Hi everyone! Here's a fit review since I didn't post one on Friday. I haven't been buying as much Lululemon lately, but my most recent purchase is the Speed Up short in frozen flourish print. I'm definitely keeping this pair. I love prints and this one is right up my alley. It's a little darker than I expected it to be, but still very pretty.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and typically a size 4 in tops and bottoms.
I've been looking for a pair of joggers for fall and have heard of many great things for Ready To Rulu Pant. While it is super soft, it's definitely too long on petites. The length is 29 inches. My inseam is 26 inches. You can see it's just too wrinkly and baggy around my ankles.

I purchased these in my normal size 4. The fit is similar to Speed Shorts. I feel like these are slightly more comfy in the waist.
These are definitely cut a little higher than Speed Shorts, but since I have short legs I find the change to be more flattering on petites. I have not tried these out on a run yet but I'm excited to finally add a pair of these to my collection.
While in New Orleans I did manage to stop by a Lululemon shop! I know I'm late to the game on the Non-Stop Bomber jacket, but after trying it on, I have to say I kinda dig it. The store did not have the dark chrome color that everyone loves but I did get to try on the black. I'm wearing a size 2 and found it to be very comfortable with room to layer. So I would say this is a size down item since I'm normally a size 4 in Define Jackets.

This jacket is reversible which makes it kind of cool giving it two different looks. I definitely preferred the bomber side of the jacket. I'm kind of sad the dark chrome is sold out online in my size! Maybe they will restock?
The length of the jacket hits at the hip. The sleeves I did not find to be too long. It does however look a little bulky from the side. It poofs out which isn't the most flattering. It looks the best from the front. I can see this jacket being very warm even though it is light weight.
I tried on a size 2 and found it to fit in the waist and hips. I would these are a size down item as well. I didn't find it to be too baggy around the legs, but the length is definitely a deal breaker for me. Price tag is also hefty. $108 it better be flattering!
I also tried on the Back In Action Jogger. The length of these is also 29 inches. When I saw these were made of nulu, I was curious to try them on.

So these are definitely not very flattering but they are very comfortable. They're high waisted kind of like the Aligns, but I did not find these to be flattering. They definitely show all the lumps and bumps around the waist and butt. The fabric is also very thin and can easily see panty lines. These are a definite pass for me.
Totally bloated from all the eating! Oh well...
Hope everyone had a great weekend! I had a very relaxing one. Got myself a mani/pedi and a great haircut.
I'm still searching for that perfect burgundy jacket and found a couple of items I'm interested in from Athleta. I may place an order to try them out.

(I have this in silver bells too and love it)
That's it for me! Hope everyone has a great Monday!

LOVE the Speed Up short in Frozen Flourish on you! The bomber is super cute too! I was so sad about the Ready to Rulu joggers too... it was so soft, and such great reviews, sadly my short legs made it all bunchy too.
ReplyDeleteNice haircut! Glad you had a relaxing weekend too!
Thanks! Well I'll have a review up soon from Athleta Girl joggers that fit perfectly... You may be able to get away with the XL since you're taller than me!
