Shopping at Lululemon - Designer change?

Hello Lululemon Fans

I was shopping in the Lululemon store the other day and could not find a piece I REALLY REALLY liked. I know back when Lululemon originally started, they had some great jacket designs with racing stripes, including great colours and great styles etc.., but now it seems they are going into the whole street wear thing and the colours are too bold and bright.

Does anyone know if the original Lululemon designer left?

I'm a Karma shopper now :)

Crazy Housing Prices

I was walking around the Kitsilano/4th avenue neighbourhood over the weekend and noticed allot of for sale signs. I decided to call one up. I can't believe that both condos and houses around here are going in the million dollar range when a a majority of the population living here is Young Professionals. Blah, I guess we will never be able to really own something down here unless we become millionaires :(

Asian Girls and Caucasian Guys

The government is right, there will be a flood of Eurasian children in the school system by 2008/2009. Well, the Kitsilano/4th avenue neighbourhood is certainly helping with this.

Just in my last few months here, I have seen a ton of Caucasian guys with Asian girls and Asian guys with Caucasian girls. The typical scenario has been more Caucasian guys with Asian girls, but I think there is getting to be a balance now.

So, if you are a single Asian girl looking for a Caucasian guy or vice versa, Kitsilano is THE place to meet!

Dog Friendly Neighbourhood

Kits is definitely a dog friendly neighbourhood. You can have your dogs off-leash by the beach (one section), stores have water dishes outside, and some even offer treats. Many accommodations are even dog-friendly, but you'll have to hunt for those.

HAPA comes to Kitsilano

Interesting, more and more Asian restaurants are popping up in Kitsilano. That should help drive up the Asian population in this hood :) Some interesting statistics on the kitsilano Neighbourhood: http://www.bizmapbc.com/pages/neighbourhood-profile/kitsilano-4th-avenue.php#10
