Have You Joined Fabletics Yet?

One of the main goals of this blog is to show how you can live a fashionable and healthy lifestyle on a budget. It's no secret that I love a good deal, and and hate paying full price for things. So one of my saving graces is Fabletics. I've posted about it before here. I love love love the clothes, and the prices are absolutely amazing. The best part is, there is no commitment. Each month you have the choice of ordering something super cute for a great price, or skipping the month. If you don't make a choice your card gets charged, but you can then use that credit towards a future purchase. 

Finding the motivation to work out can be hard, but for me, if I look cute it's way easier to get myself to the gym. That's why stylish work out clothes are a must-have, and they can't be crazy expensive. Which is why I'm totally obsessed with Fabletics. Plus, everything fits really well, and is great quality.

This is one of my most recent outfits, called Diamond Valley. All three pieces were included, and these are becoming my absolute favorite pants to sweat in. I tend to stick to black and gray, so the cutouts add a fun accent. So cute!

I Finally Tried Pure Barre...And LOVED It!

But also kind of hated it. But mostly loved it. Ask me again tomorrow when I can't walk....

I've been dying to try Pure Barre for the longest time. I'm not really sure why I haven't up until now, but I am sure glad I finally bit the bullet! It helped that a couple of my girlfriends were game for checking it out with me. 

I just want to say, that this workout is not easy. I know a lot of people seem to think it is for some crazy reason. Those people have obviously never been to a Pure Barre class. It will kick your booty! In the very best way of course. I have a gym membership, but it's easy to get in a rut. I sometimes get bored with the same old routine, so this was a great way to change it up. Even though I probably looked like a fool, my abs were on fire,and my legs were shaking like crazy, I can't wait to go back! If you haven't tried Pure Barre, I highly recommend! Happy tucking!

Valentine's Day is Even Taking Over My Workout Wear!

Ok, I admit, this year I have gone nuts for anything with a heart printed on it. I don't usually go this crazy for a holiday (except Christmas, of course), but there are just so many adorable things out there right now! And I can't resist. This hoodie actually came from the little girls section at Target. I buy myself things from time to time while browsing for my daughter. They didn't have this one in her size - bummer. But someone had to have it! So I took one for the team! I'm staying in the V-Day spirit even at the gym!

In Love With Fabletics!

 

I recently signed up for the Fabletics VIP membership, and I was immediately in love! I know you've seen the ads - first outfit for $25. Here's how it works: Order you're first 2 or 3 piece outfit starting at $25. After that, they email you outfits they think you'll love at the start of each month. You can either place an order, "skip" that month, or do nothing, in which case your credit card will be charged, but that amount can be put towards a future purchase. No commitments! That's the best part! As a girl on a tight budget, I don't usually feel comfortable adding any new recurring expenses. That's what I love about Fabletics! I can order when I want, and if I don't want to spend the money, I just "skip" that month!

 

Since we're on the topic of finances, Fabletics is VERY reasonably priced. VIP prices on whole outfits start at around $50. That's crazy, especially if you're getting a 3 piece outfit. You really can't beat it. Well, MAYBE you could, but the quality would be questionable, and  Fabletics is not cutting corners on the quality. No see through pants here! The have the cutest selection of work out wear, so many different styles and colors to choose from, and it is super flattering. This is just my first order, but they seem to run true to size. I know I sound like an advertisement, but I'm just giving my honest opinion here.

 

I cannot wait to order my next Fabletics ensemble! Really, looking cute makes it so much easier to go to the gym, am I right? I've got my eye on a certain pair of camo leggings.....
