In-Store Try-on Reports!

First up! The &go Everywhere LS. I liked this, but didn’t LOVE it. In my head, because it’s made of Seriously Light Luon, I wanted it to fit loosely like my 105 F singlets. It does not. As stated on the tag, it is “slim fit.” Very comfortable although I felt a little exposed- I don’t love the v-neck. Pretty easy “no.”

  

  

Next up,  the Healthy Heart Pullover II. This Coco Pique is glorious, as usual. I expect to see a lot of this in the coming months. This was cozy, comfy and just too pretty, in my opinion. The reason I had to say no was more just a selection thing: I can’t get everything! But also: I don’t love the elastic band on the bottom. I would prefer that this fall more naturally. 

   

  

Next!  I know I’ve written previously about these before. They’re relatively new, Terry Scuba Hoodies. I like them 🙂 They’re soft, but not too warm.

   

       
 

Finally, my pick of the day, the Stress Less Hoodie. Huge fan. So cozy. Falls well. So comfy. 

   
   
  

Lululemon Outfit of the Day- 56

I’m up early today! I took this at the gym.

Here I’m wearing a heathered Bleached Coral 105 F singlet, a Stuff Your Bra in Flowabunga Bleached Coral & black  Fast Track shorts. I love these shorts. They’re like a bra. For your butt.  

Reminds me of this episode of the Simpsons where Homer goes to the gym. I haven’t been in forever!

Lululemon Outfit of the Day- 54

Hello Internet people! today I’m wearing my Parallel Stripe Wunder Under Crops with a Scuba in Commuter Denim Black, a plain black Cool Racerback & a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Litas. Once again, the necklace is from BaubleBar. Thanks for looking!
  

The Align Pant- New Colors now in-store!

I’ll admit, I was tempted. I went TWICE to the store to try on the Align pant. They were practically all gone by the time I arrived Monday afternoon, the first time, and I tried my normal size, but I’m between sizes right now, so I figured I’ll wait until they get re-stocked in my “between sizes” size, and try them again.

The next time that happened was about a week later, and this did not change my opinion of them. They feel amazing, but I am just not quite sold. First off, I don’t love high-waisted pants. I have a couple of pairs in a select print or two, and while I don’t love the high waist, I get a lot of use out of them because I love the print. Second, while the fabric is exceptionally soft, I don’t like the way they feel. I want them to feel like a Wunder Under, and they don’t, so it’s really just a couple of preference issues so far. The third reason I don’t love them is because the fabric feels thin to me and, fourth, I read online that it attracts dog hair quite easily. I have a white dog. This would not go well with these pants. Fifth, the fabric at the ankle is bunchy, I guess if I were taller that this might not be a problem, but it bothered me, I even took a picture.


That said, yet another reason I did not buy them was because they’re boring. I have a pair of black Wunder Unders, I also have a few pairs of other black pants. I don’t need more black in my wardrobe.

With regards to size- if you’re between sizes like me, go with your smaller size.

So, as per the title of this post, it’s good to see that Lulu has manufactured and is now stocking, in-store, Align Pants with colored waistbands. Honestly, they are so so soft, and while I still probably won’t rush out to buy them, at least this is a step in the right direction. If they throw a great print on them, like the cherry cheeta one I saw in this bra I spoke about recently, well, I might have to pick up a pair.


Here they are, in store- I think the blue is Saphire and the pink looks like Pink Shell but is likely not.

What do YOU think about the Align pants? Have you tried them? So many people are enjoying them! I’d love to hear your opinion.
