Fit Review Friday! Athleta Seasoft Short Smoky Rose vs Taupetastic

Happy Friday! Athleta's Smoky Rose (in Seasoft) is probably at the top of my favorite colors ever! I have Seasoft in parenthesis because it looks very different compared to the Pranayama Restore Wrap (it looks more brown than purple). That is a bummer because I was totally going to buy it in the wrap.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4/6 in Lululemon bottoms.
