Meaghan's Favourite lululemon Pieces

There is no denying I’ve been a major fan of lululemon for over 15 years. As an active teen getting into the gym, I was forced to wear soccer shorts, baggy cotton t-shirts and ill-fitting sports bras because women’s athletic wear was, well, non-existent at that time. (Okay, so I’m dating myself here a little!).

Since my very first pair of lululemon pants (which I still have and use, by the way), I’ve been hooked. From the gym to hiking to snowboarding to work, my lululemon gear takes me everywhere. I get asked all of the time about what my favourite pieces are so I thought I’d share here so you know exactly what I love and why I can’t get enough.


—TRAINING/GYM —

INVIGORATE HIGH RISE TIGHT (25”)

When this pant first hit the scene, I was immediately hooked. The buttery soft feel of the Align yoga pant plus the performance of the Fast & Free AND POCKETS? You had me at pockets.

What I love:

  • Moisture-wicking and quick-dry

  • Tight waistband so they don’t fall down

  • Large and stretchy pockets for any size of iPhone

  • The perfect length (25”) which is full length on my short frame (5’3”) but also perfectly cropped for my taller pals

  • Also available in 23”and 28”

ENERGY BRA

I’ve owned more of these bras than I care to count. They are my go-to, my everyday piece that I wear to hike, workout, stroll around down, go to work or lounge on the couch.

What I love:

  • Has so many varieties - classic, longline, highneck, high support

  • Comfortable and supportive for both smaller and larger chests

  • Great for higher impact activities

  • Very breathable for hiking and summer activities

  • Even as they stretch over the years, I still use them for travel or lounging-around-home bras (and I literally mean years… I still use my very first one)

  • Classic style that fits under all types of tank tops

WUNDER TRAIN PANT

This perfectly-plain-but-functional pant supports me in the gym but also in yoga and day-to-day. Hands down the most multi-purpose tights in my closet.

What I love:

  • Moisture-wicking and quick-dry

  • Comfortable yet slightly compressive for a hugged feel

  • Tight waistband so they don’t fall down

  • No leg pockets so I can wear them day-to-day with any outfit

  • Offered in a variety of lengths but I prefer the 25”

WUNDER TRAIN LONGLINE BRA (C/D CUP)

This piece can be either worn alone or as a bra under a shirt. With the long line length, I feel covered enough that it feels like a shirt without having to wear the extra layer, or if I want more coverage, I can throw on a light tank and it still looks cute.

What I love:

  • Soft, buttery feel with enough held-in compression that I know my girls are under control

  • Comfortable yet supportive for larger-than-average chests

  • High neck coverage so no peekaboo moments when I’m bent over for a deadlift or burpee-ing around

  • Super frickin’ cute even with a pair of high-waisted denim shorts in the summer months

Base Pace Ribbed Tank Top

This new-kid-on-the-block has quickly become my new favourite tank. WIth a flattering cut and high neck fit, I feel perfectly covered but with enough breathability that I stay cool as a cucumber no matter how hard I’m working.

What I love:

  • Full coverage tank that still breathes

  • Can order your normal size for a snug fit or one size up for a more loose, casual look

  • Perfect length even for those of us with shorter torsos

  • Ribbing detail gives it a nice textured look

—HIKING —

Fast and free high rise tight (25”)

This classic tight has been around for a long time and for a good reason - they’re breathable, light-weight, quick-drying and have loads of pockets, hence why these are my go-to hiking pants especially for mega hot BC summers.

What I love:

  • Side and waist pockets to hold phones, snacks, keys, anything!

  • So thin and light that it feels like you’re not wearing pants at all

  • No seam around the ankle makes them comfortable with socks in hiking boots

  • Very stretchy and comfortable waistband for long days on the trails

swiftly racerback tank

Another classic lululemon item, the Run Swiftly Tank is my go-to for sweaty situations. With Silverescent to keep stink away and mesh panels to keep you cool in the spots you need it most. I also love the long sleeve version (see below) to layer on top of the tank for cool starts and warm finishes on big trail days.

What I love:

  • Classic fit that will never go out of style

  • Breathable and anti-stink for super hot days

  • It literally never stinks… I don’t know how they do it

  • Layerable with other Swiftly pieces

  • Light and packable

SWIFTLY tech LONG SLEEVE top, race length

This staple is always in my activewear wardrobe. On it’s own or as a layer on outdoor active days, this multi-purpose top provides a full-coverage, anti-stink layer that works great if your hike starts out a little chilly or, as we know all to well in BC, there’s a lot of mosquitoes and you need a bit of protection.

What I love:

  • Lightweight, breathable and packable

  • Can be worn in the gym, on the mountain or on the plane

  • Literally. Never. Smells. (Magic).

  • Has thumbholes - because who doesn’t love those

  • Feels like a second skin

For reference, I’m usually between 130-140 lbs and 5’3” tall with an athletic build and a 32F bust size. I usually wear a size 6 in tops/bras and 4 or 6 in bottoms. I like my items to be quite tight for compression and also because overtime they can loosen slightly.
