Dude, what a weird night. The special Sunday-night-Cyber-Monday-edition-Tuesday-replacement upload was supposed to be “after dinner” Pacific time, and one rep from HQ on Facebook even went so far as to say 9pm PST. So everyone’s waiting, and waiting, and waiting, and it finally arrived fashionably late around midnight mountain time (2a EST/11p PST).
So, lulu: you win. We have been sufficiently trolled into staying up stupidly late with the promise of “upload soon!”.
To top off the weird cake, while I was minding my own business refreshing the what’s new page and thinking stabby thoughts about seeing the damn glitter collection for the umpteenth time, I got hit with a brief 4.7 mag earthquake of all things. (I don’t live in an area normally prone to quakes.)
Like I said, weird night.
Anyway, strap yourselves in. After all the waiting, there’s quite a bit of notable goods.
As we were promised: fluff off jackets and pullovers. 3 colors: ultra violet, white stained glass love, and stained glass love nightfall. As I’ve mentioned before, I love my jacket and wear it all the time so I can recommend this one. I had to size up for the jacket because my size is not available, and it works just fine, but many (most?) people stay TTS with these. I vaguely remember not liking the PO in my size up.
Also as promised: mini check pique ultra violet vinyasa scarf. I think the black ribbon qualifies as “not ruining it with the ribbon” since it’s a neutral. US also got the parallel stripe menthol.
Free to be wild bras! Ultra violet and capilano stripe only. Interestingly, Canada got size 12 in both these colors, while US only goes up to size 10 (the usual cap for this style).
Canada got the wild tank. If you look closely, you’ll notice the straps are flatter and wider, like the energy bra, not rounded like the free to be and FTBW.
The flurry fighter pullover is really growing on me. It comes in black, ultra violet, and white so far. The slits at the hem irritate me but I’m not sure it’s a dealbreaker. To be fair, the looseness from the slits might help the hem to stay down instead of riding up.
The cotton fleece karmacollected jacket is actually surprisingly cool considering the other karmacollected stuff is pretty shapelessly fug.
Surprise define jackets: coco pique for US, parallel stripe for Canada.
The much-anticipated (by some, anyway) black/nimbus pranayama scarf made it to both sides. I’m too tired to decide whether to order it right now but I will probably give it a shot. Considering the other 2 colors are still in stock, I think I’ll be safe to wait til morning to decide… (Update: since I’m sure you’re all dying to know, I decided to pass after one too many reviews reporting its flimsiness.)
New embrace hoodie in Canada looks…inappropriate somehow.
Unbreakable print speed tights–the print is only in the front, which is smart for sheerness and dirtiness. I love this print, but no size 2 or 12 because lulu hates fringe sizes lately. Only Can got this print, plus they got giant herringbone. US only got deepest cranberry for speed tights.
Oh and BOOM, parallel stripe speed tights. Also Canada only, ALSO again with lulu pooping on fringe sizes.
New giant herringbone wunder under pants. They look kind of brown here, which may have to do with the brown stitching, even though the print is stated as being black and looks black in closeups.
High times pants were uploaded in coco pique AND giant herringbone. Herringbone is US only.
This stained glass love pow pink light/menthol print is actually kind of fun. Better than the other stained glass colors I’ve seen. This color in Canada only.
Bags, bags, bags. New colors in the festival bag (nylon and polyester versions) and mind and body kit, plus the US got the special edition patent chevron urban sanctuary bag.
Other upload notes:
– The exquisite capsule uploaded to both sides: tank, bra, onesie, pants, and trousers.
– Canada got an insulated version of the feelin’ frosty softshell–it has primaloft.
– Canada got some funky om stripe passion crops.
– Two words: glitter socks. (Canada only)
– Canada got an ultra violet 105F singlet.
– Canada got the new emerge renewed jacket in 3 colors.
– Beat the sleet pants uploaded to Canada only. They’re just a layer of glyde, no inner legging layer.
– Canada got run times shorts with a parallel stripe waistband. Let the record show that if we got speeds with a horizontally oriented parallel stripe body, I would lose.my.crap.
– In case all my “Canada got”/”Canada only” sentences weren’t a tip-off, Canada’s upload was much bigger: 54 versus 36.
– Still no majestic denim scuba in the US.
Dude, I’m going to sleep for realzies now, and it’s gonna be awesome. You can tell I need sleep because I keep saying “dude”.
I waited up until 11:15 EST and no upload. I guess it hit around midnight. At 6am I went to try to order the black/nimbus scarf I have been waiting for…sold out. So sad.
upload was around 0200 est.
also, the scarf is showing as in stock. I just added to my cart on web browser and in iOS app. check again? and refresh the page. if you happened to open the link in a new window, I find that items always show as out of stock; when I reload page, they can be added to my cart.
Yup, still showing in stock for me too!
The Omaha, NE store had parallel stripe Rundays as on Saturday (Friday? I couldn’t bring myself to face the crazy crowds and leave the house), but mostly sold out in all sizes by yesterday (Sunday). Maybe they are coming Thursday? I find Rundays too long for me (5’2″…ok fine 5’1.5″), but for the rest of world, have at it.
Hmmm that’s interesting. PS rundays were out last year so I’m surprised they (appear to be?) re-releasing that since re-releases are generally so rare. I didn’t like rundays when I tried them last year but I love the rebel runners.
I bought the Karmacollected wrap in the brown. It looks so cozy! I sized down to a 4 because it looks huge on that blonde. I really wish they would give model’s measurement’s and state the size they’re wearing to keep people from ordering multiples or the wrong size.
Definitely, I think that would save people a lot of trouble, but probably “too much work” for lulu.
Does anyone know how the sizing is on the flurry pullover?
I haven’t heard anything yet, but would like to know too…
Sad to see the $108 price on the Flurry Pullover. I love that it’s a solid color, but I’m not sure it’s worth $20 more than the rulu tops I already love.
The think fast PO is $98, so technically it’s only $10 more. ;) I was sad about the price too, though, but still tempted because warm things tend to sound awfully nice.
