Gap + Old Navy Reviews

After just posting on bottoms here, I actually picked up a few more pairs of pants from Gap and Old Navy's sales. I've been wanting to try Gap's petite 1969 legging jeans for a while since I hear they're great for petites and I do have to say the length is acceptable without tailoring but they're unfortunately going back because there's too much space around the hips for me. It's also important to note though that only these in the washed ink color fit well; I also purchased them in santa cruz blue and black but they unfortunately didn't fit as snugly. I already know Old Navy's Rockstar pants fit well on me and the petite Rockstar Twill Cargos in Olive Camoflauge caught my eye because of the cute print. After trying them on, I loved how comfy they are but wasn't sure if I should keep these or not since I can't see myself wearing them too often but A convinced me to keep them to wear with white shirts in the Spring/Summer. :)

When also popping in to the Gap store to make some returns, I spotted this cute sweater in the girls section and picked it up online with a promo code in size 8 (M), which I'm trying on below:

Sweater: Gap Girls Cardigan Sweater. Top: Banana Republic. Pants: 7 For All Mankind. Boots: Tory Burch 'Jaden' Boot.
 It looks like the sweater is sold out online now but you can probably pick one up in stores!

Leaving you with the fortune cookie quote, "When weaving nets, all threads count."

February Haul + Breakfast Bagel Strata Recipe

Image
The very last item I picked up from H&M that broke the buy and return cycle was a $2 striped tee that I thought would be a nice basic to have - I can't wait until the day I can have a bigger closet so I can actually see all the pieces I own - I might end up finding a few more basic stripes tees but when I picked it up, I didn't think I had one. :) I was browsing Insta Stories and came across some cute Target finds so made a large purchase at 3AM when I was up from baby B: Left: Denim Trucker Jacket in XS Light Acid Wash .

Hermes Toolbox 20 Review!

Image
A long time ago, I used to covet the Hermes Birkin bag, as I'm sure many have since it's so elusive. Since then, I switched over to pine after the Hermes Kelly bag instead, after I saw it on Wendy Nguyen from Wendy's Lookbook here . She's a fellow petite and it just looked so nice on her! Over time though, and especially after baby A, I see how such a bag is definitely not practical for me and if I were to spend a small fortune on a bag, I'd want one that I would actually use more often. The Kelly has a thin strap and is quite structured, which is what I like about it, but in reality is too classy for my weekends. It wasn't until I went to Athens, posted about here , that I tried on the Hermes Toolbox 20 and fell for it. It was in a beautiful royal blue color but I already have a Celine in that same color (seen here ) but that bright color and how it hung on me were the reasons I really liked it so much. I realized I wouldn't love the bag in a beige or deep

Canada Goose: Fusion Fit Reviews

Image
I'm finally done with exhausting all the options of Canada Goose coats and have to say that the Fusion Fit is definitely made to perfectly fit petites. Out of the three that I tried on, the Rossclair , Shelburne , and Trillium , they all have the perfect sleeve length but the hoods are all still too big in proportion and cover my whole face when worn. The Canada Goose Rossclair Parka Fusion Fit definitely fits much better than the normal Rossclair as shown here . I still like this Military Green color the best along with Black and like these large buttons better than the small loop ones on the Kensington but still prefer the ease of snap buttons to these. Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit in XXS Graphite The Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit is the only one of the three that does not have an adjustable bungee cord at the inner waist so the shape of this one is much more boxy. The sleeves of this one are also a bit longer than the others, though still much be
