I’m loving both of these Scuba Hoodies that have appeared in Australian stores over the weekend (hopefully coming to N. America soon) but I especially love the Dewberry Wee Stripe one. I’m not crazy about the solid Dewberry since it is so similar to other purples we’ve seen recently (Violaceaous, Purple Crush, Very Violet) but I do really love it heathered and wee striped. I mentioned in yesterdays post about the newest Let it Loose Tank colors that heathered dewberry looks a bit plumish to me which is probably why I like it so much. It also looks like the zipper is lovely plastic and not contrasted on the Dewberry so if the price isn’t insane on these ones ($108 is probably my limit for a scuba) then I can see myself getting this one. I suspect though that this one will be priced at $128 just like the other micro striped scuba hoodies. Read here for the latest info on the Scuba price increases.

I recently tried on the solid Surge Blue Let it Loose Tank and really, really loved it a lot more then the No Limit Tank on me. The fit was just a lot more flattering and the combination of sheer luon over a luxtreme bra was divine. I’m feeling really tempted by the heathered dewberry version of the tank since the heathered dewberry looks a lot less saturated and more plumy here. I suspect the inner bra is luon light and not luxtreme as the printed bra versions (space dye/wee stripe) tend to be luon light. Ah well, I’m sure the difference in comfort is pretty minimal. I think I would have loved this even a little more if the inner bra was the same color as the outside.

It looks like my commenting system is a bit glitchy today and a few of your comments may have been deleted. Also, the comments counter is at zero even though there are in fact comments. Please bear with the glitch for now and if it’s still a problem over the weekend I will disable the Intense Debate system I am using.
**Also, my polyvore items keep creating phantom posts on my lulumum blog. Sorry about that.
Pretty big upload this week, I think everything we’ve seen this past week from Monday’s product drop has been uploaded (oops, Wee Stripe Wunder Unders are missing). My favourites from today’s upload are the Astro Wunder Under Crops in Coal/Surge Wee Stripe/Heathered Coal. They are so striking and pretty in person and I love the colorful waist of the Astro pants on the Wunder Unders.
What did you buy today?

I don’t have a ton on my Lulu wish list lately but I have been feeling quite tempted by anything with the Surge Wee Stripe print on it, in particular the CRB Tank and the Astro/WU crops I saw in store the other day. I’ve always loved the waist of the Astros and wished they would ad it to either the Groove legs or the Wunder Under legs. I’m also thinking we will see a loot upload on Friday for Canada Day since we had one last year and my local store looked quite bare as usually happens right before a large new season shipment. I think it’s now time for early fall items to start appearing and late summer items to get marked down so perhaps we will see more Royalty color items come in on Monday. I did see the board shorts marked down in store so you may see those uploaded to Loot soon.
What are you planning on getting tomorrow?

This website was just discovered by a member of the Lululemon Exchange Group and it is an earily close copy of the real lululemon website. If you look under the scuba hoodies you will see an image of a box of the Passion Micro Stripe Scubas which leads me to think this is a ‘fell off the back of the truck‘ operation. I don’t know of anybody that has made a purchase from this website so if you do so, do it at your own risk. Personally I would stick to ebay for deals as there is buyer protection there.
And a hysterical link to a lululemon blog on the bottom of the main page.
Under the Cool Racerback Tank you can see a bit of the detailing of the Warrior 1 Hot Bra where there is ruching and some extra seam layers.
As expected, you can also see the outer bra straps under a racerback. I’m not sure if there are different ways to arrange the straps on this bra and if you can have a double racerback strap on it instead of one regular and one racerback.
This lovely bluey purple just popped up in one of my product alerts and it is so, so pretty. I’ve heard rumours of a color described just like this one coming up in the next pallet coming up for July. I’m not really crazy about the newest micro stripes (with the exception of Surge Wee Stripe CRB) but I do love this color and look forward to seeing it in some tanks and in the swiftly material.
I went into my local lulu today around noon and sadly none of the latest items were unpacked yet except for the Dewberry Cool Racerback Tank from last week. I was tempted to buy the latest Take Flight Bike Short since they were the perfect length for me and very compressive. Much thicker and compressive luxtreme then any of the run crops out right now. I also really liked the Run The Fastest Short and Run Willpower Short but I have a few more on my list to try on before I bite the bullet. I do see a use for these into the fall though for when I do Hot Yoga so it’s just a matter of finding the most flattering fit for me. I was happy that these shorts are more accomodating for athletic thighs.

Not a fan, but it is a lot better then the Harem Pants. This style works for some people (tall and thin) but I am not one of them and I don’t feel bad about it.

Love that it’s luxtreme and there are details I really like on this bra but I hate, HATE the big mess of straps in the back. As if putting on a sports bra isn’t hard enough.
