The End of Groovys + HeyLululemon Thread + Alala Sale

Gonna pile a whole bunch of miscellaneous stuff into one post…

Groovy run shorts are being discontinued for the time being. This isn’t the first time this has happened, so they may come back again, but no guarantees. If they’re a favorite of yours, stock up! The last few pairs are currently on markdown for $44, in black and black/secret garden.

Groovy runs are reportedly being replaced with “Run Times Shorts”. The run times are available in black on the Canadian side. They look similar to turbo shorts from a few years back with the same butt piping as the speeds.

If you’re a fringe size (2 or 12) like me, you may have noticed that we’ve been getting the shaft lately. A lot of core products that are usually made in fringe sizes like cool racerbacks and wunder unders have been mysteriously missing fringe sizes on some colorways (although not all for some reason). I’ve been getting hella frustrated by this, so I created a thread on HeyLululemon (lululemon’s feedback forum) asking for a reason and letting them know that this isn’t a great move. I focus on size 2’s in my thread because that’s what I’m most aware of.

If you have a HeyLululemon account and this interests you (or you just feel like helping the cause), mosey on over and give us an upvote and/or comment. (If you don’t have an account, it’s super easy to create one!)

New kid on the luxury activewear block, Alala, is having their first ever sale with 20% off, good through Monday. Use Code HeySummer14 to nab some discounted goodies. I’ve been wanting to try their stuff for a while so this is a great excuse to go for it.

Check out their line here. My top picks…

I have been dying to try a pair of these knockout crop tights–I adore this color–but they’re sold out in every size but M. Soooo disappointed!! If you wear an M, jump on this! All sizes are still available in black.

I also love this got your back tank–the details are gorgeous. The gold plate brand logo is a nice luxe touch, too. It’s available in solid black and coral as well.

The flyweight tee is totally rad also–it has thumbholes and cool mesh details at the shoulders and in the back. It’s also available in coral. Also shown is the take sides knee tight, which has some nicely placed mesh inserts as well.
