Thanks to reader Rose for sending me these images of the Let It Loose Tank in Pink Mist, Pink Mist Space Dye and Toothpaste. I’m really liking the Pink Mist/Pink Mist Space Dye one but not sure if it will be flattering to my figure since the No Limit Tank didn’t work out for me. I like that there are gathers right at the bust line as well as a key hole cutout to create more interest to the front panel and draw the eyes up. The fact that the inner bra is Luxtreme and the outer layer is sheer luon makes this very appealing to me.
The rumour on Lulu This Just In Group on facebook (someone who spoke to the GEC directly) is that Canada will not be receiving the Wren and Heathered Navy Sing, Floss, Travel Jackets like the US has. I suspected this was true of the Wren SFT Jacket since it’s already been out for a couple of weeks there and hasn’t made an appearance here yet. This is a huge bummer but luckily I have friends in the US that will ‘angel’ one for me after my hiatus. Take that Lulu!! Hopefully this is just a rumour but I’m thinking we can expect to see more and more diversified items that are unique to each store location. Hmmmmm….even more scarcity of product? Oh well, I guess we can all rely on resellers instead.
Todays Upload has happened and I was able to stick to my hiatus since my coveted Heathered Navy Sing, Floss Travel Jacket was not uploaded today so I didn’t feel any strong temptations that would lead me astray. That’s a very good thing for my wallet because I spent a boatload on Anthropologie Tag Sale this week instead. Did you pick anything up today or did you take a hiatus yourself?
Quincey looks fantastic in her Let It Loose Tank that she got today and she was kind enough to share this picture and also a storey of exceptional customer service from the Park City Showroom Lulu-Lemons, Michelle, Haddie, Lucy and Karen. In light of a bummer week It’s great to be able to share with you some good shout outs to lovely ladies at Park City who helped Quincey shop today.
Let It Loose Tank TTS for Quincey, $64
Left: No Limit Tank Right: Let It Loose Tank
Rumour is that there is new tank out today in the US called the Let It Loose Tank. Reader Quincey who purchased one today in Black/Heathered Black describes it as a lot like the No Limit Tank only made of sheer luon bodice. I’ll post more info as soon as I have it.
Really love the Wren!
Sing, Floss, Travel Jacket Heathered Grapeseed, Surge
These are the two colors that are currently in Canadian stores.
Heathered Wren ‘HTHWwrss’ Savasana Wrap
Have you been patiently waiting for the Heathered Wren Savasana to make it to your store? It may have come and gone. Purely speculation, but this reader has purchased one off ebay (US seller) with a black marker stripe on the rip out tag which is an indicator it was purchased on markdown and likely at one of the Factory Outlets. I don’t think items like this typically get marked down when they have yet to reach other stores unless there are no plans for it to get to other locations. It’s also possible that this was a sample colorway (nope, its the same as the PO) for the Factory Outlet and there is another colorway for the Wren Savasana. I haven’t seen pictures of it yet so I assume this is the regular colorway.
Dance Studio Jacket, Grapeseed also available in Wren
I really like the reverse side of the Dance Studio Jacket but sadly it doesn’t have pockets on both sides. My Aura Jacket is the same way and I find I wear it mostly with the side that has pockets out only because I really miss the pockets if I don’t. I’ve read a lot of reviews that this jacket fits quite slim and some prefer to size up.
I’d seen a product alert for the Heathered Grapeseed Sing Floss Travel Jacket and really liked it a lot. It was a must have based on that picture. Now that I see it in the facebook albums it looks a lot lighter then the product alert and so I’m happy to pass on it. I’m definitely interested in the Heathered Navy though.
Illuminate Jersey and Illuminate Shorts
I’m really liking the Illuminate Shorts. Love the pockets on the thigh for gels and the reflective tape is a bonus.
I really liked last years version but passed because I didn’t have a need for a luxtreme t-shirt. I love that this years version has circle mesh at the chest above the sweatheart neckline. If I worked out in a very air conditioned gym I could see myself wearing something like this, especially to lift weights.
Run Illuminate Dress and Run Illuminate Bra
I think a luxtreme running/cycling dress is really silly and I know I wouldn’t wear it but then again, thats probably what was said of the very first run skirts. I prefer the Illuminate dress in the Coal/Static colorway to the White version. I wonder if the white version of this dress would be as sheer as the light colored luxtreme run pullovers.
I had the Light Up Tank from last year in Pig Pink and Wish Blue and did really like them a lot for running. I ended up selling mine as they got too big and I don’t feel like replacing it this year even though I really like the Surge Blue one. I just prefer braless tanks for running and luon or circle mesh over luxtreme.
Bliss Dress $98
I think $98 is pretty hefty for this dress, particularly since it’s more a too/from and not technical wear. The fabrics are moisture wicking (Luxtreme/Tencil) which is nice for summer. I think the reason for the pricing is the Tencil Silk used on the bottom portion. I have mixed feelings about the Tencil. I love the feel of it but it’s quite wrinkle prone, requires fluffing up in the dryer otherwise it’s very stiff after a washing, shows sweat and doesn’t have the stretch that other fabrics have. I do like the Bliss Tank and dress but am not excited by them. Pockets on dresses and skirts are always a good idea though.
I like the Bliss Tank in Heathered Sand Dune. It’s unusual.
I like it in Black the best I think.
Pockets on the side.
I don’t use sunblocker tops in the summer but I do really think this pink mist one (and also the Blurred Grey one). It’s sheer but it looks pretty when you layer it well with a nicely contrasted color and shaped bra. I would probably wear the Pink Mist Energy Bra underneath.
