Anyway, as far as my workouts go, I had a very good week so there is that. The last couple weeks have been great actually. I am able to lift more than I did before for almost every single exercise. When I first started weight training, I was able to increase weight at a pretty rapid pace which is what happens to everyone initially. But at some point that stops and it becomes much slower to be able to make progress. I had been stuck at about the same weights for a while now. So to be able to increase finally just feels really good.

Sunday 6/15 - Rest day! I did wear my workout clothes to go out and grocery shop in though haha. I wore the Lorna Jane Wild at Heart tank with Lorna Jane Somersault bra under. Diesel faccyo shorts (I wonder if it's supposed to be pronounced like "F-you"? lol) and French Connection Maria wedge sneakers - I never wrote about these, but I got them a couple months ago on Gilt and have been wearing them a lot! They are comfy and black goes with everything.
And that's the end of the week! Time went by way too fast this weekend. I hope you all had a great one, and talk to you soon!
Hey -- love your blog -- and totally OT -- but I was curious if you had any insight into the rumored Lorna Jane buyout as well as the rumors that analysts are saying that lululemon is ripe for a takeover given there new low stock price?
ReplyDeleteI thought Lorna Jane was already half owned by a private equity firm and that is how they got the money to expand so quickly in the US a couple years ago? I'm not sure if they would be sold again so quickly. I think the goal for private equity firms is to hold for a while and then take companies public. But I really don't know much about this.
DeleteI wouldn't be surprised if Lululemon gets bought out. I remember hearing rumors a while ago that Nike was interested. Haven't heard anything lately... but I think whoever buys it probably would not change it in the immediate future since there's a lot of brand loyalty. Let's hope there won't be more cost cutting and declining in quality if that did happen.
