Happy New......

Well, clearly this whole holiday seasoj has been super busy, and I have totally let this blog take the back burner! But I have grand plans for the new year, so never fear. 
I am heading out to ring in 2015 in some Antro denim, Daily tank in Flash, Inhabit sweater, Fluff something vest (I wear one of the vests everyday!), Leigh+Luca scarf, and Gentle Soles combat boots. 
I did run into my local store today, and they are still adding to the markdown racks. But nothing for me. I was hoping for some CRBs or inspires. I have sold so many of my tanks and I am in "need" of a couple new colors. I really want Fuel Green! Did that ever come to the U.S. ?

Merry Christmas Eve!

I spent the morning trying to keep my kids from opening all of their presents! We let them open just one this morning and that didn't go over so well. 
I am saving my pennies for December 26th, as I hear from a few sources that the stores have been getting boxes of markdowns!!!! Super exciting. 
Today I am wearing my High Times in Coco Piquè, black Daily Tank, and Free People top. These pants tie with my Herringbone Wills for favorite of the year! 

Saturday, December 13, 2014

Herringboned.

I succumbed to the hype. And these Skinny Wills are a-maz-ing! I tried on nearly every textured pant that they had today. I wanted to like the new striped High Times, but in person I think they like like long johns. And the WUP in the new Ghost Herringbone has such noticeable seaming! Why can't they pick a more subtle color!? 
Wearing Toms, Black Swan CRB, and Free People top.

Brrrrrrrrr!

I'm wearing layers! Ok, it's not that cold. But cold for where I live. Crb under a Fatigue Flip your Dog, Fluffed up Vest, and High Times Coco Piquè. And my trusty Uggs! It's their 9th year, as still going strong. 
I am really really wanting to get another pair of High Times. Maybe Herringbone. They are so awesome!

Let's Get High

I picked up the High Times pants in Coco Piqué this last week, and this is day 3 of my obsession. Love. Love the length, love the texture (cozy, not hot), and love the rise! If you are like me in wishing that the Will/Wunder pants were a little shorter, these are for you. I am 5-8, and I'm not a fan of lots of extra fabric at my ankles. 
Hope you are all having fun this weekend!

Favorite Color of 2014?

I love Cadet Blue. I have a handful of items in this color, and they go with everything! If I were to rename it, it would be called Slim Whale. Or Dreamboy Blue. 
Anyway. Also wearing another non-bright item, my Mueted Mauve Crb. It was one of my first Lululemon purchases, and it's the softest tank I own! 
I went to my local store's Black Friday, and I was not wowed. Just another rack of Astro pants!?!? But I went in today to pick up some pants I had hemmed, and scored two 105 Singlets for $19 each! They also had the merino leg warmers for $29, but I didn't want to have sweaty calves for fashion's sake. It's Southern California, and I overheat wearing my Ugg slippers.

I am a Brat.

Ok, I was head to toe Lulu today. Skinny Grooves, Crb under a Heart Opener Tank, and my new Fluffed Vest. And neon birks!! 
FYI I bought the Straight Up pants over the weekend, and it is taking all of my will power not to rip the tags off NOW! They are wonderful! Flattering back seam of the Grooves, slightly less skinny leg than Wills, and thin and high waistband. Try them on!!

Tuesday, November 11, 2014

More Vest! That's what you guys wanted, right?

Ok. Cannot get enough of this vest. Wore it over a Black Swan CRB, Gap tank, with Skinny Wills in Bordeaux. 
Shout out to Mer, the mega speedster! She's kind of amazing. 

Monday, November 10, 2014

In-vested.

I ripped the tags off of this one today! It was overcast and a teeny bit chilly, so I "needed" to. Layered it over a crb, Splendid Henley, and some Anthro Pilcro cropped jeans. Love love love.

RUN for this Vest!

I was on the hunt for the perfect vest. I needed thin and warm, with some stretch for a good and slim fit. I tried on every Patagonia vest yesterday. And while some folks may find a good one for them, I struck out. Too tight, too loose, no give, ect. 
Then, I went into Lolé today. Again, no winners! Although I do want to go back to try some of their knitwear on. The colors were so pretty! I have no idea how their pants fit, but it's worth a shot. 
Lastly, I went to Lulu. The new Fluffed Up vests were in, and I tried one on. I am in love. Perfect! Just enough give, slim and flattering lines, simple and NO color blocking! I have the Deep Zin Fluff something vest from last year, and the accent colors kinda bug me. Same thing with the Rebel Runner. 
In conclusion, if you are looking for the Unicorn vest of your life, I just found it. 
Also, I got black. The Boom Juice is beautiful, but one at the store already had some stains showing. So I opted for practical for once in my life!

