8-10 month wait as they screen applicants. What do they do, run FBI background checks?

2 teen girls and they both have a lot of Lulu. Birthday and Christmas presents. We have a store near us in a high end mall frequented by mainly older women. We’re able to find 0’s there.

I have a lot of their leggings and shorts too. The best to run in.

My daughter got a gift card for her birthday which she used on a pair of camo joggers. I also bought her a shirt from the outlet for $9. It's neon yellow so I can see why it was at the outlet.

I think Lululemon is a good exercise in cost per wear. My DD wants a gray Swiftly Tech shirt she can wear every day and a belt bag that will be used at least 2-3 times a week but is okay with buying a tennis skirt dupe and an Align tank top dupe because the school dress code only allows her to wear these items during the summer.

You can buy secondhand but the smaller your kid is, the more expensive and harder to find. That goes for the Lulu website as well-size 20 is on sale while size 2 has never gone done in price.

I have a feeling Lululemon will go out of style a few months after school starts again. Birkenstocks seem to be in style again so maybe VSCO girls will come back.

Yup. DD12’s friend got DD shorts for her birthday this year which bothered me because who besides close relatives spends that much for a 6th grade birthday gift? Both my girls have a few items—some from the outlet, a couple from a resale shop, and my 14 had a sizeable gift card last year at Xmas because her sister had an expensive tech gift and that was how DH evened things out. At least they can share and once they outgrow what they have I’ll be able to sell it since the quality is good.

My DS18 wears it too—he has a pair of pants which fit him well (not easy to find when you’re 6’3” and have a small waist and really muscular legs). He also got neon green shorts for $20 at the outlet and they’re so ugly.

I own nothing from there because my Gen-x mindset is still leggings are for exercise and are not pants, plus nobody wants to see my size 12 body in that. I’m not spending that much on clothing to sweat in when I can go across the street to Old Navy and get perfectly good exercise apparel for under $20.

lol

I so wish my MIL did not send my daughter's $25 gift cards from Lulu. She started this awful "must have it" obsession with them both. Best I can do is find a thing or two at the thrift store and pass it along to them. Otherwise, my teens have to save their money and feel what it feels to shell out $100 for an item. It usually shocks the system and they don't go back for more.

Obsessed. Last time we went to a store they didn't have anything her size (0/2). The clerk said it's because they're always cleaned out by tween girls. That size flies off the shelves.

Nope. Just a parent of a teen.

The ceo said you can steal from their stores and there are no problems

So dunno why people are complaining about the price

Give her a budget/allowance and let her manage it.

They rarely have them in her size (0).

Quite popular with my teen still - typically only buys on sale or at consignment. If she really wants something at retail I might offer to pay up to what I think is a reasonable amount for that item and she needs to pay the rest.
