Definitely not as interesting of an upload this week as last week. Not really feelin’ much of what was uploaded, but I’m also not really feelin’ life right now because I have some half-assed flu situation aaaaall up in my business. So, take my lack of enthusiasm how you may.
As the title implies, just about every print was floating around in tonight’s upload: mystic jungle, seaside silver fox, moody mirage, desert snake… Along with that, a whole host of other colors are floating around too. It also seemed to be a somewhat larger upload, so there’s quite a few things I don’t mention here (more than usual, anyway).
Props to lulu for having the good sense to make the seva sweater in nice colors, including harbor blue (pictured) and black cherry.
New define jackets in heathered black and, yup, black cherry. US only.
Two new chevron ebb to street pants: heathered slate and heathered naval blue. No 2 or 12 in naval and both of these are US only.
Mystic jungle hawk blue wunder under pants on the US side. No 2 or 12 in these.
While I’m on the subject, I’ve heard speculation come up numerous times that lulu might be phasing out/excluding the size 12 because they have some moral/personal vendetta against larger ladies. One need only take note that there are just as many items missing a 2 as there are missing a 12 (which I note here often) to blow that theory wide open. The lack of fringe sizes in some items probably has more to do with them simply not selling as well, or perhaps factory issues.
The find your bliss jacket is still too ugly for me to even. Even the moody mirage print can’t save this monstrosity.
New mind your practice leg warmers are available in Canada in new strawberry milkshake color mixed with bark berry. These leg warmers look virtually identical to the om onward leg warmers I bought last year, except these are cotton instead of boolux.
This refine bra in Canada is an interesting design. It’s made of practice cotton, sort of reminiscent of the live natural bra.
Heathered naval blue inspire tights in Canada, plus the heathered black pair that have been in stores this week.
Other upload notes:
– The rise and shine jackets are in the US now.
– Silver fox fo drizzle is in Canada.
– The we like to cardi is on both sides.
– Canada got a random upload of heathered black herringbone wunder under pants.
– Heathered slate/raspberry glo and harbor blue wild tanks are in the US, and Canada got fatigue/mystic jungle.
– For some reason, lulu seems to only make size 2 energy bras in spring/summer. That time of year seems to be back, as the moody mirage bark berry energy bra is available in a 2. Party tiiiime.
– Also in “stuff I like” news: the menthol speed shorts with brush strokes waistband uploaded in the US. Also, the plum peach/blushed illusion aka 80s speeds. Need to decide whether I will be able to scrape up the funds for the menthol because I want.
– Nice new deep navy scuba hoodie in the US, and mystic jungle hawk blue in Canada.
– More US-only janks: desert snake bark berry CRB. (Almost every time I mistype it as “desert snark” because of the snake + bark. I think I like “desert snark” much better as a color name…)
– Cyber stripe inspire crops are in Canada, although lots of people have been complaining about the mismatched stripes at the butt, which I agree is a pretty unfortunate oversight for $100 run crops.
Love the moody mirage energy bra! Also love the pace pusher LS in heathered slate…will need to decide whether to return the black I got for the slate. Not sure what I think of the new pace rival skirt now that it looks more like the pacesetter. Will need to try it on in the store. Nothing for me tonight though.
I like the idea of the moody mirage bra, but in practice I’m not sure what it would actually match, so I’m rethinking it.
Maybe it’s boring of me but I think it’d look nice with loose dark grey and black tanks. I didn’t actually think it over, but that’s what I immediately pictured.
Agree. I love it, but it wouldn’t go with any of my current wardrobe. Too bad!
I’m interested enough in the navy ebb to street chevrons to give them a try…
People seemed to really like the previous chevron ebb to streets so you might be in luck. :)
I got the harbor blue inspires and menthol speeds today and debating on a wild tank in harbor blue as I love this shade.
Haha, oops indeed. :) I’m on a hair trigger for the menthol speeds…ugh. I’ve bought so many new speeds lately though! Sigh.
My small chested friends and I mass ordered the Menthol FTBs :) OMG finally a FTB that I love. I would not feel so depressed now if Stained Glass Love FTB in Menthol/Pink never made an appearance.
Ordered the Harbor Blue SSs too. I’m convinced by the Menthol SSs’ waistband that the HB SSs would indeed look awesome with my bali breeze/surge/mint moment CRBs. Can’t wait for the SSs to arrive now.
Too bad Vintage Pink SSs didn’t make an appearance. :(
The menthol FTB is so pretty! Like you said, nice consolation price if the SG never shows. I’m glad the vintage pink didn’t show up–don’t need more ways to be tempted to part with my $$, lol. :) I can’t remember if we already discussed this, but apparently the liner is often visible in the VP speeds, so that’s a shame. They may end up being a return for me for that reason, but I’ll have to see IRL first.
Picked up the Wild Tank in harbor blue, Ebb to Street Tank in deep navy and the Scuba in navy. I’ve decided I’m gonna let my denim majestic Scuba go- I much prefer a true navy, as compared to the darker royal blue….
Sorry you’re sick :( I’m recovering from the flu myself. It’s been a while, and I was totally knocked out.
Funny you were unimpressed by this week’s upload, I was tempted by so much! Moody mirage energy bra, navy scuba, harbor blue inspires, blue wild tank… I even like the seva sweater, which I didn’t expect. I don’t even remember last week’s upload except for the gorgeous harbor blue speeds you bought.
I haven’t ordered much this year, but I did get a black cherry crb which I just received. I don’t love the color as much as I expected. I’ll check it out again in the morning but might be a return for me.
Yeah, I’m sure mindset has a lot to do with upload excitement levels. I have now transitioned my sickness theory away from flu and more toward gastroenteritis of some kind. Force-feeding myself rice and lots of fluids. Super fun times over here, as you can imagine. :)
I’m sad that I was willing to fork over $90 for blue inspires, and they decided not to offer it in size 2. Guess Alala will be getting my money for their blue crops instead after all. PS – anyone else waiting to see if Yogasmoga will be offering 40-50% off again for their anniversary?
I didn’t even notice they weren’t in a 2. : Btw, if it’s not too late, I found Alala’s crops to run a bit bigger than lulu’s 2, just as a heads up. They might fit a bit more like a 4, especially through the legs. Also, looks like no dice for YS’s anniversary–their giveaway definitely seems to be their big push right now.
