Spotted in Canada: yet another free to be wild bra. The color code PCFZ is probably peach fuzz. Here’s a tank in peach fuzz from a few months ago. The straps look like both dottie dash and ace spot. Definitely not the prettiest FTBW if you ask me. Also, why has lulu now made two orange-ish FTBWs (the other being creamsicle pop) but NO blue? So strange.

Sooo.. Am I the only one who is not completely loving lulu right now? Here’s one for the lulu problems vault: when you get a bunch of gift cards (Crossfit coach) for your bday, but can’t even use them. (I’m completely aware of how this sounds and that this is not really a “problem”).
The colors are so.. meh. And the styles. I wish they would bring back the old stuff. Even with my tried and true, ex. speed shorts, I can’t even guarantee I’ll like the fit now because of the weird flare that happen by the thigh. It’s spring, almost summer- I want bright, happy colors! I wish they would bring back more of the 105 singlet because the what the sport is such a weird fit across the boobs.
Btw, I love your blog. I stumbled across it and read it regularly. This is just my vent after being slightly disappointed with today’s upload. I do like some of the bra/bra colors, but I truly don’t need anymore of those!

I feel those feels! I’ve had less lulu money than usual the past few months, and it’s actually worked out pretty well for me since all this stuff is fug so I don’t have to feel like I’m depriving myself since I’m mostly not tempted anyway. There are a couple things that are calling to me tonight (mostly bras) but I haven’t pulled the trigger yet. At least gift cards don’t expire. :) Maybe there will be hope when the summer previews start to trickle in next week.
They are really overdoing with the Free to Be Wild. It’s like they forget that they have other bra styles and are only focusing on that one. It’s boring and there are way too many FTBW’s around.
Financially, I can see it making sense since almost every FTBW has sold like hot cakes. They’re definitely slowing down now, though, since I think a lot of the novelty has worn off. That said I definitely agree the other bra styles are sort of languishing right now. Most of the energy bras (my favorite and basically the only style I can wear) are pretty uninspired or even ugly.
But it’s popularity is what makes the least sense about the quantity of colors. Many things at Lulu sell like hotcakes and we get terribly few of those items. Why have they decided to flood the market with dozens of FTBW this year? It’s weird.
Good point! I suppose I can’t pretend to understand their rationale…
An animal print/fresco blue FTBW would be the tits (at least I find myself hilarious).
I see what you did there.
