I’m doing life backwards this week. Last night, I kept refreshing wondering what was taking lululemon so long with this week’s upload. Oh, right… maybe the fact that it was Monday. Begrudgingly flew home from San Diego today and flipped on the Bachelorette when I got home. Maybe I’ll finally unscramble my week tomorrow. Probably not.
5 Faves & a Dud: 6/4/19 Edition
Favorite #1: Weave the Waves One Piece ($118) in LuluLemons White Multi
Lulu’s got legit lemons, y’all. Yet this time it’s not a lemon like a Dud lemon… it’s a lemon that’s like a cute piece of fruit that will look adorable on beach vacations all summer long.
An artsy fruit print is completely out of left field for lululemon’s general aesthetic, but I’d like one glass of this lemonade, please 😋🍋
Favorite #2: Speed Up Short Hi-Rise 2.5″ ($58) in black
Did I not say in my super mega shorts breakdown post last month how I liked the feel of my old school high-rise Speed Shorts the best?
I was all set to order a pair of the medium rise longer inseam Speed Ups, and now the unexpected high rise short shorts make their return. Lululemon’s toying with me real hard right now.
Favorite #3: Energetic Edge Cropped Tank ($68) in Light Chrome
This tank just sneaks on in there in a single color option. I think the angled bottom hem is quite flattering, and what you may not realize until you click through? It’s every SeaWheezer’s favorite word… REFLECTIVE 🤩
Kudos for including a key pocket in front. I have a three-step plan for this summer now:
- Get abs
- Get this tank
- Wear it
Favorite #4: Pace Rival Skirt ($68) in cyprus
Doing a happy dance because this skirt was also released in Tall this week. Cyprus is the kind of gem tone that looks good on everyone. I think.
Pale complexion with red hair? Cyprus looks good on you. Darker olive complexion with dark hair? Cyprus looks good on you. Fair blonde like me? I feel like cyprus is going to look good on me too.
Favorite #5: Here to Move Jacket ($198)
She’s rocking the look, I want the look, going to leave it at that.
The Dud: Cross It Off Tote 20L ($58) in Light Coral
There are many better things to spend your $58 on, like 58 frosties from Wendy’s, or a new pair of shorts. For that much money, I expect something a bit more structured.
I suppose one could make an argument that this could make a decent beach bag to go with the lemony swim set, but I’m going to say this one is a bit of a (flippity) flop. Literally.
The Fruit Basket & the Florist
Weave the Waves wasn’t the only lemony fresh swim piece tonight. On the heels of the newly released ribbed swim collection (the ribbed fabric IRL feels thick & luxe FYI) come four more juicy options. I’m still partial to the one-piece.
- Will the Wave Surf Short 2.5″ ($68)
- Deep Sea Swim Top ($68)
- Sun Soaker Cheeky Bottom Low Rise ($68)
- See the Sea Swim Top ($68)
Once you pick up your new swimsuit from the produce aisle, head on to the floral department for reaonably-sized assortment of Utopia Multi. I generally am not too big on the florals, but I like this one more than most.
- Energy Bra ($52)
- Align Short ($48)
- Align Crop ($88)
- Flow Y Bra *Nulu ($48)
- Align Pant II ($98)
- Uplifting Scrunchie ($8)
Oh Also This Fun Stuff Too
- The Festival Shoulder Strap is two months too late. Prior to Coachella, this probably would have sold out hot. This gives me an idea though: Lululemon, please give us the option to mix & match Festival Bags! Nike lets us do it with shoes 😉
- The cayenne All the Right Places Pant II looks spicy. See what I did there?
- While the fabric looks thin, I like the look of the Soul Stride Tank from the front.
- The new photos for the white Energy Bra are teasing Jet Stream Blue Fast & Free Shorts. Gah! Want.
- Pack Light Pullover? I’d like one please.
- The Breeze Through Twist Tank is an airier gauzier version for fans of the Crescent Tank.
- They say Grape Mist, I say chewed grape bubble gum. See: Swiftly Tech Short Sleeve Crew.
- Asym is a thing this week, and the Define Jacket is looking sharp, along with the Speed Wunder Tight.
- Slightly deeper shade than cyprus, Bermuda Teal makes an appearance in a few options:
- Whether the tag says Speed Up Short MR or Long/Updated Fit, moonwalk is here.
- We get TWO more tennis dresses this week, the Court Crush Tennis Dress (in 3 colors) and the Flex On Court Dress, which looks like a Swiftly/Breeze By hybrid but thankfully has a liner built in.
- We first got Lime Pop in the longer-length Hotty Hots, now the Hotty Hot Short II 2.5″ is available in this bright & happy color.
- The Tennis Time Skirt looks like a prime candidate for a work wardrobe during the hot summer months. Slightly surprising that given its tennis moniker it’s only available in black for now.
First upload of the month, and we’ve got a few options – anyone snap up something new?
