Review! Run All Day Backpack in Windy Wash!

Over the weekend when I went to try on the Align Crop and Define Jacket in the fitting room, my husband sneakily purchased the Run All Day Backpack as a surprise for me.  He is seriously the sweetest guy.  I didn't know until we opened the trunk after shopping at Crate & Barrel and saw the Lululemon shopping bag sitting there.  I was so confused at first!  I literally saw the bag, looked at him, looked back at the bag and went huh?



I first fell in love with this bag after seeing in the Blooming Pixie Multi print, but was so sad that the US never got it.  I think it was only released in Canada and Australia.

But I think I prefer the Windy Wash now.  While the pink and purple mix of Blooming Pixie is super cute and feminine, the blues and greens are a bit more my style.  I'm mainly going to use this bag when I want to keep my hands free for shopping and quick errands.  It has lots of pockets for things like my phone, wallet, S'well bottle.

It fits very nicely around my petite shoulders and back.  It is very comfortable to wear.  I've only worn it once so far, so I can't say as to how durable it is.  I've read some reviews with some people losing their straps with the buckles but I can't really see how that happens?  One person also wrote that the straps snag on their clothes and have pilled their shirts.  I'll have to keep an eye on those things.

Shoulder straps are very comfortable and soft

The only thing I wish Lululemon would have added was a closure for the large outside pocket.  It is just wide open and I can easily see things may fall out of it if the bag is on it's side on the ground.

Inside of the bag has a pocket that can hold a tablet 

Overall, I really am stoked about this backpack.  I'm a big fan of backpacks in general.  This makes a nice addition to my leather backpack I have by Rebecca Minkoff.

Size wise, it's a small bag.  It's not meant for anything big.  It won't fit a laptop at all.  It will fit a tablet, and your basic items that you carry everyday.  I doubt I'll be using this for actual hiking or running, but who knows, I might one day!

The backpack also comes in black and miss mosaic black.

  1. Congrats!! Your hubby is so sweet!! This backpack is very cute and looks very functional. I got a couple backpacks from Kilpling because they are so light to carry but i regret buying them now. Cute and light but lack of details. :(

We tried HelloFresh for the past two months - Here's our review

Hi everyone! This post is written by my husband. Some of you may know he does all the cooking around here. 😅 We noticed we were spending a lot of money on food and eating out every month and wanted to see if a meal kit service would save us money and time. After looking at a few meal kit services we settled on HelloFresh. Without further ado, here's Jared's review. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you may have seen from Leslie's Instagram stories for the past 2 months, we've been using HelloFresh for most of our meals. The main drivers for this were to better track what we eat and because on the advice of my doctor, I should be eating more home cooked meals. Before I go any further, it should be noted that my original career path was in culinary arts, but twists and turns in life changed that. So I do have formal cooking experience. A little background story. Over the years, I've developed a love/hate relationship with c

Review! Lululemon's Large Everywhere Belt Bag Size Comparison Plus Video!

  Happy Friday! I can't believe it's almost Halloween! I actually have a dentist appointment on Halloween. One of my molars chipped and needs to be filled in. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.
