Fit Review: Heathered Angel Blue Define

This was totally out of my budget today but I did get the 'yes honey' ok to get it and its one of those items that I just couldn't pass up and didn't want to wait to see if it got uploaded tonight. I feel slightly less guilty making a purchase like this one where I know it will get tons of wear both casually and for Crossfit where as the Serenity Sweater, as much as I love it in Bordeaux Drama, it's got limited usefulness in my closet and the cost per wear is just too expensive for me at this time. 

This Define is buttery, buttery soft and heathered. Its slightly different than the Cool Racerback with 1%-3% less polyester (can't quite remember what the CRB is Cool Racerback is 47% Polyester, Define is 42% Polyester) so the difference is that the Define doesn't have that shimmer/sheen that the CRB has. I think it's also ever so slightly thicker but not by much and definitely softer. The difference in fabric is miniscule but if you are OCD like me (I know a lot of you are) you will notice. If you really like your Defines structured and stiff you may not love this one as much as I do. It's so soft that it feels like RULU and is really stretchy and much less structured compared with my Power Purple which is a solid and holds it's shape a little more. The inner logo/seam detailing is contrasted in Angel Blue Tonka Stripe and the body is Heathered Angel Blue. I got this in my Define size 12, same as my Power Purple. My Cool Racerback size is 10. Keep in mind that I'm wearing a bad top in this picture under the Define. It's a really flowy tee and its all bunched up underneath and hanging out at the bottom in a bad way. I'd never wear this top under the Define out.   I'm in deep love with this jacket right now and will probably tear the tags of and wear it to Crossfit tomorrow morning.
