36 week check-in

I can buy this to be a diaper bag right? I’ve never owned anything lululemon and that’s for a very intentional reason. From what I understand, buying this brand is like getting a tattoo.  Once you get one thing, you want another, and then another, and pretty soon you can’t stop…and your bank account is wiped.  I’ve been in the store several times (I’ve tried on lots of yoga pants).  But I just haven’t been able to pull the trigger out of fear that what I said above is true.  But if I buy this… Read more >
