Into The Mind: Athlesiure

Hi Friends!

I've been on a wellness/fitness high since the fall after participating in Geek Girl Girl Strong Power Program (more on that later this week)! During this "high" I have a new love for.... ATHLESIURE 

The trend  earned an inclusion in the Webster dictionary: Athleisure refers to casual clothing — like yoga pants, sweat pants, and hoodies — that are designed to be worn both for exercising and for doing (almost) everything else.  When a trend makes into the dictionary it's a LIFESTYLE! #bloop

It makes sense as most of us are investing in wellness posting pics on social media of our fitness progress, kale shakes, and avocado toasts.  

A few of my favs at the moment are below!  The Koral leggings as an FYI are AMAZING they have made my workouts so much better! 

From mixing workout leggings with boots and a poncho it’s now totally acceptable to take your workout look from the gym to the streets.  About time, I'm all for it! It forces designers to use materials that are comfortable for a change!

This week, posts will be focused on self care, fitness and wellness.  Times like these we need it :)

Into The Mind: Leather & Lace

Happy June people! We are halfway into the year and 3 weeks into summer. I can't wait to bake on the beach, catch a free film at Bryant Park, and run through the sprinklers with my niece's and nephew's! 

So why am I in a leather and lace mood then? The materials do scream fall and winter for many but not me! I guess one reason is because I have been listening to Stevie Nicks' Bella Donna album a lot. She's so rad, my favorite song from the album Leather and Lace. The lyrics are raw, the melody so simple, they don't make songs much less love songs like that anymore, what a shame!

My latest "Into The Mind" set has me in a leather and lace mood for work. I have been running around like Olivia Pope lately for work and want to upgrade my work attire yet be whimsical at the same time hence the Nike's and silk comic tee.  Breaking up the black and white with gold jewelry has always been a personal fav to keep the outfit feminine and warm. 

While I am working on a new work wardrobe update, what are you guys getting into at the start of June? Do tell!
