I didn't like the Work It Out shorts much until I saw them on this girl. These are the Inkwell ones and are paired with a white Cardio Kick Tank.
New Elongate Burnout LS tops. The second photo was also labeled an Elongate but I think it might be a Devotion LS.
Heat It Up Crop and matching bra in Aquamarine/Beach Blanket Blue with an Aquamarine Forme Jacket. Also shown is a Heat It Up Bra in Pinkelicious and matching Groove Shorts.

The fact that there are this many photos released of the crops in this post and not a single shot of the backside tells you everything you need to know. How much longer can they keep this up before there is a mass exodus?
So has anyone seen them in person? Are they transparent? I love how they try to tell you that the luxtreme is no different when I have 8 years worth of luxtreme in my closet and can prove them different. I am slowly switching back to Nike...
um i'm assuming the sheer underarms of the forme jacket are a choice, not a manufacturering defect. fugly though! maybe the next ceo will bring back the define jacket. :(
OT: I'm heading to Vegas in 2 weeks. I see there is a store in a mall on the strip. Is there an outlet in/near Vegas?
@4:32 totally agree on the photos and no shots of the backside. very suspicious. I only buy Lulu for tops now, it's sad.
@ 4:32 PM, agreed. Plus, surely they've noticed the comments about photo shopping having been identified.
Hilarious, Power flow crops in white! Just waiting for the see-through reports to come rolling in (for the colours as well).
Elongate Burnout LS and Devotion LS, what is THAT all around the hips? Is that the shirt? Whether shirt or skirt it looks awful!!
I would love white crops, white looks so fresh and cheerful with bright spring and summer colors. Sadly, I can't trust lulu to make pants that are suitable for wearing to yoga classes in public venues.
That elongate burnout LS is insanely ugly. I wouldn't buy it for a buck in a thrift store even. Bring back the Every Yogi! I know it's summer, but I'll wait.
OT, but is anyone else super happy to see that the light flare/inkwell striped Forme jacket finally made its exit from WMTM?? I was tired of looking at that hideous jacket!
Any word on the sheerness of the presence pants? I soooo want to get these!
I got my YS tippy toe leggings in the mail today and I love them!!! They fit true to size and did not fall down at all during my running/jumping/lifting workout. I got the black with the Boy Blue band. It's a very pretty light blue colour. I can't wait to order more!! Thanks for sharing this awesome brand with us LLA :)
I have the Presence pants in black (I got them right before the "recall") and inkwell. They are my favorite Lulu pant, mostly because I'm 6'1" and they are sooooooooo long (even the regulars bunch up a ton at my ankles--which I like). As far as sheerness goes, I don't find them to be sheer. I'm thinking I need to get the Beach Blanket Blue ones next! I wish they'd come out in gray or burgundy.
The Australian site got the WUC in beach blue, but the WUC have disappeared in my local stores. I live in Austin, Texas, and none of the stores (2) have them. Well, they only have the color blocked WUC, but no solid colors. Is anybody else stores experiencing this?
Nope, no outlet in Vegas, but I liked the store when I visited last spring. It's in a mall right on the strip (Fashion Show Mall, I think). It's a short cab ride from anywhere on the strip.
@ anon 5:33 pm - If only lulu would bring back the Every Yogi! The Every Yogi SS and Tank were my favorites. I hate they have a new tee shirt design every season. Stick with what works.
Hey does anyone know where the devotion tee in aquamarine went on the Canadian side!? And why the American side had the bleached coral devotion tee!
They actually closed the outlet in Burnaby (near Vancouver) for good last weekend... I'm not sure why.
Im very unimpressed with everything Lulu has released. it says it all when in 6 months I just buy a water bottle and undies from Lulu. Honestly, Ive been buying from Aritzia and Winners mostly. (A little Gap) Im waiting for my Yogasmoga order to arrive, so I can review it on my private blog. Im very excited at what Ive read from everyone. :)
@Mandy, I love the Yogasmoga Boy Blue color, it is so cool and the Slimmie pants are now my absolute favorites. I got those in all3 colors, since they are reversible I didn't need their Carbon 6. The fit the feel is amazing. Cant wait for them to come out with more colors and designs. Does anyone have any news on that please? OT are there anymore reports on the Pinkalicous color bleeding or has that issue been handled?
I don't care for the sheerness of the tops, either. I miss the old pima tees (from about 2-3 years ago) that fit well and were not see through like just about every short sleeve top now.
Tired of the burnout tops. They're cute to throw on over tanks, but how many see-through tees do I really need?
The Heat it Up bra looks painful in the sternal area with that plastic piece, anyone try that on?
I received my ys crops Monday in tickled pink. After my mailman held them hostage Saturday. I immediately wore them to a Pilates/ spin class (literally I got the package, changed from wu and ran out the door lol). I love the color. Much softer than wu. No bum exposure on squat in front of mirror test and the lumpiness on back of thighs was only faintly noticeable. (Let's be honest if the cellulite really bothered me I wouldn't voluntarily be wearing pink pants) I purchased in my normal size 8 (lll size and real life size (29 jeans)). They were a little loose in the waist and the crotch appeared to droop a little after class. And I did not experience the tighteness on legs or calls, and my calfs are pretty muscular.They were definitely not as snug as wu on me and I wish I would have sized down. But then I think I am I between sizes and 6 would be snug. I washed them yesterday and going to try again in spin class. I want to order the India blue crops with my other code but 6 is on preorder. :(
Are wunderunders ever coming back?? I mean ones that aren't sheer! Anyone pls recommend a good substitute?... I lost my wunderunders and have been waiting to replace them.
The Heat It Up bra is not practical, imo. I tried it on and passed. I'm small, light support and sorry, it gapes way too much in the front. As you can even see in the photo of the blue, she is busting out of it.
Totally surprised to see that the work it out shorts are cute on that girl in the first photos. I think the photos on the website are very poor, and show off the pockets way too much. There are like 3 close ups of the hands in the pockets. Wondering how curved the hem is on the legs, it looks like they have a pretty substantial one. I might be tempted by them IF the ruching around the pockets isn't too pronounced.
I think they are a winter item so it will be a while before they come out again, look on ebay.
@ anon 9:25 am - On the YS front, I heard from Annie and they have a US factory on board and are getting them on line now. They expect to reel in the 8-12 week pre-order time by quite a bit.
I live in Vegas and that's my go to store! They have a showroom in the north west part of town only open a few days a week and super limited hours.
Love the ladies and gents at the fashion show very nice. I buy online as well and have returns. I can truly say never had bad or snotty service. They also have a really great selection of mark downs!
Also was there yesterday and they had me try the bbb power flow crops. Beautiful color not sheer and very comfy. I didn't buy them because I got a bunch of other stuff on markdown!! They had me "model" for their Facebook page! I am a very curvy size 8 and have had 2 kids and I am 36 yoa. When I say curvy my butt is big-and it wasn't see through at all.
I got Boudreaux drama Astros and inkwell Astros for like $49!! Coast to class in inkwell which lla recommended and they are awesome. I tried the forme pinkelicious and loved it. It fit differently than the other formes I've tried. I bought it! It fit my shoulders well and didnt gap up like others do.
Have a great time in Vegas! The weather is great!

