1 | Detagging before trying it on Just because something is your normal size doesn't mean it's going to fit. Sizing can vary wildly between brands, between styles, and even between different colors/prints of the same item. That said, fit is key when it comes to fitness clothing: something that's too tight, too loose, pinches, or slides around isn't going to work. It's ...
Outdoor Voices Review: Tri-Tone 3/4 Warmup Legging
Outdoor Voices is quickly gaining a foothold in the activewear market with their minimalist, hipster-chic designs. Unlike most fitness fashion brands, Outdoor Voices takes an openly laid back approach.

That said, over the past ...
K-Deer Jamie Stripes Review
Ever since K-Deer was kind enough to send me some of their leggings a few months ago, I've been hooked. I already had a soft spot for striped pants, but K-Deer takes it up a notch. At first, I was worried such bold stripes would look too clownish, but once I wore them, there was no going back. They are so bright and fun that it's hard not to love how they look.
