Forget the clothes - I want the jewelry that the girl with the beachy waves and bangs is wearing in these pics! lol
Any chance u can compare the new black herringbone vinyasa with the old? Also are strides gone again forever? There are some really pretty defines coming out but I'm too tall for them :(
Catching up on the last few posts: the new website photos ARE really terrible! And embarrassing.. I actually think the website was quite good already. I'm not a fan of Athleta's site. They treat every color like its a new item (which drives me crazy) and a lot of their products are not even featured on a model so you have not idea how its going to fit..
For some inexplicable reason, I'm really liking the lumber jack scuba. Lord knows why its so ugly!
the Black Herringbone Vinyasa looks delicious! and I agree about the jewelry, I want them too, haha.
Hey does anyone know if the flash light
CRB made it to Canada? Or CAN online at the very least? Thanks!
Good to see some product photos! Makes me want to buy!
Didn't order anything yesterday, but now after seeing this photos of the new Space Dye Sapphire Twist Wunder Under Crops III, I had to go back and order them! I also ordered the Inner Essence Long Sleeve in 3 colours, the Naval Blue, the Black, and the White. Hoping the Naval Blue top looks good with the Sapphire Twist Wunder Under Crops, looks like there is some Naval Blue in the pattern.
Also, have my fingers crossed that I'll like the new 'contour'waistband and that it will work out for me, not loving what I've seen of it and worried it will make the waist too loose for me at the top where it's contoured. Has anyone tried the new Wunder Under III with new contour waist, I'd love to hear your thoughts if so? My concern is that the waist will be too loose at the top, I have a smaller waist and bigger bum/hips, so my problem has always been that waist can be an area that tend to be looser on me, the Wunder Under fit me just fine the way they were, worried the new contour waist will make it too loose at the top and won't be able to size down because then they'll be too small in the bum/hips/thighs area. Thanks to anyone who's tried them and can comment :)
Really love that herringbone vinyasa!
Hope my saffire wup I ordered line up! For $92 I expect stripes to line up!
I tried on the Go the Distance Short on Monday (I was out of town at a training course and got to go to a real store after. Yey!! My closest is approx 40 miles away so I rely on pics, these awesome reviews and buy online). Anywho, the shorts were TTS and fit nicely on the waist and a good length (I'm a groovy run/run times wearer). The lack of a liner and that the material didn't lie flat due to the short's reversibility made me unsure about purchasing pair. Has anyone bought them and worn them for a run ?
I really dislike it when the stripes don't line up in the back. You'd figure that for $100 they'd line them up.
Gah, why can't they line up the prints in their garments? It's so frustrating to have to cherry pick garments for pattern placement when the nearest store to me is over 100 miles. I still havent taken the tags off my casbah hoodie for this reason. It's really hard to accept cheap craftsmanship at lululemon's prices
At 11:51am. I measured the 3/9" seam of the top waist band on the space dye sapphire twist WUPIII and the waistband flares out only a 1/2 inch wider than the waistband overall. For example, on the size 8 which has a 15 inch waistband, the top 3/9" seam is 15.5 inches. I don't think that extra half inch will affect how the waistband hugs your waist to keep your WUPIII up, no worries.
I went through the stacks of space dye sapphire twist WUPIII at my local Lululemon store and none of the stripes on the back matched up to each other exactly. But the front stripes matched up.
@ anon 11:51 I have the waist gape issue (squat butt & quads) on my sapphire WUP III you can see the slight curve in the waist band but I honestly didn't notice much difference to my normal WUP in my tts. I wore mine to 2 classes this morning and they were fine, no gaping :)
Nearly all my stripes match up on my pair....nearly....
Anon 10:52 PM - Thank you so much for the info on the new WU contour waistbands! It was very helpful :)
The reason why the lines don't match is due to mass product production.
They are probably under a hot deadline and need to get the product out ASAP.
I seriously don't think that they have people looking out for such things when manufacturing for lulu.

I went to 3 different stores and none of the space dye Sapphire matched up. Which lead me not wanting to purchase them
If you don't live in a town with a store it's almost impossible and definitely in practical to cherry pick your patterns. Who can afford ordering 2-3 of the same pants at the time.. That's 300$ plus something.. And then you have to go through the hassle of shipping back the ones you didn't like.. And if none of them worked for you you're likely not able to order the product anymore because your size is long sold out. I'm really getting frustrated with lululemon!
Not tempted in the least. And stripes/pattern not matching up for space dye twist sapphire - just a way LLL continues to skimp on quality and charge the same or higher prices. I for one will not be buying, don't really care how pretty the pattern is. Those new to LLL unaware of this lack of quality may not pick up on it and/or may not care. I have disposable income but LLL gets less and less of it. And as this is a sample of Laurent's changes, certainly says a lot about him and not caring about the loyal, long term customer - ones who expect quality, anyway, at these prices.
I went to my local California store. None of the WUP & WUC Saffire twist lined up, but I grabbed one to consider before they sell out
Thank you to Anon 2:27 AM on August 13 for letting me know that the new Wunder Under III's are working out for you, that's very helpful coming from someone with the same problem who has tried them! :) I can't wait to get mine, should be here by Wednesday!
Just another thing I've noticed to go along with the comments on stripes not lining up - I've noticed that 2 of the 3 most recent Defines I've purchased have had the lulu symbol (the part that's stitched on the front of all Defines), the part that's stitched right at the top of the bust area, are not even on both sides of the zipper, the stitching doesn't line up on each side of the zipper. This bothers me a lot, it's a slight difference and most noticeable if the zipper is done up all the way past it, but once you see it and know it's there you just can't unsee it! :( Also, same exact thing with my new Angel Wing Scuba Hoodie, the very top part of the sysmbol above the bust is not lined up evenly on both sides of the zipper, when it's done up all the way it kinda makes it look like boobs are a little uneven, I'm sure it's only because I know it's like that and not as noticeable to others unless looking very closely, but it shouldn't be like this regardless! I have kept these items, because it's such a hassle to have to return them and even then you aren't guaranteed that the new one will line up, also, by the time I get my order (it takes a week for me), sometimes the same item is already sold out. Shouldn't have to return things because of things not lining up properly, such a hassle and shouldn't be happening as much as it is. Obviously they're trying to get things out too quickly or just not paying attention to how things are being done and the quality is suffering for sure because of it. I'm starting to find this very frustrating as it seems to be happening a lot more than usual, like I've said two out of three of my most recent Defines and a recent Scuba hoodie too, all purchased within the past few weeks. :( Also, I've noticed that a lot of the stitching on things is just overall horrendous, I have quite a few things purchased recently (In FLux Jackets, Groove Pants, High Times Pants) where it look like the stitching is going to start coming undone soon. :( I hate this so much because when (as I'm sure it's only a matter of when it does, and not if it does) it comes undone I won't be able to replace the exact same items because the colours have sold out. :( Not happy about these things :(