Zebra Legs

Today I busted out my Parallel stripe Runday crops and (finally!) my Magenta Scoopneck Swiftly! I've been holding onto that Swiftly for months. I just love a really saturated pink. It pairs almost too well with my Nike Pegasus. I'm not a fan of the matchy matchy, but oh well. 
I went into the store this week, but didn't try anything on. I don't "need" anything, and after taking a month off from shopping, I'm feeling very happy with what I have. I also gave a few things away, which felt awesome. I'd encourage you all to make a pile of non-precious items and find new homes for them. Share the love!

Will I Dress Up?

So, I got this awesome new top from my mom for my birthday, and I love it with my Bordeaux Will pants! It's still pretty warm here in SoCal, so fall colors are welcome, but it's still totally tank top weather. Also have some Frye flats that I practically stole from 6pm. That website is dangerous.

Where did we go?

So sorry for falling off the face of the blogosphere. I was traveling and camping and living it up! And now I'm back home, ready to face Monday with a grim determination. I got these WAFS Inspires a few weeks ago, and I love love love them! The Violet swooshes are so bright and pretty. I layered a crb under a Gap burnout tank. I love the look of burnout material, but I hate how clingy it gets after you wash it. Good thing this one was about $8. 
Hope you all are having a wonderful Monday. I started mine with coffee and green juice. Consider me jump started!!

Nathan for You!

A lovely reader had commented a while back that I should try the Nathan Sport Wash Detergent. It's pricey, around $20 a bottle, but my clothes have started to really reek. I mean, really. My husband said "Wow, your workout stuff really smells! Wait, have those already been washed!?". Yes. They had. Today he went to REI and picked some of this magical solution for his stinky wife. And I am floored! Particularly, my Black Swan Crb has been smelly for months. And after one wash, it's
fresh and clean!! Hope this helps other sweaty ladies out there. This stuff is for reals.

Monday, October 6, 2014

P.S.

This was my outfit today. Billabong tank over a WAFS CRB, and Skinny Groove crops. And juice that I made!! I just did a 3 day cleanse thru the Juice Ranch and it left me feeling so great that I've started juicing more often. Today I did beets, carrots, ginger, fennel, lime, mint, apple, and celery. YUM. 

Darn it.

Man, lucky ducks down under! Australia got their upload of Seawheeze merch and it's pretty glorious. I am kinda obsessed with the Seawheeze Multi, as seen in this Lighten Up Singlet. 
BUT I am not buying anything this month. Yes, I'm talking to you, Free To Be Wild.

A Month to be Thankful.

Hold on, I know it's not November yet! But I'm taking the month of October off from buying anything. I'm going thru my house and making piles of things to give away, sell, or donate. 
Sorry for the lack of new pics this week, but it's been so glorious at the beach that we've been here nearly everyday! 

Thursday, September 25, 2014

Ok, I will.

I picked up the Skinny Wills in Bordeaux yesterday and I love them! I can see myself wearing these a ton in the next season. I love this color, as it's so saturated, yet not black. It goes with nearly everything. So if you're hankering for some new fall pants and love French wine, then these are the ones for you! 
Also wearing Bordeaux Tonka stripe crb from a few years ago, and a Gap burnout tank. 
I had to also show how cute my Birks looked with my new pants.

Fatigued.

I am wiped out. This week of heat and wind and lots of sweaty hikes and workouts has me aching to lay down and watch Pretty Little Liars! 
Today I wore my new Billabong tank that I'm kinda obsessed with. I wore my Bordeaux Power Y underneath, and WAFS Fatigue crops. I also picked up this headband last week when Mer and I went to Lulu together (sniff). I miss her so much already!
Also, you all are cracking me up with the comments on our Double Unders question! I think maybe when reselling your Lulu you should say "no pets, no smoking, but I always go commando!".

Do You Double Under (s)???

So whilst Mer was visiting us in Cali last week a VERY heated debate broke out. We involved out sisters and cousins in it, and it nearly tore the family apart. 
The question:
Do you wear underwear with shorts that have a built-in liner??
It was split down the middle, with Mer and her posse declaring us INSaINE for free-balling it up, while we were shocked that they would Double Under it!!! 

