New Stained Glass Love 3D Special Edition Wunder Under Pants, made of full on luon. The model's outfit is laid out above: Stained Glass Love WUPS and Flow Y (where is the darn Energy Bra in this print?), Cool Racerback, Yogi Crew Sweater, and Totally Toasty Ear Warmer. I got to try the Wunder Unders on in the store yesterday and really liked them. I thought they were on the thicker side, particularly when compared to the full on luxtreme Speed Tights, and felt cozy on.
Rest Less Pullover in white, shown with a Totally Toasty Neck Warmer and Stained Glass Love Scuba. I tried the Rest Less on yesterday and didn't really love it. From how some people were describing it I thought it would feel like a thick rulu top on but it was more like a thicker, stiffer Swiftly. It was soft inside but not rulu soft and I didn't think as soft as the recent space dye swiftlys have been. I didn't love it and felt that if I want something warmer than a regular Swiftly I would rather reach for a rulu long sleeve or pullover for running. And if I need something super warm, then I'd pull out my cozy Turn Around Long Sleeve (this top needs to make a comeback, lululemon!). I just don't see the need for this top in my wardrobe though I guess it gives you a seamless option in a warmer fabric. I thought the fit was TTS.

Lab Shadow Jacket and Shine Tight in Shimmy Shimmer Multi. I was underwhelmed by the new Shimmy Shimmer and Garden Party prints in the store yesterday. I expected them to be a lot more blingy in real life but they were pretty muted on the whole. None of them appealed to me, which worked out well since I am saving my money for tech fleece, sherpa fleece, and ultra violet mini check items in pieces that fit my needs. I thought the material on the Shine Tights felt awful - very stiff and harsh. I saw the Scoop Back LS on the hanger but it looked on the short side so didn't bother trying it on. Many years ago I owned a scoop neck print luon short sleeve top (the name escapes me right now) that I hardly wore and ended up selling so I've already been there, done that with the Scoop Back top. However, it does look cute in the photos so I can see why people are snapping it up.

This stained glass love print is so pretty. I ended up giving in and ordering the speed tights in it --- I held off at first b/c I would have preferred brushed ones, but alas they proved too pretty to pass up.
I ordered the Rest Less Pullover this past Tuesday and, like you, didn't love it either when it came and I tried it on. It was okay, but definitely not 84$ nice IMO. And the waist was loose while everywhere else it was nicely fitted on me. I 100% prefer the Turn Around LSs (I really wish they'd bring those back too...they were the best) and regular Rulu LSs over it. It shall be going back tomorrow AM when I am willing to brave the mall :)
@purrfiktangil - Totally. If the Rest Less goes on a nice markdown I would definitely consider it but I didn't love it at the $84 price.
LLA I could not agree more with all your comments here :) I too tried on the Rest Less PO and for the price was definitely not impressed..not sure I'd even grab it on MD..I tried on the shine tight which I really never loved on me in the solid colors and am a bit confused as to why they used the shine material for this print. If they thought they'd get more sparkle effect I didn't see it. They also seemed to slip down in my TTS so I was not liking them at all and agree that they are muted. I did however try on and love the Totally Toasty Neck Warmer which I bought and will get tons of use out of living in the Chicagoland area! What did you think of this piece LLA?
I kind of want the stained glass wups now! Are they a regular waist? I'm preferring the roll down options these days.
@J in TO - they are regular waist. I know I am in the minority but I don't care for roll downs at all.
