Fit Review! Aviator Nation 5 Stripe Hoodie

Happy October! Get ready for the rest of the year to fly by. I love October, it's my favorite month. Fall is here, the temperature is dropping, I get to wear my cute sweaters, the air is crisp, and if it gets chilly enough I'll soon be drinking hot chocolate. Of course there's Halloween and the start of the holiday season to look forward to.

This is my first Aviator Nation purchase in quite a while, I think it's been over a year. Aviator Nation hoodies are still my most worn hoodies, hands down. I am almost always wearing one around their hoodies around the house and now that it's cooler I'll get to wear them out. 

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

Aviator Nation did make a design change on their hoodie, there are no longer drawstrings. I'm honestly fine with that because I never did use the drawstrings and they would sometimes fall out in the wash and I could never figure out how to get them back in.



I'm wearing my usual size XS and I did notice the darker purple hoodie is slightly longer than my lavender hoodie below. Aviator Nation can be a inconsistent with their sizing, but generally their size XS suits me. Pricing is still ridiculous for a hoodie of this caliber but I only purchase when they're having a 40% off sale, which happens during the holidays. I purchased both of these hoodies during their Labor Day sale last month. I would expect them to have another sale coming up soon for the holidays.

Overall, they are still super soft and cozy, although I would say they are light to mid-weight hoodies. Perfect for transitional weather and for layering. That's it for me! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. 😊

    The sweatpants do have pockets. On the website it shows in the green ones.

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. ...
