This isn't a rant about vertical sleeve, but more a rant about Lululemon, the fitness clothing company. I live in So. Cal. where the Lululemon logo is as ubiquitous as Starbucks and luxury car emblems...so, I'm feeling pretty good about myself, and decided to go to their website and check out a pair of their workout pants...and you know what their largest size is??? A 12.....which they have the audacity to describe as XL. Even when I get to that size I am very tempted to give a big F U to them on principal.

Wow...I've always been jealous of my friends who seem to live in Lululemon...that's disappointing!

Unfortunately, these companies can size things how they want. If being a size 12 is considered and XL, then I guess my goal is to be XL! Ha!

I do think that their whole brand is targeted at a luxury clientele that does a little yoga inbetween lunching with the ladies and redecorating the beach house...(snark alert, haha)...it kinda reminds me of Abercrombie only going up to a certain size because they only want their clothes on a certain body type. A shame, for sure...and stupid, if you ask me! It ignores a whole other consumer set and their money...which functions the same no matter what size you are.

I've never thought about their sizing...the only time I've ever been in their store is to purchase a gift card for my daughter's volleyball coach (who was a self-professed *lover* of all their things.)

I never bothered to look at their sizes because I couldn't get past their prices. Who charges that for *workout* wear? gah! Not my bag.

$60 for a sports bra, $100 for a pair of pants?!? Oh my... even if I were their version of an XL, they still wouldn't be getting the money that I don't have.
