Setting the Mood: Sweat This.

By Kirsten|February 3rd, 2014|Setting the Mood|

They say summer bodies are made in the winter. I can’t help but agree as I sweat myself silly at the gym. There’s nothing more annoying to us gym rats than the people who show up in mid-May in sheer panic knowing that Memorial Day is right around the corner and they will be forced to slip into something more skimpy. They’re kind of like the people who show up to the gym on January 2nd and last about a month. I’m actually willing to wager they might be the same crowd. You know the hardest part about going to the gym? Actually going. The second hardest part is figuring out how to look good without being the girl who looks like she got “ready” to go to the gym and walks on a treadmill texting with a full face of makeup and a fresh blowout (please don’t be that girl). While I usually attempt to look totally unapproachable because there’s nothing I hate more than being hit on mid stride, it is entirely possible to look totally stylish while you sweat.

Why Did You Wear That: Work It, Girl.

By Kirsten|March 19th, 2013|Why Did You Wear That?|

Despite the clumps of half melted snow on the sidewalk and being pelted by sleety raindrops the moment you step foot outside your door, “spring” is only a day away. Typically, this would signal oncoming warm weather and the switch from snow boots to skimmers. However, by the looks of things, we’ve got a little while longer to spend in the gym sweating to the oldies before shedding the layers and revealing our soft summer skin. (Punksatony, we’re reviewing your contract right now). So instead of drowning our sorrows in baked mac n’ cheese, let’s take advantage of the opportunity to shed a couple of those extra LB’s we packed on during winter hibernation because those are not the “lumps” they were talking about when they said lovely lady lumps.

While I do have a very difficult time spending ninety dollars on a pair of pants I’m simply going to sweat in, you also don’t have to look like a tool on the treadmill, you should get the best SoleHeaven trainers to have style when working out. Fortunately, workout wear has taken a turn towards stylish and now we can find great options by just visiting websites like https://www.ryderwear.com/collections/womens-sports-bras. Take a cue from these on trend gym approved styles and feel the burn. Just remember, your workout clothes are not street clothes. Lulu leggings are still leggings, so please don’t sit down at brunch post downward dog next to me. I don’t want cameltoe with my croissant.

Bring Your Bra-llet

I have recently become obsessed with running/biking/skating at Hudson River Park. I’m lucky enough to live a hop, skip, and jump away and have been taking full advantage (and my butt thanks me for it).

Not that I need to bring a full purse worth of items with me on my athletic endeavors, but it sure would be nice to have somewhere else to shove my keys besides inside my sports bra. I mean, there really is nothing sexier than pulling out a sweaty clump of dollar bills when trying to pay for a post run smoothie. Ask the girls at Scores.

Enter the RackTrap.

The RackTrap is a safe haven for all items necessary when leaving your abode (ID, cash, keys). It fits comfortably in any size or style of bra and is totally washable and “undetectable” (until you have to reach down your shirt to pull it out). They also now have a special one just for us active ladies (which is allegedly sweatproof).

Well, thank goodness! Now I can run in peace!
