Happy Friday!! It's officially fall. Out here in Atlanta it even hit 52 degrees this morning! Brrrrrr. I personally love chilly weather. Give me all the hoodies and fleece joggers and I'm in heaven. Snuggle up with my cats on the couch and it's a perfect day to me.
Today I have for you a lot of Lunar Rock Diamond Dye. I love this pattern but maybe, there can be too much of it. 😆😂 I did place another order this week and I hope to have another Lululemon review up next Friday.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.

Someone had asked about this bra a long long time ago and I decided to give it a proper review. I'm wearing my usual size 6 in Lululemon bras. (I'm a 34A) This bra really does make me flat. There are no bra inserts so if it's a solid color vs a pattern, be prepared to see some nips. The diamond dye does a pretty good job at camouflaging though. True to size and the Nulu is very soft. Personally I find the extra length underneath the bust to be a bit compressive against my ribs and I don't love that feeling. This is reversible and the other side is solid graphite gray. Unfortunately this is a return for me, but otherwise it's a cute bra if you don't mind looking flat and possibly showing nips though the fabric. I am also pairing it with Align Crop 17" in DD Lunar Rock True Navy. I haven't 100% decided if I will keep the crops. I am leaning towards keeping them since the other items in this review are also being returned and I really want something in this color way.
Alright, so this outfit is somewhat of a hot mess! 😂😆 I decided to try the Ready To Rulu set in Diamond Dye Lunar Rock True Navy. What do you know, I kind of look like a mash up of a really bad painter's outfit and possibly 70s/80s look? I can't decide which era represents this best.
Ready to Rulu Pullover Size 2
Ready to Rulu Jogger Crop Size 6
Does this look as awful as I think it does?
I was having a hard time with the lighting so the colors look a little too warm in some of these photos, but you should be able to get a general idea. I've reviewed Ready to Rulu Pullover in the past and it runs a little big which is why I decided to size down this time around. I am wearing size 2 and it's a much better fit. If you're curious to see the size 4 on me, here's a link to my review.
I've also reviewed Ready to Rulu Jogger Crop in a previous post as well and here's a link to my review. I remember it being very large in the cuff and I wanted to see if Lululemon had updated the fit since then. As you can see, they have not! I sized up to a 6 to see if it would give a longer length and maybe I could pull it off as a full length jogger but the answer is no, nope, don't even try it kids! It kinda doesn't look as bad if I roll up the cuff, but it's still not great. The length of the joggers measure 24 inches.
The jogger crop also looks a lot better with a black top than a full on matching set. Going up a size was actually really comfortable in the waist and hip but overall, I didn't think the crops worked for me. Nothing beats my Vuori and Athleta joggers. Lulu needs to bring Asia fit to the US already!
The waist sits underneath my belly button. I did find it to be much more comfortable than the size 4, from what I can recall. It's definitely a looser fit overall though.
That's it for me! Hope you enjoyed my hilarious disaster outfit review and have a great weekend!!
Shop if you dare-
In case you missed it, there was a pretty good WMTM update this week!
I huge thank you to you for doing this fit review! I was interested in both items but guess my wallet is safe! :)
ReplyDeleteI was hoping that the collar of the Ready to Rulu Pullover would stand up like it does on the website photo but apparently the material is too soft. I would love to get a french terry top with a funnel collar.
So sad with the jogger cos it has so much potential and the print is gorgeous. I also agree that Lululemon should start offering Asia or petite fit!
Wonder if you know but Lululemon just lauched a Team Canada line.

Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Andrea! The collar to Ready to Rulu Pullover is pretty soft. You can style it that way but my guess is it wouldn't stay up for too long.
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool. Will you be ordering anything Team Canada?
I would’ve ordered the Sweat Pullover Hoodie if only the nice pattern was in blue or grey tone. Not a green person at all! To be honest, unless you’re part of Team Canada, who would like to wear something with a big CAN print? :D

ReplyDeletehi Leslie, Thanks for the fit review! Lunar Rock Diamond Dye is very pretty! It's too bad that the ankles of the Ready to Rulu Crops are so big! Otherwise, the length would've worked!
ReplyDeleteIt's so cool that the Canadian team will wear Lululemon for the 2022 Olympics and Paralympics! I read that more Team Canada products will be released next month! I'm looking forward to more Dark Sport Red and Crimson items!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Karen! The huge ankles really boggle my mind. Don't know what they are thinking. Not everyone is 5 foot 9.
DeleteI'll be interested to see what else they come out with for Team Canada!
I've always wanted to get the align reversible bra but I would look completely flat! I think the DD set looks too busy and would look better if the top were fitted to show off your figure! I love the DD pants with the black top. Too bad the ankles are baggy! Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteHi Janessa! I am pretty flat there too! I love DD but neither of these worked for me. Disappointed but on to the next.
