Fit Review Friday! Athleta Store Try Ons! Canopy Wrap in Nirvana, Tugga Long Sherpa Jacket, Takin' It Easy Jogger

Happy Friday everyone! I'm pretty excited about this post. The Canopy Wrap in Nirvana is my first clothing purchase of the year/decade. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically wear a size XXS/PXS in Athleta. For Lululemon tops I usually wear a size 4.  Canopy Wrap in Nirvana Mineral Brown Size XXS I've gotta say, Athleta has some really nice wraps. The Harmony Wrap  I purchased over the summer is one of my favorites to wear on the weekends and it always makes me feel comfortable and happy. The Canopy Wrap  is super soft. It is on the thin side, but keeps you warm without the bulkiness. The sleeves are long but I didn't find the look to be unflattering. I love that this wrap also has side pockets! The length is long and hits my knees.  Pockets for the win! This color is called mineral brown, but it looks more like a deep mauve to me. It's very pretty and feminine. I don't usually go for brown based coors, but this one

Upload! Lunar New Year Jan 21, 2020

The Lunar New Year Upload is something my mom would LOVE. She's a huge fan of the red and gold combo. If red is your color, this upload has got everything covered. For me, I'm not a big fan of red, never have been, but I do admire it. I think I have a couple of red bags and that's about it.  Nothing for me this week.

Fit Review! Scuba Sherpa Hoodie Long Reversible

Hi everyone! Today's review will cover the Reversible Scuba Sherpa Hoodie  in heathered spanish oak.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops. Here I am wearing a size 0.  Reversible Scuba Sherpa Hoodie  Size 0 Most reviews I read said the hoodie runs large, so I sized down to a size 0 when normally I'm a size 4. Sometimes a size 2. The size 0 fit overall in the body. It was still loose in the chest and arms but it is the style for this kind of jacket. As usual, the sleeves were much too long on me. The sherpa itself felt soft to touch.   The main issue I had with this jacket is the length. It hit a few inches above my knee and the wide band at the hem tapers in which makes it feel tight. I would have preferred if the jacket ended where the band begins. I think that would have been a better length. I also have hips which doesn't make it flattering from the back.  For me, I wasn't a fan
