Review! Shinola Runwell Satchel

  I've been eyeing Shinola's bags and when the Runwell Satchel went on sale in nubuck, I decided to pull the trigger. The Runwell Satchel reminds me of old school travel bag.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. Check out my video to see what fits! Shinola Runwell Satchel Nubuck Merlot This is a large sized bag. You can carry it by the top handle or use the strap for shoulder or crossbody wear. The strap is removable which is really nice because I do think for the size and weight of this bag, that the strap is on the thin side. I would want a thicker strap.  I do love how this bag pops against a neutral colored outfit. The merlot is so rich in color. It also looks velvety which really draws the eye.  Let's take a closer look at the details. Shinola Runwell Satchel Nubuck Merlot Shinola really pays attention to detail and I love how classic their designs are. When I first took this bag out of the box I was surprised at how soft the nubuck feels. It feels vel...

Fit Review Friday! Athleta Form Knit Full Zip, Form Knit Crew Sweatshirt, Sunday Rib Dolman Top, Sunday Rib High Rise Pant

  Happy Friday! Finally a proper Fit Review Friday. I haven't been to an Athleta store in so long, that there were tons of new items for me to try. I mainly focused on their Form Knit and Sunday Rib collection. For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. I typically wear size PXS in Athleta. I also wear size 4/6 and XS/S in Lululemon. Form Knit Full Zip Gray Heather Size XXS I was very interested in their Form Knit full zip hoodie. The fabric feels soft, yet structured. It's somewhat on the thicker side, and feels high quality. Fit is very oversized. I'm wearing size XXS and it's still really big on me. It does come in petite sizing, but the smallest size is Petite XS. I think I may be sized out in this hoodie. 😔 It's currently on sale for 30% off.  I love the double zipper. Form Knit Crew Sweatshirt Truffle Size XS Next we have the crew sweatshirt in Form Knit and it has a side zipper detail. I'm wearing size XS and I think this has a more flattering cut th...

New Releases Week of February 17th 2026

Happy Lunar New Year! It's the year of the Fire Horse which means this can be a very chaotic and intense year. Horse year has a lot of energy and to tame it down a notch I've been told to neutralize the choas by wearing earth tones; browns, greens, neutrals. 😮 Has anyone else heard this?  Back to today's post. I'm really having a hard time finding items worthy to post about from Lululemon's drop. This is the second week in a row where I am really struggling!  Steady State Superloft Jogger Coconut Ivory Oversized Cocoon Rain Coat Walnut Crunch Steady State OS Pullover Stripe True Navy New From Athleta Stellar Trench Slate Always Ready Jumpsuit Black Move With East Off The Shoulder Top Black (This looks so comfy.) Seasoft Full Zip Zephyr (Not sure if I missed this, but I think it's new. Would be interested to try this on.) Vuori Halo Modern Full Zip Hoodie $78 (Not new, but I do love this hoodie and it's on sale!) Okay story time.  I have been waiting for thi...

Shopping At Avalon! My First Purchase of the Year Goes to Banana Republic!

  I can't believe I haven't been to Avalon in nearly two months. I have missed walking around and going into all the stores. Before I start this fit review, as I'm walking I could not believe my eyes when I saw there's going to be a Vuori store opening up soon! 😍 Expect more fit reviews from Vuori coming your way. Dreams do come true. 😂 I am too excited for this! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. For Anthropologie I usually fit XS or XXS. Banana Republic I usually choose XS or PXS. I also wear size PXS in Athleta and size 4/6 or XS/S in Lululemon. Anthropologie The Goldie Crewneck Cashmere Sweater Light Rosewood Size XS This cashmere sweater feels super soft. Could not believe how soft this felt. They only had size XS for me to try and it's too big. It is available online in petite sizing. It definitely runs large, I'm guessing I would need a Petite XXS. It's also has a boxy fit, but tucked in and I think it could look cute. I am wearing sweatp...
