Fit Review|Black Grape Fast & Free 7/8 Tight, Love Crew *Expression, Low Key Tank and More

by Cristina

We are warming up to color! Two colors in store today in a combination I loved was this new sage green color *DKFR* paired with black grape. Such an awesome combination. 

Fast And Free 7/8 Tight Black Grape, Love Crew *Expression

These Fast & Free tights are must haves. So gorgeous on and so comfortable. I had a hard time taking them off to pay for them. They are definitely spendy but I’ve decided if they also come in cropped version I’m going to need them too. 

I didn’t want to like the expression tee just because it says ‘Vancouver’ on it and thats my home, but I liked the fit as well and I liked the combination of light blue lettering on the black tee.

Low Key Tank Size 10 and Size 8

I am typically a size 10 in everything but lately I’ve been floating between a 10 & an 8 depending on the style and cut. This is one of those times where I would easily size down to an 8. I really liked this tank a lot so I purchased the green in my size 10 because the store didn’t have an 8 in this color, but I think you can see from the grey Low Key Tank that the 8 really fits me better. I’ll hopefully order the 8 online tonight if it uploads. It’s very relaxed and loose fitting, and also long. You can see just how loose fitting it is from the side view.

Sun Setter Tank size 10

This is my usual size 10 but because of the nature of this material (nulux) and the tighter fit, I would feel more comfortable getting this in a size up. It’s not that it felt tight, it was just really clingy and the material shows every single lump and bump. These feels downright loose fitting compared to a Power Y because of the extra stretch. Unfortunately for me the built in bra isn’t supportive enough for me so I would need to double this up with a proper bra underneath. I will consider this tank for markdown, but it is nice.

Arise Cropped LS size 10

This is another item I would prefer in a size up. The overall fit is right, it’s just snug where it comes in at the waist, and it hits me at an unfortunate spot. I otherwise really liked this top a lot as a layering piece and I would definitely get it if it comes in a 12. In my store I only saw this up to a 10. I really liked the open neckline and the low cut back – it’s very ballerina inspired. 

Really unfortunate spot for this hemline on me.

Lulumum do you find the fast and free tights your tts? With all the slipping issues I feel like I should size down but I want to get the right size. I really love the fern print but I was so upset to find them so sheer even in my tts.

TTS for me. I have slippage with all the other nulux tights but not with this one because its higher waist, snugger in the waist and nipped in.

LLM you look amazing!!!
Love how the Fast&Free tights look on you. For the Low key tank I agree, you need to size down to 8. size 10 is too baggy on you and not flattering. size 8 is perfect tho.

The 8 in that Low Key Tank looks so much better on you than the 10. Definitely hunt the green color down in an 8 if it isn't uploaded tonight.

I love purple and green together and these two shades look great together. Not keen on both tank styles but I hope to see this green in some pima cotton tops. I just can't wear tanks that are tight like the Sun Setter which is why I don't wear the Power Y and the Low Key looks comfortable but I don't like the open back. On you the size 8 looks the best and I would definitely go with the green. Thanks for the fit reviews LLM.

Lulumum,
Curious, did the black grape fast&free tights mask cellulite well? That is a must for me and I usually gravitate toward patterns for that reason but black grape is so pretty!

Yes it did very well. I don't think the lighter fern print would have but this color was very smoothing.

I'm not sure why you even tried on that last shirt. It's missing several inches off the bottom. Looks bad on you and on any human and is totally impractical for all.

It's a crop top.. it's not missing anything. And she's trying it on because she wants to show it to her readers and because it's fun to try different tings. Your comment is so unnecessary for all.
