I WORK OUT

::Shirt, Bra and Pants all Colosseum, Shoes Nike, Sunnies RayBan::  

You know those people that have amazing bodies but never have to work out a day in their lives and can just eat bonbon after bonbon and still look swimsuit ready all season? Yea, me too. I hate those people. Okay, I kid I kid, hate is a strong word, but I would be lying if I didn’t say I wasn’t envious..my best friend is like that and I obviously love her. Me? I eat one bonbon and BAM my jeans don’t fit <le sigh> So I have to make the gym a priority in my life (that and I want to live to be 200, of course).

Now, I am not the type of gal who goes to the gym full glitz and glam, but hey, I still like to have some cute workout clothes, who doesn’t? So when I was sent some Colosseum items to test out, I was seriously smitten. Everything is extremely breathable, adorable, fits well and provides the right amount of support for the gym or just a relaxing yoga class. Coming from someone who is a little more on the top heavy side, I found the sports bra to be very supportive and comfortable. And how adorable is this cut out tank? I felt like I could workout forever in this little ensemble (I didn’t though, don’t worry).

Go here to check out where you can get some Colosseum, I promise you’ll be in love.

Do you have a favorite workout label? I love Colosseum’s mid-point prices as opposed to some of the other brands I love. I think it’s safe to say we all want to sport cute workout wear, but we’d rather splurge on a date night outfit or night out with the gals. Affordable and cute…right up my alley!

p.s. Thank you all so much for the sweet comments yesterday about CB&BP turning one. You guys are the cats meow.

    Nice pieces for making the gym! Yeah, I know what you are talking about, though I personally feel no hate to those people. I feel like God intended us to be this way, so we should take it for granted. Lovely snapshots as well!
    Have a fabulous time!

    Best wishes, Alexandra

    Yeah, I am one of those people too, I do eat a bonbon and I don't fit in, well, anything. I feel like I have to workout 10 times harder than those that are gifted with more natural muscle mass than me, but, oh well, I guess everyone is designed differently, and that is ok 🙂

    You look awesome by the way! I love your workout clothes, I do not have a favorite brand myself, I usually pick whatever looks cute lol.

    What a fun top! I totally agree–nice workout clothes can make a run or a class so much easier. I just got these awesome Under Armour neon shorts and was so excited to run JUST so I could wear them. Fashion as a motivator!

    Ive been working out in the old navy clothes i got when they were having that crazy sale… I also wish i could just sit around and eat bonbons and not gain a pound… Boooo…. 🙁

    Isn't it so unfair the people that are perpetually bikini ready??!! If it makes you feel better though, I'm the same as you….eat a cookie and nothing fits me!haha Thank goodness for cute motivating workout clothes!

    That workout top and sports bra are amazing. Completely head over heels for that back cut out & hood! The criss-cross detail on the bra is so fun, too. You look super cute AND comfy!

    Obsessing over the sports bra. I'm right there with you about the gym – I basically look like a wet dog by the time I leave, but I like going in looking good!

    Cute! I really like this work out outfit! I am all about Nike Dri-fit because of the colors and the fit, but this is cute too! I have to work out almost every day too but I love it 🙂 Looking great as always girl!

    With that top, I'd be at the gym 24/7! I'm with you on the bonbons. I hate that feeling! Although I'm more of a brooks brand for running shirts/shorts, I'm now going to have to check out this new brand! Love that top! Keep up the good work!

    I envy these people you are talking about too, it's most of my friends! Not my though I have to sweat it out so I can at all those treats! This is such a cute outfit, I'm on the top heavy side too so I'm always on the look out for pieces with more support!

    Ahhh working out, sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it but I do it anyways. I like to believe having cute work out clothes motivates you to exercise more frequently. And this outfit is definitely cute.

    I love working out and cute workout gear! The hoodie is an adorable touch on that top! My favorite place to buy sports bras lately is Forever21 b/c they have reeeeally cute colors. I'm pretty sure they aren't supportive enough for large busts though, so they are perfect for my tiny boobs haha.
