Lucky in Love at the US Pickleball Open
Posted on May 19, 2022 by Ching under Outfits, Pickleball.
Earlier this year I got accepted into the Lucky in Love brand ambassador program. I’ve known about the program for some time because I am a huge fan of their clothes. I have spent probably thousands on countless Lucky in Love outfits. They really do make excellent quality clothes that hold up well.
Anyway, they mostly outfit tennis players — in fact, the application asks for your current ranking — so I had never bothered to apply before. However, earlier this year, I thought, “Why the heck not? The worst thing they can do is say no.” So I answered all of the questions and, for current rank, I just put “NA, I play pickleball” instead. I clicked the Enter button and sent my application into the void.
A few days later (this was around February), I received a message via Instagram asking for my address and my sizes because they were going to send me a couple of outfits from their new collection. This was the best news I had gotten in a really long time and I was super excited.
It wasn’t long after that when I received my first box…
They sent me the cutest pieces from the “Playing in Paradise” collection.
Here’s a link to the blue cami top and here’s a link to the red ribbed henley tank.
They also sent me a couple of matching skirts: the playing in paradise skirt (which is super cute, with its pleated tiers and colorful print, and is my absolute favorite because it’s so much fun to wear) and the blue and white versa high low tennis skirt. Since all four pieces are from the same line, they all mix-and-match and coordinate really well.
Right before the US Open, they sent me another box of stuff along with the note below. I was going to be at the open for seven days and now had enough Lucky in Love outfits for every single day I’m there.
I kind of had to mix and match pieces in order to stretch all of the outfits but I made it work. I wore Lucky in Love every single day that I was at the open except for on Friday when I wore Chicken N Pickle gear.
Since I am also part of the Chicken N Pickle “sponsored athlete” program I have to give them some love as well. Above is a picture of me with Chicken N Pickle and Electrum Pickleball pro Patrick Smith, who is one of my most favorite pickleball players of all time. He is outfitted by Neptune Athletics.
Here’s a picture of me and my women’s doubles partner Erica Lopez in our matching animal instinct skirts.
Here’s a picture of me wearing my stuff from the “Playing in Paradise” collection with ChiChi (middle) and Marina (right), taken at the Lucky in Love booth in the Vendor Village at the US Open.
I stopped by the Lucky in Love booth each day to show them that I really did bring and wear all the stuff they sent me. In the picture below, I paired the animal instinct tank with my black Lululemon hotty hot shorts because Erica and I had already planned to wear our matching animal instinct skirts on another day.
I got this visor for free when I bought something at the booth and I absolutely love it. Not only does it go with everything but the message printed on it is one that is positive and a great reminder for us all.
On another day, I wore my Lucky in Love animal instinct bralette tank with my spark ruche skirt which has a subtle shimmer. I just love it! Marina is wearing the exact same skirt in this photo.
This next photo was taken that same day. The two handsome men in the picture with me are the Dawson father-and-son duo: Callan (left) and Steve (right). Mom, Jennifer Dawson (not pictured), is also an amazing pickleball player. This picture was taken either right before or right after one of their men’s doubles pro split age matches on championship court. I am such a fan girl! LOL.
Here’s me and ChiChi with outfits from the “Playing in Paradise” collection. Here’s a link to the tank that she’s wearing. I already linked to the blue cami top above but, just in case you missed it, I just linked to it again.
Anyway, these clothes are so fun, comfortable, and easy to wear. They are great quality and perfect for wearing on and off the court. I am so grateful to be part of the #theluckyfam. If you love their clothes just as much as I do, you can be part of the family too. Lucky in Love was nice enough to set up a special discount code for the Wichita Pickleball crew.

Remember to let me know what you bought in the comments (perhaps I already have it or, if not, I can get it also) so we can be matchy-matchy!
