Welcome to another week of lululemon upload! This week we got a weird mash-up of both summer and winter extremes, with everything from bright whites to cozy textures and fluff.
Look what finally happened: white speeds! I really wasn’t expecting them this year. Not sure if I’ll be getting these, but given how many people have been looking for them I’ll probably need to decide quickly. These are only in the US right now. There are also white run times for those wanting a little more length.
More new speeds: pink lemonade. These look really long in the back on this model. Also, the little zipper accent is missing in this pic. Weird. Butterfly speeds are up on both sides, and Canada got solid cranberry.
Interesting new high times pants *metta. Not sure what the metta refers to–another capsule coming with similar styling? The styling reminds me a little of Michi’s hydra crops, just not so colorblock-y.
Textures are back! Here’s some new coco pique hi-rise wunder under pants, dark slate pique high times pants, and hi-rise herringbone wunder under crops. I’ve heard that coco piques and herringbone are in stores. Coco pique and herringbone are Canada only, dark slate pique is on both.
New trail blazer crops–mini pop stripe here. These have a big mesh panel on the back, a little reflectivity, and pockets at both the sides. Interestingly, the mini pop stripe is only $88, while the full-on luxtreme blue snake version is $98. I guess it’s an upcharge for the print, but I would’ve thought stripes would count as a print. Maybe the full-on luxtreme is the other factor there.
This fatigue ziggy snake/pizazz free to be wild bra really reminds me of hunting gear. I guess if you’re into that kinda thing? This one’s now in Canada along with blue ziggy snake and so fly butterfly.
Canada got fluffs this week, including this alarming fluffin’ awesome jacket and two other colors. They also got 3 colors of the fluffiest vest.
New color of the coast wrap: chalky rose. Just for Canada right now.
Also in chalky rose: new beyond boundaries tank (plus 3 other colors). You have the option to tie the back. These tanks are in the US only, and the beyond boundaries pants are up too.
There was a random reappearance of the ace tennis capsule, including this pipe dream ace skirt. This bit of color is nice since the first release of the ace collection was only black and white, though this is the only pipe dream item right now out of the 3 pieces.
Other upload notes
The pink lemonade and blue snake cool racerbacks are both up in the US.
The go the distance jacket, vest, and 1/2 zip are up. The 1/2 zip is US only for now.
Cute new pace rivals in black wee stripe.
A mystic jungle cotton vinyasa showed up on the US side. Where did this come from? It was around ages ago in Canada. Literally, more than 6 months ago.
Canada got a new breeze by long sleeve style made of x-static/silverescent.
In addition to the regular rise WUC iii, I was surprised to see that Canada also got space dye twist sapphire wunder under crops in hi-rise. It’s always weird to me when they make a bunch of variations that are nearly identical of some print, but then don’t do something that seems obvious like a harbor blue cool racerback.
Still waiting on some of those recent, pretty stuff your bra colors in the US. Also, still no pretty plume rolldown wunder under pants.
Do you know which black tshirt is worn with herringbone CRB?
I think it’s the circadian short sleeve. It’s not out in North American but it’s in Asia here: http://www.lululemon.com.hk/products/clothes-accessories/women-tops/Circadian-SS-Tee
The photo of the model for the high times pants metta makes me laugh, it looks like she’s saying “is this how you run? like this?”
Hehe, totally!
US has the dark pique high times also
Oops you’re right!
Those crops are so meta…
Ba-dum-tsssssh… Apparently “metta” does have a meaning though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mett%C4%81
anyone want to fill me in on the stillness pant? i’m intrigued, but hesitant…
I read a couple people reporting the new stillness leg is a bit wider than the original stills. That’s about all I’ve heard.
I tried the Stillness Pant in a Canadian store… I was absolutely disappointed. I have never tried the old Stillness pants so I can’t say how it compares but it was such an unflattering pant. The legs were too wide and the roll down waist was too high and loose on my waist. For reference, I tried a size 4 and a 2, both were too loose for my liking. If the waist wasn’t so loose and high I would have maybe considered it.
I ordered a couple of items to try: the pink lemonade CRB, slate pique HTs (figured since I returned my cyber stripe naval HTs, I might as well give ’em a whirl), and later went back for the white run times. And this will be it for me for awhile, I’m afraid – unless maybe a bright blue or green CRB shows up. AA, I’m curious if you’ve received the ‘lumberjack’ scuba yet? If so, do you like it? I’m on the fence but have until Tuesday to return it…
The lumberjack has arrived, but I’m not at home to try it for a couple more days! I’d love a nice blue CRB too. Hoping for sapphire. My CRB stash needs it!
