Upload tonight was pretty low-key for a me. A couple cute items, but either not in my region or just not things I cared about. Minimal will power required for me. Most of the things uploaded have already been spotted overseas, though there’s a handful of things that are truly new.
Canada got the new grapefruit speed shorts. One problem: what’s in this pic isn’t speed shorts. These are very clearly run times shorts. These uploaded internationally a couple weeks ago and I don’t get why they *still* haven’t fixed the photos to speeds! For one thing, I feel like people are gonna be peeved when they order these and get something different from what’s pictured. For another thing, I just want to see the actual speeds! There’s only one pic of the speeds that has surfaced so far, and it looks like they do not have contrast trim like the run times here.
Pleat to street skirts! Iris flower for US, floral backdrop for Canada.
Several new cool racerbacks tonight, including gator green and bleacher stripe. Gator green has been seen in Canada stores.
Fugly fail of the day: roll up crop top. They “made too much” already. Yikes.
New pace rival crops in floral backdrop blue denim and iris flower. Canada only. Pace rivals have yet to show up at all in the US.
New itty bitty halter in the US that kind of looks like it went part of the way through a paper shredder.
Canada got the new split second shorts in a couple of colors.
The US got this new perforated out and about tote. Apparently, it has a removable clutch.
Canada did get the floral backdrop all you need duffel and the run all day backpack.
Other upload notes:
– Canada got more stuff your bras.
– Time warp tights reappeared in the US in blue denim and black.
– New poseidon shorts in the US: run times and hotty hots.
– The US got the new space dye twist iris flower inspire tights. (Canada already as them.) Canada got diamond palm embossed.
– New dottie dash slate rolldown WUP in Canada.
– Oki print silver spoon scuba hoodie for the US.

Ha ha! I actually like the paper shredder tank, but not enough to pay full price. Nothing tempting for me either. Waiting on pistachio & grapefruit CRBs.
h|c says
yeah me too…but then I wondered how the hell i’m supposed to get that strap around my head. and so I passed on it.

I guess you just have to live in it. Forever.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Yeah, the shredder tank isn’t bad, just made me chuckle a little. :)
Sophie says
Arggh Where are the pace rival crops?! LOL I’m salivating over the iris flower and the palm party gator green ones…I’ll be so disappointed if they don’t turn up in the US.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Yeah they ought to be here soon since they’ve been in Canada a little while. You’d think, anyway.
Lulu & the Box says
Good call on the paper shredder :) Absolutely underwhelmed this week!
*bank account lets out a sigh of relief*
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Yeah, easy week for me too!
linh says
agreed – nothing to buy this week from lulu. more money to spend on alala :)
why are they still releasing long sleeves/jackets for summer when it is summer! at least release more sun stuff!
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
I’ve been a little surprised at how many long sleeve/warmer things have been coming out, too…
FedUp says
I’m beyond aggravated that every country has had the Run Stuff except for the U.S. It’s really ticking me off. “more fun colors for summer” per Kaitlyn apparently I heard from somewhere. Newsflash – IT’S SUMMER. Not good for the bottom line to make customers wait and get frustrated when they can’t get what is out everywhere else.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Yeah, I agree, the timeline of things has just been really aggravating lately. It’s possible there are supply chain issues that are beyond lulu’s control, but I don’t know, it might just be that they’re a bit oblivious (or simply don’t care) that it’s putting fans off.

I bought the jet crop slim’s. I was really disappointed with how baggy the reg jet crops were so I am hoping these work out.
I also just got the layer up dress in the mail and…….I LOVE IT!!! it is very ‘fashion forward’ but that fits my style. Really reminds me of something I would get from an independent designer not a huge company like lulu. But I can totally see how it wouldn’t be someone’s cup of tea. I think the model on the website should size down because the front flap is really not that large.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Yeah, I figured there had to be a certain type of person who could pull off the layer up dress, but it’s deeeefinitely not me, and probably not even most people, lol.
Le says
I snagged Gator CRB & blue denim Power Y. Also got my 1 more Maxi Dress in the mail( I already have Heathered slate and large stripe black & white) now have to decide which one I’m keeping!
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Both tanks will be good basics, nice choices. :)
Soleil says
FYI I just saw the grapefruit speeds in one of Montreal’s stores. They are exactly as the pic from Australia (without the contrast trim). This confirms that the grapefruit speeds dropped in Canada, they just put the wrong picture online. I wanted to take a picture for you but I run out of battery… sorry. I also checked and they come in size 2.
I didn’t care about them. IMO on certain fabrics grapefruit looks like faded pink-coral (like on the ebb to street tank). Maybe it will work on luon ? (waiting to see the CRB before stating “je n’aime pas du tout la couleur”).
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Thanks for the report! I figured that’s exactly what happened. It’s just weird that after a couple of weeks, they *still* haven’t bothered to change the pic. Also, I’ve noticed the same thing about grapefruit. It’s very vibrant on some items but less so on others. The CRB looks like it might be on the more pale side. : I’m still planning to order the CRB and speeds to find out, though!
