Fit Review! Align Wide Leg Crop 23

Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a nice weekend. I have a quick little fit review for you today. I received the Align Wide Leg Crop 23" in the mail on Friday and I picked black over violet verbena even though I was very tempted by the pretty lilac shade.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms.  Align Wide Leg Crop 23" Black Size 4 First thing- I found this to be true to size. I'm usually a size 4 in my Align Crops and these fit the same. The fabric is the same buttery soft nulu that we all love. I think these are very petite friendly given the 23" length and they look very stylish and classy. The width of the pant leg isn't overly wide and overwhelming which I really like. They are cut pretty straight from the thigh.  One thing I wasn't a huge fan of is the super high rise. These almost reach my lower rib. It's that high. I find it a little uncomfortable with how high these ar

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Anguilla Button Up and Utility Crop Button Up

Happy Friday! We survived another week. I have an interesting fit review for you today. I say interesting because I'm still not totally sure how I feel about one of the items. I may leave it up to your comments to decide if I keep it or not! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops. For Athleta this translates to PXS or XXS/XS depending on the cut and style. Anguilla Button Up Chambray Blue Size PXS This button up is lightweight and soft. The color is a pretty light blue chambray. This would be really great for summer tied up in the front in a cute little knot. BUT- there is a pretty big but here, haha - the back completely flummoxed me. I think it's because I have a very short torso and decent sized hips. But with the front tied up, the back does not lay right. This may be one of those tops that just feels comfortable and looks cute from the front. The back might just have to be tucked in. I'm not really sur

What do you think about the  Aligned Angles Long Sleeve Nulu  top? I think it's interesting, but definitely not for me. I like the  Ease Of It All Dress  but I know it would drag all over the floor. Has anyone ever tried hemming a dress similar to the one below? I wonder if this is something I should look into. I did order the  Align Wide Leg Crop  but worried about it being super high rise. I'm prepared that I may not like it. I'm also digging the cherry tint color. Anything for you?

Fit Review! Rogue Renegade Zip Hoodie

Super excited about this fit review. I've been eyeing the  Rogue Renegade Zip Hoodie  ever since it was uploaded. I really wanted the alpine white over the black, but by the time I was ready to pull the trigger the alpine white was sold out in my size. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops.  Rogue Renegade Zip Hoodie Black Size 4 This is one of those hoodies where you can easily size down if you want to. I stuck with my regular size because of the crop length. I didn't want it any shorter than where it falls on me. It hits right underneath my belly button. If you have a really long torso, it will be even more cropped.  There is some creasing from being folded during shipment which I hope will come out. The hoodie is oversized and I do like the collar when zipped all the way up. I think this is a super cute hoodie. Very flattering in that oversized look. The sleeve length is long but not too long th

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Sundown Sweatshirt and Salutation Jogger

Happy Friday! I have another Athleta review. I loved Lululemon's Warm Down Crew so much that I decided to give Athleta's  Sundown Sweatshirt a try. It gets amazing reviews.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. For Athleta this usually translates to size PXS or Petite 0. Sundown Sweatshirt Cascadia Violet Size Petite Small For this particular sweatshirt I decided to size up for a more oversized look. If you want a more fitted look I would stick to your usual size. First thing I noticed, the cascadia violet is more pink than purple to me, so I am a little disappointed in the color.  The fabric is 98% cotton and 2% polyester. I was expecting this sweatshirt to be softer based on all the reviews. Sadly it wasn't as soft as I hoped or maybe I'm just super spoiled by Lululemon's Warm Down Crew. I mean seriously, that sweatshirt is my favorite. I wish I bought more colors. This
