Lululemon Flatiron NY - Behind The Design Event

It was definitely way more low key than I expected.  I got there exactly at 8am and didn't see a line, no crowd, nothing!  The store didn't look like it was open.  I actually thought for a minute that maybe I was at the wrong Lululemon location.  I checked my phone just in case I was mistaken and right then a couple walked in so I followed.  (I have this thing where I don't like to be the only customer in a store.)

I went in hopes of finally seeing the Wunder Speed Tights in florence print, but sadly they were not there.  I actually didn't see anything new.  No one checked my event ticket, so anyone could have just walked in.  I am glad I went since they did give 15% off your entire purchase.



It was fairly empty.   I would say maybe a total of 20 to 30 customers trickled in within the hour that I was there.  The educators were super nice and friendly.  I asked them if they were discontinuing the Free To Be Wild Bra since I haven't seen any new patterns or prints come in that style for some time.  I also told them I did try on the Free To Be Zen Bra and wasn't much of a fan of the strap placements.  I was reassured the Free To Be Wild Bra was not being discontinued and would make an appearance sometime soon.  


If anyone is interested they had a huge rack of markdowns of the Swiftly racerbacks, short sleeve and long sleeve in true red.  The prices were much lower than online.  The racerback tank was priced at $34, the short sleeve was $49 I believe and the long sleeve was $59.  They had almost every single size.  This is the Flatiron Store in NYC.  


Food and beverages were available in the back of the store.  They had some really good muffins that were still warm and Blue Print vegetable juices.  I took one of each.  It was my first time drinking a Blue Print and it tasted better than I expected but I don't think I would try it again.  It also has a lot of sugar for that one bottle.  (25 grams!)

Sorry for the craptastic picture!

All in all, it was a worthwhile trip, I ended up repurchasing the Define Jacket in Teeny Tooth and saved $18.  It's actually more than that if you calculate the tax I would have paid if I were to buy it in Atlanta.  (For any clothing item $110 and under is tax free in NYC.)  I also bought the Free To Be Bra in the same color.  I'll be returning the Define Jacket I purchased in Boston.  

Overall, nothing too exciting!  Hope everyone has an awesome weekend!  I'll be heading back to Atlanta tomorrow morning.  I'll be stuck in a minivan with a cat for two days.  Fun!

  2. Glad you got to go even though it wasn't as big an event as it sounded. I would have definitely gone for 15% off.

    I wanted to see the wunder speeds in the sea pattern but no such luck. I think they're sold out.

    25 g of sugar? Yikes!

    1. I saw the Wunder Speeds in the sea pattern on the website in my size and was super tempted to order them but I passed. It was probably a return, otherwise yeah I think they are sold out.

      Yup, I'm glad I got the 15% off, better than nothing!

    1. Anytime! Glad to do a review of it. I'm pretty lucky I was in town for this. It just coincided at the same time I was here visiting my family.

  4. I was at this place last week. This is such a joy as a place for food! I had a beautiful time here. It reminded me of other venues in San Francisco. A beautiful, wonderful place that had excellent atmosphere.

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. (Original post date Aug 2022). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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

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.

Review! Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap VS Everywhere Belt Bag Original

  Happy May! Can't believe summer is right around the corner. I'm looking forward to visiting my family later this month. It's been nearly a year since I've been back to NYC. I'm already thinking about all the dim sum I'm going to cram in the 10 days I'm there! 😆  Today I have a review of the new  Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap  compared to the original  Everywhere Belt Bag  that is slowly being phased out. 😢  **** Update - The original Everywhere Belt Bag has been phased out completely.
