Keeping Cool

What can I say, I'm a gym fashion guru!
Call me vain, but part of the reason I got so into working out was with the help with some hip hugging, booty lifting Lulu's!

I started out with their Groove's:

Then quickly realized these are best for the gym, not for Pilates as they would catch on the reformer.
So, I made my way to these lovelies:
Honestly, I only wear these now, I've officially given away four other pairs of Lulu Lemon Grooves and am sticking to these!
Bonus?
You can wear them with boots and sweaters!

My girlfriend ACM, better known as Mac and my other girlfriend SAF talked me into talking a Bikram yoga class the other day.
Part of our "prep" for class was Mac buying us matching water bottles, TWINSIES!
How cute is this? 

Not only is it adorable and my favorite colour, it is:
-BPA, phthlate, PVC and polycarbonate free (not that I know what any of that means but I am assuming this is the way to be! - this to me translates as "No Plastic" which is what I try and live by!)
-Has a wide mouth so you can toss cucumber, lemon, grapefruit wedges in it
-The top is super easy to screw on which is great for quick and on the go, no spills in the tote!
-Has the awesome skin on it to help prevent breakage since after all it is glass!

Since she gave me this awesome bottle, I have been drinking water like it's going to run out!
You can't go wrong with water since it hydrates you from the inside out!
Better skin, detoxifying, helps with metabolism... sign a sister up.
Best of all... IT'S FREE!
(I know, duh... but sometimes we need reminding!)

I'm now in search of the perfect work out tops.
Good for running, strength training and Pilates.

I prefer to wear a sports bra and cotton tank... see some suggestions HERE
This little ensemble is basically my staple uniform from 5PM on at least three times a week:

I love the Champion sports bras at Tarjay but just a heads up to opt for the solid white ones...
I have this adorable one in fuchsia but it ends up bleeding onto my white tanks even after several washes:(
Support-wise it's great, but that's not saying much for my size (double sad face)

Bikini season is right around the corner and life's too short to not be healthy!

Cheers to a healthy lifestyle!

P.S, And of course, yesterdays post was an April Fools joke, I don't think you'd want to see my reaction if that were really true... xo
