Fit Review! Lululemon French Terry Cropped Full Zip Hoodie and French Terry Mid Rise Short 3.5 inch Plus My Coach Collection

 Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I stopped by Lululemon to see if they had the French Terry Cropped Full Zip for me to try-on and not only did they have it, they also had the matching shorts too!

For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4/6 and XS/S in Lululemon tops and bottoms. I also wear size PXS in Athleta. 

I'm kind of digging matching sets lately. Downtown Tan is a great neutral for summer. The French Terry feels soft to the touch, it's weighty, but it doesn't drape well. There's some stiffness to the fabric which I don't love. Maybe it would soften up over time, but for a hoodie I would prefer it to be soft from the start. 


I'm wearing size XS and it does feel cropped because the waist is tight. When I zipped up the hoodie I felt like I was wearing a corset. 😆 Leaving the hoodie open makes it look a little sloppy because the sides automatically pull back. 

French Terry Mid-Rise Short 3.5" Downtown Tan Size XS


As for the French Terry Mid-Rise Short, I'm wearing size XS and it runs slightly large. I don't think I would be able to fit into the XXS, but I was pleasantly surprised that I could roll the waistband down and it didn't feel snug at all. I'm not sure if this is because they're mid-rise instead of high-rise. But the waistband is very forgiving. The thigh opening is way bigger than I need it to be and they flared out slightly. That said, I think these shorts would be great for lounge or for the beach. 


That is it for me! I hope you all have a wonderful start to a brand new week. If you have nine minutes to spare, please check out my Coach collection video and find out why I sold my two Empire bags!

    Thank you for the review of that hoodie! I can safely cross that off my list now :) If the fabric is stiff, that's a deal-breaker for me. I like the color though!

      Hi Lola! Compared to my Vuori French Terry which is super soft, Lulu's version is much stiffer.

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  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...

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  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...

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. ...
