Here it is guys! Poncho Print Speed Skirt. What do you think?
I think I like it but I’m certain the horizontal stripes across the biggest part of my legs will be very unflattering.
Very Violet Define and Very Violet Stand Strong Tank. Such a great color. I’d love to see the Define paired with a black top underneath. Perhaps the black Stand Strong Tank. I love this outfit and I’m also loving Coal luon pants.
Static Very Violet and Static Wish Cool Racerbacks. Really excited to get mine tomorrow.
Candlelight Tanks. I was pretty ho-hum about this tank except for the fact that it’s the softest cotton ever.
Static Wish Wunder Unders. I did Wunder Unders till the weather cooled and now I’m all about the Relaxed Fit Pants
Stride Wish/MUPS. Not my favourite Stride but she’s rocking the color and the print.
What you see in this Poncho Stripe picture layered under the scuba is actually a new Run Speed Skirt. This is the stores response to the question asked by Zanna:
lululemon athletica Chadstone Hey guys! Thanks for your questions. What you see in pic 4 is actually our new run: speed skirt in the same poncho stripe as the hoodie. It’s probably the angle of the pic that makes it look like a top. Susan, if you’ve been looking on the canadian website the poncho stripe is quite different to the one for example they have on the stride jacket. Hope this helps! 😀
My purchases so far. Which I wont be allowed to use until Christmas as these are my presents from my mommy. My mom hates giving gift cards but she also hates shopping for Christmas presents so this is what we do.
The icing on the cake purchase ~ *drum roll* off the Exchange Page
Brushed Relaxed Fit Pants, Coal
Very Violet Cool Racerback
Black Brimmed Beanie
Here is a picture of a new Scuba Hoodie. It looks like the inner hood is lined with a tribal/poncho print but also, look at what she has on her wrists. They look like they are separate from the hoodie and not part of the sleeves at all. Like short arm or wrist warmers that are reversible. How strange! What do you guys make of this picture?
Well, I’m not hoping for much on tomorrows upload from what I’ve already seen in stores except I’ll probably get the Very Violet Cool Racerback and possibly the black Brimmed Beanie. I’m hoping to see an Inspire Pullover soon in Heathered Wish Blue (or Heathered Haze even) and I’m hoping it’s just as lovely and soft and subtle like the Lilac Inspire Pullover and the Teal Zeal Inspire. I’d also be happy to see another running luon LS in Heathered Wish or Very Violet. And Fleece is always a hope.
I’ve decided to also add a weekly wish list for ebay and the exchange on Thursdays Upload Eve. As posted about below this is my current obsession that I must find. And the Heathered Fox or Mudd Gratitude Wrap of course. So what my dear readers are you hoping for upload tomorrow or on ebay/the exchange?
Dear size 8 (or 10) Fuzzy Fleece Pullover,
are you feeling unfulfilled and neglected tucked away in someones closet unused and unloved? Please come find me as I’m desperately seeking a love connection with you. I have a few lulu friends in my closet I would love for you to meet.
Sincerely,
someone who is cold and needing a snuggle from a delightfully soft fleece pullover in a color and neckline that makes me look amazing.
Very Violet Define looks pretty. I’m almost certain I saw a solid Persimmons one the other day but now I’m wondering why I haven’t seen it yet in pictures.
Stand Strong Tank in Very Violet. I love this tank in this color on her. I think she looks awesome. I didn’t initially notice the arrows pointing down but now I can’t not notice it now that it’s been brought to my attention. Does that bother all of you? I haven’t decided yet if that’s something that would deter me from wearing this tank.
I tried on the Express Yourself Wrap yesterday and I just didn’t love it for $118. It’s just not a flattering cut on me and I don’t care for the fabric blend as it’s prone to pilling. That being said it feels silky and has a nice weight to it.
And the POM Jacket. This one looks sized right but it does look short. I think that’s fine for mild winters here in BC but somewhere like Saskatoon or Alberta would need a bit more of a drop tail back.
Very interesting texture to the newest scuba hoodie. It looks like the woven muslin of real ponchos. I do really like the look of this scuba as it’s really different from the usual scubas.
**I think she’s wearing a poncho stripe Pima tee underneath that’s peaking out a the bottom!! I would love to see that. Not sure I would like it in a tee but I’m really, really wanting to see it.
This is a picture from Aritzia from the summer. They’re doing the poncho thing huge and even have woven laptop covers in this knitted print. I’ve been tempted by some leather mitts lined in shearling that have an tribal inspired print along the edge which sort of matches this style they are just $35 for really soft leather. Much better price point for mittens I think. If I can find a picture of them all add them here as I think it would look totally adorable with the Lulu Scuba Hoodie.

yet another time pressed evening requiring me to hop on my treadmill instead of gearing up to go out into the cold for a run this evening. I really hate treadmill running and would so much rather be outside enjoying the outdoors and seeing the distance I cover instead of just reading the numbers on the display. I find it so hard to maintain my usual distance on the treadmill for some reason even though it’s supposedly less effort expenditure. I get way hotter then I do outside and I it’s just so easy to hop right off when I’ve had enough where as outside, if I’ve run 3.5km’s out then I need to run that same distance back in order to get home. And why bother walking it if I can just get home faster by running. I think sometimes the treadmill is harder because I’m maintaining pace where as outside I’m constantly adjusting my pace as I go up and down hills.
If I look on the bright side of todays run, I did complete 4 miles (she’s an american treadmill) and I got to listen to music during my run which I never usually do when I run outside, and I got to watch a little bit of TV. Because I have a treadmill in my basement I get my very own space away from the kiddies and I can shamelessly run in my pima cotton Modern Racerback (eeek! not moisture wicking) and when I get overheated I can just wear my Flow Y and not worry about anyone seeing my jiggly bits. I got this AFG 5.0 Treadmill back in April as a post baby push present to myself and she’s really been neglected until now. I’ve run on her maybe 10 times since I got her but I tend to run outdoors rain or shine. This is a pretty excellent treadmill for a home use version if your thinking about maybe getting one. This treadmill has an ipod docking station and speakers, an orthotic belt (cushioning) and a wider and longer belt then average and is super quite which is good when the kids are sleeping. It also came with a Polar wireless heart rate monitor which is really a great thing to use once in a while. The only downside of this treadmill is that it takes a little while to speed up to your selected pace so I just tag on a few extra seconds at the end to make up the difference but that’s just my little neurotic behavior. I think most runners are a little bit neurotic like that.
Now that I safely have my run behind me and the kids are asleep finally I’m diving head first into a bowl of Halloween candy with abandon as I’ve had a rough day and I’ve earned the reward.
