The Lululemon Upload | Lululemon Plus Sizes Now Available

by Cristina September 15, 2020

written by Cristina

Size 0-20 is here!

The Upload is here! And the new lululemon expanded sizing is finally here. Isn’t it so FRESH to see sizes 0 and 16-20 finally added? And to see a beautiful, fit, size 20 model representing the brand? And a woman over 40 with grey hair…and it’s not even Mothers Day! I mean, they didn’t just sneak in some size 20 items, they are using size 20 models on their new products page to feature the products. I just love it so much. I feel really warm and fuzzy about Lululemon, more than ever before.

Another thing I’m loving? I love seeing their marketing include artists and dancers and people just passionately exploring life. Fitness isn’t compartmentalized in our lives to 30 minute times lots, it bleeds into the other realms of our lives. Beyond just wearing yoga pants to sip lattes.

The Lululemon Upload is live!

This wasn’t a big upload, but it was still a fun one for me. Probably because I’m into the earth tones and prints we have now. I’m waiting impatiently on that Iron Blue Align Tank to show and the Iron Blue Align Crops. I was a bit disappointed it didn’t upload. I did get the Iron Blue On The Fly Joggers.I also got the new diamond dye CRB. I anticipate a long winter of a LOT of at-home time so I’m getting ready for 1. casual work-from-home wear 2. lots of fun, motivating and exciting workout clothes for at-home workouts. I’ll definitely have some fitness posts coming up this fall.

Have you guys been ‘nesting’ for this unusual Fall/Winter season? I’ve done a lot of intentional nesting, but also some unconscious nesting as well.

Let me know what you got from this upload and if you’ve caught yourself nesting, what have you been doing?

lululemon trench coats are always worth investing in, but the newest Always There Trench Coat is by far my favourite, and it’s completely water-proof! It’s a classic and elegant design, which elevates even your dressiest work outfit.

This weeks lululemon restocks

Happy upload day! Lululemon Upload is live. Is it the year 2021 yet?

This was a fun upload for me. Of course I ordered the rainbow swiftly ss. It’s beautiful! I also ordered the new diamond dye nulu CRB since I’ve fallen in love with the nulu CRB’s. I’m debating the matching align crops.

The US was lucky and got the pretty shibori swiftly. I definitely would have gotten that one. I’ve really loved the long sleeve version which I’ve seen in store. I don’t wear LS’s enough to justify it. I’ll be all over the tank when it does come to Canada.

I expected to see more Iron Blue items this upload but there where just a few pieces. Iron Blue is a new favourite.

Upload is here! Loving Iron Blue. I ordered my favourite Lululemon shorts of all time, the Track That Shorts in Iron Blue. I Also really like the Going Places Hooded Jacket in Grey Sage. I have this jacket in black from several years ago and love it. I’m also really happy to finally see Love Tee V‘s in new colors for Canada. Spiced Bronze, Deep Navy and Heathered Hazy Jade all made it into my shopping cart.

The Upload

The Upload is live! See what’s new at Lululemon this week.

Not a big upload today, thankfully, after all that Seawheeze shopping. All of my orders arrived as of yesterday and I must say I am really loving the tracker shorts. All of them are keepers. This is my first year buying shorts instead of leggings. I also love the flare swiftly racerback. It’s really vibrant and the pattern is great. I also love the SW20 logo on the back and how visible it is. This is the first logo that includes the year, isn’t it? For today’s upload I ordered the City Adventurer Backpack Nano for my daughter for back to school since it’s perfect for her to stash her hearing aids during gym, and to keep her hearing aid batteries handy and not loose at the bottom of her backpack. I love that it clips on too. I might get a second one at another time for myself for my AirPods… although I’m pretty good about keeping them safe inside my purse.

I just got this tiny little dinky City Aventurer Backpack for my daughter to stash her hearing aids and hearing aid batteries! It’s perfect for that since it clips on to her backpack and it’s water repellent. I wonder if this would work for epi pens for those of you that need to carry them. It’s probably meant for AirPods.

Seawheeze 2020 Haul

by Cristina August 12, 2020

written by Cristina

The first of my Seawheeze 2020 Haul has arrived! I love it!

The First Seawheeze 2020 Haul

This was lightening fast shipping for the first item in my seawheeze order yesterday. The rest of my items are still pending. I also got the newest align tank in this order.

