As we were promised last week, Britt’s picks got a makeover this week and the pic quality is much better for seeing detail. Britt mentions in the text that the herringbone define jacket will be hitting Canada, which confirms my suspicions that herringbone was on its way in the define. She also says it’s a big week coming up with lots of secret stuff she couldn’t include here!
I almost forgot: there will be 2 uploads online this week! Not sure the official days, I believe Tuesday and Friday (i.e., Black Friday). I’ll keep you posted if I hear official days/times for the 2nd upload. Update: so, I thought the wording was kind of ambiguous in the Britt’s picks post and also I confess I was in a huge rush, but the general consensus seems to be that upload will be Tuesday and Thursday.
2 new run pieces coming: softshell-paneled flurry fighter tights and the feelin’ frosty softshell. This softshell was in the winter sneak peek video.
Looks like the rugby stripe swiftly LS will be coming in boom juice, and the bumble berry swiftly 1/2 zip will finally be making it to North America. She says Canada will see 3 colors of the 1/2 zip.
We’ve already seen the sequin snake speed tights, but stained glass love nightfall speed tights are on their way too.
New roll around tee has love printed on it (mirrored…), looks like something you could buy just about anywhere.
A couple people have pointed out that the new mini prisma print looks like it says “ho ho ho”, so I declare these the HO PANTS.
Finally, some accessories. The mantra tote we’ve already seen, but the mind and body kit (also featured during last year’s holiday season) will be coming back, shown here in neutral blush/metallic with stained glass love lining.

Britt wrote “we’ll see two days of drops online, and the pieces featured may deliver on either drop day (Tues or Thurs)”. So it’s Tues and Thurs?
AgentAthletica says
It confuses me when she says “product drop” instead of “upload” lol. For some reason I thought she meant product drop in stores, which doesn’t necessarily correlate with upload (and doesn’t make sense given US stores are closed Thu). Reading it again it makes more sense that those must be the upload days.

My prayers have been answered!!! I went in yesterday to try on the Ultra-violet Long sleeve, and although I loved the striped design, I was a bit underwhelmed by the color. So, I did what every lulu-holic did and I prayed for a boom-juice or a flare reddish color to come out soon…. and BOOM. Its coming :) JOY!
AgentAthletica says
Woohoooooo! Perhaps next time you can ask for some pretty CRBs since you seem to get your wishes. ;)

i just want more roll-down wunder under pants in whatever magical material they used to craft the diamond jacquard pair. y’all, they’ve converted me from my in the flow crops. SO comfortable and so great for squat cycles [*shakes fist at front squats*].
AgentAthletica says
I agree, whatever they used for the diamond jacquard needs to be the fabric for, like, every WUP ever. Then maybe they would win their market share back. ;)
Julia says
Last year there was definitely an upload during Thanksgiving, I believe.
AgentAthletica says
Yup that seems to be the consensus. I had a moment of dumb when I posted this. :)
Jenn @ Running on Lentils says
Ah, two uploads: the most magical time of the year! I went to 1 of my local stores today. They had a ton on MD, and they usually never have anything. I overheard an ed say they were getting so much new stuff in that they had to MD a bunch. Everything from spring is on MD, including every item that has the sashiko print (WUs, spring puffy vest, spring forward jacket) & rainrunner jacket. Bright bomber jacket was on MD but none of the other reflective stuff. I got a LS swiftly for $49 that I thought was Bordeaux but from the tags must be heathered plum…old! I can see what you meant about the odd shoulder seams on the Think Fast LS–very pronounced. While I loved the cranberry color of the Urban Sactuary bag, it didn’t wow me overall. Plus, I need more external pockets. I’d buy it in MD but not full price. I did pick up the purple fog/grey vinyasa that my store just got. I regretted not getting it when it was uploaded. Also got a run hat & gloves on MD yesterday. And today my purple fog spring forward jacket came. Will need to think about whether to keep it. It’s lined & much heavier than I expected. Was hoping for a lightweight shell instead. But it’s a nice jacket overall. I bet it goes on MD soon though. I might keep the tags on & wait & see if it does.
AgentAthletica says
Yes I heard that some stores will be getting new product every weekday! Craziness. I can’t believe you found a heathered plum swiftly, that is wild! Is it the one with the stripes? That’s one of the prettiest swiftlies ever, and at MD price–what a score! I also wasn’t wowed by the urban sanctuary bag–if I remember correctly it only had one large internal pocket, which was kind of lame. My sweat once a day bag has 3 internal, 2 external, plus the laptop compartment. Much better for organization.

britt’s picks says tues and thurs
AgentAthletica says
Yeah, my brain was all frazzled so when she said “product drop” my mind jumped to stores. But it makes no sense to have stores drop product on Thu since at least US stores will be closed that day! I wish she would say “upload” like the rest of us, hah.
Samantha Simons says
Once the “Ho” is seen, can’t UNSEE it!
I want that mind and body kit! Only thing I’m tempted by lately.
AgentAthletica says
Seriously! Lulu is trolling us.
Anonimouse says
I love the new look but I also notice that now Britts back in charge peoples questions are going unanswered, that’s a shame because when Katelin was in charge the questions were answered, in fact she’s even been on and commented about how she loves the layout but Britt has yet to answer anyone.
AgentAthletica says
Very true! She’s never answered ALL the questions but she usually gets at least a couple….none this week! : If she’s too busy with her other work to answer, it’d be nice if they could assign some intern to the task or something.
