I'm kind of disappointed with tonight's upload. I'm not a fan of green in general so I'm not obsessed with dark forest. I do like the new aerial pattern but I think I would like it on something with a smaller canvas like the Speed Shorts.
In other news, I finally got my semi large order today from Lulu and it looks like I'll be sending everything back. I will take photos this weekend before deciding for sure, but my initial reaction to everything was pretty half hearted. Nothing screamed OMG! MUST HAVE!
Once I get my refund I'll probably put in a large Athleta order. Haha! So, nothing for me tonight. Did you buy anything?

($98! Yikes)
(too bad it's green... I would have liked this in anything else!)
(I have this scarf from last year and bought it for $19 at a warehouse sale, but I am happy they are making more Vinyasa scarves. Now just bring back FTBW bra!!!)
Well shoot, two wks in a row of super big orders. I love earth tones so I've been buying a ton. I got all 3 Cardero tanks, green define, Swiftly tank and Hotty hot shorts. Blue and an older pink CRB, magnum Power Y, blue Fast and Free Bra, black currant Seek the Heat shorts and Free to Flow crop in store. Whew. :'(
ReplyDeleteWow! I wish earth tones looked better on me. I've bee told i look better in darker colors like deep purples, deep blues, grays and darker greens. Enjoy all your loot!!
DeleteNot even the quicksand define? Good for your wallet! I missed out but I not sure I would have kept it anyway. Fleshy color is tricky for my skintone. Also I have been buying fewer and fewer luon items due to pilling issues.
ReplyDeleteThe quicksand Define is a maybe. I definitely prefer my dusty mauve Define over quicksand. And yes, the pilling on the luon will definitely happen so I am more picky about keeping luon items too. I'll decide for sure after I see some photos over the weekend. Definitely better for my wallet, but it might just all go to Athleta. =)
DeleteI hear ya...not a huge fan of green, but the Dark Forest Swiftly does look pretty, but I'd have a harder time matching it to the rest of my clothes. Aww sorry to hear the large order didn't work out - but yay more funds for other clothes! I hope you'll still do a review of the things you ordered. I find that for the price, if I don't love the item right away, I'm better off not buying it b/c that means I won't reach for it once it's in my closet.
ReplyDeleteYup I'll still do a review. Exactly, these items cost a pretty penny, so if I'm not in love on the spot, I really shouldn't keep it. I am keeping one item in the dark forest color- the Low Key Tank, I think it'll be a top strictly for hot days in the summer. Although I should probably keep the tags on until I order some of those linen tops from Athleta. haha. Yay for 30 day return period!
DeleteI'm returning my pace rivals in blue jam this weekend so I ordered the green scuba 3 to be sent to my parents in Canada 😀 I'm living in my Scuba 3s and have sold all but 2 of my Scuba 2s.
ReplyDeleteNice! I never did like Scuba 2s. They never worked for me. I definitely prefer the 3 over Scuba 4. I ordered black currant in Scuba 4 and while the color is nice, it isn't love.
DeleteI ordered new hotty hot and speed shorts in aerial drift print. I hope i like them in person too.
ReplyDeleteI like my quicksand define but still waiting for scuba.
I have those Speed Shorts in my cart. A quicksand Scuba would be niiiiiiice. I hope they that comes out!!
