I’m going to make you really sick of seeing so many pictures of these Run: Chase Me Crops but I feel the need to post them every time I see them paired with something other than Aquamarine. I am in deep, deep love with the crazyness of these pants and I think they will be my alter ego running pants for when I’m not in the mood for black. These make me pretty excited about what crops we will be getting for registering for the SeaWheeze Lululemon Half Marathon. I’ve heard rumors that the SeaWheeze crops are going to be mailed out at the end of February, not sure if thats true but I hope so.

I feel like the lululemon run designers are on fire with the latest run crops and tights. They are fantastic and different from anything I’ve seen before!

Boy, this weeks product pictures from all the stores have been really beautiful. From outdoor urban themed pictures in Downtown Vancouver and New York to the pictures last night from Edmonton running in the snow by the river. I’m feeling tempted by all the new run gear. I just wish the Run: Spirit Tights II came in a crop length because I love them, I just don’t do tights.

Pack and Go Pullover

This outfit is so cute. I love how the Pack and Go Pullover looks with the Indigo Run: Chase Me Crops. I’ve read reports that the Pack and Go runs quite large when TTS, especially with the side snaps on the bottom hem undone.  It definitely looks much cuter with the snaps done up and the hem bubbled up a bit. 

 I think these crops are TTS but run snug. The ribbed luxtreme panels are a bit thin and sheer so if you wear full brief underwear underneath these you will see them thru the material. If not, it’ll look a bit like a stripe of opaque black pantyhose material but because of the placement its not really a big deal. I suspect even sizing up you would still have that happen. I’m going to try the size up tomorrow just to see but I think for running comfort I’m going to stick with the ones I got. I really like the compression in the size I got and if I were planning on wearing these to crossfit or other group activities I’d be more concerned about getting them in the size up. Also, after pairing these pants with a few items in my closet this evening I have to say that Power Purple looks amazing with these as does Plum, Heathered Paris Pink, Currant, Clear Sky and Ghost. 

I am a mom and I work out and I look how I look so just want to share what this print looks like on someone with curves, badonkadonk and not a young mid 20’s full time athlete. I was quite curious myself about this print because a pattern like this can go either way, either be totally slimming or totally unflattering.  I am probably getting these pants in safe black as I am not brave enough to wear these out running or to crossfit (ok maybe solo runs but definitely not crossfit -too many boys). Although strangely I am brave enough to share this with this intimate little corner of the internet. What can I say, I’m a conundrum. Also, I think I’m going to size up in these since they fit decidedly snugger then my Mind Over Matter Run Crops in the exact same size.

Yay! Finally a picture of the Run: Chase Me Crops in Indigo We Are In Space Print paired with a color other than Aquamarine. I think this looks great with Paris Pink. Those of us a bit more scared of this print really need to see the color pairing versatility.

I stopped in my store quickly today before getting my kids to Play Group and was able to grab the Run Chase Me Crops. The rise is perfect on me but I think the fit is a bit smaller than some of my other run crops so I need to try it on again a bit later and give you a proper fit report. I’m not sure that the print is very flattering on a very curvy figure as the Space Dye Print really enhances the butt. The other problem is I’ve so far only seen these wild crops paired with Aquamarine but of my items at home it sort of matches my heathered paris pink CRB (the heathering is a bit busy though), My Currant CRB and maybe my Rocksteady CRB and that is all. I know the upcoming Lavender Haze will look perfect with it since the space dye print has tiny lavender Haze stripes in it and also probably that deep orange thats supposedly coming in March. I think I’m going to play it safe by exchanging these for the Black/Aquamarine version though… I don’t know. Oh, also the website description is completely wrong – none of the Chase Me Crops are at all reversible and it does not claim that on the hang tag. Oopsies! Oh, I also checked out the new glass water bottles Pure Balance Waterbottle and they are so frickin pretty and the glass is substantial. I can see myself getting a second one eventually but for now I resisted since I ordered one online. I wonder if these could be used for tea even though it says its just for ‘cold’ drinks and isn’t double walled. The silicone you would think would keep your hands from scalding, right?

 Pack and Go Pullover

I’ve warmed up a bit to this pullover but I still think it is quite overpriced and is in need of more reflective detailing. 

 Every Yoga Tank with Adjust Me Bra and Tea Lounge Pants

My store had all three Every Yoga Tanks in today and they are pretty in person with a bit more seam detailing than the Modern Racers. The Paris Pink was pretty in person but the color looked a bit odd to me. Sort of like it’s heathered but also warmer and more salmony? I may consider this tank at another time if it comes in that Orange we’ll be seeing. The Tea Lounge pants were cute with a narrow fit leg and the same material as the pullover but I didn’t love the cuffed hem. Not a great look for tappered legs like mine. I didn’t like the straps on the Adjust Me Bra, it was almost velvety and it has little notches cut into the fabric were you can adjust the length. I wish they had used the same color straps on each of the bras instead of using the same white.

My store did not have these tights in. They are pretty darn cute though!

Super cute! I love the way the stripes are organized on the back and side panels and how the inside hood is aquamarine.

Run: Catch Me Crops and Skirt paired with Aquamarine

 Love how her runners look with these crops. See? Solid Paris Pink CRB would have been awesome for these. 

 Aquamarine Scoop Neck Tank

Lots of new items uploaded tonight. Tempted by a few of them but I just ordered the Pure Balance Water Bottle.

 Tempted by these but would love to try out the indigo version

On the International side…what the heck is this? Tad overpriced for a wind breaker. Last years version, the Stow and Go (or was it 2010?) was this price originally and then dropped down to $19. 

*Post updated with prices*

I went to my local store today to nose around but unfortunately they had none of these new items in today due to it being an inventory day. I suspect all the Canadian stores delayed there product drops for tomorrow instead of today but I’m not certain. 

Run: Chase Me Crops $88

I’m kind of loving these crops. They are very different from any other running crop lulu has done before and since I only ever use my luxtreme crops for running, I don’t mind wearing something a bit more fun and out there. Definitely trying them on to see how flattering they are. 

If the Deep Indigo/Pattern version above isn’t flattering there is always the black colorway. 

Run: Chase Me Pants

Check out the cuff detail at the ankle. I think these may be luxtreme as well judging by the sheen. 

 Run: Chase Me Skirt $68

The Run: Chase Me Skirt is kind of awesome too since it’s made of Power Luxtreme and quite stretchy. Sometimes I find the swift running skirts too restrictive. If this skirt comes in a taller length I may consider it. I do need a loner length though so I’m not hopeful. 

 really cute outfit with the Ebb and Flow Tank in matching Indigo

 Run: Spirit Tight II. $92

I wonder how these are a second version of the old Spirit Tights. I love that lulu is finally branching away from standard black running tights. 

 Discovery Stripe Scubas! These are gorgeous. 

The Discover Stripe print has now made it to Australian stores and they will likely be in North America very soon. I’m liking it quite a lot. I think I prefer the print on the Power Y since it has the Deep Indigo straps and piping around the neckline which really grounds a stripe print a lot, although I don’t really wear Power Y’s.
