Operation Beautiful Takes Over lululemon

IMG_8110

I remember when Caitlin first started Operation Beautiful. Operation Beautiful’s mission is “transforming the way you see yourself one post-it note at a time.” That mission is in line with lululemon athletica’s manifesto. poster_E_red_2008 lululemon says to live in the moment, because that’s when creativity is maximized. They encourage to do one thing a day that scares you. The manifesto reminds that the world is changing at such a rapid rate that waiting to implement changes will leave you 2 steps behind. DO IT NOW, DO IT NOW, DO IT NOW!

IMG_8111 Some of the wonderful people at the lululemon athletica outlet in Orlando (the store I work at) decided to bring some Operation Beautiful to our store.

The magic starts at the fitting room. There are notes all over the inside and outside of each fitting room!

But there’s only so much we can tell these beautiful men and women, so we encourage them to write their own!

IMG_8097Guests and employees are invited to take a blank note and cover it with their own beautiful message. We were having fun watch the notes appear throughout yesterday afternoon!

I love what we’ve done, but we’re not stopping there. We’re preparing the store’s main window to be covered in encouraging, honest notes. And we’ve done something special with our mannequins- but you’ll have to wait until the window is done to see that ;)

Josh and me

Every day I feel so blessed to work with a company that believes in empowering their employees, customers and community. Keep posted to see where we go with this! And if you live in the area, please come in and join the fun! Check out the notes others have left and contribute your own!

Apparently I’m still forgetful when photographing my food! Taking a trip and just snacking all day threw me off :)

IMG_8089 Still, I did eat a salad with a Dr. Praeger’s burger, a banana (not Eddie’s face) and 1.3 lb.’s of Whole Foods that pretty much disappeared before the camera could say hello.

Have you made an Operation Beautiful note of your own? What would you write to be included in our store window?
