Showing posts with the label down for a run vest

UK Upload! January 12th 2016

I'm kind of shocked at today's upload.  Slim pickings for anything worth posting.  They got a couple of new colors for the Think Fast Hoodies and the awesome Down For a Run Vest.  Maybe tonight my wallet will be safe! Think Fast Hoodie in Space Dye Camo Black Slate I know a lot of people complain that the vests are too shiny and most opted for the solid black.  Personally I think black is so boring.  But a good alternative would be this pretty blue. Down For A Run Vest in Inkwell (my pick for the week) Down For A Run Vest in Cool Breeze

A Year in Review!

I've only started buying Lululemon at the start of 2015.  I know, I am pretty late to the party.  Let me say that I will only admit this here, I spent a whopping total of $6,728 in Lululemon purchases this year.  When I obsess over something, I obsess !  It's like I have a one track mind.  This can be very good, and also very bad.  But because I know I obsess over things I kept an excel spread sheet with every Lululemon purchase I made this year.  However I did end up selling 8 pieces on Ebay and will probably list up a few more over the upcoming weeks.  I didn't subtract that from the total. This year for 2016, I want to be really selective over what pieces I buy because I already feel like I've got a superfluous amount of athleisure wear.  But my favorite pieces from 2015 in no particular order is as follows: 1. Herringbone Hi Rise Wunder Under Pants.  These are so comfortable, soft and warm.  I wear them with sneakers and even boots.  2. High Times Pant

Review & An Awesome Purchase! Down For A Run Vest, Athleta Vortex Jacket, Transitions Jacket, Downalicious Deluxe Vest

Post holiday sales have been nice to me lately.  I went to the Burlington store and they had HUGE markdowns.  I'm talking 50% off.  I saw the Down For A Run Jacket for $99 in Tender Violet in my size, which was super tempting.  But I passed it up when I saw the Down For A Run Vest in Berry Rumble marked down to $69!  Major score since that is my first pick in choice of color.  So now I'm unsure if I want to keep the Forage Teal Vest I scored on WMTM for $99.  Lululemon problems! Down For A Run Vest in Berry Rumble Size 4.  $69!!! I'm wearing it over my Be Present Jacket.   I went to Athleta and tried on a few pieces.  The one that stood out to me most is the Transitions Jacket.  The fit was true to size.  I'm always a size XXS at Athleta.  The price tag is off putting to say the least especially since it's made out of 100% polyester.  I really did not think it is worth the price at all.  I would cap it at maybe $130.  It's thin and more of a Spr

My WMTM Haul- Snow Amazing Toque Sherpa, Snow Amazing Mittens Sherpa, Down for A Run Vest

My package came in early this morning while I was still sleeping.  I'm pretty excited by the vest since I've never actually worn one before.  I almost never wear long sleeve anything, even in the winter.  I prefer to wear a short sleeve t-shirt and then a open sweater cardigan or hoodie over it. Snow Amazing Toque Sherpa in Black/Gold Snow Amazing Mittens Sherpa Black/Gold.  I had to get the matching set .  Now the mittens are a little big on me.  I have tiny hands, but I think I can make them work.  These are now sold out on the website though. Snow Amazing Toque Sherpa in Berry Rumble. I lose hats ALL the time.  So I don't mind stocking up on some every year.  The Snow Amazing Toque is lined with Sherpa on the inside, making it super soft and super warm.  I can't wait to try these out tonight!   Down for A Run Vest in Forage Teal I got a size 4 in this.  I could have fit the two but it is quite snug, and I prefer a looser fit.  I

Huge WMTM Upload! December 26th 2015

Here are my picks!  At the end of this post I'll tell you what I ordered and what NOT to buy! Runderful 1/2 Zip.  Comes in 5 different colors to choose from.  If it weren't so long on me I would have bought one for $69. Down For A Run Vest in Tender Violet for $99 Down For A Run Jacket in Tender Violet for $149 Daily Practice Jacket in Heathered Herringbone Black for $89.  If I didn't already have this I would get it!   Daily Practice Jacket in Heathered Herringbone Slate $89 High Times Pant in Tender Violet $69 Speed Tight IV in Space Dye Tender Violet $79.  I need to try these on before I decide.  This one is on my wish list! Turn Around Tight in Heathered Bordeaux Drama.  If they still had these in a 4, I would have ordered. Wunder Under Crop III Flashback Static Blue $69  Free Flow Crop Diamond Jacquard Space Dye Tender Violet $69 Warrior Scarf in Bon Bon $39 Lighten Up Bra in Clouded Dreams $3

Store Visit Today!! Radiant Jacket, Wunder Under Hi-Rise, Down For A Run Vest, Fleece Out Jacket, Swiftly

Lots of Berry Rumble items today!  This was the first time I saw the Fleece Out Jacket and all I can say is what a disappointment it was.  I have no idea why the pockets jutted out the way they do but it was an easy pass for me as my credit card sighed in relief. What is up with that?   Fleece Out Jacket in Berry Rumble Size 4.  Also wearing the Herringbone Bordeaux Drama Berry Rumble in Wunder Under Pant Hi-Rise also size 4. The Herringbone WU Pant Hi-Rise I tried on were very comfortable, however the color was a tad lighter than I would have liked.  I see these as casual wear or lounge pants and I try to buy pieces I can wear at home and also go out in and these may be a little hard to wear out of the house color wise.  So I passed on these for now, but if they ever show up on WMTM, I might get them then.   Radiant Jacket in Heathered Black in Size 2 I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked the Radiant Jacket.  I thought this would have been an easy one
