Britt’s picks this week has some old news, but still a few new things to keep an eye out for.
The blazer vest is aptly named–looks like your dad’s blazer with the sleeves cut off. :) Odd that it looks like it’s coming in the burlap texture, since I thought burlap was over a while back. Also, this is another item demonstrating lulu’s recent love affair with oversized pockets. I’ll be interested to see what this looks like on people–if it’ll look cute or just massive and awkward.
Another thing I thought was over: pretty palm. That’s coming in new jet crops, which look like yet another tapered, saggy-crotch lounge pant, but this time in luxtreme.
Tracker shorts are coming in the inky floral print and the energy bra will be coming in blossom stripe.
Another new luon skirt: the city skirt, which has a split on the sides so that the back is just a little longer than the front.
Lastly, funky patchwork wunder under pants: the patches look like they’re made up of the sashico patterns and grey.

Major snooze Fest.

Totally agree. Can’t get excited about any of it. Just as well! Money saved.

I do wanna know what’s up with the blazer. At least some of their other stuff you can vaguely wear to and from workouts. But a blazer? Why would I be in workout clothes + a blazer??
AgentAthletica says
Seriously. I guess it’s their whole “studio to street style” schtick, like after yoga or barre or whatever. BUT STILL. I just…have a hard time picturing it not looking weird with the rest of their collection, like you mentioned.

I think the blazer vest is just bizarre, especially in the context of lululemon. If it was an Ann Demeulemeester ensemble I’d understand. I’m still pretty curious to see the educators modeling it for us!

I thought for a second “well, maybe you’ll just have to size down once or twice” but even then, if it was fitted, I still don’t think it would look right. This one might go the way of the tranquility jacket….
