High Times Pant Nulux Iridescent Multi Black, Plume
Wunder Under Pant *Dazzle Nulux TTS 10
Of all of the featherlight prints, this one was the least flattering for my body type. I think if you are tall and lean these are perfect but the light coloured bottom half of the leg wasn’t flattering on me. The print itself I adore and I think the pants are gorgeous. I learned today that there are different weights of Nulux which is why these are listed as 50g Alpine White and priced higher for the same pant style as the others. The other prints that are also Nulux (but priced lower) are much more forgiving and thick than this Nulux. This Nulux feels more nakedy, less compressive and slightly sheer where as the other print in Nulux was not at all sheer.

I am obsessed with this print to the extend that I want the WUP as well as the High Times. The print in person is very nuanced and has a lot of browns and mauves in it, not just black and grey. As I mentioned above, this print in Nulux is more forgiving to me in the sheerness department as well as in compression. My store didn’t have the plume print in but I am anxious to find out if they are like these.

The WUP is more compressive than the High Times even so if you are worried about Nulux (if you are in the upper sizes like me, and compression is a concern) these are the way to go. A lot of people have mentioned this print looks like fish scales and I sort of agree, although I get more of a mermaid vibe from it. The browns and taupes in the print in person really make it less fish like.
In Sculpt Jacket TTS 10
I caved to peer pressure and purchased this In Sculpt Jacket from the sale. Carolyn from Lulu Addict has been really talking this jacket up and she’s purchased a second one today on markdown. The thing she said that sold me was that it’s a very comfortable jacket to put on post sweaty workout so that it keeps you warm without reheating you after you’ve cooled down. I think of the spacer fabric jackets, this one is the most flattering fit. This picture doesn’t do it justice because the black one I ended up getting has a much more sleek fit on me.
My store had this new sweater print in. It’s actually really pretty and I might consider a tank in this. I know it’s coming in Fast And Free Tights which we saw in the Winter 2016 Lookbook back in October.
I love this entire line and love the video but that Close Encounters theme song is really creeping me out.

I know I’ve been a cranky B about Lululemon this past year but these Featherlight prints are just stunning. Well done to Lee Holman and Janaina Milheiro for an ingenious collaboration. I just wish there was also a Cool Racerback in all these prints as well. I ordered the three prints so far, the High Rise WUP’s and the Iridescent print in the high times. I know it’s kind of crazy ordering all of these but I find the prints really special and I’ve been anticipating them since August. Thankfully the lululemon items building up to this over the past several months have been a bust for me so that really leaves room to splurge when something truly special comes around. I’m also very happy that lululemon didn’t jack up the prices for these since historically, their special edition black friday items have been insanely priced. There is also a really great WMTM upload simultaneously so if you’ve been eyeing some things for markdown, now is the time.
For next years posterity sake, this upload was Thursday at 11am PST.

I’m also very excited about these. I love the Play All Day Sock and they’ve been out of stock since early summer.
Happy Thanksgiving my US friends!!
While we wait for the Lululemon Black Friday sale, here is a roundup of other athletic brands that I’m affiliated with that are participating in Black Friday markdowns. I really wish Sweaty Betty, Lorna Jane and Athleta had more equitable shipping prices for Canadians.

Heads up you guys! In anticipating of Black Friday, Lululemon’s ebates is up to 10%! I’ll be trolling the site constantly for the upload so if you want a heads up, sign up to my newsletter. I shoot an email out the moment the upload is up. Don’t forget to use your ebates when checking out like I do at least 50% of the time. Thanks to reader, Ms. J for the Facebook heads up about the ebates increase.
This is a preview of the special edition prints collaborated with Janaina Milheiro which will be released for Black Friday. Historically, lululemon does a special edition release of products on Black Friday as well as having some markdowns. Here is my post from Black Friday last year. The upload happened on the Thursday early evening.
For a better preview of what we will see, Lululemon’s look book was released last month and many of these feather themed prints are in the book Winter 2016 Lululemon Lookbook
Earlier I mentioned I was in love with a Mackage coat that was on pre sale for Black Friday. It’s this one at the top here. Sadly it is sold out of my size but if it had been available this would have been my Christmas present. It is taunting me so badly. I’ve tried some of these coats on before and I take an L in the leather (I’m a size 10 in lululemon) and take an L in the wool coats (but they can be narrow in the hips) and it seems that the down coats are the only items to come in XL so my preference is that size for the extra layering room and hip room. Mackage coats are so beautiful! If the price point for Mackage is too steep, they also have an equally lovely sister brand called SOIA & KYO. I really don’t see a quality difference between the two, just a slight aesthetic difference with Mackage being sleeker and edgier.
If you are cruelty free and don’t like the use of wool, down, or leather, ignore this post and do not click to Mackage.
Mackage currently also has 3% cash back for ebates.
I tried this black coat on last week at Nordstrom and I fell in love. It was not on sale then though and my husband laughed hysterically at my adding it to my wish list.
If you’ve always wanted a leather jacket, now is the time. I got my leather ‘Kenya’ Mackage Jacket from Aritzia last year for Christmas purchased on black friday. I love that jacket so much!
