Store Try Ons! Athleta Nirvana Wrap & Lucca Ombre Wrap

I managed to get to the store for some quick try ons at Athleta. They're having a sale right now and I have reward money to use there. I've been eyeing the Nirvana Wrap for a while. It gets great reviews and is beyond soft. I tried on the XS in a soft lilac. It's on sale for $69. Nirvana Wrap Size XS This wrap comes in petite as well, but Athleta does not carry petites in the stores. I really wish they would though! I think the XS fits fine, I could have probably fit the XXS as well. I think both sizes would have worked. One thing that I really wish this wrap had was pockets! It's great for lounging around or worn during the summer months. Next up I grabbed the Lucca Ombre Wrap off the racks to try on. It's a super fun oversized sweater. It's on sale right now for half off. I actually think this would be great for the office.  Lucca Ombre Wrap Size XXS The sleeves really poof out, but I think it works. Yet again there ar

WMTM Update!

In case you missed it and have some money to spend, I would say the best purchase you could make is the Pack It Down Jacket . It's been my go to whenever it's freezing in Atlanta. I'm kinda tempted by the  Sit In Lotus Sweater  for $69 too. I love that cocoa color. I'm trying to be good, even though I do have gift cards from Christmas! Did you pick anything up from the sale? Pack It Down Jacket  $139 Review here . Sit In Lotus Sweater $69 Breeze By LS Squad $69 Rest Less Pullover $69 Down For It All Jacket Dark Adobe   This didn't work out for me, but you can read my review here . Coast Hoodie $79 (I purchased this to try on, haven't written up a review yet, but I ultimately returned it because of the zipper. Other than that, it was a nice hoodie. For the sale price it's not bad.) Scuba Hoodie Light Cotton Fleece $79 (If you've been waiting for a true red, this is it) Coast Easy Wrap $99 Free To Be

Ivivva Rhythmic Tight!

 Happy Friday everyone! Hope everyone is having a great new year so far. So ever since Lululemon changed the inseam to the Align crops from 19" to 21" I haven't purchased any tights. Believe it or not those extra two inches really make a huge difference for my short inseam. Not that I really needed any new ones to begin with! Ever since I have found Ivivva's Set To Go Joggers , I've been looking at trying on more of their bottoms. When I saw Vivivva offered a version of Wunder Unders in herringbone I decided to give them a try. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms. For Ivivva I fit a size 12 or 14 depending on the style. Ivivva Rhythmic Tight Heathered Herringbone Black  Size 14 on sale for $44! I went with the size 14 after reading it is the equivalent to Lululemon's size 4. The fit is a little looser than a Wunder Under size 4 because there is little to no compression. It doesn't feel hugged an

Upload! January 8th 2019

Pretty underwhelming upload. Nothing for me this week. I really like the sunrise silhouette print and I don't have anything similar to that in my closet, but none of the items offered work for me except for the FTBW bra, but the print doesn't work as well on a small piece. It definitely needs to be a pair of tights or Speed Shorts, maybe? Anything for you? Travel The Distance Tunic Dark Chrome Free To Be Wild Bra Sunrise Silhouette (I really like this print on tights, but on the bra, it's kind of underwhelming.)  Starting Place Hoodie Garnet City Sleek Hoodie Dark Olive Suminagashi Run 1/2 Zip L ululemon Lab Ice Gray The Rain Is Calling Jacket II Black (I like the look of this jacket but hate the zipper.)

What's Your Goal for 2019?

Some of you may know that I keep all my purchases on a excel spreadsheet. For 2018, I spent a total of $2,026.47 on Lululemon. For Athleta I rang up at $1,173.78. The year before, I spent roughly $2700 on Lululemon and $1550 on Athleta. It looks like I'm buying less and less from both brands, which makes sense because my closet is already maxed out to capacity. It's very full. Often if I buy something I tend to sell something that I no longer wear.  For 2019 I really want to be more selective in my purchases. I want to see my combined purchases for Lululemon and Athleta to be under $2500 at the end of 2019. I want to focus on working out smarter, not harder. Which means I need to watch what I'm eating.  I want one of my purchases for 2019 to be Hermes scarf. I'm also toying with the idea of buying a Chanel card case. Do I really need this stuff? Nope. But I do enjoy beautiful things!  I also need to reorganize my closet. 2018 I amassed quite a numbe
