Hi everyone, Leslie's husband here again, covering this week's drop. Firstly, thank you all for your comments on my previous post. More importantly, I'm really happy to see so many of you offering your condolences to Leslie. Her grandma was the most important person in her life and I've always been fine playing second fiddle to her, as she was an amazing person and caretaker.
I will admit it feels weird covering this, since I'm strictly a jeans, t-shirt, and hoodie kind of guy, but I'm willing to give it a go.
Not sure I'm feeling the pink, which apparently is the new color for this drop. The skirt look "business friendly" and given the few Lululemon items I own, some of their items are good compromise pieces; professional looking enough for the office, but still comfy.
The layers are too busy personally, but the model looks like the actress from "Lucifer". If you haven't watched that show, it's a pretty fun guilty pleasure.
These confuse me admittedly. I'm sure they're comfortable, but part of me feels like the designer was high and was like "yo, imagine taking sweat pants and turning them into cargo pants" and a marketing exec was like "let's ship it!"
Another confusing item. As you scroll this page, just line it up so that the model's hips are out of sight and this look really professional. The minute you scroll back up, it does feel out of sorts. It's like the pants version of a mullet. Business down low, party up above.
It's like the cargo joggers and the mid flare pants got it on and this is the child.
This bag is actually nice and I hope Leslie gets it to do a review on it. It seems different enough from their Everywhere Belt Bag and has a more sophisticated appearance. The different style and the fact that it's 3L rather than 2L makes the $30 price difference between this and the larger Everywhere Belt Bag a little easier to swallow personally. This is probably the stand out item for this drop personally.
Hopefully reading my commentary wasn't too painful. I know Leslie will be interested in knowing what you think, so definitely let her know in the comments. After talking with her, it looks like I'll be covering most of this week and next week, with her returning for the drop on August 13th. Thank you everyone and hope you have a great rest of the week.
OMG I LOVE it! You need to do this more often! Take care Leslie and family!
ReplyDeleteI love these fresh takes on the Lulu drops! You're so sweet to fill in for Leslie, we're all keeping her and her family in our thoughts. <3
ReplyDeleteYour DS Jogger comment is spot-on! LLL is really going wild on this cargo train.
ReplyDeleteI wish the Mini Flares were more of a Groove Pant cut in the legs, but I am happy to see a "Short" version. Previously there was "Regular" and "Extra Short," but neither worked quite right for me.
First off- I hope Leslie is ok. My heartfelt condolences again. Glad she is spending time with her family.
ReplyDeleteNext- I’m loving the the male viewpoint on the lululemon drops. You are hilarious and honest. I always wonder what my husband is thinking when I put my lululemon stuff on. Lol.
This is great! My favorite of the items you highlighted is the purse.
ReplyDeleteCondolences to you and Leslie.
Your comments are hysterical. My husband is also frequently confused by Lululemon clothes, but always kindly follows me around the store staring at his cell phone while I shop.
ReplyDeleteI believe all stores need to incorporate a 'husband drop off zone'. So far, only Athleta seems to be doing that with some of their stores having some pretty nice chairs.
DeleteLove the post! Keep up with the great work! I agree that the new 3L bag is the only piece that piqued my interest as well.
ReplyDeleteHope Leslie and the rest of the family is doing well at this difficult time.
I’m loving your commentary
ReplyDeleteI love your take on this week's drop! It had me laughing, especially the cargo joggers. I don't get those either. They look kind of 90s hip-hop to me, like they should come with a matching fuzzy bucket hat.
ReplyDeleteI love your commentary and I think Leslie should let you do it for her once in a while! :D
