Aside from my visit to lulu for try-ons, I also dipped into Lorna Jane for a minute. I was on a mission: specifically, I wanted to try on the spot me 7/8 tights and matching bra. A simple, clean black and white geometric pattern is a wardrobe workhorse. There's something about the way they did the dot pattern that was really playful and appealing to me. Unfortunately, the moment I ...
Lululemon Reviews: If You’re Lucky LS + Real Quick Crops and Tights + More
I made a quick stop into lulu this weekend during my day trip to the city to do some try-ons. I can only go to lulu on weekends (since it's 2.5 hours away), which means it's always mobbed. So, my patience for doing try-ons in a crowded store is limited, at best. At any rate, I still managed to convince myself to try on a few things. Here are my fitting room ...

A Short Visit to Yosemite: Seeing The Iconic Sights
Well, I lost my resolve. I mentioned in my post a couple weeks ago that I was itching to visit Yosemite National Park, and I wasn't kidding. I'd been stalking rates and weather for a few weeks, finally found some inexpensive airfare and pounced. After 8 months of working long hours pretty much non-stop, I was more than ready for a little break. Our visit was during the first weekend in March ...
Nike Metcon 2 Review: Performance, Fit, and Metcon 1 Comparison
Since Nike's Metcon 1 was released for women last summer, it's been my go-to shoe for my workouts. I absolutely love the fit, function, and the beautiful design. I originally reviewed the Metcon 1 here. So, my interest was definitely piqued when Nike announced that a newly designed Metcon 2 was coming. The new iteration was released in January of this year. I was a bit disappointed with the ...
