Lots of Pitch Blue and purples this week! Not complaining, I am loving Dramatic Magenta. My picks from this week are Classic Fit Cotton Blend T-Shirt Purple Ash, Scuba Oversized Funnel-Neck 1/2 Zip Dramatic Magenta, and Ribbed Softstreme MR Wide Leg Cropped Pant 25" Black.
In other news I just got back from my follow up appointment with my doctor and I am cleared to start adding light resistance bands and weights to my routine! No more PT! I can't tell you how happy I am that I no longer have to go to PT and that I can finally do a military press again! 😅 I can't believe how excited I was when I did my first one after 9 months. I was using 5 lb dumbbells but I didn't care. My form was good and I didn't have any pain, so it's a start.
Let me know what you think of today's upload and if you bought anything!

That's great news you can start training again, Leslie! I know how mentally tough it is to recover from injury and not work out the way you want. I didn't wait and kept re-injuring myself over and over again for a couple of years. I still can't lift heavy like I used to, but I've found other workouts that I enjoy just as much - the newest is Lagree!
ReplyDeleteI ordered the F&F 3" Shorts in Rhino Grey and the original Align Bra in Meadowsweet Pink. I was trying to wait for the bra to go on sale, but I lost patience.
Hoping we get 25" (non weird) Espresso & Pipe Dream Blue Aligns soon!
Hi LZ! I'm hoping I can get back to lifting what I used to before my injury, but I'm not the best at being patient, so it is really hard. I have to just make sure I don't overdo it with the lifting above the shoulders. I never heard of Lagree and looked it up, the machine looks huge! Do you go to classes?
DeleteFeel like Lululemon sales aren't as good anymore, might as well not wait for the $10 discount lol.
Yes, I go to classes - and they are always so challenging! I didn’t have much interest in regular pilates before, because I thought it would be too easy. The megaformer machine really beefs it up! I highly recommend if you want to improve core strength. There’s a lot of plank-type movements.
DeleteMaybe one day I'll try it!
DeleteI'm happy to hear your shoulder is doing better, and you are able to get back into your usual routine. I'm also glad to hear you're being careful about it. It's fantastic news you don't have to go to physio anymore!
ReplyDeleteI too am interested in the Ribbed Softstreme Wide Leg Pants, but that price tag will stop me from trying them. I'm kind of liking the Double Strap Yoga Tank as well. I'd really like to get something in Purple Ash and Dramatic Magenta. I love all these purples!
Hi Lola! Thank you! I just need to be patient with myself and not overdo it with my excitement!
DeleteYes, I did look at that price tag. $138! Ugh. I will try them and will only keep if it's perfect.
Same here, I am waiting for something in the purples. Just have to make it through the rest of the month with my no-buy. Nine more days. Easy right?
Congrats on your shoulder! That's exciting!
ReplyDeleteDramatic magenta has caught my eye too. None of the current pieces interest me. :( The align wrap-waist looks odd to me. Almost like the top of the pants unraveled mid workout and the person had to improvise.
I'm loving petrol purple and the heathered petrol tops look pretty. I have one sitting in my cart. I may order or wait to see them in store. Not sure yet.
Hi Lulubell! Thank you so much! Can't wait to get back at it.
DeleteLOL I had to laugh, I mean it almost does look like she's got a wedgie. =T Something really strange is going on there.
I did see the heathered petrol tops, love the color. I'm such a sucker for purple. If you get it to see it in person before me, let me know what you think!
Hi Leslie,
ReplyDeleteWonderful news on your shoulders but please take it easy! You don't want to overdo it and get injured again.
Like you, I'm a sucker for purple and I can see myself in big troubles LOL.
I've been eyeing the Softstreme Cinch-Waist Jacket and reviews are positive. I have too many grey jackets and White Opal will get dirty in no time. If LLL releases this jacket in a nice purple, I'll definitely give it a try.

Hi Andrea! Thank you! Yes, I will have to just be patient with it. That's going to be hard.
DeleteI think the Softstreme Cinch Waist Jacket would look really great on you. Hope it comes out in more colors! A purple would be amazing.
Wow Dramatic Magenta is really pretty! Yay I'm glad you're doing better and don't have to go to PT! :D Nothing for me this week.
ReplyDeleteHi Janessa! I hope they release a lot more items in Dramatic Magenta. I can't tell you how happy I am not to have to go to PT anymore. I started going in January!
