My Pique Vinyasa Arrived

I have tried Vinyasas in the past and always returned them but I think I may keep this one. It's super soft, thick, and cozy. And!!! It has finished edges! I'm not sure when lululemon started finishing the edges on the Vinyasas but it's about time. I have always hated the past versions with unfinished edges, it looks mega cheap:

Old Vinyasa with unfinished edge


PS - for those of you equally Vinyasa-challenged as me, here is the lulu video on how to wear it.

PPS - I got this Vinyasa so I could tuck it into the big open neck of the Post Chaturanga Pullover.

Ooo I can't wait to get mine!

OT - I got my YS tippy toe legging and yantra top in the mail today, and I LOVE them!! The material is so soft, comfortable, and functional. I do agree with another reviewer that the material on the legging has a bit of shine, but it is barely noticeable. Also, I do not like the symbol placement at all. The little symbol on the back waistband confuses me; it looks like it is misplaced. Additionally, the symbol itself confuses me lol maybe I just don't like the YS symbol. As for the tank, it is a little low cut so I'm nervous to wear it to yoga, but I'll wait and see. Also, the tank could be a little longer for us 5'9" girls :) Other than that, I am really excited about my YS purchase!

All of this season's vinyasa scarves have had finished edges! So much better - I refused to buy the unfinished ones because I agree that they look cheap.

Now if only they would go back to the original logo placement instead of putting it on that ribbon.

I have 2 with unfinished edges and 1 black and soot micro or macro stripe and I do NOT like the finished edges and ribbon! The ribbon is scratchy against my neck and I constantly have to adjust it so it doesn't irritate my neck. I think the new one is pretty but it is NOT comfortable at all! That's why I didn't buy the piqué. The ribbon and rough finished edges bothers me.

I surprisingly fell in love with brisk bloom black white. I'm usually not a fan of flower pattern but this is so beautiful. Already bought the scuba hoodie, eyeing on Carry Me Om Tote now.

OT but has anyone tried Cory Vines?

Has anyone else had issues with their YS bottoms being very shiny? I'm returning them if I can but just wondering if I got a bad batch or it's a known issue.

Lauren said...

Mine have a little shine, but you can hardly tell.

How come your scarf has such a thin strip of the black ribbon and then has fabric at the end? Mine has a thick strip of black ribbon that extends all the way to the end. It seems like all the other photos of the scarf are like mine. Is there two different versions?

No Shine on my YS tippy toes from the recent batch or on the Slimmie pants from the first batch. Slimmie's are still my go to pants for everything.

I have 2 gratitude wraps in a sz 2 in inkwell and black. Planning to return them to the store - too long for my short self. If you are interested before Wednesday (when I plan on returning), send me an email. $129 each. You pay shipping and fees. I don't really sell much so I have no idea how much shipping is at this time. Will most likely figure it out when I get to the post office.

My contact is qnnguyen@me.com

Is anyone willing to angel me a pair of pants? They are still in stock on the U.S. side. They are pique black wunder unders in a size 8. If so please email me at anita99@outlook.com Thanks!

The chick in the "how to wear your vinyasa scarf" is about the cutest thing ever!

@6:26 - If you are getting a lot of shine, you are in the wrong size or in between size. I was getting shine in my lulu and athleta last year and store told me that I was wearing a size smaller and stretching the fabric too much so the lyra in the fabric was showing through. The shine apparently is from the lycra when its stretched.

I had yogasmoga tippy toe and now the ballerina and there is no shine in mine - tippy toe is in black and the ballerina in grey. I am a size 8 in both yogasmoga and lulu. Hope this helps.

Regarding my YS tippy toe leggings, I am starting to notice that they pick up A LOT of lint… I mean they are covered in lint. This is disappointing for how comfortable they are. A $96 pair of leggings should not gather lint covering the entire leg.

Hiya, off topic but check out the additional upload to our NZ/Aus site. Brisk bloom Nice Asana, WU and quite a few angel wings items...Oh my aching wallet!!!

I felt it in the store & fell in love with it! I agree..so soft and beautiful..but..I bought the other black striped one earlier in the fall & can't justify another that looks so similar. Wish it would come out in the lighter grays.
And I 'll never get all of the acronyms & sassy color names down. :)

@ Lauren - unfortunately the Aurum fabric is as big if not bigger pet hair/lint magnet than luon, which is a bummer. You still have to keep a lint roller handy with them.

LuluAddict said...

@ anon 9:41 am - thanks! I will check it out.

Lauren said...

LLA, yeah, major bummer. I still love the feel of them though! And the higher waistband! I don't find myself pulling them up as often as I do with my WUPs.

Thanks but I don't think I'm wearing the wrong size in the YS pants. I ordered a 6 and I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs. I hardly think I need to size up to an 8. I'm beginning to think the quality is just subpar.

I had the same issues with YS pants. I returned them. No bueno.

Yea I didn't like the finished edges either. I don't like how you can see the seam and how it was a little scratchy. I love my piqué scarf from a few years ago and it seems thicker than the new one.

I am loving the yogasmoga tippy toe leggings which I got in the mail yesterday, no shine very comfortable and love the compression of the fabric on me. I don't have any pets so can't tell you about the lint factor. The rise is definitely working wonders, dont have to keep on pulling them up. I am 5'5" 130lbs and use size 8 in both lulu and yogasmoga. Lastly that jodhpur color is amazing, haven't seen anything just like it yet. I should've ordered the tank top in the same color too.
