I tried this jacket on today in a size down (size 8 from my usual size 10) and it was still pretty roomy. I'm certain I could easily size down to a 6 in this (shocking!) and it would still have a relaxed look to it. I didn't hate this jackets cut, and seam details, but the material is really light weight for Lululemon's typical glyde fabric, and it is very matte and wrinkly. I don't mind the matte look of it but the wrinkled look of the fabric really bothers me. I've also noticed this tendency to wrinkle with the On The Fly Pant in Deep Olive. The OTF pant is made of a stiffer version of full on luxtreme and at the lower leg it was very creased.
Concrete Jungle Wunder Under Pant Nulux, Go Lightly Shoulder Bag, Cut Above Tee
Oh my God that Cut Above shirt is so horrible. It's so matronly, it adds years to that woman in the sunglasses.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I absolutely love about my wardrobe is that it is mainly wrinkle free. I love that my LLL clothing is what I would call eco friendly in that 99% of it does not need to go in the dryer. I would never consider buying anything that was prone to wrinkling and this glyde fabric once wrinkled stays wrinkled. The Cut Above top does not look good at all from the front with too much fabric under the arms and the dropped shoulder seams just isin't a good look with heavier fabric, especially on me and the high split front to back is one big flap in front. The back was the only part of the top that looked alright but overall this top is a big miss design wise.
ReplyDeleteHate isn't a strong enough word for the things coming out from LLL these days. Matronly, forgettable, sloppy. All of these clothes say "I'm terrified of leaving my comfort zone."
ReplyDeleteYeah, they're giving us two looks: cropped and Eileen Fisher.
DeleteOt but was there a wmtm for Canada today....other than couple swim items didn't see much new stuff...not that there's much I am waiting for
ReplyDeleteI think they keep taking off and re-adding the same 20 items, while leaving about 65-70 the same week after week. I thought I only saw 1 or 2 items that weren't there before. They need to bite the bullet and seriously drop the prices of these leftover items that have been there for months. Clearly, no one wants them at those prices and personally I'm sick of seeing them.
DeleteCouple of the prices on WMTM were dropped by $10 (to $89 from $99), but still there are no takers. My prediction is that all that crap languishing on WMTM will be pulled at some point and redirected to the outlets, rather than substantially lower prices on the website. I did buy the Vinyasa wrap, which I'm happy with, and the newly appeared Hit it tank, which had good reviews. I strictly buy only on sale. The last dud I bought was a pair of Nulux tights, which slid down on me during exercise, but a GEC said I could return them.
DeleteI bought Long Distance tank in Pebble Jaquard today . It's very flattering and could be worn outside of gym. I'm planning to wear it with my white Speeds and denims skirt. I'm a size 4 in lulu tops and it runs tts
ReplyDeleteThey need to revise their return policy with wmtm. In my opinion plus make their regular one unlimited.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the concrete wup went up to $128...I bought them at $98 at upload. Perhaps that's a new strategy. . Price them lower on upload to entice us to order them...and now I will think twice about returning them.
ReplyDeleteThe long distance tank kinda reminds me of the lucky tank...and no the fast lane singlet which I love. Just need some fun colours.
Kinda glad not much on wmtm..need a break lol. Have 1 item I didn't get on 21% day so now gotta wait for markdown.
Maybe old news to everyone else, but I just saw that the original CRBs are now available in about 4 colors as an online only item.
ReplyDeleteAnyone try on/purchased the "on the fly" jacket? I see it online and think it's cute but none of the stores carry it.
ReplyDeleteLLM, I think you need to get used to the fact that your hard work is causing you to be in between sizes! I think you're going to be a TTS 8 very soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you! yes that is exactly it. I'm completely in between 8 and 10 at this weight and the 8's are slightly too small/snug and the 10 is too big in the chest/arms/sleeve length. Frustrating place to be
ReplyDeleteI've been there! It's so frustrating but a good frustration. I have some tights I love (because of pattern) but now they are too big. The bunch at the knees, too much folding at the hip when bending and the waist slips. I ended up going 2 sizes down. I'm still not used to it. Hopefully, I settle down at this size. I wouldn't want to go down to a size 2.
DeleteYou're looking really great! Your problem is a good problem to have.
What hat is she wearing in the first pic?
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 12:58pm: It's the Baller Hat but I don't think they offer it in that color right now.
DeleteThank you!
DeleteThat's not the Sole Training Short Sleeve
