Fit Review Friday! Athleta Stronger Hoodie in Petite XS vs XXS

Happy Friday everyone! Sooooooo happy the weekend is here. I have a short fit review today. It's a comparison between Athleta's Stronger Hoodie in PXS and XXS. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon Define Jackets and a size 2 in Scuba Hoodies. In Athleta this translates to a XXS or PXS. Last year I ordered the Stronger Hoodie in size XXS. They didn't have petite at the time and now they do! So of course I wanted to compare the two. Unfortunately I did not keep the XXS Stronger Hoodie from last year. I ended up returning it because I wasn't sure about the forest green color. Here are the photos I grabbed from last year's review . Stronger Hoodie  Forest Green XXS Stronger Hoodie Cassis PXS Let's start by comparing how the two look from the front. Almost identical, right. The XXS looks to be a little more fitted in the waist. The length of the PXS looks just a smidge shorter in the front. Everything els

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Sculptek Skinny Jean + What's New

Happy Friday everyone! I can't believe it's already September. I'm looking forward to the long weekend. For those not in the US the first weekend in September is Labor Day weekend. September for me marks the beginning of fall and this means I'll be breaking out my cute fall clothes. Today I have for you Athleta's Sculptek Skinny Jean in dark wash . For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and wear a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms. In Athleta this translates to PXS or 2 petite. Athleta Skulptek Skinny Jean Dark Wash Size 2P I haven't bought a new pair of jeans in probably over a year. Honestly, I do not wear jeans because I just don't find them as comfortable as a pair of leggings. Seriously, nothing can beat the comfort of a pair of Align bottoms . When I saw Athleta's new Sculptek Jeans I decided to bite the bullet and try a pair. I ordered size 2P. The length on these is 27.5 inches. Since I'm only 4 feet 11, my inseam is 26 inches. I do have to cu

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Short Sleeve Criss Cross Dress, Zephyr Tee, Banana Republic Sloan Pant

Happy Friday!! Friday is the best day of the week. Why? Because I know Saturday and Sunday I can sleep in. Once it's Saturday, I'm already dreading Sunday. 😂 This week has been really crazy. Kitchen renovation is still ongoing. Demolition took place on Tuesday. The cabinets are 90% finished. Monday we have a vendor coming in to measure the counter. Then we have to wait about two weeks for the counter tops to be cut. After that we still have to do the backsplash. Then I'm debating on having the entire condo professionally cleaned. I really do not do well with all the dust that's flying around. My asthma starts up and takes weeks for it to go away.  Today is also my 2nd wedding anniversary! My husband sent flowers to my office and made all my female co workers jealous.  After work we went to IKEA to return some things. Check out this super long IKEA receipt. It's almost as tall as me! After that we headed over to one of our favorite restaurants

Happy Friday! Now that I've tried their petite sizing, I'm really impressed with Athleta lately.

High Rise Tropical Flow Chaturanga  Tight Size PXS I've had my eye on these Tropical Flow Chat Tights ever since I saw them in an email from Athleta earlier last month. I'm a sucker for gray and white combos and this one is really perfect for spring. I don't usually do tropical themes in my wardrobe and this is actually a first for me. It's not overly d