Ok, I’ll eagerly await your try-on report when you get home! Yeah, I looked at my CRBs and I have some pinks, a navy, bali breeze, and then some black and white prints. I’d like to expand my horizon a bit. Sapphire would be amazing!
Ohh yes a plain sapphire blue CRB would be awesome!!
The release of summer whites & pinks with down-filled warm jackets is very odd! I saw pink lemonade at the store in shorts, and it’s a very pretty color. For once, I think the name really reflects the color!
Is pink lemonade a neon color? It looks very pretty in the pictures, but I’m not really a fan of neon.
I think the pictures are true to life. I never even considered it to be neon until you asked. Now that I think if it, if you really hate neon, you may not love it. It seems much softer and not neon to me though.
Thanks! If it’s something in the vein of flash light, I would consider it neon-ish.
Anyways, I guess the best way to find out is to order something in pink lemonade to try out.
I think you should give it a try. I just got my pink lemonade CRB in the mail, and I don’t think it’s neon at all. And the color goes so well with so many other lulu colors (so pretty with bruised berry/iris flower). It’s really unlike any of my other pinks. The CRB is soft but a little sheer (but I’m okay with that).
I got a pair of speeds in pink lemonade. The pink is bubbly cute (just like its name) and like you said, not neon at all. Loving it and super happy :))
Ahhh, just what I need, yet another shade of pretty pink. :P I’ve seen a couple comparison photos and you’re right, it’s saturated but doesn’t look all that neon, much like actual lemonade. I’d like the pink lemonade stuff your bra, but there are doubts it’s coming to the US. :'(
White speeds are pretty but I’d ruin those in an instant!
I got the pique high times – textured bottoms are pretty much insta-buys for me though swallowing the $98 price tag is a bit tough. I suppose that will prevent from buying allthetexturedpants that Lulu puts out! I also got the high rise WUCs in the sapphire multi print but I’m not hopeful the stripes will align so those will likely go back.
Is it just me or are the puffer vests and jackets for this year not seem as well fitted as previous years’ collections?
I can’t imagine I’d keep them clean either, but as long as they could stay free from major, awful stains I’m not sure how much it’d bother me. I’d kind of like to buy some new herringbones this season because I regret having hemmed my pair from 2 yrs ago, but I’m afraid they’ll be high-rise (which I don’t like as much as regular rise), and the fact that I’d have to pay $10-$20 more than I paid for my first pair is really off-putting. We’ll see what comes up. As for the puffs, I don’t think they look less fitted, but I do think that having puff all around as opposed to rulu panels makes them look bulkier. The rulu panels in the fluff off stuff, for example, really helps slim the sides a bit, visually.
Ugh really the white speeds finally showing up when I’m gearing up for fall? Cruel.
Naturally. Seems like they might be too little, too late, seeing as they’re still available in all sizes. That, or they just made a boat load of them.
Do you think it has to do with their “back to basics” promotion? I noticed a few uploads ago they also randomly uploaded a white FTBW (and I had been looking for a while one for months!). Also noticed for both items the white color is at the beginning next to the black (versus towards the end where they usually have the new colors). So maybe it will be a fixed staple for awhile like the black? Just a thought…
The coast wrap pic with those pants – that whole outfit is a travesty. Looks like pajamas. Heard that the U.S. was not getting anymore Run Stuff bra’s in the near future. Don’t know why the U.S. got skunked on those this year. Doesn’t make sense why we got so few yet Canada and Australia got a boatload of options. The buyers for the different countries really don’t seem to have any clue as to what their people want to buy.
Noooooo I really wanted the peacock blue and pink lemonade RSYBs. :( I hope that’s not true but I fear you may be right. Sigh. I don’t even understand the necessity for different buyers in different countries (except maybe Aus). Silliness, and so frustrating for us die-hards.
White speeds, and the Lumberjack Scuba, which I had my friend in Switzerland order for me, since I didn’t act fast enough when they uploaded to US- ugh.
But at least I got a heathered cranberry CRB- I just hope it feels nice- (I’m still in Europe and ordering everything blindly).
Love the meta High Times, but have the tech mesh ones from a couple years ago in black, so will wait for another color- dark slate would be delish.
Picked up the Scuba II in butter pink as well- I think I’m getting paranoid they’re going to phase the II out soon, and the III just won’t work for me- it would look messy…..
Katelin mentioned there would be scuba ii’s available throughout this fall (and I think winter) season, but probably not in as many colors since it now has to compete with the scuba iii. And if it doesn’t sell well, I wouldn’t be shocked if they dumped it. I don’t blame you for stocking up!
