Stylish Workout

It seems that nowadays everyone is talking about weight loss and losing a couple of pounds. Especially since it is still the beginning of the year there are many people who made resolutions to lose weight during the new year. But who says that you can't look good while doing it. Having the right workout clothes can make you actually want to go out for a run or hit the gym. There are many places to buy workout clothes but the one that is becoming popular is from online. Lululemon is a website that has many different types of workout clothes. They have sports bras, tanks, yoga pants, and more. Although it may be a great place to find cute workout clothes you could end up spending a ton of money that you could have saved by buying workout clothes from somewhere else.



Most of the things from Lululemon have designs that you might not be able to find anywhere else. Including a tank that they have with a built in sports bra. But it's not tacky it's almost as if you are just wearing a sports bra under neath the tank. Depending on your style it might also just be nice because of comfort. So now there should be no reason to not get out and start working out.


Make A Statement

Statement necklaces are seen everywhere on girls.They are usually very big and colorful and stand out.They are great because they can be worn so many different ways. The main thing when picking out a statement necklace is the quality and price. There are many different types of necklaces that are made by many high scale retailers but as well you can find knockoffs of the originals that people make. Many girls would like to buy the necklaces at a cheaper price then having to pay a lot of money for something that they may not wear that often or just don't have that kind of budget to be spending that much on jewelry.

One type of statement necklace that became popular was the bubble necklace from J.Crew that had a starting price of somewhere in the hundred dollar range.But since the design came out there have been different copy-cat designs on Etsy and other little boutiques on the internet that are about $20. Although they might be made to fall apart so to speak. If you lose the necklace you won't have to worry about losing a ton of money on it. Whereas if you were to spend a bunch of money on a necklace you would always be worried about where you placed it.



 The necklaces are great because they can be paired with so many different outfits. You can dress up a simple outfit by making it pop with color. Or you can just add it to any outfit really to make it stand out. One of the best ways it has been worn is with simple outfits like a simple cute top in a solid color, riding boots, jeans, and the statement necklace.


Pinterest

When Pinterest was just starting to get noticed everyone was obsessed with it and everyone was waiting for that email that told them they could get an account. If you were lucky enough you got that email within a couple of hours or a couple of days. For those who were not as fortunate had to wait weeks to get the email.



If you are a bride to be, new mom to be, college students, or fashionista there is always something to find that fits your personality. Find new ways of being organized and new ideas you may have never thought of. Especially as a person embarks on their journey to college. Which once was pins of food and clothes and items that we may never own turned into pins of what to take to college or what to do with your free time.


But regardless of what you use it for it will soon become addictive. You will find yourself procrastinating on  work or missing important dates (like the one with that cute boy), all because of a social media site. You are pinning in the morning, when you get a break, eating lunch, eating dinner, and before you go to bed. You say that you won't fall into the habit of using it every time you get, but you must be gravely mistaken. It will run your life.

How does it work? Well it's actually quite simple. The pin boards are designed by you, you name them and give them a theme of what it will be for example, if you love monograms then you would possibly come up with a catchy name like "Monogrammed Life" or "If it isn't moving monogram it" then you could be plain and just write "Monograms".

For whatever you use it for you are bound to find new and interesting things. But although you may find new things you might have to give up a part of your life.
