StitchFix as an “Inbetweenie”
I’ve been seeing StitchFix Blog Reviews and Social Media posts forever but I was always so skeptical about it because finding clothes that fit me is stupid hard. I’m in a weird place size wise. I’m not fully “plus size” and I’m not exactly “straight size” either. I’m what has been labeled an “Inbetweenie” in the fashion world. I’m a pretty solid size 14 in pants, which is the largest size StitchFix currently offers. In most tops I’m a large, unless it has no stretch and then I usually size up to XL. When I go clothes shopping I am one of those people who go in with 9823 pieces and…

In the past I’ve gone out on Black Friday and fought my way through the crowds for some crazy deal. But now, ain’t nobody got time for that! I have become a total internet deal stalker. I’m all about the online deals! I’ve found them to be even better deals than you get in store… plus you don’t have to wonder if they will have what you want in stock (for the most part). I’m going to share some of my favorite Cyber Monday deals with you, hopefully you can save a few bucks on things for those on your list or for yourself! Reebok – 40% off Sitewide use…

Fran’s Closet RX Giveaway
It’s no secret that crossfitters love their gear. From nano’s to tanks I am always on the look for the coolest new gear to sport when I’m sweating it out in a WOD. I love all the funny crossfit sayings you see on shirts, but I also love the simple design I came across with Fran’s Closet RX. Their signature line included barbell applique and my favorite, the barbell love shirt! The shirt is the ever popular Next Level Apparel brand with the burnout type design. It fits pretty true to size, I wear a Large. I love that this is a t-shirt you can wear during a WOD or with…

Strong Confident You
I love workout gear. I spend 90% of my time in workout gear. Between working out and coaching classes I’m always in my sweaty clothes. Thing is I still like to feel cute too! I want workout apparel that is fun and functional. When I found the Etsy Shop Strong Confident You I fell in love. They have the awesome burnout tanks that are so comfy, but they also have cute designs! Add a bow, ruffles, or glitter and I’m sold. They were kind enough to send me a shirt to try out. I had my eye on this one: This isn’t Sweat, It’s Sparkle. I couldn’t wait to put it…

Gwynnie Bee: Spring into Style
Supposedly it’s spring. However, the 12 inches of snow outside are telling me otherwise. I even sang christmas carols while grocery shopping yesterday. WHO AM I?! Ok, bringing it back. It is technically spring. Usually that means it is time to spruce up your wardrobe! Some people can just use the same spring time essentials year after year, but If you have been working on losing weight and getting into shape that could pose a problem. Those Spring Time essentials from last year probably (hopefully) don’t fit the same way this year. If you aren’t exactly to your goal weight you don’t want to fork out a ton of money on a…

Gwynnie Bee: New Arrivals
Guys, I’m so excited to share some more awesomeness with you today! Remember Gwynnie Bee? Well, I am still in love with it. Coming from a girl who used to dress in baggy tshirts and frumpy jeans, taking fashion risks wasn’t something I was used to. Before I started my weight loss journey I really didn’t like to try new things when it came to fashion. I knew exactly what would fit me and I would just wear that same thing over and over again. I always admired fun clothes from afar, but I didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin so there was no way I was going to…

Zensah Seamless Power Jacket
A few weeks ago I was sent a Zensah Seamless Power Jacket to try out and review. I was so excited about this opportunity because I already love my Zensah Compression Sleeves and knew the jacket would be great as well. They also have some pretty sleek color combinations. I resisted the normal urge to go all pink and decided to go with the black with pink accents. It is one sexy running jacket. The bubble gum zipper is such a fun pop of color. The top of the zipper has a zipper garage (didn’t know that was the official name for the fabric that keeps the zipper from pinching you… but…

Gwynnie Bee – Clothing Without Commitment
Guys – I’m so excited to share something amazing with you today!! As most of you know my journey to healthy living has been a long one. As long as I can remember I have been always been plus size. After I had my daughter I was in a size 20. Shopping for me was always limited to the sale racks at Old Navy and Target. Finding clothes that made me feel cute and didn’t break the bank was hard to do. As I started to lose weight I got more excited about shopping, only to find the selection didn’t get any better as you moved from 20 to 18……
