Beware Of Fake Lululemon - Part VII

One more site has been added to the Beware of Fake Lululemon list.  These sites keep popping up like weeds but unfortunately they are only able to stay in business if buyers keep frequenting them and purchasing from them.  Read the site! There are more clues than just the pictures!  The prices, the broken English, the grammar and spelling errors, the location, unknown colors, unknown designs - so many clues.  Please don't be fooled by these sites.  I get so many messages from readers who have been scammed by sites like this one and are fighting to get their money refund.  Be vigilant!  

Look Who Is Wearing Lululemon

 Pregnant Kim Kardashian was spotted arriving at the gym for her workout wearing a Lululemon Define jacket in Silver Spoon Striped Pique color.

Another Lululemon Item Is Being Recalled

If you recently purchased the newly released Lululemon Wunder Under Crop in the new Candy Stripe/Aquamarine color you make want to re think your purchase.  Lulumum and Lululemon Addict posted the picture below a couple of days ago - I think the picture is self explanatory.

 

Just to be clear, the customer wearing this item is a size 4 in Lululemon bottoms and the pants photographed are also a size 4.  These are not too tight or too small for her and wearing nude color underwear would not make a difference in the sheerness of these pants!

Lululemon has explained the "mishap" in their Facebook page and has decided to pulled these off the shelves.  So if you have purchased them, you can get a refund.

My question is : Lululemon where is the quality control?  How do you justify releasing these pants to the public to purchase? If there was a proper quality control department inspecting these items prior to releasing them (you know like there used to be when these items were manufactured in Canada), this issue would have been caught and these pants would have gone straight to the outlet.  This is unacceptable! Lulu every day you disappoint me more.

Let me make another point clear - when Lululemon announced they were pulling some of the black pants off the shelves due to sheerness, customers brought to their attention that this issue was not isolated to the black fabric.  This has been an on going concern for about 2 years for many colored fabrics.  

Look Who Is Wearing Lululemon

Once again, Michelle Obama was spotted wearing lulu.  While speaking about her "Let's Move Active Schools" she showed some moves wearing a Lululemon Forme Jacket - Unfortunately, it is not a flattering jacket on her.  Lululemon's choice of color blocking is terrible!  My first impression of this jacket in this color combo reminded me of the famous Michael Jackson's Thriller jacket.  Not a fan of the Lululemon Forme Jacket - Bring

back the Define!

A New Version of The Lululemon Manifesto

Lululemon has been under fire lately with all the "sheer" problems - personally it is long overdue!  So a talented graphic designer - Erin Marie who writes her own blog under http://www.erinmarie.ca has re designed the Lululemon Manifesto with all the problems, complaints and ridiculous replies customers have received from Lululemon.  Pure genious!

lululemon Harlem Shake

This song makes me cringe! Don't really get the appeal to it.  I have to say the one thing I find funny about this video is the guy in the green mankini.
