Happy Friday! I'm actually quite sick at the moment, so this will be a short fit review. I seem to have caught a cold somehow. It's summertime, how does this even happen?! I almost never get sick, but since moving to Atlanta this is maybe the 3rd time I've gotten sick. 😩
This is the one purchase I've made so far in August, and I can't decide if I should keep it. I purchased this in my usual size 4 and I think that was the right call.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in Lululemon tops. Occasionally I sometimes size down to a 2.
Although the length is cropped it does not show any skin on my short torso. I am still fully covered in the front. It seems to be fairly comfortable even with the high neckline. Speaking of the neckline, the hole is really small. I barely got my head through the top. That's another reason I'm hesitant on keeping this. I'm unsure if it would be uncomfortable running. Does anyone have this top? Would love some other feedback on those who decided to keep it.

Fast As Light Muscle Tank Heathered Viola Size 4
also wearing Speed Shorts. (old)
I love the cropped length of this tank and the criss cross back makes this a great running tank. However, for $58 it feels like it's very little material and fabric for the money. It feels like scraps of fabric in your hands. It seriously doesn't feel like a piece of clothing!

As of right now, this color is indeed sold out. However it is still available in tiger space dye and heathered black.
That's it for me! I will have a pretty big Athleta review coming up over the next week. I may have to break it up into two posts. Hope everyone has a great weekend! I have a 5 mile run on Saturday. It's my longest run ever... I'm a little scared!
Shop:
Sorry to hear you're feeling poorly! I hope you recover soon! I love the speed shorts on you! So cute! I am not a fan of the tank, sorry. Way overpriced imho. Have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteI do agree, the tank is overpriced!! Leaning towards returning it now. Have a great weekend Sarah!
DeleteI bought this tank in space tiger dye and I'm also on the fence. I think I would've liked it better in solid colors. I'm holding on to it for now as I do know this is a hot commodity!
ReplyDeleteI'm leaning towards returning it. I would much rather buy another Breeze By Muscle Tank instead.
DeleteWoiksss... Ms. CuTEness, please get well soon!!! The top looks good on you, however, I have to admit that price... urmmm... this is among the moments I feel Lululemon really is banking in on the brand's name, because I could get something with this cutting without the name from some local brand and it would be Malaysian Ringgit MYR 20. Imagine that in your currency! Cheap as chips!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm feeling a little better today. But agreed it's the brand name and definitely not worth the full price. It's being returned.
DeleteI was intrigued mostly because of the demand in BST apps, but I'm not a fan at all. I don't understand the hype. Don't get me wrong, it looks great on you. I think it looks better on your small frame than on someone taller as a true crop top. The back it kind of awkward.. I don't think it "falls nicely". My honest opinion- use that money for a pretty color essentials tank or new speeds or something else. This style is not a good "lasting" look that would get lots of wear out of my closet. For that price, it's too trendy and you should absolutely love the style. You're on the fence so you probably already answered your own question anyway.
ReplyDeleteTotally right. The back does look a little weird. Probably just FOMO that's hyping it even more. It's being returned.
DeleteI bought the Fast as Light tank in the navy, heathered black, and tiger space dye - returned all three today.
ReplyDeleteWasn't a fan of how cheap the fabric felt and didn't like the way the top looked on me enough to justify spending $58/each...
Totally agree with you. Just feels like a bunch of scraps sewed together in the back... not worth the $$.
