Fit Review- Lululemon TechLoom Phantom Shoe Glow in the Dark

I was curious about these running shoes only because they were glow in the dark. I wanted to know how well they really glowed. I purchased a size 5 but I probably should have gotten the 5.5 to allow thicker socks. I could get these on with thin socks but they were really snug around the ankle and I can see how some might not even be able to get their foot all the way in if you have wide feet.  It wasn't very comfortable at all to wear. I also didn't really like how the shoe laces came out from the inside of the shoe.  TechLoom Phantom Shoe  Glow in the Dark It kind of didn't make sense and I couldn't figure out how to tie them properly. The instructions said you can thread them through the hole inside the shoe but I couldn't figure it out. The shoe laces are really long, so I couldn't see where you can tuck them inside the shoe? Didn't make any sense to me at all. And tying them from the inside made them sit uncomfortably on the

Werkshop Ode To The Moon Full Length & Crop

When I saw Werkshop's latest offering on Instagram I knew I had to have them. Ode To The Moon is one of my favorite releases from Werkshop. I ordered these in both the crop and full length to see which one I preferred. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms and size PXS in Athleta. Can I just start by saying how awesome this print is? I love that I'm wearing someone's artwork. Werkshop reminds me of this quote by Oscar Wilde, "One should either be a work of art or wear a work of art." I have quite a few posts on my blog on how Werkshop fits so I'll keep it short.  For crop length the waist hits slightly above my belly button and the waist band is tight but will conform to your body after a few wears. The length of the crops hit slightly below my calves and because I have thin legs they are just ever so slightly loose. I do wish they fit me better in the calves but it doesn't stop me from w

Nothing for me this week! I've already overspent as it is. I do really like the vintage grape in the Define Jacket. Reminds me of dusty mauve. I also like peony print, but I'm waiting for it in something else besides the Fast & Free Crop, although I may try them on just for the hell of it. Anything for you?

Fit Review! Down For A Run Jacket Black Cherry

I confess, I love this years version of Lululemon's Down For A Run Jacket . I looked at my review  of the original version from 2 years ago and the fit wasn't flattering at all. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear a size 4 in Define Jackets and a size 2 in Scuba Hoodies to give you an idea. The  Down For A Run Jacket  is one of those times I can size down. I went with black cherry because I'm not a fan of green in general so gator green was out. I'm too much of a klutz to buy white and I always try to stay away from black if at all possible, so that leaves me with black cherry. The color itself is a very dark purple almost like an eggplant color. I would say the photos are pretty accurate. Down For A Run Jacket  Size 2 Black Cherry The size 2 fits me well. It's not tight at all but I wouldn't be able to layer much underneath it. A long sleeve Swiftly should be fine but nothing thicker than that. The length of the coa
