The Time I Chickened Out


Went to Lululemon (LOVE!)  

*All model pictures are from their site.

Really wanted this tank,
but was too self conscious to try it on.
So I found a somewhat similar style, but with a bit more coverage.

I had trouble picking between black and the blue patterned, but went with the blue.
I loved the long length of this tank and the cool detailing on the back.
However, unlike the model I will never be wearing a matching bra,
some days I'm just lucky to find matching socks.
I love my Run: A Marathon Crop so much that I got it in the short version.
It still has the same great deep pockets and zip key holder.
Now, it's time to pray I have finally found a pair of shorts that won't give me chub rub.  Fingers crossed guys!
I also splurged and got another pair of crops.
They didn't have the Marathon in my size,
 so I decided to try the Run: Nothing to Hide Crop.
I love that it has the same deep pockets and really like the fold over waist band.
Too bad it doesn't have a zip key pocket.
However, while I found great clothes
(My reward for finishing the Run Streak was supposed to be one pair of pants, whoops!)
I totally wussed out on my other goal.
The first time I went into Lululemon opening weekend I feel in LOVE.
Loved how cute, comfortable, and functional the clothes were,
 and loved how friendly and helpful the salespeople were.
I knew this was a group I wanted to somehow be a part of...
then I found out they have Lululemon Ambassadors.
Dream come true.  Right?
I applied, but never heard anything back.
I figured talking to people at the store was the way to go
(since ambassadors are location specific and chosen at the local store level).

I was ready....
I went on a Tuesday at 11:30 so the store wouldn't be as busy
Wore my favorite LuLulemon crops and mint green tank.
Carried my brand new blog business cards in my purse.
Was a fabulous customer buying 2 shirts, shorts, and a pair of crops.
But, did I mention anything to anyone about my application or my desire to be an ambassador - No!
You guessed it,
I totally chickened out.
Now what?
What would you all do if you were in my situation?  Help!

However, I did get a pretty walk around downtown out of it and
lunch at one of my favorite healthier places, Taziki's.
I had a Greek Salad Gyro add grilled chicken with fresh fruit as my side.
Then I stopped and got fro-yo to drown my sorrows.
Mostly nonfat no sugar added coconut with a bit of strawberry on top.
It's covered in blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, coconut, a few yogurt raisins, plus one piece each of: brownie, cookie dough, and reeses cup.

Then when I got home I had a surprise waiting.
A box of Vega Energizing Smoothies.
I cannot wait to bust into these.
You can all look forward to a review
and the chance to win your very own box next week:)
