I ordered the newest
midnight iris multi cool racerback from Lululemon on Monday night. I wasn't really sure about the color/print since I didn't see it in person, and I was half prepared to have to return it. If you've read my blog long enough, you are probably aware that I am not normally drawn to prints, especially flowery prints. But for some reason this one kind of captured my attention! So I went ahead and got it. I figured I could always return it later. It arrived today and I actually think I like it! The iris flower print could look old-ladyish very easily, but I think because they made it so dark that it actually looks kind of cool and edgy!
This cool racerback is actually made in Canada. It is 94% polyester, but it feels different/better than my
petit dot dune one which is mostly poly as well. This one feels thicker and softer/less scratchy. Just better qualify fabric feel in general.
And here it is on me - the print looks pretty subtle like this:
This is it up close... I like how the brighter parts of the flower kind of reflects the light a little and looks almost metallic:
I wouldn't have liked this print at all if it looked like how it does below, which I took under bright light. But I think Lulu did a good job with it making it very dark and subtle.
Somewhat of a surprise, but I actually think this one is a keeper!
