Upload Thursday Eve

by Cristina June 9, 2011
written by Cristina

The big news for this weeks product drop was the Energy SL and the Manifesto LS and some new colorways for previously released items such as the Deep Breath Tank and the Circuit Tank. I got my Heathered Navy Sing, Floss, Travel Jacket earlier in the week and so I’m pretty much set unless for some reason lulu decides to make a Heathered Navy Modern Racer Tank which I doubt they will and since I feel so burned  with my Savasana Wrap (paid $118 only to see it marked down to $49 two weeks later..and then $29 at the FO on game day!) I’m in no rush to make more purchases. 

I tried on the Let It Loose Tank Surge The other day and really liked it. The fit was a lot nicer on me then the No Limit Tank was but in the end I passed because I have the Pure Focus Tank already and don’t need another sheer luon flowy tank for the summer. The luxtreme bra with sheer luon overlay is a dreamy combination though, If your considering that for tomorrows upload I recommend you go for it. I also am really loving my SFT Jacket and just wish it wasn’t too hot out to wear such a jacket (no I’m not wishing the sun away!). I’m sure that will be uploaded tomorrow as well for those of you waiting for it.  

I think what I love most about the SFT Jacket compared to the old WWA Jacket is that the WWA had panels of fabric on either side of the zipper on the inside of the jacket and it always showed thru on the outside (and also was an area that tended to fade where it created a ridge). The SFT Jacket however has a lovely grossgrain ribbon instead of the fabric panels. I also find the SFT much more contoured to the waist and shorter in length then the WWA so you don’t get that tubular look.  My top three purchases since January have been the SFT Jacket, Modern Racer Tanks and the Pure Focus Tanks. 

As for the Manifesto LS, I haven’t seen any images in my product alerts this week from any stores (I’ve heard of one person who has seen it in her PA), and Vancouver area stores have not received these. I wonder if this is an exclusive to certain location item and will not be available everywhere. Hopefully for those of you that are hoping to buy this it gets uploaded tomorrow but my hunch is that it wont be. 

What are you hoping to buy tomorrow?

White Manifesto LS

by Cristina June 7, 2011
written by Cristina

I’m not sure I like the seam detail that runs across the top of the bust and in the upper back. I’m not sure why it’s there but it seems silly to add that kind of seam detail with a busy print. It’s priced at $68 which is cheaper then last years $88 Manifesto V Neck  but $68 is still quite pricey for a garment that requires a disclaimer telling you to be careful because the material is so fragile. This one is burned out text as well and my shirt from last year ripped within it’s first wearing despite the fact that I was being super careful putting it on, sized up one full size for looseness and hadn’t even washed it yet. Buyer beware on these ones.

Coal Energy SL

Energy SL Coal

Reader Quincey provided fit pictures of the Energy SL in her true to size (regular tank size) and not sized down. I tried this on yesterday in an 8 and found it really comfortable and looked like this one does around my tummy.  My store had the tank in Toothpaste which I liked but didn’t love and Black. If I hadn’t gotten my Sing Floss Travel Jacket I would have liked to have gotten this tank in Coal. Kinda bananas that I opted for a hoodie on a hot summer day instead but I just loved the Navy Jacket on me and didn’t love any of the colors of the Energy. I hope we see a lot of color runs of the Energy SL this summer. I was just thinking i’d like to see thinking I’d like to see this in Pink Mist but I think it may be too late for that color.

Spotted: Sandra Bullock in Lululemon

Sandra Bullock was spotted wearing her Lululemon Coal Dance Studio Pants and Black Cabin Long Sleeve Tee. Sandra’s son Louis Bardo is too adorable in his little Tilly hat. George is not too bad on the eyes of course ;p I wonder what movie Sandra and George are filming together.

Sandra must have a pretty good collection of lulu since I’ve featured her on this blog before over here

New! Run: Energy SL Toothpaste

Run: Energy SL Toothpaste

This one is pretty and silky soft just like last years version (it does have the silverscent threads though) and it feels softer then my Personal Best SS Which felt slightly rougher with the edition of the silverscent threads. Maybe it’s certain colors that feel softer or perhaps the material was upgraded after it’s first run back in October. If you missed out on the Angel Blue Energy SL last year then you should probably check this one out as an alternative.

Monday Product Drop

Message In A Bottle Manifesto Print Long Sleeve (guessing at the name)

I really like the Lacey Lulu Hotshorts in Surge with the MIAB print but I’m not loving it in this distressed, bleached version of it. I hope there is a version that is Surge and not distressed. Also, I really hope it’s not burnout material (and I suspect it is) because those snag and develop holes wickedly easy. I made the mistake of purchasing the V Neck Manifesto Burnout last year for $88 and it lasted one wearing. Poo! All of the v-necks on the rack that I saw after the one I purchased all had holes in them so make sure to inspect yours carefully if you decide to get this.

Pippa Middleton competed in a mini triathlon wearing Lululemon Groovy Run Shorts today. This was the GE Blenheim Triathlon in which Pippa completed the 5km run portion in a very respectable 25 minutes and 30 seconds.
