This made me laugh 😆 the shorts in contrast just look so funny with how long the shirt is lol

Hardly ever do dark colors but tis the season. Kinda wish I had added the polka dots. Wanted them more like inspo pic 2. How do you get them that mirror like shiny?! Should I have used a lighter brown?

I’ll live. I’m just not used to it 🥹 my usual are pinks & girly designs.

I randomly decided to go into Old Navy yesterday. Was surprised to find they had a lot of cute staples & basics. Perfect for layering. My fav ribbed crop tee is from A&F & they had ones that were nearly identical for much less. I def bought. They have cute cardigans, workwear & athleisure. The athleisure reminded me of ALO & dressy work pants that reminded me of Aritzia. Lots of matching lounge sets too.
Sadly being petite their pants never work for me. I’m a true size 23. I feel like their sizing runs big.

They were having a major sale. Saved $21 on my total.

Don’t sleep on Old Navy

These are such a good deal. I know they’ll be too long but I can cut them to be a raw hem 🙂‍↔️ yay or nay?

I don’t like the style of their current denim selection 🥲

Anyone have these they can model?

YESSS to cute girly nails 🎀🌸🫧 I like to do fun nails that make me happy. Like a little serotonin boost. Usually different variations of pinks/blues. Sometimes seasonal colors but still girly 😌

What I get: builder gel
Shape: short almond (I think lol?)

These jeans would have been perfect if they weren’t too long & came in short length. I had been searching for the perfect straight jeans for petite frames. Was so bummed I had to end up returning bc out of the 6 different jeans I ordered from diff brands…these were the best fitting.

Straight jeans are just hard in general for me. I just wanted one normal length pair. I find ankle length more flattering since I’m short (5’1). The wash & fit on these were so nice. I like real feel denim.

It just seems like the best things are always out of stock & then they never come back which is a real bummer.

Would love to see these brought back & offered in short length. They were flattering.

Please have your employees ship packages with more care 🫠 Your stuff is $$$. I get better packages from Amazon. My recent order came in 2 separate deliveries. Are you shipping from diff stores that have the items in stock? Jw. My snatch rib tank came in the standard pink garage mailer & sealed in clear plastic packaging. My white sleek scoop cami order came in an un-labeled basic mailer & just thrown in there without anything protecting it.
It was ofc dirty. I paid $28 for a dirty cami 🙃 Even if I’m washing it, that’s not the point. What if that was a stain? Not the 1st time either.

EDIT: It doesn’t have to be in plastic…Aritzia wraps things nicely in paper bag. If you’re really trying to reduce plastic there’s many other ways to wrap an item. Your pricing is the same as Aritzia for tanks & up there with higher end brands so I just expect a little better than things being thrown in a mailer.

Separate issue. How in the world do we access our account history on your website now? The tab is gone. I’m confused. I have no way to get to order history. Super weird…this is new. I was able to access it 3 weeks or so ago.

These are all patterns I’ve loved or bought from other places. Pics for inspo 👀🫶🏼
I love polka dot or gingham pattern. How cute would it be to make a light pink or baby blue gingham in the soft active line. Tube tops & the booty shorts.
Navy or light blue polka dots would be so cute too.

I ordered this homestretch rib cami in milkshake pink 2 weeks ago. I got another bc they were such a good deal at $10.99 🙌🏼 I love the little feminine details & they’re really flattering on. This lemonade color is really pretty. 5’1 & ordered XS.

I also got a the perfect fit crew in milkshake pink 🙂‍↕️ I’m glad I ordered a small & my usual size XS. Definitely size up in these if you don’t want it fitted 🩷

I often wonder if those who design packaging design them to mess with us. Nothing like opening a new pack of socks & cutting them from those plastic t shaped fasteners all socks are attached with & almost ruining them. On each end & looped around on a hanger wrapped around a plastic sleeve is excessive. See packaging examples.

They make the plastic fasteners so short it disappears down into the sock 🫠 make it just short enough you can’t grab hold of it. Trying to pull it out it catches on the sock thread & I had to perform delicate surgery to remove without a huge snag 🙂‍↕️

Wore my mega zip today 🎀☁️ Some were asking how I would style. I call this casual cute & comfy style 💁🏼‍♀️ Baby tee, bootcut leggings & Jordan low sneaks. She’s so cozy. Like a blanket.

I don’t mind how big it is. I did try zipping & tucking under but no. It doesn’t stay lol. It looks better unzipped.

I may or may not have ordered a crewneck in milkshake pink 👀😅 I just really love this color.

Btw I’m 5’1 & got XS. Size down if you don’t like MEGA oversized lol.

I’ve always had clear skin. Like literally my whole life. Never had acne. Would maybe get a few zits that’s it. A few years ago I started getting these red dry patches. I’m 38 now. Sometimes it will itch & sometimes there’s bumps & fluid that crusts too. I have tried everything to solve. Went back to basics. Literally using La roche gentle cleanser & avene cicalphate for over a month. I honestly don’t know if it’s helping or worsening. I forgot I had some hydrocortisone cream & mixed a tiny bit with my moisturizer. I feel like it calmed a bit. Or if I use salicylic acid serum. But nothing has ever eradicated it & i literally cannot figure out what the hell caused it.

