Love the reflectors on it. I wish the stores I go to had one out of the package that I could try on. how else are you supposed to know what size.

Insite Crop Pictures

by Cristina August 26, 2010
written by Cristina

I was disappointed to find out these are not new fall running crops because they do have that look to them with the pockets but I thought it would be odd to have zippers near the calf for running crops where you might get some chafing.

Effortless Hoodie Fit Review

by Cristina August 26, 2010
written by Cristina

I decided to stop in at my store because I wanted to try on the Brisk Ear Warmer vs the Brisk Running Toque to see what looked better and felt most comfortable and decided to try on the Heather Lolo Effortless Pullover while I was there. I tried it on in my Stride and Scuba Hoodie size 8 and it felt really snug in the arms, probably ok if you don’t mind that or if you have thin arms but I hate that feeling. I felt the body was roomy enough in this size that if I went up a size it would be too roomy and boxy. I have a feeling these are going to be marked down very soon, not so much because of the style of it but because of the awkward fit difference between the arms and the body. The one thing I really liked about this hoodie was the large hood in the back and also the distressed seams in the back of the hood. I hate that the logo is not embroidered on and just looks like a worn screen print.

As far as the Brisk Running items goes, I ended up with the Ear Warmers instead of the Toque because the Toque looked just awful on me. I’ll get it later if it’s cold enough that I need it but for now the fashionable choice trumped. The Toque does actually cover your ears and is quite warm so you don’t need to get both items, but if you like the way toques look on you than I would get the toque. I also grabbed the Neck Warmer because it was small and light and looks like it has a cinch cord in it so you can tighten it up and I figured I would probably use it to cover my mouth to warm my breath.

I also saw the SE CRB’s and it’t not lined with circle mesh but with a small edge of luon in contrasting color. I also tried on the Static Relaxed Fit Crops with the Lolo waist and I love them. As soon as there out in a full length pant I’m grabbing them.

I hope this fit review helps you decide what size to grab for the Effortless Hoodie if you’ve been on the fence about it.

Effortless Pullover

by Cristina August 26, 2010
written by Cristina

Although I’m not a fan of the Effortless Pullover overall I do really like it in this Heathered Lolo version available only on the US side. I think a Scuba Hoodie in this color would be perfect.

It reminds me of the Mexican Blanket Sweaters at Aritzia and TNA I’ve seen lately so I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the inspiration for the shape of this pullover.

Upload Thursday Musings

by Cristina August 26, 2010
written by Cristina

Well that was a super disappointing upload for me. No Inspire Pullover. It was good for those of you waiting for the Lolo Scuba Hoodie and the new colors of the Push Your Limit tanks but overall it was a long drawn out upload that started very early (7am). With an early start like that you would think there would be lots and lots of items uploaded.

We got the effortless shorts which are perfect for fall…

And arm warmers that you can wear with a tank top to keep warm instead of wearing  a nice warm pullover..

‘

So what did all of you get and did you find it as disappointing as I did?

Effortless Hoodie

It’s not bad, but if your going for that style of oversized pullover hoodie I much prefer the Flashback Pullover.

The SE Cool Racerbacks. Some better detail pictures of the Oasis/River Rock. Looks like it’s that circle mesh contrasting that we saw with the Savage Green/White, White/Angel Blue combinations in the early summer. This is just speculating so far though.

New SE Cool Racerback

I’m not seeing the contrast detailing in this picture. It just looks like she’s wearing a coal colored 50 Rep Bra underneath this. I wish when they list a CRB as SE that they specified what the special edition is.

Tadasana Pants

by Cristina August 25, 2010
written by Cristina

Made for Yoga and Pilates. I really like the look of these with the bootcut legs.
These Tadasana Pants are the ones we saw in last weeks upload picture of the Flow Y bra but the ones we saw were Senorita Pink.  We were all wondering what great pants they were with these offset seam details at the top. I’m liking these a lot now that I see the bottom and there high rise so that may be really good for muffin top taming.

The drawcord changes these into a crop. I love, love, love these officially now.

New Scuba Close Up + New Items

by Cristina August 25, 2010
written by Cristina

Scuba hoodie close up of the Senorita Pink and Silver. I’m loving the gunmetal grey logo on this one and the black accents

Lolo Backpack Called the Rucksak. I usually hate the look of the Lulu backpacks but this one is very nice and not so boxy.

Modern Crew neck in Heathered Charcoal. I have to see the River Rock version before I decide which one to get. I have an Angel Blue 5yr Pima so if it’s too close to it I wont bother, I also have a Modern V Neck in this color. I got the Lolo purple Modern Crew last week and sized down in this to a size 6 and am happy with it. Still plenty of roomyness in the tummy just like in the picture below.

Lolo Push your Limits.

Inner Strength Tank in River Rock and Charcoal. I think this is the only combination I’ve liked in this tank so far.
