5 Faves & a Dud: Whiteout Expresss

Internet friends, today’s is going to be a short one. Having gone on my Utah jaunt this past weekend, I am physically and emotionally exhausted. I spent last night on a Boeing 757, and went straight to work upon landing today. The icing on the cake of sleep deprivation is that said night on a 757 was spent alternating between sleeping and choking back tears all the way from SLC to ATL to CT because of some personal stuff that has also gone down in the last 24 hours.

I needed to nap at 4:30p today, because I couldn’t function anymore. Woke up at 8pm on the couch, and one hour later am already feeling like it’s time for bed again. Let’s get through these 5 faves right quick so that I can go back to being sad about… him. You know you’re not yourself when you don’t even have the appetite to finish off an 8oz cup of soup for lunch.

Enough about me. I’m tired and sad and will get over it in due time, that time just isn’t right now. As for the gym clothes?

One big takeaway from this week’s upload – the Store Availability feature the lululemon app’s been talking up for MONTHS has finally arrived! This is going to be a huge gas money and time saver for me.

Really, my face hurts from being so sleepy. I need to HIBERNATE.

5 Faves & a Dud – 5/10/16 Upload

Favorite #1: Trinity Tank ($58) in lakeside blue

At first thought, I was expecting the front to look just like the Wild Tank. It’s a different cut in front, and I like it. Wondering how supportive it is, though? Who cares. Katy likey.

Favorite #2: Free to Be Bra *Trinity ($48) in heathered slate/grapefruit

The trinity train is rolling on to the next station along the line, the bra! Given that it’s part of the Free to Be family you know it’s not going to be supportive, however it is going to be crazy cute. I want this one!

Favorite #3: Free to Be Bra *Wild ($48) in space dye camo seal grey deep coal/flash light

Is it extremely similar to the trinity bra I just posted above? Yes. Do you think I care? I don’t.

Favorite #4: Wunder Short 5″ *Full-On Luon ($48) in white

No, I’m not Stacie Tovar or Brooke Wells. However, for some reason I’m digging the white shorts. I’d never be able to pull them off given how pale/dirt-prone I am, but hey, I can still say they’re pretty. About the only place I can be near these shorts and be sure they won’t get dirty is this blog.

These are also available in black in full-on luxtreme, but WHO WANTS THAT? A lot of you, probably. Just not me.

Favorite #5: Cool Racerback ($42) in bali breeze

This one’s a layup. Bali breeze returns after a popular run last year. It didn’t hurt that BB ended up perfectly matching Nike’s hyper jade, aka the Lauren Fisher Metcon 1’s. I get a ton of wear out of this color. Happy to see it return for those who may have missed out last summer.

The Dud: High Times Pant (Wing Mesh) *Full-On Luxtreme ($98) in deep navy

I mean, the good part (I guess) is that I actually had to think about which piece was bad enough to be the Dud this week? Some week’s it’s so painfully obvious, and that’s what makes it fun.

Alas, with these, I am concerned for us ladies who like styles akin to the Light as Air (RIP) and Namastay Put Hipsters, I have a feeling that the mesh on these goes up higher than our underwear. Not worth the trouble or discomfort of a whale tail for the day. Strike one. Plus, they’re fullux. Strike two. The mesh panel looks black, not navy. Strike three, you’re out.

I’m on the fence of what to order from the top 3 today. On one hand, self pity says buy all the things! On the other hand, I just went on vacation and should probably proceed with caution before opening up the next Amex statement.

Wah.