I do have a weird story & idk if it’s related but it tracks during same time. So I bought vital proteins Collagen. I took it for years. This one packaging I got from Walmart all the containers were the same so thought nothing of it. The plastic outer seal thing removed, then inner foil lid seal had tiny little vent holes. Ok weird but I only thought of it after my skin did this. Started trying to track down what had changed. I went back to Walmart to even film that ALL on the shelf were this way so I didn’t know any better. Reported to FTC. I just found it weird like where did the packaging get tampered & why would anyone do this. Idk it’s the ONLY thing I can literally think of 😭

I do get eczema flare ups (just really itchy skin, no rash) if I eat certain foods. Mostly eggs so had to cut those out 🥲

I’m desperate. I feel so self conscious now. Makeup covers but I just feel so ugly & I’ve never dealt with this. It’s definitely affecting my self esteem 🥹
I don’t have health insurance bc it was way too expensive. I’ve already gone down to basics with skincare. It could be rosacea, eczema or sebhorrheic dermatitis from googling. But honestly I have no idea. I’m clearly treating it wrong/not solving the underlying issue. I cut out most sugar (or try) I’m not perfect.

ISO PA 🥹 I desperately want another. Always regret selling mine but was going through tough times. It was such a versatile bag. Perfect size. Mine was brand new too. Discontinued style. I just can’t justify that price of such a small bag. I love they added a little zipper pocket. I don’t even want that chain which prob adds at least a few hundred on that price 😐 I hate chained bags personally. They just get scratched & clink & clank.

Sigh…just reminiscing & daydreaming 😂

Girlies helpppp 🙏🏻 Do I buy my normal size or size down in the SnatchRib Scoop Tank? I buy XS in the sleek scoop cami but obvi this material is stretchier/ribbed.
I’m 5’1 & petite. Smaller chest/rib cage (30 band size).

I’m torn. I see it modeled in both but like what’s the size difference? I want it fitted.

My favorite long sleeve shirt. I think the name changed & now it’s “baretouch crewneck”. I wanted to order in white but it’s out of stock. Can you drop a light Heather gray (spring grey you called it), pink or light yellow? 👀 I know it’s fall soon but I’m a spring color girl year round & it’s still hot in NC in the fall.

Also the Estelle longline tees. Now called “baretouch crewneck tee”. Need more color options. Would love a light Heather gray, white, pink & light yellow.

PS: Parfait pink & begonia pink were the cutest colors.

If anyone owns this tee lmk how it fits & the quality. Worth it or pass? Bonus if you have a photo wearing. Reviews are so mixed. I still don’t know if I need to size up or buy my true size. I love a good baby tee. I’m short tho & most crop/baby tees are normal length on me lol.

5’1 petite frame

I got my mega zip - milkshake pink last Friday. Ordered size XS. I’m 5’1 & petite. I knew it was oversized but…is this too big? Or look bad? 😩 I also got a lil too excited & took the tag off before trying on, so I’m assuming i can’t exchange now anyway? I def could have gone down a size. So maybe this will be helpful for someone else lol.

Do these shrink up at all when washed/dried? Now I feel like I need the reg size zip up lol. It’s def cozy. I just want everything in this color.

Also a fun discovery…my top I was wearing from Garage is a near perfect color match 💕 Garage parfait pink 🤝🏼 Aritzia milkshake pink. Monochromatic looks cute.

A fun discovery yesterday wearing one of my fav tops from Garage. Parfait Pink is pretty much an exact match to Aritzia Milkshake Pink 🎀 Just thought I’d share!

Garage please bring back Parfait Pink & Begonia Pink 🙏🏻 I get it’s almost fall but I’m a pink buyer all year round. Didn’t used to buy colors at all…I started embracing a more soft feminine style. I just wear things that make me happy/look good & don’t follow trends.

You should also bring back the UltraFleece Full Zip Hoodie in these 2 color ways 👀 Feel free to add me to your design team 😄 I’m also obsessed with delicate florals/soft feminine patterns. Lace, little bows, pointelle fabric, lace, micro ribbed etc.

I just have to share how good the basics & athleisure are. I re-discovered Garage last year & I’ve been adding to my collection ever since lol 🙃 love you can mix & match. Everything fits so well & makes you snatched 👌🏼 I’m a sucker for quality athleisure & basics. I will say prices are getting a bit steep tho 🥲 they used to be more affordable.

I love the zip up but I will note it does shed lots of fuzzies & fleece balls up on the inside after washing. But it’s super comfy. I just try not to wash it a lot. This particular grey is my favorite grey. You can pair with anything.

I hope they bring back more pinks even tho fall is coming🤞🏼 I will buy pinks no matter what time of year. It’s so hard to find cute girly colors for gym clothes. I personally love feminine patterns & colors.

Also I tried the relaxed straight jeans & would have LOVED if they came in short. I’m 5’1 so they were way too long. I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect straight jeans. I’m usually an ankle length jeans girl bc they look cuter with sneakers & short ppl IMO.

What are your favorite staples? So I can add to my list 🤪
