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 nice.
New all meshed up shorts. The idea of these is that the tight undershorts prevent flashing while still enabling you to wear shorter shorts, but I just really can’t go for the shorts-over-shorts look.
All meshed up 7/8 tights, in new painted animal sprinkler black. Is sprinkler (the blue) making a comeback?
New up the distance shorts. These are a lot like the go the distance shorts in that they’re a looser-fitting reversible style. With these, you can roll down the waistband, like in this picture, for a slightly shorter look.
Last week Australia got a little &go capsule, but it seems like this &go everywhere skirt was a bit late (unless I missed it last week). It has some drapey, foldy details in a similar vein to the other most recent &go items.
New sweat bound tee. I think the white part is a separate piece, but the black mesh is part of the shirt. It also looks like there’s also some sort of separation between the top and bottom half of the shirt–perhaps for ventilation?
New kris cross crops in bordeaux. I actually like these. The mesh is subtle, the diagonal accent complemented by the black panel are both nice touches, and the side zip pocket is a useful feature. I’ll be keeping my eye on these. (But now I have that ridiculous 90s “jump” song stuck in my head–sigh.)
Lastly, speed crops in giant herringbone print. Where are the speed crops for North America…?
Also: this is my pick for stock photo of the week. Hehe…

I’m hoping the stock pic is for the shorts!

Haha yes it is!
Sophie says
The speed crops remind me too much of the pace rival crops. I “only” ended up with 2 pair of PRCs…had Lulu made more available to the US during the summer (ahem, gator palm party), I’d have bought more! I also like those Kris Kross !Jump! crops (hehe), but I have to say I have loads of issues with the bottom seam of Lulu crops quickly loosening up so that they bunch below my knee. I was in love with the Vent it Out crop until I wore it once and now all the elasticity is gone from that bottom seam. Maybe it’s me, or maybe the length is better suited for someone shorter (I’m 5’6″).
cadet_blue says
I have the same issue with shorter crops. I have 3 pairs of the in the flows and they all get loose and bunched up behind the knee making the length super unflattering. The seamlessly street crops are way better in that regard. I’m 5’6″ as well so I tend to stick with pace rivals and inspires.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
That’s interesting. I’ve only ever had one pair of that length crops from lulu (actually they were my first ever lulu purchase) and I didn’t have any issues. Maybe it is a height thing like you suggested, since I’m a couple inches shorter than you.
angeline says
caption for the stock photo pic: “#facepalm moment, lulu style” ;)
or it must be a “face foundation vs lulu tank” advertisement. I wonder which one won.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Haha! My bf walked by and said “she looks utterly disgraced”. I though that was pretty accurate too.
audrey says
Cranberry speed shorts just went wmtm. Full size run (including size 2) !!! Don’t remember if you have similar color already lol but thought I’d mention it
Michelle says
I just bought one! I’m surprised they went on WMTM!
audrey says
Me too!!! I was torn between those and the ziggy blue ones. Apparently I have bad taste because neither are selling well hahah but I went with the blue ones and now I’m glad I can get the cranberry for less!!!
Michelle says
Haha I dislike the snake print waistband but cranberry is so pretty! It’s never a bad idea to stock up on Speed shorts!
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Thanks! :) The color isn’t quite for me so I decided to skip out.

Just received the Alala order with the AA15 (thank you!) and the free All Day T-shirt promos. The fast track pants are amazing! I also love the style and the nice, thick material of the pulse pullover, but it is too big on my 5’1 and 108lb frame. I wish it had come in XS. The T-shirt is oversized in S for me but it looks great on and just works. Overall, I am very happy with my Alala order.
Suzanne | Agent Athletica says
Awesome, I’m so glad the fast tracks worked out! I can’t say I’m too surprised about the pulse PO, though. I was curious to try it, but since we’re both petite, I bet it would be overwhelming on me too.
