All right..I have a question for ya'
So for Christmas my sweet hubby gave me some lululemon $$$. For a few weeks I've been going there checking if and what their stock of new 'scuba' tops were. I have to say it's been a while since I've spent this kind-a money on a single item. So I wanted to make a good choice.....well, when I got home the other night and showed my dear the top I had gotten .... he was less than thrilled with it. Now, it's not a big deal, there are many things that he thinks that I'm crazy for wearing or having as an accessory...but because he gave it to me for Christmas...well I want your option. I'm gonna try inserting a video of me wearing it and then I want you to leave your thoughts on it. If you don't love it you have to give the reasons why. O.K. here it goes....

YAY! It worked! Great video!! I am so glad we got it up and running!
I for the record, I DO like the top. I love patterned hoodies, something unique and a bit different from the rest. Good choice. I hope Todd learns to love it!
Keep up the posting, or else big Bri will track you down and mock you mercilessly!
hmmm well...I like it and think its very cute on you. But maybe your hubby had something else in mind. Dan often hates things that I fall in love with until...I start to wear them. Then he forgets that he hated the items and realizes that I fell in love with them for a reason! so...I say if you love it than just go for it! hugs Shantala
I like it & I think it's you! It is different from the rest & I totally think you can pull it off! (Sorry Todd) You can wear it with black or throw in a splash of colour like you did with the blue! There - does that justify keeping it? :)
Hey Thanks Ladies! It's so fun to get to share these silly things this way. Thanks Kirsten; my cpu~wiz!! I think Todd just checked out the sight from work and is about to leave a note...can't wait to see it!
Nope - it looks like turn of the century english wallpaper to me ;-)
The problem here Rayael is that you can make a burlap potato sack look pretty hot ....
You should have posted a picture of the jacket all by itself so that people can create an objective opinion about the jacket without being distracted and somewhat biased by your natural beauty! Man my wife is hot!
:-) Todd xoxo
Heeehee...he's funny!
Hi!!! I didn't even know you had a blog. I LOVE IT, consider me a new fan - of your blog AND the sweater. I am NOT lying to you, I was there yesterday and picked it up and was so tempted to buy it because I think it's the best hoodie ever. Great choice. It will grow on Todd, and if it doesn't then you can both giggle everytime you wear it. Him giggling at you, and you giggling at him giggling at you.
Nope, have to agree with Todd's comment. I think it says I'm trying too hard and ends up looking tacky. Plus, it will date very quick.
I appreciate your 'honesty' but unless you post a name by your comment...I have to disregard it. Some very wise advice I learned from a pastor in Vancouver. Is this SRM? Or Special "J"
Hey ray,ray,
I was also there today and i was with my sister.We love that hoodie and I think it totally suits the ray ray that I know!!yay for lu-lu!!Bethy and her little fashionista
Sienna.Where's the baby scuba's, wouldn't that be cute!!
Well, as you already knew before my comment it DOES suit you, it IS different and even if it DOES date quickly - who cares? Go buy another one! he he.....RR
I finally linked your blog to mine...you know, now that you are becoming more of a 'regular' :)
Dear Blogger,
I am sorry for having created such a scandal for posting my comment. Seeing as I do not know you, I might should not have posted a comment. (maybe you should block anonymous people)Usually when people ask for other's honest opinion they should be willing to hear it, not just what they would like to hear. If you like it then have fun wearing it.
I apologize for my interferrance.
All the best with your blog.

Ah no Rayael I generally don't comment on what people are wearing unless it's like REALLY Tragic, the sweater is not my style but then again I am not wearing it. Some Special Random J
I have to say that I'm thrilled to hear ALL types of comments. It really is quite fun finding out peoples thoughts in this way. And to the BB, I appreciate your interest just as much as the next guy. I know that Todd will be glad that he had another in his option corner. (PS the tag is still attached in my pocket...but I have now worn it 'out & about'...I think we have a keeper.)
You MUST keep that sweater because it is so fun! And tell Todd if he wants you in something specific THEN DON'T WIMP OUT WITH A GIFT CARD!!! Shane got me a Lulu gift card for Christmas, too, by the way. He doesn't get to comment on the purchase I made. Heehee! Let me know how you got a video on there! That's wicked!
Pregnant and getting pudgier,
Tracey
Hey Rayael,
I love it... on you... I don't think I would try to pull it off. And I have to agree with Tracey that if Todd wants say in what you wear, then he needs to get you the item, not tbe GC...but personally, I'd rather have the GC, so I could pick it out!! (especially if it's from my MIL...she's bought me clothes before and they went RIGHT BACK!!!! - I know I'm safe posting this, because my MIL and dh will never find your site!!!!)
Anyway, now I'm babbling... so cool that you got a video on there! Gonna have to try that!
Sarah
Sarah - I'm gonna tell your MIL & DH where Rayael's site is :) Kidding!
PS: Rayael - Todd is right in the fact that you CAN make anything look good :)
Hey Sarah and Louise,
Thanks for the fun comments...tell me what does DH stand for? I figure out the other... can't for the dh. Thanks (I'm still learning)
DEAR HUBBY! So since we're asking questions here... what does WOOT mean?! I've seen the younger crowd using it - is it like "whoo-hoo" or something totally different?
PS: head over to Nelia's blog (via mine) and leave some Nanoose memories everyone :)
Woot? Can you use that in a sentence please? : )
Oh I love the attention that this little hoodie has received!!! You know I've loved it from the beginning!!
As for "woot woot!", here's a definition from urbandictionary.com:
"An expression one may utter in complete approval or joy.
"Woot Woot!" I said in agreement."
Okay...really need to stop my paper procrastinating...happy new hoodie Rayael!
Thanks Elise :)
Elise!!! Good to see you! Please start a blog so I can be up on your life too!!!!!
Sarah
ps..... Reba's coming to Merritt this year!! Just waiting to see if my dh will get me tickets for V-tine's!!!! WOOT WOOT! That's something that makes me happy!!!

Hi there, you don't know me, but I am Louise's sister-in-law. We were checking out your blog and discussing this issue, and I just felt moved to let you know that I think that not only is it a fantastic hoodie,but you seem to be quite sparkly in it!(I am a bit of a fan of LuLu) and thanks to you, I think I may get one. (I figure I'm safe, as we are two provinces apart and don't even know each other!)So thanks for the online shopping!
I just have to support my friend Uri aka Todd. Turn of the century, 1700's. Is your horse and buggy waiting outside? Have no idea how old this post is but just came across it today.
Actualy I liked the hoodie but they did not have it in my size.
See ya.
