Upload 12/30: Motivate, Stress Less, And Other Cotton Stuff

December 30, 2014 / 25 Comments

Another early upload–almost an hour early, in fact.  Another really boring upload for the US.  Canada’s wasn’t a lot more exciting.

LW9189S_016656_1

Canada was lucky enough to get the caspian blue/inkwell mini check pique vinyasa scarf.  None yet for US.

US finally got the parallel stripe CRB!  I might be getting this one but am not sure yet.  It’s the only thing I might be interested in tonight. (Edit to add: lol jk, didn’t notice at first there’s no 2 in this.  @#*$.  There’s no 12 either, but both sizes are available in Canada.  Come on lulu, get it together.)

Neutral blush was also uploaded.  Neither country has gotten the solid menthol that popped up in Australia yet.

The infamous stress less hoodie is up on both sides.  I might like this if I had infinite money, but it’s too similar to the rest day PO I already have to justify throwing down another $98.

For some reason, US did not get a size 2 in plum peach but Canada did.  Go figure.

The stress less pants uploaded to US, although I’m not sure if anyone actually cares.

The motivate capsule uploaded in pieces.  US and Canada both got the tank, and Canada also got the pants and crops.

US got the breezy tank in black and divided stripe grey.  No pretty purple or the green stripe seen in stores.

Yet more cotton things: the live natural bra is in Canada.  It’s marked as a second edition, but I don’t know what changes were made from the previous release earlier this year.  I kind of like the subtle not-quite-neutral look of pretty purple and grey together, although this bra would never work for me.

Atomic red atomic floral high times pants in Canada.

Other upload notes:

– Where the hell are my menthol stained glass love and solid menthol speeds??? *cries*

– In fact, there were no new speeds at all this upload.

– Both US and Canada got oil slick blue lotus camo WUP.  There’s also oil slick blue lotus camo groove shorts.

– Forward fold trousers.  I don’t even know.

– Both sides got the atomic red atomic floral tracker shorts.  Canada also got animal swirl deep coal trackers.

– Only the US got the resolution hobo, and it only went up in solid black so far.

– US did get the atomic floral festival bag, though.

– Canada got the back up long sleeve.

– Canada also got the atomic red define, although not in a 2 or 12.  I don’t remember if US got those sizes in atomic red.  Despite the stock photos, a commenter noted that this is very orange in real life (probably much like the race with grace).

– US got all 4 namaskar hoodies.

– The laser cut WUC showed up in the US even though they were first seen in stores in September.  Logistics fail.

– The rain or shine jacket is also now in the US.

    Pretty boring upload again…I really wanted that scarf but no such luck for the U.S. Perfect for transitioning into spring. Maybe next week…

      Yeah the vinyasas have usually been pretty similarly timed for uploading in US vs Can, so I would bet it’ll be here next week, maybe the week after.

    Nothing for me… I was going to get the Stress Less hoodie because everyone else is going ape shit over it on the boards, but meh, $98 is a bit much. If it goes on MD maybe.

      Given the ape-shit-ness you mentioned, I’ll be curious to see if it sells out relatively quickly (like the cabin yogi LS–dammit) or if it lingers and lingers. I’m not sure if I’d even be able to justify it on MD, but I’ll be watching out for it anyway.

        The peach is already sold out which is surprising since nothing has been really selling out on upload day as of late (at least in the US). I remember over a year ago staying up late for upload and trying to check out like a madwoman for green bean stuff and milky way WUCs. Seems like those days are gone. lol

          I’m really surprised the peach sold out so fast. I wish they had made one in alberta lake, that would’ve been a killer color. And yeah, I don’t feel like I have to rush for anything anymore. It kind of lulls me into a false sense of security, though, because then I end up waiting days (weeks?) to decide on something and it disappears. Oops.

    I’m interested in the stress less hoodie, but I can’t pick a color so I’ll wait to try it on, I guess. Or skip it because $98.

    I’ve been waiting every upload for a pair of passion crops in a color I like and for the light grey open your heart ls (I actually prefer the new iteration)…

      I like the light grey color, but I don’t think it’s special enough for $98. They should do an alberta lake passion crop. That would be really nice.

        Thanks! I was leaning toward the light grey or inkwell but I think you helped me decide, if I do get one. I do worry that it will sell out because of this frenzy I keep hearing about…

        OT – I never tried a dance studio jacket. Am I missing out…?

        edit: I wasn’t interested in the peach hoodie, but they’re gone! Did they sell out?? I’m slightly shocked.

    Oh, I love the stress less hoodie but am making myself look away. I saw a white CRB was uploaded & actually don’t have a white one, but my size 6 is already sold out!

      I wonder if it sold out or if it wasn’t uploaded in the first place, much like the mysterious missing size 2/12 PS CRB…

    None of the Stress Less hoodie colors interested me, and why did that Movement tank have to have that unattractive front seam? Pass on everything.

      Yeah, front seam on the tank is way awkward, not sure why it needed to be there.

    Got the caspian blue vinyasa and a stress less in the dark grey colourway to try on….it’s not so much a logistics fail as it is more of a west coast port issue. Lulu (along with many other companies) have a lot of their goods stuck in port which likely account for the meagre, odd sizing or out of place item uploads.

      I hope that is indeed the reason things have been so haphazard. I guess you could still call it a logistics fail, just not one that lulu controls, lol. I hope the Powers That Be can sort something out with that situation and uploads magically become normal again. It’s weird to me that, in the case of the laser WUC anyway, they were in stores but not uploaded. Maybe they got part of their stock and decided it was worth releasing halfway. I don’t know.

    would love to hear y’all’s thoughts on the namaskar hoodie. has anyone tried it on? good piece or skip?

      I’ve heard a handful of good things about it, but I think the price point is steep. Animal swirl might sell out at full price, but I imagine a lot of the other colors might get MD’d.

    OT – I ordered the heathered white herringbone WUPs because I read some comments saying the gray stitching looks fine in person. I actually disagree – I just received them and even though the gray isn’t quite as dark as the black, it’s still just too dark and I just wouldn’t be comfortable wearing them with such a stark contrast of colors drawing the eye to certain areas. It’s too bad b/c the fabric is very nice!

      Yeah, it seems to me that the seams might be better than the black, but still too conspicuous to me. Too bad.

      I believe so. It’s after Christmas now, and there hasn’t been any indication of a second upload. I’ll be checking anyway, just to be safe, but I’m not expecting anything.
