New Lululemon Flow Y Bra

I bought the black heathered coal mini check Flow Y bra from Lululemon's website when they had some sales the day after Christmas.  I was pretty disappointed at the sale in general though, this bra was the only thing I got.  I think 2-3 years ago, they had a HUGE sale with super marked down prices, and I went crazy.  Fingers crossed that will happen again.

Here's my bra:



I actually really like this print and wish I could have bought some Wunder Unders or something in it.  I'm not sure if they ever came in it but that would be pretty cute.  I've been wanting a black or dark gray bra for a while since all my sports bras are so bright and colorful.  It's nice to have a muted neutral color once in a while.  But I really don't like buying black or gray tops, so this was a perfect compromise especially on sale at $29 lol.

Although I do have a New Year's Resolution of shopping less, especially from Lululemon.  I think I have way more athletic wear than any sane person should.  I don't know why I'm addicted to overpriced workout wear!!!

Of course I should also shop less, period.  I feel like I should save more money.  In 2011, I managed to save 20% of my gross income (not counting my 401k through work), but I really should be saving more because honestly I waste a lot of money that could be better spent elsewhere.  Boy this will be a hard resolution to fulfill!

I actually can't think of many other New Year's Resolutions.  What I can think of are kind of lame, like:

1.  Eat healthy and workout, as usual, to lose what I've gained through this holiday season and stay fit in general.  
2.  Finally get my CFA designation after I pass the Level 3 exam in June.  
3.  I want to pay like $600-800 more a month towards mortgage so I can save on years of interest in the long run (I've calculated it out exactly on my financial calculator since I'm a nerd).  
4.  Use my brokerage account more and try to pick good investments since I'm sick of my 1% savings account interest.
5.  Other than that, I just want to sleep more lol.  I love sleeping and need at least 8 hours a night to be happy.  
6.  Oh yeah, and do at least 2 big trips in 2012.  

Hmm might as well add winning the lotto to the list because that would be amazing!!  =D

  2. We've been adding $1000 to our monthly mortgage for years and our house will be paid off in 2 years!! It takes discipline but it's such a good feeling.

    Good resolutions!!

  3. there were 2 colors of wunder unders with this fabric and they are amazing (crops and full length). Also, a long sleeve that came in several different colors AND a vinyassa scarf, and a Power Y tank.

  5. @audrey: good thing I took French for 3 years in high school so I understood what you said! But I can't respond in French... LOL!

    @Anon 6:52: Wow that's amazing!!! I came up with an aggressive (but totally doable) plan of paying mine off in the next 5 years if I put in extra $800 a month and a big lump sum payment each year end. But I'm not sure if it will be worth it to put so much money into the house when my interest rate is quite low, and I can maybe find better investments for my money.

    @Anon 9:49 and 5:02: I guess I missed out. I don't think I've seen it in stores the past few times I went so they are probably sold out. =(
