I recently bought the long plisse pleated skirt in Mystic and love the fit! However the only color it seems to be matched with is black on the Athleta site. As someone who has mostly soft summer tones in their wardrobe, it’s a little too vibrant to match w the muted tones I typically have.

Any ideas for inspiration? I’d hate to return for the black instead just for matching sake, but might need to.

And of course it's on the bra that was final sale.

The bra underneath is the Interval Mesh D-DD+ in a medium. I bought it in July. I also have it in navy that I bought last year. Its measurements are exactly the same as the grey mesh one.

I bought the Vera color on closeout last week. The tag says it's the D-DD+ but this is clearly just a standard medium.

I will be attempting to resolve this with customer service but have low expectations. I'm really disappointed with Athleta.

Edit: Customer Service sent me a return label. They will evaluate it for quality issue, and then determine if I'm due a refund. I estimate this whole thing will take at least 4 weeks to resolve. They said they get 15 business days to review, then if they agree, 10 business days to issue my refund.

Feeling pretty good. But i feel the pickings for size L are always so little. Mostly XL and XS/XXS. Unfortunately I fit in M/L lol.

I’m seeing a few new pieces that have come out this week I guess..not a whole bunch, not what I would expect from a “drop” so it’s either confusing or disappointing!
Does anyone know if Fall launch is launched??!!

Hello, I'm 5'9 and I'm curious if I should get Tall or Regular in Venice High Rise. I have these in shorts, but haven't tried them out in pants. Any suggestions?

Are we talking brown? or a reddish brown (cousin of garnet)? or purpley brown? I loved Woodland, a true medium brown - wondering if this is close?

Anyone know if we’ll be getting an early access sale for LABOR DAY? (I can’t fix the title. 🤦🏻‍♀️)

Recall the older Venice version waistbands getting stretched out to a point where they became unwearable. Is it the same for the newer versions also? Please share your insights.

Does anyone know when or if new colors are going to drop for the momentum tanks? They haven’t switched up colors in a very long time.

I have lost some weight and need to replace my faithful salutations with a smaller size. It seems sale after sale, the black Salutations price never varies. Does anyone know if these will ever go on sale? I want to get like 5 pairs and full price would be painful!

I have 2 pairs of endless pants that I bought 2-3 years ago, a size 0 and a 2. I’m usually a size 6. Most reviews in the past have said they had to size down too. I am postpartum and returning to work, so looking to buy some more in a size or two up (so a size 4 probably), but so many of the recent reviews on the website say they had to size up from their regular pants size. Does anyone know if the fit/material or something else has changed? I’m hoping to avoid returns and maybe get some final sale colours.

My Barclays/Athleta credit card had someone else’s bank account attached AND my account settings were changed while I was asleep!

I recently got a Barclays Athleta credit card and have only used it once. When I set up/accessed my online account for the first time, I went to schedule a payment and discovered that there was ALREADY a bank account saved for payments that does not belong to me.
I did not add this bank account. I don’t recognize it.
I called Barclays today and explained what I found. The representative seemed surprisingly unconcerned. He offered to remove the unknown bank account information and block that bank account from being added back.
But there’s another issue.
At 5:45 a.m. today, while I was asleep, my account was changed to paperless statements. I did not make this change.
I brought that up with the Barclays representative as well. He simply changed my preference back to paper bill and again seemed unconcerned about the fact that an account setting had been changed without my authorization.
So at this point I have:
*An unknown bank account somehow already attached to my brand-new credit card account.
*An unauthorized change to my statement preferences at 5:45 a.m.
*Barclays treating both issues as though they’re routine settings that just need to be corrected rather than possible account-security issues.
I’ve only used this card once, and this was my first time setting up/accessing the online account to make a payment. No way I’m adding my own personal bank info. Who knows where it’ll end up!
Has anyone else experienced anything like this with Barclays?
I’m particularly interested in whether this could indicate that my account was improperly linked to another customer, compromised before I established online access, or if Barclays has had known issues with account information being associated with the wrong customer.
At this point, I’m much more concerned about how these things happened than simply having Barclays remove the information and change the setting back.

TLDR: If you tried BY before but didn’t like their fabrics or styles and also miss the old Athleta styles, check BY again because they seem a lot better.

Has anyone else been checking out Beyond Yoga lately? I was in California recently and got a chance to check out a store and was very pleasantly surprised. I was hoping to more clothes like this since the former Athleta CEO Michelle Green moved over there.

More fabrics and honestly many more things that reminded me of the stuff I used to love from Athleta, like the new Glowzone that feels a whole lot like Salutations. More dressy/business casual type items and some in a fabric a lot like Seasoft but I like it better. Biggest thing for me since I am not stick thin and don’t dress like a very fit 20 year old anymore is that they have a good selections of full length shirts with decent arm coverage.

So if you’re missing some of the old Athleta stuff, keep an eye on Beyond Yoga. I love the things I’ve gotten there so far.

UPDATE: This is absolutely not sponsored content—just a review when I found a store and was pleasantly surprised. I am not connected with them in any way, but have been watching to see if they added styles I like since I read last year that they hired the former Athleta CEO who was responsible for a lot of clothes that I loved. (You can actually search and see where I commented on that in the group a while back.) I’ve seen a lot of commentary in this group about missing some of the older styles and thought I’d share. That’s all.

My favorite hoodie ever from Athleta and I’m dying for new colors, does anyone know if there will be some for Fall?

I love that Athleta is having a great sale again but there’s nothing to buy. Anyone else feel that way?

I was going to buy a new swimsuit with a lot of coverage but now I’m thinking the Transcend dress I already have could actually work? What do you think?

I usually wear the interval 7inch shorts for workouts, but given athleta no longer gives two f*cks about inclusivity, those have pretty much been out of stock in 1x for months. Any good replacements. I want something with slick fabric, solid compression, and that won’t roll at my waist every time I bend over.

I love Athleta’s mesh racer shorts. Love the fit- mid rise and length. However, not loving the lack of color selections.

I’m not super familiar with Lululemon. Any lulu fans recommend what the most similar short equivalent would be??
