Two pieces caught my eye from Alala's September product drop: the twist back tank and fractal tee, both in poseidon. I was a little unsure about how sizing would work out, but there's only one way to find out!! Here's a quick review of each. Fractal tee in poseidon The fractal tee has been a recurring style in Alala's lineup for a couple seasons now. I thought it would be a versatile, laid ...

Lulu Overseas: All Meshed Up Cosmic Teal
Like most recent weeks, this week's product drops on overseas lululemon sites had more new and interesting than the US and Canada uploads: There's a new capsule on the block: all meshed up. This is the all meshed up tank, which comes in clouded dreams cosmic teal, a new print. Here's cosmic teal on its own on a sculpt tank. I love all things teal so I think this one's ...

Upload malfunctions used to happen ...

Next Week’s Lulu: Bordeaux Drama + Soft Knit Layers
After a 2-week hiatus, what we love is back! Here's what's on deck for next week's lulu upload: First up, a basic pima cotton scoopneck, the anahatasana long sleeve (geez that's a lot of a's). This is really pretty, but after the inner essence long sleeve, I'm worried the scoop will be too dramatic. Still, I may give it a try since I like scoopnecks for casual wear. After a ...