So, where do you stand on this important issue?? 
Also, here is my outfit from yesterday. I have a Splits59 tank and my Cadet Studios on. Not loving how the Splits59 Ashby tank is so so thin and clingy. I don't think you should be able to tell if I ate a burrito or not.  But I'm just tellin' it like is it.

Heart Open, er.....

I wore jeans today too!! AG ballad, my fav. On top I layered my Daily and Heart Opener tanks. I love that these work with a regular bra, as I haven't found a good non- sport racerback bra. I have one by Josie, but after an hour it makes my shoulders hurt. 
I have 2 of the Daily tanks, and I wish they'd bring this style back! 
P S. I took these pics with my ipad. So that's why my arm is missing!

Bee Camouflaged.

Here is Bee doing a mid run stretch in her Camo WUP! She is a mega-fan of the camo. I mean, I think she might have more than a dozen camo pieces! It's kinda her thing. 
She's also wearing a stripey black and grey CRB. I'm blanking on the exact name. But it's a good one to pair with this print. 
One day I want her to do a camo fashion shoot for us! G. I. Jane for days.

Pregnancy in Lulu Style

My dear friend is expecting her third babe, and she is living in her lulu! She's wearing her Bliss Tank and Diamod Dot WUP in this picture. This tank is a super one for pregnancy, and you can find them on the eBay for very good prices. 
Have you guys loved your lulu during pregnancy? After month 6 when I split my maternity jeans wide open (I cried) it was all comfy, all the time. 

Tuesday, August 26, 2014

Upload thought.

I ordered the Skinny Grooves in the inkwell denim today, as they hopefully are gonna be AWESOME! I love the cut of that style. 
I was super happy to see a picture of a healthy girl modeling the Chilly Chill vest! Good job, Lulu. Now let's see some bigger boobs smashed in those sports bras. 

POW!

I wore a super bright outfit to Krav Maga this morning! WAFS Inspires, Beachscape CRB, and pink Nike Pegasus. It sure made me happy!! 
I love all of the WAFS Inspires so much. They are my favorite crop to sweat in, and I am kicking myself for not buying the Plum and Black.

A Splash of Flash.

I just got this Daily Tank in Flash on eBay, and I'm wearing it under my Fatigue Flip your Dog LS. Also some AG Ballad jeans.
 
I found this pic on Instagram and the girl on the right is wearing my Sea Wheeze dream outfit!!!!! Love love love. And if this girl ever sees this blog post and she's tired of that outfit PLEASE email me!!

Wishing for Wheeze....

I am drooling over all of the awesome Sea Wheeze merch!! Especially the headband and tank in the rainbow swirl. I want!! Maybe one day Mer will run it and I can cheer her on!! That would be epic. 
Today I wore my Chaser burnout tank and black Skinny Grooves. My dream pant for this fall would be Bordeaux denim Skinny Groove pants. Wouldn't those be amazing!?
Have fun, all of y'all in Vancouver.  Watch out for nipple chafing.

Shopping!

I was at Anthropologie and snapped a picture of myself in one of their beautiful mirrors.  I love that place. I wore my Daily Tank under an indigo dyed Gap tank, some AG jeans, and the same Frye boots that G was wearing in her pictures! I have them too. 
I wanted to do a post about my latest Lilu purchases, and how I liked them. So I'm going to be working on compiling a little list for you all. I've been selling a lot, so I've also spent a good little chunk. I didn't order anything today, tho I'm intrigued by the fabric of the new Skinny Will pants.

G rated.

This is our beloved G, and she is wearing
her lulu for date night! She chose her Pacesetter skirt in Lilac, black CRB, Vinyasa scarf in Rugged Blue (?) and some Frye boots. I love seeing what she has in her lulu collection, as her style and pallet are so uniquely "G".

Groovy Day.

I bought another pair of Skinny Groove pants, and I decided to leave them long. For now. I love how these pants give my calves a little room to move! They also stay in place when you're doing leg lifts and such. I get annoyed at the Groove pants for being rather bully when I'm in class. 
I also wore my Pink and Purple stripe CRB (cannot remember the name!) under a Chaser burn out tank. 
I ordered the new quilted Bang Buster last night! I always sell headbands that I don't wear, and I always make every penny back, if not more. It's a fun and cheap way to kinda have a new hair do!

Tuesday, day of the Bruised Berry.

