Upload!!!

by Cristina August 25, 2015
written by Cristina

US upload is up, Canada is still not loading.

I’ll be back online later tonight around 5pm to post my upload picks!

Ugh! I’m so sorry! My appointment went way longer than expected and I only just got home thanks to Vancouver rush hour traffic. Boo! I hadn’t anticipating missing upload today but I had booked the appointment ‘on the 25th’ thinking it was a Wednesday and noticed on Sunday that I had actually booked it over upload. Upload is a sacred time in my calendar and if you can believe it, this is the first upload I have missed in 6 years including many vacations in that time. Instead of doing my typical upload post I’m just going to show you my top picks from both the US and Canada side. 

My US top picks:

The Fluffiest Vest

I love this vest. I got it in my TTS and recommend that unless you really want to layer it over very bulky items. I know a few people have sized up in it for that purpose.  

Heathered Fatigue Cool Racerback

Stillness Pant in Heathered Slate

Bolt Sweatpant

Canada Picks:  

Manifesto Scuba Hoodie II

I wanted this Scuba last year and never got a chance to get it. I’m sorely tempted to get this one now but I need to think on it. 

Sunset Salutation LS

What The Sport Short *Long

I ran the Seawheeze in these shorts in the long version and hunted them down 3 days before race day since almost all of the local stores where sold out of them. I LOVED running in them and am so tempted to get these but I really don’t need multiple pairs of these going into Fall/Winter. But I love them in the Cyber Stripe. 

Pace Rivals Cyber Stripe 

High Times Pant Cyber Stripe
So tempted to get these. Lots of girls where wearing these from the US at the Seawheeze Expo and they looked really pretty.

The Fluffiest Vest in US

by Cristina August 25, 2015
written by Cristina

US stores have received The Fluffiest Vest in today so I expect the US upload will include it. 

Just an FYI, if you rely on my email on upload days to let you know when the upload is live, I may not be on the ball today. I have an appointment right at upload time so my post will be late (I’ll schedule the link to go up around 3:05) and my email may not go out tomorrow if I don’t have an opportunity to execute it from my iphone. Sorry about that! I will still have regular posting earlier in the day though and hopefully lots of store photos for you.

Prepare for a boring upload tomorrow. If you indulged over the past few weeks you will be very pleased that there is nothing terribly exciting this week. It’s the last upload for August and the next one on August 31st should be all the new September product. 

Just an FYI, if you rely on my email on upload days to let you know when the upload is live, I may not be on the ball tomorrow. I have an appointment right at upload time so my post will be late (I’ll schedule the link to go up around 3:05) and my email may not go out tomorrow if I don’t have an opportunity to execute it from my iphone.

Mail Day Fit Review: The Fluffiest Vest, Fluffin’ Awesome Jacket, Mini Ziggy Snake and So Biggie Butterfly Cool Racerback

by Cristina August 22, 2015
written by Cristina

Fluffin’ Awesome Jacket size 12 (one size up)

I did a quick in store try on of my TTS 10 in the Fluffin’ Awesome Jacket and decided that if it uploaded in a 12 I’d like to try it on at home. I wasn’t sure I loved the jacket in this camo in my TTS but trying it on at home sized up I actually really love it. I shouldn’t like a camo puffy jacket because the idea of it is a little dated but in this muted version of camo with gold/copper tones I do really like it. I haven’t decided I’m keeping it yet but thinking about my kids outdoor soccer practice beginning in just a few weeks and going on into fall/winter I’m tempted to keep it. 

*I’m wearing Yogasmoga crops here that I got c/o Yogasmoga. I’ll be doing a fit review of them for you once I can get them to a few crossfit workouts and I put them through the ringger. 

The Fluffiest Vest TTS 10

I tried on The Fluffiest Vest the other day in Soft Earth but my store didn’t have this Cypress Plaid Print in so I decided to check it out before pulling tags off. I’m torn. The Soft Earth is definitely more feminine and glam with the soft coppery toned green and butterfly liner and this Cypress Plaid is more cute/varsity preppy. I can see myself wearing the Soft Earth one more with both jeans and a nice top or dressed down in a more sporty way. The plaid I see more as a running around/casual vest. I’m overthinking it but thats how we do here on the Lulumum blog. 

Mini Ziggy Snake Cool Racerback TTS 10

I just love this Cool Racerback. I’m not a snakeskin print fan at all but I love it in this unconventional colorway. It’s a polyester blend but the back of it is blue so it doesn’t fade to white and it’s pretty soft and silky. Definitely I am keeping this one. 

Biggy So Fly Butterfly Cool Racerback TTS 10

I liked this print a lot more in person than I thought I’d like it based on the online photo. I was almost certain I’d be returning it but when I tried it on I actually quite liked the print and the fact that the butterfly’s on it aren’t very defined. It’s also a polyester blend CRB and the back of it is green but it’s not as soft as the CRB above and it’s definitely warmer. Jury is out on this one but I’m leaning towards keeping it for the print.

Reviews are mixed with these pants in the comments section. Some of you loved them as much as I did, some of you received them and thought they weren’t especially soft or opaque. I appreciate the sharing of information in the comments because we all have different thoughts on what makes an item a keeper or a send it back.

Sneak Peek: What We Love

by Cristina August 21, 2015
written by Cristina

What We Love is up! Thank goodness nothing I MUST have after a couple of weeks of really, really great pieces. I do love the last three items, the Sapphire High Rise Wunder Unders (CAN), the In The Flow Crops (US) and the Espresso Cotton Wunder Under Pant High Rise. The Espresso would be super tempting if they had been luon (and in Canada) but I have the Bark Brown Roll Down Wunder Under Crops from last October in cotton so I can pass on these. The Sapphire Wunder Unders would be very tempting me if they were crops. 

This week, we’re seeing an update to a iconic style – the Ta Ta Tamer III. We’ve been listening to your feedback for a long time on this piece, and we’re happy to be introducing this update to you!


3 key updates you’ll notice:

  1. We improved the comfort of this style by correcting the strap placement and increasing the length of the straps and band
  2. We improved the shape of the bra, mainly by reshaping the cups so it gives a more lifted sensation
  3. We increased the stability on the sides and centre mesh of the bra to help reduce bounce, moving this bra into the High Support category
