Monday Product Drop..on Friday

by Cristina July 29, 2011
written by Cristina

Since Monday is a holiday here in BC I was told yesterday that the big August product drop would happen today. Sadly I couldn’t make it in or check out the latest online until now because I was at the Dr.s office with my daughters getting yearly check ups. Anyways, so sorry for the delayed report of whats new in store. There are a couple of new items here that I’d love to try on this weekend if time allows. One item I’m really lusting after. All of these gorgeous new fall items are really conflicting my budget between my casual/work out clothes and my non lulu clothes I want to also buy.

Oh, and PS. lulu, I’m still grumbling about ALL of the dead links in the product alerts. Major sucky!

Riding Jacket

Alright, I get that this is designed to look like an equestrian jacket with the boxier fit front with a high neckline and the pleated back panel. It’s a fashion statement for sure but not one that I personally like, especially not the contrasted grey version. I do however really like that the MP3 pocket is now big enough to accommodate an iphone or an itouch as apposed to a mini shuffle. I hope these bigger pockets are used on all items that used to have the mini pocket. 

Run Silver Bullet Long Sleeve Tech

I am LUSTING big time over this new swiftly top. It’s the same silverscent material used in the mens swiftly tops and I’ve often wondered why the men got the less revealing thicker silverscent knit while the women got the shows every lump and bump knit. I’m also crazy about the neckline on this because the Swiftly Tech Crewnecks always seemed too closed and high up for my liking. And the color is A-Mazing. 

Silver Bullet Tank

This is the other item making it to my lust list. I’ve read that the feather design on the front (Royalty colorway in bottom picture) is all reflective. How long have we been asking for a return of the pretty reflective detailing that we saw back in 2009 with the Spirit Pullover? Instead of using just the ugly utilitarian strips of reflective tape (which are useful and I’m glad they’re still incorporated) we also get the pretty reflective design in this tank. I love the color of this tank and that it’s the knitted silverscent material, I also love that it’s looser around the tummy. Hopefully I can get my hands on one of these two tops soon to try them out. 

Run Speed Skirt Magnum Snowy Owl 

I don’t wear running skirts at all but I must say I am envious of those of you that do wear them when I see prints like these. I may be in the minority about this print but I love it. It’s neutral but still fun so It will go with all of your tops. Toooo bad run skirts aren’t made to accommodate chub rub and pillow thighs. I guess if they were they’d look matronly and then I’d never wear them anyways. 

 Wunder Under Crop *Ruffle

I’m a sucker for the Wunder Under Crops with feminine detailing on it. My favourite ever where my knotted WU’s but sadly I went to put them on the other day and realized I’d sold them in the heat of summer closet cleanout. Because it was too warm to wear them. FAIL! I don’t know that I love the Grossgrain ribbon on these but I do love the ruffle. 

 Run For Your Life Tank

This is another Silverscent Knit top. I liked it a lot at first and then I saw the Run Silver Bullet Top and I like that better. This one has an inner bra and some luxtreme paneling. I really like the bottom portion of the tank and how it sort of fits like the Run: Energy SL with the cinch coard to customize the fit.

Upload Thursday

by Cristina July 28, 2011
written by Cristina

Some goodies today!! A new surprise item was uploaded today, (I think this has happened the last 3-4 weeks) the Run For Your Life Tank. The Method Wrap was finally uploaded but not the Royalty one. A Royalty Define was a nice surprise that we haven’t seen before today. I think the stars of today though are the two Pearl Luxtreme CRB’s. I wore my Royalty one yesterday for a run and it’s heaven so I highly recommend it. I wasn’t a fan of the Static CRB’s but for some reason these are different to me.

What did you buy today?

Triumph Tote Details, Destiny Duffel and Method Wrap

by Cristina July 28, 2011
written by Cristina

This looks like possibly a Raspberry or Dewberry Triumph Tote. I’m leaning towards this being Raspberry since some stores got Raspberry Swiftly LS’s in today and I think this will be part of the newest August color palette along with Rocksteady. I’m really in the mood for pinks all of a sudden so Raspberry is looking really pretty. Can’t wait to see a running pullover in this color. In this bag though I think I’m leaning towards Magnum. 

