I'm bumping this thread to give a thumbs up to Yogasmoga. I bought the twisty tank and the free to play crops using the $75 off holiday code. The capris actually rival if not surpass the quality of lululemon IMO.

Didn't read this whole thread but I use to be devoted to lululemon and last week I bought Lucy pants and love them. I bought three different styles and love them all. I usually only wear black on the bottom but this week I got an email about new color one's, read the reviews which were excellent, so I ordered them and can't wait till they get here. I don't have a Lucy store by me but was traveling last week and got to try on which always makes me feel better. I will say I didn't like their tops as well as Lulu's but highly recommend the pants. Oh, price wise they may be a little better but not much.

I've only ever bought a couple of things from Lulu--I have some arm warmers I bought for like $11 off their "we made too much" page and a headband. I like what I have from them, but overall I think they are overpriced and nothing really jumps out at me from their clothing line.

For running clothes I love, love, love Oiselle. Their Roga shorts are really cute and flattering (not baggy like other running shorts) and they don't ride up. I like both the regular length and the long Rogas--the long ones have a really roomy side zip pocket which is great, especially for longer runs when you have to carry gels or food with you. For some reason it's hard to find women's running shorts with good pockets. I also have a few Oiselle tops and I like them a lot.

I really like Target's line of workout clothes. They usually have cute, bright colors and styles, and everything I have has held up really well in the wash. I've had some luck at Old Navy and Kohl's as well.

the VS ones are good material, last a long time. but they are basic, no special functions or special flattering aspects. I have had a pair for 3 yrs now still doing good

I have yet to try Lorna Jane "compression" pants but my friends swear by it, says it "sucks you in" and is very flattering.

I have had a lot of success with Athleta and the Champion line at Target. Both brands make things in different lengths, which is a must for tall women like me. And on a random note, Costco Kirkland brand makes great workout clothes. Who knew?

I'm from the DC area, and the Lululemon murders dominated the news here when it happened and for years afterwards. So I can't even walk past that store without thinking about that. Therefore I stick to Nike. I love it cause the clothes are pretty much indestructible (I've had one shirt for three years and it still looks the same as the day I bought it!!) and you can find them on clearance everywhere, from Nordstrom Rack to Marshalls.
