Fit Review Friday! Lululemon Softstreme HR Short 4", Softstreme Full Zip Hoodie, Softstreme Straight Leg Cropped Pant

  Happy Friday! It's also officially summer! Even though it is very warm out, I still like to wear my Softstreme pieces when I'm at the office and there's nothing but free AC all day long. 😅 Which is why I couldn't resist placing my order for three new pieces in Taupetastic! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and 4/6 in Lululemon bottoms. I like to size up for their pants. Softstreme High Rise Short 4" Taupetastic  Size 6 This is my second pair of Softstreme High Rise Short. My first pair was black and I did wear them quite often, so I decided to get a second pair. These are super comfortable, especially when you size up. I'm at the age where I do not like tight clothing anymore. 😌 I still think these look flattering even in a casual fit. Oh,  I should mention I was working with very tricky lighting when I took these photos. They look more pink than they should. But I assure you the color is the most beauti...

New Releases Week of June 18th 2024

Very light drop today from Lululemon! Not much interests me except for the new  Everywhere Crossbody Bag  in Rose Blush. I'm way more excited for Athleta's new Smoky Rose color.

Fit Review! Mother Petites The Lil Mid Rise Dazzler Ankle & Why I Returned Good American Jeans

  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Before I get into my review on my new Mother jeans, I initially wanted to do a comparison review with Good American, but they arrived with a giant rip at the crotch all the way down to mid thigh. The tear was about the size of my hand, I kid you not. 😳 I did order two pairs and the second pair arrived intact, but they didn't fit and I ordered a size 4. I was able to get them on, but it was too tight in the waist and they were high rise on me, even though the description stated they were mid rise. I did not like them at all. Luckily Good American did not have an issue with me returning the damaged pair. They actually told me not to send them back. I am shipping them to my friend who is a seamstress and I told her she can try and patch it up or maybe she can use it as parts.  I could not believe it when I pulled them out of the bag. 😲 Mother denim it is.

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Essential Tee, Retreat Linen Mid Rise Short, Retreat Linen Top

Happy Friday! How is everyone doing? It's so hot here right now. I'm trying to keep cool when I go outside and it's a challenge. Wearing linen definitely helps and I'm so glad to have found some more pieces from Athleta. They're also having a 40% off summer styles right now and all of three pieces in my review are part of the sale. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size Petite XS in Athleta. I also wear size 4/6 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. Essential Tee Pyrite Size XS (40% off - $27!) Pyrite reminds me of Lululemon's Taupetastic. It is slowly becoming one of my favorite colors. The Essential tee is a medium weight cotton tee that's very soft. It's a relaxed fit that's so comfortable and easy to wear. I have worn it to the office underneath a cardigan as well as on the weekends with shorts.  also wearing: Retreat Linen Mid Rise Short  Pyrite Size XS The length of the tee hits my high hip and slightly longer in the bac...