Ok, last time I wear these crops for a while!! I also wore my white CRB and Velvet tank, with my Anthro cargo jacket. I am loving the pictures of the new fall colors and styles coming out, but it's hard to imagine spending my hard earned dollars on them, as it's still summer here!! I already have the new magenta LS Swifly sitting in my closet, just waiting to be loved!!!!

Viva la Fiesta!

It's been Fiesta weekend around here, and there is confetti everywhere!!! Seriously. It never ends. I didn't know about smashing eggs full of confetti onto people's heads until I moved out to SoCal, and it's pretty awesome. I hope it's ok to ingest, as there were a few pieces in my beer. 
I have been really liking my new Bruised Berry Seamlessly Street crops. The color saturation level is perfect! Any lighter and they would be very flaw magnifying, and darker would be less of a color impact. Hope you are all having a fun weekend! I have been watching with fright as people are spending $450+ on the Wonderlust special edition pants. Wow. Just, wow.

Ebb and Flaws

I never liked the Ebb and Flow crops, as they are to the knee and that doesn't look right on me. So, I tried on the Seemlessly Street (?) crops in Bruised Berry and I was blinded by the beautiful color! I love how high the waist comes, I am just nervous about snagging them. I will try them for bootcamp and see how the sweat wicking compares to luxtreme. But this deep purple blue color is just so pretty that I'm nearly certain they're keepers. 


Tuesday, July 22, 2014

Hiking Time!!

We went on a beautiful hike today, and I snapped a picture of my lovely friend in her pretty shorts! These are the Run Roll down short in Mirage print. We had so much fun chasing after our children, and here's hoping no one gets poisen oak!!

Mom on a Mission.

I took this picture of my sister as she was on her way to lay down the law. She's wearing black running crops (pace?), and the Waterbound Hoody! We love this hoody. She has 2, and my mom and I both have one. It's so awesome to layer on a hot day when you don't want to burn to a crisp. And I find that sweat wicking clothing is essential for being a happy women. I sweat. A lot. And keeping that moisture at bay helps me feel a let less stressed. 
P. S. I usually use Burt's Bees spray deodorant, but I just replaced it with Weleda's Rose spray deo. Do you guys use any other awesome brands of natural deodorant??

6 miles of fun/Wee are from Space Comparison

I went on a bike ride this morning with my kids, and it was super fun! Little boys are so happy on bikes, in the dirt, and chasing lizards. And I'm happy doing that too! 
I wore my Beachscape Groovy shorts and Cadet Swifty tank. Perfecto for bike rides! 
Oh! And I picked up the new Magenta WAFS Crb today!! Here it is compaired to Wee Are From Space March from 2 years ago. I bought a size 8 today, but now I'm wishing I had tried on the 10. Pretty much 100% that this is my favorite item of all TIME. Maybe I need both sizes?? INSaINE??

Wake up feeling Refreshed.

I ripped the tags off of my Refresher Racerback dress today! I am not quite in a place to wear it solo, but I love it with a tank layered on top. This is a $2 gap tank that I printed on, and I'm wearing my Latigo sandals from 6pm.com. I think this dress is super comfortable, and it really steps up your outfit from boring legging. Have your local stores gotten this in? 

Wednesday, July 9, 2014

Bee Wild!

My sis is obsessed with the Free to be Wild bras! She wears one daily. Today she wore it under her Water Bound Singlet. This bra is so pretty, and such a good one for wearing under a looser tank. 
What is your favorite Lulu bra? I love the Energy bra, but it doesn't have quite enough support for me for running. I still haven't found my unicorn bra. The one that holds me in, separates, AND looks pretty.

Ziggy in July

I have been sooooo lazy with my outfits these days!! But I did manage to take this one of my Ziggy WUC and a couple of layered cotton tanks. I love this pink and purple combo. It reminds me of when I was little and those were the only colors I would wear. I saw a couple of sneak peaks of a Magenta WAFS fabric coming up. I am very excited about that! Hope you all had a super Independence Day. I am wiped out and heading to bed. Yes, it's 8 pm.

Mama a Go-Go

I snapped this picture of my mom today, and she looked very hip. Go-Go crops, WAFS CRB, Festival bag in Sizzle, and Beach Runner jacket. Head to toe Lulu! Can you tell we've brainwashed her?? 
It looks awesome on her, and she was mistaken for her husband's daughter today! That's got to feel good. I am going to be teasing my dad about Father/Daughter dances for a while.
