Well I had the impulse decision today to return the Run: Weightless Singlet I got the other day. I really do love this tank for a lot of reasons but in the end, I was about to take the tags off to wear it out for a run and I decided that I didn’t love that the top panel of fabric in the back (where all the pretty laser cut design is) was not stretchy enough for running. The size up in a 10 was too large and billowy on me and caused puckering at the upper bust and the size 8 looked pretty and not too baggy in the tummy but the lack of stretch in the stiffer part of the fabric was going to be even more irritating once I actually used it for running with constant arm motion.

I will for sure reconsider this tank again if it comes up on markdown since the function of it is amazing. The overall fabric feels like your wearing a silk blouse and the laser cut detailing is really pretty (although be aware that you may get a lulu logo sun tattoo from it…I personally charge for ad space on my body) but I just couldn’t bite the bullet and tear the tags off of it. I actually exchanged this for the newest Pearl Luxtreme Cool Racerback Tank Heathered Pigeon and had tear the tags off lust when I got home. I think I’ll probably also get the Royal one when it comes out too.

Sorry I couldn’t provide you with an actual post run fit review on this tank but the lovely girls at Coquitlam Lululemon told me they just love this tank for sweating in and it would be perfect for hot yoga.

sorry about the mess behind me, kids found a spot they had to scatter their toys for the day.

Someone on Lulu This Just In posted a sighting of new Studio Crops with color code MAG (Magnum?) and she describes them as light purple. I wasn’t planning on getting any studio pants or crops this year (especially not crops with the summer where having in BC) but a light purple sounds tempting.

Well this is kind of cute. I’m not sure what the rest of this tee looks like but I’m intrigued by the back.

I’m hoping I get my Run Weightless Singlet I ordered this morning sometime tomorrow so that I can take it out for a run and get you a report on how it feels while sweating. My initial feeling of the fabric in store was that it felt a bit like a cross between latex and tencil and felt odd but it did feel really light weight so I’m intrigued enough to bite the bullet and give it a try. Breathable and lightweight are two different things and I suspect this doesn’t have a ton of breathability based on how much sweat it can absorb. Here you see an image of just how much sweat accumulates in the fabric. I’m not really bothered by how much sweat shows because…well I plan on sweating buckets anyways. The only time I really worry about sweat showing is if I’m in a class and it’s sweat marks in areas down yonder. 

I am officially lusting after this new Luxtreme Pullover now in Australia like I haven’t lusted for anything in quite a while. My last lust item was the Sing Floss Travel Jacket in Heathered Navy and I don’t remember what else before that. The only thing that would make this pullover just a little more perfect is if it was running luon since I prefer it to luxtreme in pullovers. But this Royalty Run: For Your Life Pullover will be mine..mwa-ha-ha!

Run For Your Life Pullover Royalty

Well I’d say this was a pretty fantastic upload, no? I ended up ordering the Run: Weightless Singlet in Citron and I think I’ll pick up the Pearl Luxtreme CRB next time I’m in the store or perhaps wait for another color run in it. I did really like the Heathered Pigeon on me and I loved the feel of the CRB but I think I want something darker. I love my CRB’s but I’m not much a collector of them as I just have 4 at the moment.

Oops, I just realized the Method Wraps were not uploaded today. Big bummer for those of you waiting for it.

What did you guys order today?

Run: Weightless Singlet

Cabin Long Sleeve

I love Royalty and the Cabin is pretty cozy but my first and last cabin LS pilled horribly.

Universal Wrap

Cool Racerback Heathered Pigeon (pearl luxtreme)

Scuba Hoodie Dewberry Wee Stripe Dewberry $108?

Did anyone successfully order this for $108? Is it too good to be true? I may buy it at this price.

Stride Jacket Dewberry

50 Rep Bra Rock Steady 

We’ve seen this color on an item before as a secondary detail color (can’t remember what) but the color is so pretty. I’d love to see this in a Sing Floss Travel Jacket or a Cool Racerback Tank in Pearl Luxtreme.

Here is a repost of this weeks product alert items as a refresher for tomorrow. I’m tempted by the Weightless Singlet in Citron despite the fact I didn’t love the feel of the fabric. I really love the design of it though and would love to try it out. I also really loved the Pearl Luxtreme Cool Racerback Tank so I may just order both tomorrow since I haven’t made a Lulu order in a while. 

What are you guys hoping to buy tomorrow?

This isn’t a very good photo of it but this is the new Run For Your Life Pullover. It’s made out of luxtreme and looks a lot like last years Run Cross Train Pullover. I really liked last years version but didn’t love the color options so passed on it. If this years version has pretty colors such as Royalty or Dewberry I would love to have one.
