Upload was weirdly early tonight, by like half an hour! Fortunately there didn’t appear to be any sell-outs in the interim time, otherwise I’m pretty sure some heads would’ve rolled. Wanderlust isn’t selling out ultra-fast (though the solid highest times are going surprisingly quickly), so they seem to have made plenty. That, or the demand has died down.
The Wanderlust stuff was the main schtick for tonight, including the popular tech mesh highest times pants, and the diversity bag shown here. There’s also the shala bra, casbah kimono, nook tank, and the towel. There was some concern the diversity bag was going to be priced at $128, but thankfully its $98, the same price it was sold in stores and at festivals before today.
I was surprised to see this new rue boheme bra pop up. You can see it has a Wanderlust logo, but I don’t remember seeing it anywhere else. It’s only on the US side.
This tank showed up in a few stock pics before this and lots of people seemed to want to know what it was. It’s the inner essence tank. Only in the US for now.
Canada got these new pretty plume wunder under crops. Take note that based on store pics today, these *do* vary in pattern placement, so you may need to go to a store or order several pairs if you’re picky.
The new pretty plume high times are also up but have basically sold out on both sides. In North America they’re calling them wrap mesh, but overseas they called them dance to yoga. They sold through faster in Canada than the special edition WAFS WUC, which kind of surprises me given how much of a frenzy there was for those in the US.
I was surprised to see there are no pretty plume WUP to be found tonight. I was suspecting they’d upload tonight since it fits well with the theme and color scheme of the dance to yoga line, but it looks like we’ll have to wait.
New dance to yoga edition wunder under pants. There are several weird things about this. First, random calf ventilation? Don’t love these cut-outs. Second, they’re like rolldowns on crack. The waist goes literally over your boobs if it’s not folded down, and can be basically a skirt if it’s folded fully. Also, even though they’re listed as pants, they’re only a 23″ inseam, which is just 1.5″ longer than WUC.
Pretty much all of the rest of the dance to yoga line (leotard shown above) uploaded as well, though the dance to yoga pants are only in Canada.
I’m digging this new bali breeze/silver spoon energy bra in Canada. The multi-colored straps on last year’s edition didn’t do much for me.
Other upload notes
– I noticed this week that the what’s new page on the US side is now in the same format as when you’re browsing a specific category and includes the navigation side bar, rather than going across the entire screen. Canada still has it the old way. New change, or website snafu?
– Canada got the special edition silver spoon WAFS wunder under crops! These are selling out surprisingly slowly after all the hype from when they dropped in the US.
– New vitasea striped vinyasas in the US.
– Alarming and dottie dash grain speed shorts are both in the US, though these were part of the sneaky/accidental Sunday upload, so that’s not super-new news. No size 2’s.
– The back spin stroke peacock blue inspire tights (also part of Sunday’s random upload) have been growing on me. Also US only.
– New mini pop stripe CRB in the US.
Got my festival bag. Had a gift card burning in my wallet so I had no excuse….
I feel like the only person on earth who has no desire for that bag! Too bad, cause I really need a new bag.
haha, I don’t blame you. Lulu bags are expensive. Might as well just save the money and get a nice Rebecca Minkoff or Kate Spade.
Thinking about getting RM’s amorous satchel. Stalked a few on Poshmark/eBay for decent prices, and I think it’ll fit my laptop when the need arises…
https://poshmark.com/listing/NWT-Amorous-Satchel-55401063d6b4a10ea5003030 Just got my offered accepted on this. Hope I like it!!! Much classier than my lulu “bowling bag” haha.
Nice! I just sold half of my RM collection on Poshmark! Keeping my smaller Mini MACs and Mini quilted affairs and my 5 zip though. I used to have a Lulu retro groove bag and my husband used to make fun of me because it totally looked like a bowling bag! haha.. Got rid of it so fast. lol
Hm. As excited as I was (and I even checked in early to make sure I didn’t miss anything, something I never do), now that it’s here I’m just not that interested in the Wanderlust stuff. I think this only proves that what I really want is the pretty plume – though I don’t feel like I’ve missed out on those high times because I’d rather have the WUC. Ah well, maybe next week.
After all the hype this week, I feel grateful that I was tempted by nothing! It’s nice to have a break. Also, if you didn’t know already, another commenter noted that the gusset on the pretty plume WUC is black. D:
Dang it lulu, you’re succeeding at making me not spend my money. That black gusset is a terrible idea.
My poor credit card :( Got the Diversity bag, Nook tank, Pretty Plume High Times, special edition WAFS WUPs to try out. The kimono in XS was already sold out while I was browsing so at least I saved $128 there and after looking at the website pics, it’s not as cute as I thought it would be.
Yeah, I think the kimono is a tough look to pull off. No loss, it seems, and plenty else to keep you entertained for the week. :)
Argh missed the pretty plumes! But got the diversity bag so I suppose it was still a win? Totally thought the bag would have sold out first but its still there a few hours into the upload. Anybody know if the pretty plume high times will be in stores in US? Glad I got the naval *highest times yesterday as I see those have sold out now too.
Side note totally agree with you on the bali breeze energy – I like this year’s version better and I think I might have to snag to match my CRB
The pretty plumes are going to be in stores so you could probably snag one if you still “need”. :) I’m planning to get a bali energy bra, too. Loving all things bali lately.
Couldn’t resist the diversity bag!
That seems to be a common theme this week. :)
I bought the Diversity Bag in the print. It sold out in Canada by normal upload time. I was in store today and tried on the WAFS WUs. I usually wear an 8 in WUs (even though I’m more of a 10 by dimensions) but since I’ve put on a few pounds since the spring I tried the 10s. The waist just about comes up to my armpits. Easy, easy pass. I could have sized down to 8, but I didn’t love them.
I also checked out the Plume WU crops. They had one 8 and one 10 and both had very white butts. I didn’t even try them on.
My warehouse items arrived this week (5 just for me), so I’ve bought enough lately to not really be tempted by anything out there. I’m ready for fall items.
Could’ve sworn the bag was still there by the time I checked Canada side, but I could be wrong. Fall officially starts next week (for lulu I mean) so you’ll get your wish soon…
The rolls owns on crack are a dancer-specific style, AA! I wore those long before my LLL days.
I would’ve thought dancers would wear a separate skirt and tights?
Extra layer of tights over your usual pink (or black) tights. You can never be too warm! I looooved the citta knit pants that came out in the fall – same idea. I’m not sure about the iteration in luon though.
Since the Diversity Bag was still available 2+ hours after upload time, I hesitantly ordered it. I am in need of a new bag, but I’m on the fence as to whether or not I’ll keep it. I wish they had offered the winged mosaic print in a bottoms style sans mesh. Ah, well! Was hoping to see the pretty plume WUP/Cs – maybe next week. Oh, and the new product pics are really starting to bug. Why are they all so far away??
Yeah, there were some all-winged mosaic WUP at the WL festivals, but they weren’t sold anywhere else. Also, agree, the new product pics seem to be either too far away, too close, or off-centered so you can’t see the whole thing. Hopefully they’ll get better at taking them as the weeks go by.
Claimed I wasn’t interested, but the print diversity bag is still available, against my expectations – ugh, I’m so tempted.
What’d ya decide?
Sold out pretty soon after I posted, so the decision was made for me!
Did anyone notice the gusset on the pretty plume wuc? It’s black! Big contrast to the mostly white bottom and crotch area. Why, oh why, lulu?
Ughhhh contrast gussets are the worst. :( Who wants to draw attention to their crotch?!
I scored the diversity bag in coal, but I really wanted the print :( anyone wanna trade? lol.
