Fashion Forward Activewear

Fashion Forward Activewear I’ve said it before, but there is nothing more motivating to me than new workout gear – trendy, Fashion Forward Activewear that is. It has been scientifically proven that cute workout gear increases productivity. Actually, I’ve never actually heard of such a case study, but it’s makes sense doesn’t it? It’s pretty safe to say that we have all ran errands in our active wear. Sometimes, well most of the times do we may not even workout that day, whoopsy 😬. Days in which the time slips away is the exact reason why I love running errands in these cheetah print leggings from VIMMIA so much. They are definitely the most fashionable leggings that I own. Simply throw on an oversized sweater and sneakers and you’re good all day, and most importantly… comfortable. Luckily this day was over casted, something you rarely see here in LA. The poor weather motivated me to take care of everything which I needed to do; groceries, post office, pickup puppy treats, and of course, workout. Now that all that is taken care of, when the sun returns I’ll be at the beach. Wearing – Tank (Vimmia); Bra (Amoena); Leggings (Vimmia); Sneakers (Reebok); Sunglasses (J.Martasand) xo Michelle

Sarah is featured wearing Bliss Capri and Ruffle Tank by Vimmia. Photography by Elliott O’Donovan also featured in Northern Virginia Magazine. It has been a little over 6 months since I joined Crossfit South Arlington and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to join. It is challenging, gives me that sense of competition, it works every muscle in my body and the best part is I have been seeing results. I, like many people, was nervous to join at first. I had heard all of the terrible rumors surrounding Crossfit but since joining my gym, I can attest that from my experience, they are all completely FALSE. Common Crossfit Misconceptions 1. Crossfit makes girls bulky: I have heard tons of rumors about this, so much so that I was almost afraid to give Crossfit a try myself. And after Crossfitting for the past 6 months, I think I can attest that this rumor is absolutely not true! You are able to choose your own weights, so if you believe lifting weights will make you larger in a “bad” way then don’t load up your bar. But if you want to build muscle, burn fat, increase your overall strength, and have an all over more toned and […]
