New Releases Week of February 27th 2024

 Lots of Grape Thistle today. I love purple, so not complaining. That said, it's the same items every week, just in different colors or regurgitated colors from years past. I wish Lulu would release some new styles or at least some prints or patterns like they used to. Nothing that I have to have this week, but I am looking forward to the blazer I ordered last week. I don't have high hopes that it's petite friendly, but I still want to see it for myself. In other news, Vuori also has new arrivals this week that is worth taking a closer look at. Check it out below!

  1. I'm not a fan of muted colors, so I'm safe from all of the Grape Thistle and Belgian Blue. We have some Grape Thistle Mesh WTs in store, and I might be interested if they come in black. I know mesh is so 2019, but this version is really soft mesh and is pretty opaque. They look like bike shorts on top, full mesh legs, and a little bit of Everlux on the bottom. I find normal Everlux to be too hot (and not quick-drying at all), so they could be a good solution.

    I agree with you about the same stuff in different colors. If there was a color I really liked, that could be good (or bad for my wallet), but there's nothing I want or need right now. If Dark Prism Pink makes a return, I'm in trouble, though!

    1. Hi LZ! I'll have to check out the mesh WTs. I did have a couple of pairs of mesh back in the day, but they were a little scratchy. Nice to know the these are soft!

      Athleta had some new arrivals, but nothing that stood out to me.

  2. Your so right Leslie! Have to laugh today of the new releases so uninspiring.. Have old pair of iron blue color aligns and WU grape. Today people notice the color believing its the new release. Lol..
    Lululemon often famous in making dozens of leggings styles you could not possibly have the money to choose or wear them all making your mind be dizzy thinking about it. Today they only have three or four styles..Is it because the older styles such as All the right places leggings were fazed out for Fast & Free and customers complain less about it? Are todays leggings much more superior product and standard then years past?

    Only good part if they keep recycling same items but labeling it different color. Sooner or later they will drop the Gator green camo which i lost wanting to replenish. Hopefully in regular Align legging then my previous Fast & Free.

    1. Hi Mack! More likely the opposite! Older leggings have better quality then the new ones today. I'm sure you'll get your gator green, maybe in time for fall.

      But yeah, today was a snooze drop. Good for all of our wallets though!

  3. Hi Leslie,
    Another boring upload. I was at the store over the weekend and couldn't help trying on the Always Effortless Jacket in Belgian Blue. The color is gorgeous. Sadly size 2 was too short in both the sleeve length and body length, while size 4 fit big even though the body length was still a tad short for my liking. :(

    I did order the blazer as well and hope size XS will work for me.

    1. Hi Andrea! I saw that jacket at the store too. Love the color but wish it was the original version. Why did they change a good thing? SMH.

      I think the blazer will definitely work better for you than on me! Let me know your thoughts on it when it arrives. =)

    2. Hi Leslie,
      The blazer just arrived and sadly it doesn’t work for me. Shoulders are too wide and sleeves super long. I like the material and the style but too bad it’s just not for me. :(

      I think the blazer might fit you better as you have wider shoulders but I’m afraid you’ll have to roll up the sleeves.

    3. I figured the sleeves would be too long, I'll have to see if the length is too long as well. That would be my main concern. How did you find the length?

    4. The blazer covers my bum which is a good length in my opinion. It’s just that the sleeves are really looooooong! :D

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. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia. Anyway, today I have a belt bag size comparison review for you all! For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size 4 in Lululemon tops and bottoms.

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.
