Fit Review Friday! Athleta Uptempo Short Hoodie and Brooklyn Wide Leg Crop Pant

Happy Friday! Before we get into the fit review, first I have to apologize to all my Canadian readers and anyone who doesn't have Athleta available to them. I feel really bad because Athleta is totally killing it this year. I normally prefer Lululemon but Athleta has been reeling me in. I do have some good Lululemon reviews coming up! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. For Athleta this translates to XXS/XS in tops and 0P in bottoms. Uptempo Short Hoodie  Comet Gray Size XS I really really love this hoodie. The brushed fabric is super soft. It's cropped but not too short. The cut is boxy, but I still feel like it gives me some shape because of how the fabric drapes. I find this to be very flattering even on petites. The color comet gray is a vert pretty lilac with gray undertones. I think it's definitely the best color out of all of them. The Norwegian gray is also really nice. This is a thin ligh

Upload! June 16th 2020

What do you guys think of tonight's upload? Lots of new goodies. I'm liking the  Sights Seen Jacket  in iced iris and the  Sculpt Tank Cropped . I wish the  Align Jogger 28" Track Stripe Graphite Gray Diamond Dye  came in a short length for us petites. I need something like 19" for it to work. Let me know if there's anything you would like to see a review of and I'll try and make it happen! Did you pick anything up? Let me know! Align Jogger 28" Track Stripe Graphite Gray Diamond Dye (I wish these were petite friendly, I think these are really cool! I hope they do something similar to this in the On The Fly Jogger Crop.) Essential Tank Pleated Azalea Pink Free To Be Tank Everlux Midnight Orchid Twist Around 2-in-1 Tank Black (I think this is very nice looking. Pricey though.) Shift In Time Jumpsuit Black All Yours Boyfriend Tank Black/White (I like the casual feel and simplicity of this tank.) Full Day Ahead Tank

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
