New Balsa bags showed up this week in marble print. Here's the boxing bag from Carbon38. Marble has been having a moment, so this bag is kind of the epitome of fitness style. Plus, monochrome is always a good idea. I love it. I was almost sold on this one, until I spotted... The easy tote, from Bandier. This one is by Balsa as well. I really like both of these and would like to ...

Goldsheep x Carbon38 Polonium Leggings Review
Luxury activewear stockist Carbon38 has recently gotten into the business of making their own activewear label. They started off with a few basics, but recently released a more style-focused capsule. The polonium leggings are in collaboration with Goldsheep, a small leggings label. The print is Carbon38's design, but the fabric and manufacturing are by Goldsheep out of Laguna Beach, CA. The ...

I'm slowly whittling down my list of brands to try, and I finally placed my first Titika order! Titika is a Canadian activewear/fashion company.

I got a Nordstrom catalog in the mail this week, and their photo shoots made pretty much everything look cool. Here are some snazzy new crops by Zella, Nords' in-house fitness line. If you're in need of a ...
Calia by Carrie Underwood Try-On Reviews
I know I spend a lot of time on this blog talking about pretty high-end brands, so today I want to switch gears a little bit and talk about a more budget-friendly brand (well, at least a little more budget-friendly). Calia by Carrie Underwood has gotten a lot of buzz, in large part because of its celebrity backing. Besides that, Calia fills the niche of stylish, feminine workout wear at a price ...
Alala Reviews: Vests + Shadow Hoodie + Chill Tights (Again) + Pewter Blocked Crops
Welp, apparently I can't stop buying Alala. I feel like I've bought and tried on at least half of their fall collection by now. So, here we go again: more reviews! I bought all of this on Black Friday discounts from a mix of Alala's site and Bandier. (I'm *almost* done with the review backlog I've been working through for weeks. Yeesh.) Anyway, here's the details on my latest Alala ...
