    I dislike how Lululemon tokenizes plus-sized women. The “Further” campaign included one or two plus-sized runners, and last week’s U.S. homepage featured two plus-sized athletes doing yoga. Lululemon has dramatically reduced the number of items it offers in 14+, yet it wishes to portray itself as size-inclusive. Stores don’t even carry anything above a 12.

    I realize these models may have been short, so they could fit into sizes 10-14. But a typical 5’9" model with the same BMI? Absolutely not. If LLL doesn’t want to offer larger sizes, that’s fine. But stop using plus-sized athletes as marketing tools.

    I always hang-dry everything except pajamas, socks, underwear, and lounge clothes I don’t care about. Everything else air dries. My teenagers and husband do the same.

    Set a fan (or two) to blow on the wet clothes. They’ll dry in a jiffy! I have an over-the-door drying rack that is perfect for leggings and lightweight items like swiftlys. I use a more sturdy over-the-door fold-down Yamazaki “coat rack” to hang heavy items like Scubas. I use hangers that don’t leave stretch marks on the shoulders. If an item comes out of the washer wrinkly, I put it in the dryer for three or four minutes with a dryer sheet, then hang it dry. This works great for t-shirts. For those who don’t like the stiffness of air-dried clothes, once your items are dry, air-fluff them in the dryer for just a few minutes.

    Air drying is good for clothing and the environment. North Americans are way too attached to dryers…they are used very sparingly elsewhere. I don’t think I can post links, but I will list below the titles of my favorite items to search on Amazon.
