Fit Review! Athleta Haul Part 2 - Advantage Sweater, Retroterry Crewneck Sweatshirt, Transcend Stash Straight Leg Pant

  Is it Monday already? Don't know how the weekends just go by so fast and yes, I know I need a haircut. I'm trying to grow it out but I'm stuck in this weird stage. 😅 I am not sure I have enough patience to wait a few more months before it starts looking like a cute pixie cut. This is part two of my Athleta haul. Part three will be up for fit review Friday!  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. Advantage Sweater Damask Mauve Size XS also wearing On The Fly Crop (old) I have been looking for some cardigans for spring and summer to wear to the office. The  Advantage Sweater  checks all the boxes. It's soft and comfortable. The fabric is lightweight and silky but a little nit on the fragile side. The front of the sweater has a perforated stripe along the shoulder that has the potential to snag. Damask Mauve is a pretty plum that works well with my gray On The Fly Crop. I act

Fit Review! Vuori Halo Performance Hoodie 2.0 vs Aviator Nation 5 Stripe Hoodie

  How is 2023 treating everyone so far? I'm doing great on my no buy but at the same time it's only 8 days in. 😆 Although, I admit the 60% off Naked Cashmere sale is very tempting. I'm considering a couple of shackets. And in case anyone is wondering I do have a bunch of reviews lined up from purchases made in December so I should be good for at least a month, if not more. I am anxiously waiting to see what Lunar New Year items we'll get from Tuesday's drop. Today's review is a comparison between Vuori's updated Halo Performance Hoodie versus Aviator Nation's 5 Stripe Hoodie. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XS in Vuori and Aviator Nation. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon and size PXS in Athleta. Vuori Halo Performance Hoodie 2.0 Cosmo Heather Size XS I was interested to see how the updated version of the Performance hoodie compared to the original. I liked the original Performance Hoodie but at times I wish the sleev

Fit Review! Vuori Cozy Sherpa Jacket vs Lululemon Cinchable Fleece Zip-Up

  Happy hump day! This is a middle of the week fit review since I'm expecting another drop on Christmas Eve. I'll be around to cover it. Will we finally get some sparkly, special edition, holiday items? One can only hope.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and size XS in Vuori. Cinchable Fleece Zip-Up White Opal Size 4 This jacket did pique my interest when it was first released. It wasn't until Andrea suggested I give it a try that made me take the plunge. After reading some reviews I decided to go with my regular size 4. However, once I tried it on, I think this was one of those instances where I should have sized down. The arms are a little too baggy and the fleece makes it look extra voluminous. It looks just too wide and boxy on my petite frame. The fleece itself is plush and thick, but I wish it was softer. I went with White Opal since I'm very much into winter whites this year. The sleeves are long and I thin

Fit Review! Brushed Softstreme Ribbed 1/2 Zip & Pranayama Restore Wrap

  Happy Monday! I'm still very much into winter whites at the moment. I wore the  Brushed Softstreme Ribbed 1/2 Zip in White Opal  with the Brushed Softstreme Split-Hem HR Crop in Natural Ivory  and Athleta's Westbound Sherpa Jacket in Abalone Gray out to dinner with my husband and felt really pretty. 😊 I really should have made him take a photo! Next time.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and size PXS in Athleta. Brushed Softstreme Ribbed 1/2 Zip White Opal Size 4 As most of you know, I'm a huge fan of Softstreme, so to no one's surprise, I love this top. I already wore it a couple of times. It's just so soft and easy to wear. I purchased my usual size 4 in Lululemon tops and find it to be true to size. It's loose but not oversized. Casual, but not sloppy. The length is cropped but I didn't find it to show any skin even with my arms raised up with my Venice Joggers. It does pair well with high-rise pants. Howev
