Fit Review Friday! Athleta Organic Daily Camo Crew, Uptempo Hoodie, Mindset Sweatshirt

Happy Friday everybody! Today we have a fitting room review from Athleta. Shopping in person is still a really strange thing for me. Masks at all times and it is hard trying to social distance from other customers while browsing. I guess this is the new normal for now!  For reference I am 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically size 4 in Lululemon and this translates to size XS/PXS in Athleta. Organic Daily Camo Crew Laurel Olive Size XS I'm wearing size XS in the  Organic Daily Camo Crew  and this is a semi-fitted tee. I definitely like the fit and found it to be flattering. The length is just a tiny bit too long on my petite torso, but otherwise I liked this a lot. I may want to try this in the petite size. Athleta stores do not carry a petite section, unfortunately. I wish they would! This is a thin t-shirt made of organic cotton which is why it is priced at $49. Definitely a little pricey even for organic cotton in my opinion. The color laurel olive is a nice subtle version of cam

Fit Review Friday! Alo Yoga Foxy Sherpa Jacket in Pale Mauve!

Happy Friday!!! I don't know why I'm super excited for the weekend, I guess it's been a long week for me.  Do you guys remember when I reviewed this jacket last year  in dove gray? I ended up returning it and to be honest it was one of those jackets I kept thinking about. So when I saw Alo Yoga decided to release it in pale mauve this year, I just had to try it again. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops.  Alo Yoga Foxy Sherpa Jacket Pale Mauve Size XS I'm wearing size XS and while it's still a generous fit, I am kind of digging the look, maybe because the oversized look is very in this year. In the photos, the bottom band doesn't quite lay smooth, and that's because I didn't realize I didn't pull the jacket up to flatten it out. I didn't have time to retake the photos. You can see it looks fine on the dove gray .  The hood is removable, but realize I never actually removed the hood when I had th

Fit Review Friday! Hotty Hot High Rise 2.5 inch & Align Jogger 28 inch

  Happy Friday! In case you missed this week's WMTM , I wrote up a quick post for all the newly added items. I'm reviewing a couple of bottoms today. One you've seen before and one is new. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms. Hotty Hot High Rise 2.5" Hype Stripe Raceway  Size 4 I decided to try the  Hotty Hot High Rise 2.5" Hype Stripe Raceway . I'm wearing my usual size 4. Not sure if it's the wrinkles combined with all the stripes but I didn't love this one as much as the cerulean blue  I purchased last month. Decided to return this one and glad I did because I ended up ordering the desert teal from this week's upload. 😆 Fit is true to size for me, just wasn't loving it. Next up we have the  Align Jogger 28" Heathered Black . I'm wearing my usual size 4. I normally wear a size 4 in my other Align bottoms and this also fits similar in sizing. I was curious to see if the full length vers

Fit Review Friday! Scuba Oversized 1/2 Zip Hoodie & Hooded Define Jacket Nulu Diamond Dye

Happy Friday! I also can't believe it's already October. I don't know how this year is flying by so quickly, but it is. In case you missed it, I posted up a WMTM update with the new Align Tank in Chambray .  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops. Scuba Oversized 1/2 Zip  Violet Verbena Size XS/S I was really excited to try the  Scuba Oversized 1/2 Zip  hoodie in violet verbena. It's currently sold out in this color, but the new heathered desert teal looks really nice too. This is definitely oversized, it's also very wide and boxy which I didn't love. The arms are very long and wide on my petite frame. I think the proportion of this hoodie is a little too overwhelming especially from certain angles.  This hits at the hip for me. The length is fine. The hood is very oversized as well. I think if they made this in a size smaller it may be more flattering for petites. The fabric is
