Work it - in the Gym!

Happy Weekend Everyone!
Who's up for a little talk about Athletic Gear?
I've yet to write a post on this topic, but I thought "Hey, exercise can be fashionable, and it's on-trend!", so why not write about it!  Recently I've been going to a couple of Barre Intensity classes at a local fitness center in the town I live in.  It's a combination of ballet, pilates, and strength exercises, and it's actually really fun, despite being quite challenging!  I've never been a serious exerciser (other than sports at school and an occasional elliptical machine), but I'm moving out to California in the next month to start college, so I wanted to kick-start a new healthy lifestyle by going to a couple of sessions a week :)

Let's Work Out!

Here I've put together a few different looks for various forms of exercise.  Whenever you're working out, it's important to wear clothes that give you flexibility, as well as breathability.  And, even when you're exercising, it's nice to look put together.  Keeping to a certain color palette with your athletic gear allows you to be comfortable and chic, all while toning your physique!

Q of the Day: What's your favorite form of exercise?

Keep Classy and Chic,

4th of July (and looking fly!)


Happy 4th of July everyone!
It's hotter than blazes here in A2 (97 degrees, people!), so what better way to spend a couple of hours inside an air-conditioned house then to write a blog post :)  The 4th is one of those holidays when you can get away with wearing an outfit completely in red, white, and blue.  Take advantage of this fact, but don't abuse the hues!

4th of July (and looking fly!)
For the Family BBQ, how about a retro look - a pair of loafers, a peter pan collared shirt, and high-waisted blue & white stripped shirts?  At the pool, a red & white stripped bikini paired with a blue fedora and vintage spectacle sunglasses makes for a chic but festive 4th of July outfit.  Top it off with an evening look comprised of a sleek blue pencil skirt, white tank, and a tailored red blazer.

Q of the Day:  What is the one thing you do every 4th of July?

Keep Classy and Chic,