The shorts are a size down from what I normally order for shorts. I saw them pop-up live, and they sold out on me in my size just as I was checking out, so I had to quickly order the next size down. I do wish my size had been in stock, but I’m still happy with these and really love them. Flare is such a beautiful neon in person and it just doesn’t photograph as bright as it is.

By the way, if you’ve missed out on any Seawheeze items, or you got too many items and you don’t want to keep everything, I have a buy/sell thread going on The Sweat Edit Reviews on Facebook.

What did you order from the Seawheeze 2020 Showcase Store?

This Is What I Ordered

Keeping my fingers crossed that these items ship. So far they are stuck in processing and only one of these items has not sold out. Two of the three shorts are my size down, only one is my preferred size.

Activewear Lululemon SeaWheeze

all images are shopable! click to check out

No overnight lineups with sleeping bags on the mean sketchy streets of Vancouver for this Seawheeze 2020 Showcase Store! No sir! We’re gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Seawheeze since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Kanye f***ing West. We are all already winning in 2020, aren’t we? Let’s celebrate with some totally unhinged seawheeze 2020 shopping. I like this version very much so far.

via GIPHY

the lululemon seawheeze showcase store of years past…

Traditionally, by 6am on Seawheeze Showcase morn’ I am fully dehydrated, exausted from poor sleep, either too hot or too cold (both with clammy armpits), and confused with all the options before me. “Buy it all? Buy nothing? How ’bout a headband……nah lets get the entire pile and think on it later. I shouldn’t be feeling these things the day before a half marathon, right? I should probably take a nap before driving home.”

Guys, trust me. I’ve been shopping seawheeze since the inaugural seawheeze in 2012 pushing a double stroller with two babies holding my pile of ‘maybes’. Don’t get a few extras to flip or angel. Just get one outfit. Don’t buy 4 leggings, three bras, a bag or two, and all the swiftlies. If shopping Seawheeze is financially doable for you this year (lets count our blessings if it is!), just get a pair of tights or shorts (maybe both), get a bra, get a unique top, get one accessory. You’ll be so happy and satisfied with that one outfit. You don’t need more.

Where do you think you’re going? Nobody’s leaving. Nobody’s walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family seawheeze celebration. No, no. We’re all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm lululemon emergency here. We’re gonna press on, and we’re gonna have the hap, hap, happiest seawheeze since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Kanye f***ing West. And when the pace beavers squeeze into those tight, tight, tight reflective run tights on zoom, their gonna find the jolliest bunch of assholes this side of the nuthouse.

135 days until Christmas.

Put your hair up in a pony. Let’s do this!

Activewear Fit Review Lululemon

Ancient Copper Align Tank, Lunar Lengths Wrap Sweater, CRB Incognito Camo Pink Taupe

by Cristina August 7, 2020

written by Cristina

Mail Day! Yah! My Ancient Copper Align Tank arrived along with my other purchases, The Pink Camo CRB, and the Lunar Lengths Wrap Sweater. I am in LOVE with the Ancient Copper Align Tank. We need more items in this color!

This is just a show and tell post. I wanted to quickly get some photos up for you guys to see these items because I love them all. Initially I had just ordered the Lunar Lengths Wrap Sweater in Soft Sand, but then I worried that the color would look terrible on me so I ordered Iced Iris. I actually really love the Soft Sand so that’s the one I’m keeping. I love the length on it.

I haven’t ordered a CRB in Yeheheears. They used to be my #1 Lululemon purchase and I wore them all the time. After they changed the CRB design I just stopped buying them. I ordered the CRB II Nulu because I love the pink camp print. That’s another color I thought would look terrible on me but when I tried on the Track That Shorts I saw how flattering it was, especially paired with black. Well… I once again love the CRB’s. I sized up because it’s Nulu and now I’m wondering why there aren’t more colors and prints in this tank?

Good upload today! Of course, the Align Tank in Ancient Copper fell into my shopping cart. What a beautiful color for a tank! Hope that order goes through. I also ordered the Lunar Lengths Wrap. I was tempted by the Soft Ambitions High Rise Crop but I’m worried it will be a little thick and warm for our hot weather right now. I’m not interested in fall shopping right now. This summer feels too short and odd as it is that I’m in no rush to be mentally preparing for fall. I’m normally just the opposite and really love Fall shopping.

I’m liking this latest Lab Capsule. What do you think of it?
