A Year in Review!

I've only started buying Lululemon at the start of 2015.  I know, I am pretty late to the party.  Let me say that I will only admit this here, I spent a whopping total of $6,728 in Lululemon purchases this year.  When I obsess over something, I obsess!  It's like I have a one track mind.  This can be very good, and also very bad.  But because I know I obsess over things I kept an excel spread sheet with every Lululemon purchase I made this year.  However I did end up selling 8 pieces on Ebay and will probably list up a few more over the upcoming weeks.  I didn't subtract that from the total.

This year for 2016, I want to be really selective over what pieces I buy because I already feel like I've got a superfluous amount of athleisure wear.  But my favorite pieces from 2015 in no particular order is as follows:

1. Herringbone Hi Rise Wunder Under Pants.  These are so comfortable, soft and warm.  I wear them with sneakers and even boots. 



2. High Times Pant in Heathered Bordeaux.  So comfortable and they go with anything. 



3. Swiftly Racerback Tanks.  I wore these in the summer and for running.  Best tanks ever!



4. Scuba Hoodie III in Bark Berry.  This is my go to hoodie.  I love how soft it is.



5. Vinyasa Scarves.  I own 4 of them and wear them almost daily.



6. Run Speed Shorts.  These are the best running shorts.  Period.



 7. Workshop Galaxy Leggings.  Ok this one isn't Lululemon, but I already wore these for working out, yoga, and walking all day and they are so comfortable!  I want a few more.



8. Down For A Run Vest in Berry Rumble.  Super cute and fitted.  I just got it, but I love it.




9. The Daily Hoodie in Heathered Bark/Gray.  How can I not love this?  I took a picture with Aaron Paul on the day I got married!


10. Free To Be Wild Bras.  I own about 8 of them and wear them constantly.  I prefer this over regular bras.  



And for honorable mention, back in October when I had my wedding banquet I had an athleisure themed wedding.  I wore my Define Jacket with my Swiftly Racerback with Herringbone Hi-Rise WU.  


This is me and my BFF.  



What's your top ten?

  1. Happy New Year. I appreciate your reviews and posts. Like you, I started shopping at anthropologie and then realized my $ were better spent at LLL. Whatever helps to keep us fit! I don't have a top 10, but continue to wear my swiftlies and LLL running gear faithfully. Looking forward to your 2016 posts.

  3. Lucky you! I wish I lived closer to a store, though I can't complain because living in the greater Toronto area, I do have access to several locations. Have you tried on the five-mile long sleeve?

  4. I actually don't drive, so I do a lot of walking. The nearest store to me is about a 30 minute walk, and I don't mind it as long as it isn't too cold, so I may stop by Wednesday or Thursday to check out the new stuff. I did see the five-mile long sleeve, but I didn't try it on. I have dry hands in the winter and when I touched the sleeve the fabric stuck to my hands, so it's sort of scratchy. I didn't think it was worth the $78 price tag! But I'll try it on next time I'm there!

Review! Coach Soft Empire Carryall 40 Merlot

  I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...

Did You Know There Are Two Different Ugg Companies? Review - UGG Lowmel

  So I was shocked when I learned a couple of months ago that there are actually two UGG brands. The original UGG since 1974 is the original Australian brand that are made from sheepskin. The other is an American company with the big G uses synthetic fabric and are made in China/Vietnam. Here are the two different logos.  The one the left with the big G in the middle is the company that's made in China/Vietnam. The one on the right is the original UGG since 1974. Each pair is made in Australia! I had no idea and feel so duped. I didn't learn this until after I bought the Lowmel's which are very popular at the moment. But I will order a pair from UGG since 1974 so I can support the original brand. Plus I really want to experience the real thing and I will report back my findings. 😅 That said, I still actually really like the Lowmels. UGG Lowmel Sand   Size Kids 4 I typically wear size 5.5 and I decided to try the kids size 4 which actually fit well, if just a smidge large...

First Impressions! On Cloudmonster Void

  Happy Friday! I've been branching out into other brands for footwear. I mentioned in a previous post I just don't think my Allbirds are cutting it anymore. Allbirds are more of a casual walking shoe. Anything over 10K, my feet start to hurt. I have tried Hokas, and they seem to be decent so far, I can walk 12K steps a day and haven't had issues. However, I am loving the On Cloudmoster Void even more! For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in Allbirds which is my normal street size for sneakers and I am also wearing size 5.5 in On Cloudmonster Void. On CloudMonster Void Ivory | Wolf Size 5.5 (Currently on sale for 20% off -  $135) I'm not a huge fan of logos on my shoes. I decided on this colorway because I love the light gray and lilac combo and it does have a big On logo, but it blends in nicely with the colors. It still has a minimalistic vibe.  This shoe has a 6mm heel to toe shoe drop. This is a good height if you're a heel to toe striker which I am. This is...
