Good Workout Gear is as Important as the Workout Itself!

[Part of my workout uniform features these RBX Active Military Green Patterned Capri Legging, C9 by Champion Tank, Athleta Braided Headband, FitBit Flex, Happy Plugs Camo Earbuds, & dumbells]

 More than anything lately, and I mean anything,  I’ve been wanting to spend time working out. And for the most part I have, but before you think I’ve been sweating it out hardcore, for the record, I’ve been doing it “my way,” which means heavy on the Pilates, yoga, and meditation, light to non-existent on the cardio. When I am in the gym, opposed to in the studio taking a class via my FitReserve membership, I move at a quicker pace, however, irregardless of the activity, I need to be comfortable, stylish, and up for anything. I recently tested the Digital Camo Legging by RBX Active, which was a revelation thanks to its ease of movement and super duper affordable price ($29.99).

The pants are super lightweight and the ultimate in stretch, thanks to the four-way stretch design, lay flush against the body due to the flat lock seaming, and the combo of fibers and finish wick moisture away from the body so that nothing detracts from your workout.  The leggings are high performance, so that you can be too, and as we all know, I’m a sucker for a cool camo print! As sleek as the design is, there is a tiny, concealed pocket that I actually didn’t even notice until after a few wears that it rests on the hip and is perfect for stashing some cash or keys if you don’t have a locker to leave your belongings in.

Overall, I’ve got to say I’m very impressed with all of the functional and stylish features for the price; so much so, that I think  you should get a pair too! Receive 25% off at RBXActive.com, now through July 31st, 2015 via code “Active25,” plus free shipping on orders that tally to $50 or more.  My particular style is available in four color options, but you can also choose from compression shorts, running shorts, bras, tops, and more, or look for RBX Active and sporting goods and fashion retailers nationwide.

Sunday in the Park

by

julia dinardo fashion pulse daily -2

In all my years of living in NYC (15!) I really haven’t spent any time in Prospect Park in Brooklyn. I’ve done things on the periphery of it, like go to the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and Brooklyn Museum of Art, but somehow hadn’t managed to spend any time in it until my best friend came a few weeks ago to run the Brooklyn half marathon, which goes right through the body of the park. This weekend, Fashion Pulse hubby and I returned for a leisurely stroll, and appreciated the size of it, both large and intimate, and the slight familiarity; it was designed by the same landscape architects that did Central Park, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux.

We took pause by the baseball fields and took these photos near there, listening to the chants and occasional crack of the bat making contact with the ball sound. The special part of this look is that that I’m wearing shoes that I had worn to my rehearsal dinner; who says you can’t wear wedding-related garments and accessories again?

The Cambridge Satchel Company x Vivienne Westwood Collection – Coming This July!

by

VW x CSC

Once again, The Cambridge Satchel Company and Vivienne Westwood have teamed up to bring a trio limited edition of bags, available for the fall/winter season starting July 7th, 2015. The three styles, “the tiny” ($180 ), “the  classic 14”” satchel ($335 ), and “the music bag” ($380), are unisex and feature a design inspired by Westwood’s iconic boots from her 1981 “Pirate” collection. To make the bags’ story even more unique, the squiggle print found on them (screen printed directly on to the leather) was done by the same British printer who has been producing Westwood’s Pirate Boots for over 30 years.

If you’re not familiar with the brand The Cambridge Satchel Company, it started in 2008 by a mom and daughter duo, with bags that are handmade in the UK and feature the finest materials and craftsmanship. Vivienne Westwood as a woman and a brand has forged a distinct, thought-provoking career in fashion that has spanned five decades and today is a recognized and independent global brand.

If you love these bags as much as I do, you may want to pick one up at its select retailers: exclusively at Vivienne Westwood standalone boutiques, The Cambridge Satchel Company stores, and online at www.CambridgeSatchel.com.