Triumph Tote

Note: The product description may be incorrect since the URL for this product alert was for the Hot Yoga Hobo. 

Destiny Duffel

This bag seems to have an embossed image on it so I’m guessing it may be ‘Nesting Black Bird’

 Method Wrap

A new Method Wrap colorway. Maybe ‘Nesting Blackbird’ Print on the inside, Ghost or Pigeon on the outside.

New Bag! Destiny Duffel

by Cristina July 28, 2011
written by Cristina

Another new bag has popped up called the Destiny Duffel in an Australian product alert. Sadly the product alert for it is another dead link. I’m really irritated that all of the product alerts lately contain dead links to the newest items that we would be interested in reading the product descriptions for. Hopefully this is not a permanent glitch because a lot of you are strictly online shoppers and can’t rush to the store to check the product details. Anyways, as always, once I get product info on this I’ll update you all on the dimensions and inner pocket details.

Upload Thursday Eve

by Cristina July 28, 2011
written by Cristina

Not a lot new this week so I’m expecting (and hoping for) a small upload tomorrow. I suspect next week we will get a huge product drop in store with new colors (Rocksteady? Raspberry?) since it’s the start of a new month and pre fall items are hitting stores. I really love my new CRB’s in Heathered Pigeon (kind of reminds me of heathered mudd) and heathered Royalty and my Magnum Free To Be Bra. I haven’t made a lot of lulu purchases lately but I’m in need of a pick me up/motivation item for my running so I’m pretty sure I’m keeping those purchases. The Triumph Tote  and Run: Silver Bullet Singlet have shown up in some showrooms so it’s possible we may see that as a surprise tomorrow but I doubt it. On my radar for purchasing is the new Run For Your Life Pullover and I’d also like to get a running long sleeve this year (in pink?) since I passed on the ones out last year. Thats pretty much all that’s on my list of things to buy.

Whats on your wish list for tomorrows upload?

New Mystery Singlet: Run Silver Bullet

by Cristina July 27, 2011
written by Cristina

No info on this singlet yet but I’ll update as soon as I can. The ruching at the upper back (top right picture) makes me wonder what fabric this is. I’m almost hoping it’s Pearl Luxtreme. I’m liking the feather print around the neckline too.

The Newest Define Jacket: Heathered Dewberry

by Cristina July 27, 2011
written by Cristina

This is a pretty good shot of the newest Heathered Dewberry Define Jacket that just came out. This one is just sooo pretty. I wonder if there will be a Heathered Royal Define like the Heathered Royal Stride Jacket? I can’t seem to remember if lulu usually makes the same colorway Defines and Strides/In Strides. Also, I sort of wish both of these jackets were made of the same Pearl Luxtreme as the Cool Racerback Tanks. I didn’t love the Static Wish CRB when it was out yet in the winter yet  I’m really drawn to the pearl luxtreme royal which is pretty similar to that CRB with the exception of the sparkle and it being low maintenance luxtreme vs. luon. Hmmmm, maybe a Pearl Luxtreme Define Jacket would be too flashy.

Monday Product Drop Store Report

by Cristina July 25, 2011
written by Cristina

Not too much new in store today but some very pretty pretties. I grabbed myself the Heathered Royal CRB tank and I think these picture really show off the shimmer the new Pearl Luxtreme Cool Racerback Tanks have. I also couldn’t resist this new Free to Be Bra in Magnum since I love the black one I got last year. I was thinking of getting white since I’m pretty boring with my sports bras and always go for white and black so that it matches everything but I saw this gorgeous neutral and couldn’t resist. I just wish the Free To Be had enough support for me to use it as a running bra. But it’s pretty perfect as a casual summer bra to wear under CRB’s/  I think it will look really pretty under this Royal CRB and will also look great under my Pigeon CRB.

The store also got in a Heathered Royal Stride Jacket and Heathered Magnum, The Breezy Bow Tee (all black or grey/black) and Heathered Dewberry Pearl Luxtreme CRB. I also saw some new Swiftly LS’s in Dewberry and Swiftly SS in Citron and Dewberry.
