I went to return my Deep Breath tank today and took the opportunity to try on the Mind Over Matter crops since I've been reading so many positive comments about them. I thought they fit a bit on the loose side, kind of like the Inspire crops. The length reminded me of the Zoom crop. They hit me in the same place as the last photo. I did a bend tend and I couldn't see my underwear. They are not as opaque as luon but better than a lot of recent luxtreme crops. I am not a huge fan of the ruffle detail but other people seem to like them. I view luxtreme crops as serious athletic wear and ruffles seem a bit frivolous (I know, it's my own weird nit) but I don't think it would stop me from buying them if I was in the market for another pair of luxtreme bottoms. This is one of the rare luxtreme crop releases that goes up to a size 12.

I ended up exchanging my Deep Breath for a Scoop Neck in the Tinted Canvas print. I found one with a better distribution of color - mostly black and citron. I tried on the Deep Breath in the next size down but the light luon is just too stretchy and I was still showing a lot of cleavage. I tried on the Heathered Sand Dune Scoop Neck again to see how it looked with the Wren pants I was wearing - it looks super nice with Wren. The Heathered Sand Dune luon is very soft - it kind of feels like brushed luon but not as thick. I am thinking I would like a Define Jacket in this color, if it ever comes out. I saw the Seabed In Stride at the store but not the Wunder Unders. From the little bit of the print I saw, I still think I would like a CRB in it.
