Staying active is a way of life for us and it is no secret that we are obsessed with finding stylish new activewear brands to sport during our favorite workouts. We have stumbled upon dozens of brands over the years but one really seems to stand out above the rest to us and that is Alala. We have worn multiple outfits by Alala on the blog and on our Instagram feed (which you have probably seen), not only because they are super fashion forward but also because they actually feel good when you are working out. Since we are able to try out so many different brands, we feel that it is our job to share what works and what isn’t worth your money and let us tell you, Alala is a brand worth investing in Our partnership with Alala has grown over the past few months from styling a few of their outfits to being able to interview the CEO and Founder, Denise Lee.

Instead of making resolutions this year to lose 20 lbs, to give up on chocolate or wine, why not devote more time to simply try to be healthy and stay active? No one is perfect, so why hold yourself to that kind of standard? I have found that if I eat healthy 80% of the time and find a workout program that I actually enjoy, that I am a million times more successful than when I am depriving my body of the food it wants/needs and am doing boring workouts that I hate. Getting in shape isn’t easy and it takes hard work and dedication to get the results that you want but when you find a program that you want to do, you will soon be hooked. It could be a boxing gym, running club, barre studio or Crossfit gym, it really doesn’t matter what kind of workout you […]
