Fit Review! J.Crew Eloise Sweater Blazer

  Is it Monday already? Do you guys remember  J.Crew's Sophie Sweater Blazer I love so much I pretty much bought them in all the colors? It looks like J.Crew may be phasing it out and replacing it with the new  Eloise Sweater Blazer . I had to try it and see how it compares to the Sophie. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XXS or PXS in J.Crew. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops. Eloise Sweater Blazer Heather Walnut Size XXS The first thing I noticed is the thinner fabric. This may not be a bad thing because the Sophie Blazer is on the heavier side and more suitable for chilly temperatures. The  Eloise  may be a piece that's easier to wear all year round. The second thing I noticed right away are the longer sleeves. I actually have them cuffed up a couple of inches. This might be an improvement depending on your preference as the sleeves on the Sophie are 7/8 lengths. The collar has been updated with rounded lapels. As for the fit- it does

Fit Review Friday! Naked Cashmere Joni, Anita, Lilia

  Happy Friday! Fall is definitely in the air because I've been looking at Naked Cashmere's September Collection . Cozy sweaters and pullovers are going to be my work from home outfit for the next few months. My office was planning on re-opening after Labor Day, but with the Delta cases on the up tick, they decided to push it back till mid-October, but I think honestly, we won't be going back until next year.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. I wear size XS in Naked Cashmere. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops. Joni Storm Gray Size XS I actually purchased this Joni cashmere pullover hoodie in Sandy earlier this year and love it so much I decided I also needed to get it in Storm Gray. It's a light weight cashmere at 286 grams and feels super soft. I've purchased cashmere from J.Crew and Banana Republic and I can say that sometimes I have found their cashmere to be itchy which is weird because cashmere should not be itchy at all. I'm wearing size X

Upload! September 14th 2021

 Lots of fall items dropping in today's upload and with that, I guess short season is over. What do we think of the new  Align High-Rise 28" Botanical Bloom Anchor ? I kinda like the print but do not like the contrasting seams. Very pretty  Align T-Shirt Diamond Dye Lunar Rock True Navy  but as I recently learned, do not size up! Let me know if there is something you'd like to see a fit review of. So far, nothing for me this week! I placed a fairly large order from Athleta this week. They had their Friends & Family discount over the weekend. Will be posting more reviews shortly!

Fit Review! Align Waist Length Tank Top, Align Gathered Front Tank Top, Align T-Shirt, Align High-Rise Crop 17 inch

  Hi everybody! Here is the promised fit review that are mainly fit requests from you guys. The only item I chose here for myself is the  Align High-Rise Crop 17" Diamond Dye Lunar Rock True Navy . I really love Diamond Dye, and I'm pretty much a sucker for all the blues and purples. When I saw Ready to Rulu Jogger Crop in DD Lunar Rock True Navy I fell in love. Let's get to it! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms. My Lululemon bra size is 6.  Align High-Rise Crop 17" Diamond Dye Lunar Rock True Navy  Size 4 I've reviewed the  Align High-Rise Crop 17"  before and you can read a more in-depth review here . I love the fit because they actually hug my calves and there is zero gaping. If you're petite, these would be perfect for those with narrow calves. For those who are curious, below is a comparison picture between Diamond Dye Asphalt Gray True Navy and Lunar Rock True Navy. I think they are
