Pranayama scarves are arriving in stores. This is from a US store but I hear they’re also in Canada. This is the deepest cranberry/deep coal. [Lululemon Center 1]

Urban sanctuary bag in deepest cranberry, nightfall, and black. All the pics I’ve seen so far as from Canada stores, not sure if these are getting to US stores yet or not. [Lululemon Saskatoon]
Do you happen to know what US store had the mini check pique vinyasa?
Hi, Brooke. It was the fashion island store in Newport Beach, CA.
I saw the cranberry bag in the US.
Good to know! I’m going to a store tomorrow (yesssssssss) so hopefully they’ll have it for me to check out.
Oh, boy! I hope you find a prize (and get a new swiftly!). Have fun!
I did get a new swiftly! They had pigment in my size, I am so excited about it. I almost found a prize at Lorna Jane but guilted myself out of the $150 price tag. :( Pics tomorrow when I’m not dead-tired.
Yay! Glad they had it. I look forward to the report :)
Since I’m trying (*cough*) to do a spending detox, lately when there’s something like that that I want, I ask myself, “Would I rather have this, or…” and it could be another item that I have, or want, or it could be a saving goal (money toward a house…) and I usually feel good about not getting it in the end.
I’ve explored a little at LJ and have found that I love their Slouchy Gym Tank. I have one, and it gets major rotation. I’d definitely recommend it. In general, though, I don’t think the brand’s really for me, and their bras don’t work for me (I know they’re a huge draw for others).
I often try to ask myself those same questions. Like, $80 could buy these pants, or it could buy xyz (2 dinners out? most of a pair of new crossfit shoes? 40 boxed brownie mixes?). Sometimes it helps, and sometimes it just makes me frustrated that I don’t have money for all of it. :P Next time I’m near an LJ I’ll have to look for the slouchy gym tank, though.
My guess is you’ll have more leeway soon enough :) I’m 29 (almost 30!), and there’s no way I could’ve bought all that I’m buying when I was a few years younger (and consider myself lucky that I have it now!). And it sounds like you’ve got something cooking.
Also… full disclosure, I did not ask those questions when I bought the grey mini check vinyasa ;) (Oh and since I’m really loving working with a trainer lately, that’s a pretty easy comparison for me. Yet another pair of crops, or more training sessions? But it occurs to me that I’m also thinking about it as the things that I *can* do with my money instead of the restriction I’m placing on myself…)
Okay sorry if this was really boring. Such is what fills my mind these days.
I certainly hope you’re right. And not to worry, my brain is composed of approximately the same things, I’m not bothered. :P I think the most frustrating thing is that even when I was a grad student living off of a measly stipend, I had some wiggle room and I could expand my lulu budget through selling, etc. Even if I had to work towards things slowly, there was always a way to make it work. Not so since I moved this year. No matter how much I sell or how much I hustle, there is always something more important that I should be using the $$ on versus new lulu or whatever (although of course I still get stuff here and there–usually after selling off more than the new thing cost and a huge helping of guilt). So, that financial disempowerment is very frustrating. This has been a personal vent. :) Hopefully I’ll somehow be magically rich in like 2-5 years and I can just laugh about this while rolling in piles of all the spandex I could ever want.
Haha – that last line totally made me laugh out loud in public! I’m rooting for you! I see where you’re coming from, though and I’m glad we can vent to each other :) (Sometimes, I do think, my poor brain… it used to have something else in it… I swear!)
Hong Kong upload…
Yup saw it right when I got home from the gym!! :)