miss of fitness the heat it up bra is a strange fit, It could be that I am busty 34D and I tried both the 6 and the 8. I was hoping for a replacement for the lift and separate, but it squishes me and then I am hanging out of it. I have natural breasts. I did not notice the clip hurting, but I only had it on for about 10 minutes.
There is no way I would do hot yoga in public wearing that bra.

Got my second and third order from YS today, tippy toe leggings which I LOVE! I like these more than WU. I also got the tickled pink crops, the colour is fab and quite slimming. I ordered these after receiving my india blue crops. Like most, I find the waist a bit loose but for the most part like the fit. They also sent me a free pair of crops!! A black pair with the india blue waistband. With compliments from Annie. I was shocked... I have never received a discount from lulu let alone something free!! They have my business and now waiting for them to add paypal so i can order more :)
I'm sure I will get flamed for this but I'm starting to get suspicious of all these people commenting about YogaSmoga. It's weird. The language and wording are starting to make me believe it's actually YogaSmoga commenting, especially since they have LLA's review front and center on their news page. It's just weird to me.
@ anon[ymous Lululemon employee] 4:14pm -lol - I tend to doubt it. They are a very small company. There were a lot of people who took advantage of the multiple $50 off deals who are starting to get their pants and are commenting in. There has been a good amount of criticisms in with the love them comments. As with all the comments, YMMV.
Finally got my exchange in the mail today. Originally got a size 8 (im normally a LLL size 8) but had to exchange for a 6. The fit is so much better! The 8 was slipping on me when I did runs around the house and the crotch was baggy. The size 6 is much better! This time, I didn't experience the tight calf (weird considering I went down a size). The color is gorgeous and the fabric is awesome!
@ 4:14pm. I can assure you, I am a real person who lives in Canada and has no associations whatsoever with YS.....
I'm adding my two cents on YS on this blog, because it's a wonderful alternative to LLL.
And like LLA said, I took advantage of BOTH $50 off offers, and commented on both pairs of crops I got from those deals.
@ Anon 4:14 pm: if I knew how to upload a pic of my Yogasmoga Slimmies with this post, I would! I live in Ontario, Canada so I have absolutely no affiliation with this company from NYC other than buying their product. LLLA's blog has a huge following, just check the reader count on the right hand side of her blog! LLLA's readers appreciate her thoughtful, honest reviews so when she writes that she's impressed with Yogasmoga's apparel, we believe her because we trust her opinion. Now, add to that a $50 off promo code, and it's certainly not surprising that so many people want to check out Yogasmoga's clothing.
BTW, I was very impressed with my YS Slimmies, but unfortunately they were too big in the waist and crotch. I'm just waiting to receive the return label from them so that I can send them back to exchange for a size 4...I'll have to wait 8-12 weeks to receive the new pair, but as I said, I'm not surprised at all that so many people are trying Yogasmoga!
@ Liz - fYI - Annie wrote me that Yogasmoga got their US factory on board and are getting it up to speed so they should beat their pre-order timeline of 8-12 weeks by quite a bit.
