Small drop today! Lots of pastel colors, which I am very surprised at. Wasn't expecting Tea Rose or Pelican colors for winter. Although the Pelican Scuba Hoodie can almost work as an off winter white. Nothing for me this week! I woud love to see Athleta release something similar to the Daydrift Herringbone Pant for petites! The Heathered Olive Brown looks so good. Let me know what you think and what are you hoping to see from Lululemon this holiday season?
(This looks so nice, would love this if it came out in petite sizing. Short is still not short enough!)
(Petite length is 28")
(This whole set looks so cute.)
Love that they are bringing herringbone back. Reminds me of the lulu from the good ol days. Its renewed my interest in the define jacket. Wish the prices were like the good ol days. I’ve notice a lot of the flowy wide legged pants in petite /short sizing tend to be really long because they’re supposed to almost drag on the floor rather than sit at the ankle like a 25 or 26 inch inseam would. This is not only the case for lulu. It’s the same for other brands like athleta and banana republic. But it’s great that lulu provides free hemming so if you love the pants enough you have that option. Thanks for posting! Cindy
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy! I did happen to feel the herringbone at the store over the weekend and it doesn't feel as soft as it did in the years past. It used to make me go oooooohhhh and I would want it, but the recent ones only felt okay, not as luxe to me.
DeleteI know I can always get them hemmed but I never end up making that happen. But you're right I could if I really love the pants!
Ahhh I was afraid that would be the case as so many things over time seem to have changed in the fabrics they use. I remember the feel of the old Love tees and tanks were a nice cottony fabric and now it just feels different.
DeleteNothing for me and I was hoping to see more special items for the holidays. The Scuba Plush Hoodies were gone in no time and I didn’t even get to see it in Heathered Black Plum or Heathered Sequoia! :(
ReplyDeleteThe glittery accessories are the only items that look festive. I must say they are kind of cute but not my cup of tea. I did get the Fast Track Bag in two colors from WMTM though and are pleasantly surprised. I am wearing them as crossbody bags and they do hold a lot of stuff.
Another great purchase I got from LLL lately is the Waterproof Beyondfeel Running Shoes in Riverstone. The gorgeous color is what caught my attention and it’s even prettier in person. The toe box is a tad narrow for my liking but the shoes are super comfortable. Thanks to Leslie for recommending the Beyondfeels and they are definitely worth the price.
Nothing for me from Athleta and I’m disappointed that the Cozy Karma Sweatshirt didn’t make a comeback. It’s one of my most loved items from Athleta.

Hi Andrea! I don't know anyone that got a Scuba Plush. Where are they?? It's so weird. I would love to get just one!
DeleteI saw the glittery accessories at the store, while they are cute none of it was for me personally. They also felt a little scratchy with the glitter and that is a little bit of a turn off.
I'm really happy the Fast Track Bag worked out for you! You're so welcome for the Beyondfeel Running shoe rec. I'm eyeing another pair of maybe the Split Shift Running shoe in Atmospheric Purple.
It's surprising Athleta didn't bring back the Cozy Karma Sweatshirt. It's always been a best seller for them in the past. Maybe they released something similar this year? I'll have to take a look.
It looks like they only released it in the 1/2 zip sweatshirt and a dress this year. 😢
DeleteWhat a shame! I really miss the unique neckline design of the Cozy Karma Sweatshirt.
