Livin’ in Athleisure (with Old Navy!)

Hi Friends! Happy Hump Day 🙂 How are your weeks going? We are heading to our tasting for our wedding tonight and I’m pretty excited to finally focus on some planning…and to eat some yummy food (…as I write about athleisure…)
I wasn’t originally going to write a whole post on this but after some good response and questions from my last IG post, I had to write about one of my latest obsessions – activewear from Old Navy! I have been off work for a few weeks and have been LIVING in these items. Now…if only I can find a way to continue wearing when returning to the office. We do have a gym here so I will be bringing with me for workouts when I can!
My brother in law, who by the way has amazing style, asked me where I got this outfit because it “looked expensive.” SCORE! Jokingly I said, it’s from like Lululemon or something like that…
But really, the pants, bra and shirt are all from Old Navy and I am so impressed by the affordability and quality of these items. Although I do believe that expensive activewear is always worth it, I love that I can get that quality from Old Navy and have even more of a variety.

I love putting on “athleisure” type items on weekends or days when I’m off – they are comfortable/easy to move in and honestly, I’m more likely to workout (either run or do a home workout) when I am already dressed. Sometimes getting ready is the hardest part for me!

Here are the outfit deets–
Go-Dry Ultra-Light Surplice-Back Top : now on sale and available in 5 colors. I am wearing a size Medium in “Prom Queen Neon.”
Go-Dry Strappy Light Support Sports Bra (similar) : now on sale and available in black & floral. I am wearing a size Large. If I were to run or do something more high imptant, I would have to wear a full coverage bra or add another bra. #bigboobprobs this lighter support bra is perfect for true athleisure wear or yoga/barre/pilates type exercises.
High-Rise Go-Dry Compression Capris: now on sale – wearing a Medium in “Black Mini Dot.”

Where do you shop for activewear/athleisure? What am I missing out on? You babes always have the best recos!! Have a fantastic rest of your week, mamas!

Feeling Peachy in Pink Blush {+another giveaway!}

HI BABES – HOW WAS THE WEEKEND?! It’s been a MINUTE since I posted – will share where I have been (& why) later this week<3
You all should know by now that I am a huge PINK BLUSH fan – this is my 3rd time working with them and I could not be more excited!

I received this beautiful peachy/coral off the shoulder shirt earlier this month and fell in love immediately – I love the unique details on the straps and off the shoulder draping. It is an amazing color, flattering, perfect for Spring, and comfortable – what more could a girl want?
Pink Blush is NOT just maternity wear – they carry a full women’s, accessory & shoe line – and every item is adorable! Many of the items in the shop will take you from pre-pregnancy, through pregnancy and post-pregnancy as they are flattering and made for all stages of a women’s life.
I want to gift this shirt or any item you choose this week to one follower – so I teamed up with Pink Blush to give away a $50 gift card! I just announced the giveaway and entry rules on my instagram so head on over to enter! Winner will be choosen on Friday, May 12th.
I hope you have an amazing week – kick some ass & take some names!

PS — Can we please talk about my new Cincinnati photographer Hyun Ah Perez Photography? I posted back in March that I was looking for an awesome new photographer to work with after our move back to OH and in the midst of LIFE I started to fall behind on my posts because I was running low on time to find someone great that would just “get” what I was looking for. Through the fate of the universe Hyan (Hannah) found ME on Facebook and here we are! I highly recommend her services – you will be seeing a lot more of her work in the future on Running with Strollers 🙂

The New Year is for Cashmere! (+ a Pomegranate Inc. discount)

Welcome to 2017, babes! How’s it going? It’s taking me a hot minute to get back into it. After traveling for 2 weeks, coming back to reality and responsibilities is kind of kicking my ass. Going into the first full week of the year, I’m trying really hard to apply the 5 things I wrote about in my last post that can set us up for success in the new year. They really are so simple. My favorite tips are to get moving & finding something inspirational. I am going to work out tonight + have been catching up on my favorite podcasts all day.
 Another thing I did was take 1 extra day off to focus on me and play catch up. I had a dr appt, did some unpacking, caught up on some emails, and did a few other things for the blog. The break was great but one day at home, with Calvin in daycare (which he was SO HAPPY to return to) is just what the doctor and mental health gods ordered. I wrote about my advocacy for personal days here.

In other, fashion related news – I am so excited to share this slate blue, cashmere, Zoe Fringe sweater from Pomegrante Inc – an adorable online boutique out of Lexington, Ky!
I am ALLLL about deals, discounts, and cheap buys – you know this – but have you ever owned and wore a real cashmere sweater? GAME CHANGER. Such high quality, comfort, and a piece you can wear over and over because of…well, the high quality of the material.

This fringe is amazing and it is also available in blush, natural, grey and black (you know how I feel about neutrals) but I decided to mix it up with SLATE BLUE because it looked very “January” to me. In a good way!

The sweater is currently 25% off and with my discount code RUNNINGWITHSTROLLERS – you can get an additional 30% off anything on the site! That’s 55% off all their cashmere sweaters.
Some of my other favorites are…
The Catharine
The Anorak
The Piper
My Shoes – only 24.99!
My Purse – currently available in WINE & TAN

So – now I’m spoiled and cashmere sweaters are one of my go-to’s for the 2017 winter seasons.Seriously, a must have! Us mamas deserve nice thing every once and a while too! What pieces are you loving for January 2017? kaylasignature-06
