This week’s what we love highlights the new &go capsule, some of which we saw on international sites the past couple of weeks.
One item that we actually haven’t seen is the &go destination hoodie. It’s not often you see a cotton fleece jacket with a stowable hood, so that’s an interesting choice here. The slightly ruffled back reminds me a bit of the ruffled scuba hoodie from 2 years ago. Based on this photo, it looks like this cut might work a little bit better on shorter shoppers. The length looks just a tad shrunken on the model.
On a similar note, there’s also a new &go destination jacket. The flared silhouette echoes the hoodie above, but this one is designed for bad weather. Note that it features sealed seams, which is a nice weather-proofing feature.
The &go where to dress looks pretty much like your standard t-shirt dress, but it’s made of rulu!
The &go where to skirt is made of rulu, too. It has a subtle zip pocket and reflectivity as added features. (You can see pics of those on the Australia website.)
The new city trek trousers have a potentially cute cropped, tailored fit. I just wish they didn’t choose the back pockets that they did. Oh well. The &go city joggers are pretty similar–ankle length, slightly looser fit. The city jogger pants came out in some form a couple months ago, but I’m not sure if they ever made it to the US, or if it was just Canada.
Lastly for this week’s feature, a couple of technical pieces. It’s nice to see some little snippets of more colorful pieces, since the palette has felt a bit subdued lately–the bright accents are nice. Canada will be getting a pretty sapphire blue swiftly 1/2 zip–this style is popular this time of year so I imagine this being on lots of people’s “buy” list. As for the US, we’ll get an energy bra in new color bon bon, a nice bright pink. If my memory serves, this is the first item we’ve seen this color on aside from some random socks a few weeks back. This pink has a lot more red in it than we’ve seen lately, especially compared to flash light and pink lemonade (here’s a photo of the pink lemonade energy bra for comparison). I like the bon bon color itself, but I’m not sure whether I’ll go for the contrasting straps.
I agree re: the bon bon energy bra. If it was a solid color, I’d be all over it. The rest of the stuff featured is kind of blah IMO.
They’ve made very few solid energy bras lately, it’s sad! At least with this one, the contrast straps are kind of a tone-on-tone situation instead of a totally different color, so that helps a little for matching purposes.
I actually like this &go capsule. The dress, skirt and hoodie are all up my alley. Plus who can resist a rulu dress?! I also like the bon bon energy bra. It’s the first one in a long time I’ve had any interest in. Looking forward to next weeks upload!
Yeah, both the dress and the skirt are understated, which makes them really versatile. Wondering if we’ll see a long sleeve rulu dress anytime soon…
