Fashion Friday Featuring Klen Laundry

So sometimes you just don’t feel like dressing up, you feel like wearing you’re favorite t-shirt, yoga shorts, and a comfy pair of socks. Let me tell you I have never loved a pair of socks quite like the way I love Klen Laundry’s! I received my package from Klen Laundy on Saturday and I felt like a kid on Christmas, you may think its silly to get excited about socks and such but I don’t care, its the simple things in life afterall right? So I thought I might share my comfy Fashion Friday with you all.

As long as I’m on a yoga mat I might was well do yoga right?

and because I clearly haven’t any idea of what is socially acceptable you may now feast your eyes on this picture.

Yes that is me in with a pair of underwear on the outside of my yoga shorts with a towel cape. Sorry mom this picture alone terminates any chance I had of becoming a future president. All joking aside these underwear are super soft and so comfy, and while they may be meant for guys, that’s not stopping me from wearing them. They fit like boyshorts which I love. So ladies if you’re a fan of boyshorts buy yourself a pair, and guys since they’re clearly made for you lot you ought to buy yourself some.

Keith Harkin T-Shirt: I got this shirt from one of my bestest buds who lives too far away. Keith didn’t have the shirts for sale when he was in my neck of the woods, but he did when he was near my dear “mindtwin” so she bought one and shipped it to me! How great is that? I saw that Keith was thinking of selling these online so I bet if we bug him enough it’ll happen 😉

Socks, Koozies, and yes even underwear: Klen Laundry, an awesome company who’s products are made of bamboo so they stay nice and fresh, because goodness knows socks can get pretty gross even with regular washings! Another really awesome thing about this company is that for every pair of socks you buy they plant a tree. I mean how awesome is that?

Hope you all enjoyed this post and had a good laugh at my ridiculousness, again sorry mom. 😉 Happy Friday.

So Glad I Found Yoga!

For those of you who don’t know I’ve lost a good bit of weight, I can recall seeing the dreaded scale read 178 when I was at my heaviest. Honestly it almost made me cry, I’m such a girl. As of today I have lost 28lbs *Sarah pats herself on the back*. I was never the “skinny girl” but wasn’t necessarily the “fat girl” either, I categorized myself as curvy and could stand to lose a bit of weight.

Black was just about the only color I would wear.

I’ve always been a pretty healthy eater, lean meat, fruits, and veggies you know? But I was never consistent enough in my workouts I would be really dedicated at first, but never made it past 3 weeks. Well one day I was really upset (boy problems of course) so in order to clear my mind I decided to go for a walk, since I was livid the walk turned into basically a march, then a run. I had finally experienced the mindclearing powers of a run and was hooked after that! I kept jogging for several months, I would jog around the park and jog back home, and that is how I lost a good bit of weight to begin with. But I had to stop jogging at Doctors orders after I had a weird dizzy spell spaz episode. So I was bummed, I tried dancing to lose weight…didn’t care for it, also tried weights, liked it but after awhile it made my neck and shoulders hurt. So there I was wondering what to do, so I went on youtube and looked up yoga routines. Thank God I did, I found Tara Stiles and started following her videos and saw even quicker results than jogging gave me. I lost fat from running, but with yoga I am gaining muscle, improving my flexibility, and getting better balance, which for a klutz like me is incredible!

By far my favorite yoga accomplishment! Crow Pose.

Standing bow pose.

Pigeon Pose

Reverse Warrior

King Cobra Pose

If this post seemed like endless bragging on my part well…it is haha. I’ve worked hard and I am proud of my accomplishments. The only person who can hold you back is you, get out of your own way and make things happen!
