I’m Lulu for Lululemon

What is black or wildly colorful, covers ALL asses and makes them look fab? Lululemon. Seriously. Just check out the Marina District in San Francisco any old day and you’ll all kinds of woman parading around in workout wear that makes them look great. Based on the law of averages, there is no possible way that all those women have just come from the gym and have the perfect booty. No way.

But it looks that way.

Baby’s got back? Put on a pair of lululemon pants and watch out. Smoking good behind! Flat as a pancake? It’s no match for lululemon. It’ll magically appear high and perky.

And, this you should know about me…I don’t joke about flat butts. I have a flat butt. I need all the help I can get when it comes to my backside. I have one pair of dance pants from lululemon and they fit me perfectly. Why? Because 1) they are made of miracle ass fabric and 2) lululemon hems ALL PANTS when you buy them, so they look perfect.

Lululemon also has bras, tanks, tops, skirts, headwear and more, but what you’ll see on the streets most often are their awesome pants.

Lululemon has stores all over the country now. And in Canada. But check the website and buy something if you need a little lift in your derrier.

I cannot say enough great things about how these workout pants make any – no EVERY – butt look great. I dare you to wear a pair and NOT appreciate your own backside.

    ha, in the 80s it was spandex pants under an oversized shirt, now it’s a very similar tight black pant with teeny tiny tees. The shirts have shrunk but the leggings have kind of stayed the same.

    I am not sure when yoga pants replaced the blue jean as a mom’s everyday look, but we all certainly appear more athletic than ever before, even without a gym membership!

    They customize the fit to me? I’m in.

    BAD EXPERIENCE @ LULULEMON
    I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING THERE AGAIN
    I had bought a top for my daughter for her Birthday in Aventura, FL, and when she tried to exchange it for a different size, they REFUSED, because it was just outside of their 14 day return policy, which appeared ambiguous to me, and it was a GIFT.  They failed to put a Gift receipt in the bag with the top, and the sales girl well knew it was a gift, because I requested it be gift wrapped, which they CANNOT DO either.

    Customer Service, I do not see it, even after I spoke to their corporate offices, they still refused to accept the exchange.  Hopefully, this blog will send them a message that customer service comes first, and would have been more profitable in the long run.

    For me, I will NEVER BUY any LULULEMON again.  You might not want to either if you support me and real customer service.

    LULU’s own MANIFESTO clearly states “Friends are more important than money”, and clearly “THAT’S A LIE”

    @4444michael That’s a terrible experience. Hopefully what happened to you isn’t the norm. I’ve personally never had a problem with them, but then again I haven’t had to return anything because it’s all been so great. Hmm. Good to know, though. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Lululemon IS a Canadian company with headquarters in Canada. lol.
    I like lululemon personally but I do not buy from there any longer as much of their stuff is made in Asia and not in North America anymore and there are many other brands out there like Tonic or Lotuswear that are still making the clothes and having the materials from here.

  • Kate

    @Nudd I didn’t know about Tonic or Lotuswear, thanks!

    Lulu Lemon is a Canadian company, started in BC. The pants are ridiculously expensive and far too many women wear them out in public. They are YOGA /WORKOUT pants, not a replacement for real pants/shorts when going out. Why are we treating leggings and yoga pants as acceptable outerwear? Put on your jeans before you leave your house and be done with it. You look lazy, not cute and athletic. I also really don’t want to see more cameltoe.

    Also, I loathe the hairdo shown in that picture for anything other than working out. It takes all of 2 minutes to do a really cute ponytail for daytime, or a cute messy bun(not on top of your head). It looks ridiculous, lazy and almost as bad as the stupid bun on top of your head.

    Glad to hear about the unfriendly customer service…in this day and age, I don’t tolerate shabby service – no matter how good a product appears to be – I honor myself by refusing to purchase their Brand! Lulu – no thank you, I will look into shopping somewhere else. And, really – let us keep our workout clothes for our workout.

    They are expensive but I’ve had some of my Lululemon yoga pants for 5 years and they still look the same so they are great value. (I can’t say that about Nike or any of the other big brands). I love mine and wear them to the gym almost every day. IMHO women look fabulous in yoga pants. Leggings need to be worn with a long sweater/tshirt that covers your butt IMHO :)
    Women in BC are quite casual in their way of dressing, it’s true. Might be because we walk, hike, ride, spin, run, walk the dog, rollerblade, etc rain or shine. I think we have a culture of physical activity. Btw I heard my sons (34 and 27) say that they love Lululemon pants on girls.
    Some people on this site are a bit negative. Let’s try and be nice, shall we?

    @ tracy, I do not believe poeple here are being negative. they are just sharing their views on an overpriced product. Me personnaly , I will NEVER pay that money on casual wear, i rather spend my money on a pair of burberry jeans or guess or whatever else if I want my butt to look great, or whatever brand suits me, and makes me look classy and well dressed. I live in Toronto, I do yoga, I run, my body looks great, and I will never ever go out with sweat pants and I will never spend 98 on yoga pants, if this compay was i truth honest in maing the world a better place, they wouldn’t use child labor in china, and they woud have very affordable prices for everyone, so we can all embrace a green clean lifestyle, not just the rich. Sorry, but this company turns my stomack upside down.

  • marina

    I apreciate my back side, because I work hard at it, I don’t have to spend thousands of dollars on lululemon wear to make me look great,and no one has to either, if you pay a consultant for a day, they will take you shoping and teach you what fits you and what not, from any brand. I rather put that money towards helping my comunity, saving for trips, or even buy the real glamourous clothes, so when I go out I look REALLY hot, and not like another bum in lululemon ;)
