This week’s new stuff preview via Britt’s picks:
One of the weirdest pieces in a while: the city one piece, aka a yoga leotard (supposedly). It has a low back, a plunging front, AND high-cut leg holes to complete the trifecta of revealing features, so you’d have to be pretty bold to wear this on its own to yoga. Not to mention, yoga in a leotard just seems weird in general. I could see this working for ballerinas, maybe, especially with tights underneath.
New departure vest coming made of cotton fleece. I wonder if this was supposed to release with the departure capsule months ago? It’s a bit unclear from the pics where the vest begins and ends. I assume it’s just the black part, and the heathered grey is a scuba hoodie layered underneath. Looks a bit like a shorter version of the everything she wants vest.
Another color of the mudra scarf coming: inkwell/early blue in a plaid pattern. This could be nice.
Not sure how the peplum pullover is news considering another color was uploaded last week, and I’m not sure anyone *actually* bought it, but there you go.
The bomb bomber is a new medium-weight jacket designed to be weather-resistant. The plain, straight lines across the chest don’t do much for this model, it’s too bad they didn’t add any contouring or something like most of their puff jackets.
The warp knit short sleeve is coming. Bear in mind that, based on this being uploaded to other countries, it’s only sized S/M/L.
Finally, the warp knit tights in alberta lake are coming to North America. A lululemon store in Australia posted a couple pics of these already here and here. As with the SS, these are sized S/M/L.
The yoga party pant is already in US stores, but will apparently only be uploaded to Canada this coming week.
Finally a good solid colored CRB: black cherry! This was spotted in some Canada stores last night, but is only supposed to be uploaded to the US this coming week. This is a beautiful color and I will have to peruse through my wardrobe before upload to see how much it will actually match.
Lastly, the atomic red miss misty jacket appeared on the website briefly last week, but apparently it was some kind of mistake, because it was pulled shortly after being spotted. Looks like it will be back officially on Tuesday.
Okay- Lulu finally has my attention for the first time in what seems like forever.
I’m liking the Wild Tank and the cherry CRB, but hope the latter is not paper thin, since they’ve described it as ‘Lightweight Luon’. Any time Lulu uses those words, I get nervous. In any case, I’m excited to see next week’s upload- the boresville spell might just have ended :)
A lady who saw this in her Canada store said it was nice and thick!! :)
You would need very low rise tights under that leotard if you were going to wear it for ballet :) most ballet dancers I know hike their tights up just under their boobs so they don’t shift whilst you dance. Depending on the elastic it could work as swim wear…
Good point, I didn’t think about the tights sticking out of the low back.
Not a darn thing except that CRB but even thats not a must-have.
Actually, I’d wear that leotard onesie thing in the boudoir. It’s a little Kiki de Montparnasse meets ballet.
Haha, touche. It might work as going out attire if you put on a skirt over it or something. Actually, the first thing I thought of when I saw it was that it looked like a fashion bodysuit, just with much less coverage.
The city one piece could make for an interesting one piece swim suit when the kids have friends over and a little more modesty is required pool side. Other than that I can’t think of a use for it.
True, that could work! So long as it isn’t super-cheeky, anyway, which could kind of negate the modesty thing.
