This week’s edition of what we love is here:
New free to be wild bra in a new print: jazzy white gator green. Lulu has been experimenting with a lot of mismatched straps lately, and this bra takes it a step further with this asymmetrical strap arrangement. (Speaking of asymmetrical: the bra looks crooked in the front picture…)
It looks like June will be a pretty green-heavy month. Dragonfly (seen in some swim items a couple months ago) is coming in a couple of things, pistachio was seen on a CRB this week, gator green is coming, and even a little bit of toothpaste on swim items below. The dragonfly what the sport singlet is a bit see-through in these pics, but it’s a nice bright and summery color. Speaking of nice colors: space dye swiftly racerback in iris flower. This is a really pretty shade that would match a lot. Katelin notes there will be lots of swiftlies uploaded this week.
Here’s more of that green I promised: runbeam hoodie coming in dragonfly. There’s another new color coming into the swim mix, too: grapefruit. In these pics it looks pretty pink.
New define jacket coming in wee are from space silver spoon. They seem to be doing lots of neutral define jackets since this jacket was brought back a few months ago.
Another core item in a new color: rolldown wunder under crops in floral sport. A similar version of this print first showed up on some trackers in Europe a couple weeks back. This color scheme really doesn’t work for me.
More swim is coming. Here’s toothpaste again, paired with another new print: sketch palm. This print looks kind of cute, though I don’t know if it will show up on things besides the swim-related items.
Grapefruit looks a lot more orange on these items than it does on the sun runner LS pic above. There’s a new cross back salty swim top coming, with an adjustable hook closure in the back instead of a tie. Although it’s not specified, the coverage looks similar to the tie top that’s already out, maybe slightly more.
Love the iris flower swiftlies. Also happy to see more upf run long sleeves, since mine are in heavy rotation.
I bet iris flower would look great in a tonka stripe version of a swiftly too!
1. WHERE IS MY POSEIDON ENERGY BRA? only in my dreams. 2. the iris flower superb long-sleeve is a DELIGHT. i think it’s already sold out online in this color, but it really is quite comfortable and will work as a thin layer for lifting days or an easy top for summer nights. win-win.
I’m surprised there hasn’t been any kind of poseidon energy bra yet. So strange! Glad the iris flower is a win, though. :)
Hey Suzanne, just giving you a head’s up….I tried on the Salty Swim Sport Top and Hipster in Jeweled Magneta in the GR location. As of now, I don’t think I’m going to put fit photos on my blog……I just wanted to note that it was a very solid swimwear piece. I bought a size 6 in both pieces. The top didn’t dig into my back at all and it fit my 33D chest (so I’m assuming it might be a half size large). I was in-between the 6 and 8 in the bottoms, but the 8 was just too loose. I needed one for stand up paddle boarding and didn’t want it sliding down. Overall, I was pretty impressed. I think the price is pretty reasonable compared to LSpace/Vitamin C….. The bottoms have a little bit of cheekiness, but not nearly as bad as Roxy/Billabong/O’Neill/etc.
I’m glad it seems they’re moving in the right direction. My “situation” unfortunately needs a lot of support and shaping to look ok, so right now I’m leaning toward something with a bit more structure (really liked Seafolly’s goddess tops when I tried them on last summer). We’ll see though. I have til a trip in August to figure it out, haha.
I love the Seafolly Goddess bikini….especially since the rear is pretty modest! I keep trying it on every season…I always mean to buy it but end up with something else. It does have a lot of structure. The VS ones do too…I bought two more this year, but I didn’t want underwire for everything.
I was looking for something that fit similar to a sports bra. Usually Lulu’s have too little support in front and/or give me back fat. When I tried to size up, the band was bigger, but not the cup size….so too small cups with too large of a band. That’s why I was shocked that this one actually worked for me and looked cute.
Hope you’ll get the goddess!
Yes and I need a swimsuit for a trip with the in-laws so…modesty will be pretty important, hah. Underwires are a no go for me, so it can be tough to find something that’s structured and supportive without a wire. That’s one reason I like the goddess. I’m actually going to be in Vegas in 2ish weeks aka shopping mecca, so I might be able to try out a bunch of other brands then. But it’s Vegas, so maybe I won’t be able to find anything appropriate, lol…
