C'mon Lululemon, Give Us a Chili Red Deep V!!!

Dear Lululemon,

If you can make this fugly gray and neon yellow Deep V, can you please make a pretty one in that GORGEOUS Chili Red (or Poppy!) you have on your palette? I've seen this blah, uninspired color combo numberous times before from Nike and Adidas, but you, Lululemon, have this wonderful rainbow of colors and you are not taking advantage of it.

Signed,

A Lululemon Addict BEGGING You To Make/Dying To Spend Money On Tops in Chili Red

Product Alert - Flounce Tight

FYI for you teenagers with skinny legs and parents with deep pockets. For the rest of us professional women who can actually afford to pay Lululemon prices, I'll get on my cranky old lady soapbox now. I've read that when Lululemon was founded it was designed for active women in their 30s. That was over 10 years ago. Who is your core market Lululemon? Hint, the people make the type of money to be able to pay $100 for pants you wear to exercise. I know that at my local stores in Orange County, CA, a style-setting place in the world, the Tight and Mini is already on markdown so the market for these skirt/tights (skights?) combos seems to be limited.

Features:
  • Get cheaky in this flirty flounce pant!
  • Made with luon, our signature fabric
  • Coolmax gusset designed for sport
  • Chafe resistant flat seams

Product Alert News - Run: Spirit Tight

Just got a product alert for the new Run: Spirit Tight and thought those of you who are runners might be interested. I am a huge fan of Lululemon's running line.

These are now available on the website. Kind of an odd looking design with the puckers up the shin. They also come in a solid black version.

Features:
  • Full length, fully functional run tight you'll never want to take off
  • Made of 4-way stretch power luxtreme for 'no bounce' muscle support and quick drying wicking capabilities
  • High rise tight with lowered "groove" band that sits below longer tops
  • Figure slimming flatlocked seam lines for less abrasion
  • Rib hem that won't get stretched out and allows for easy on-and-off
  • Back zipper pocket for cards and keys
  • Strong elastic waistband with internal drawcord for added support
