This is a follow-up post to my original post “The One Barbell Bra”.

Pictured above is the Henna Day Bra by Isis For Women. This is one of the One Barbell Bras featured on Title Nine’s site and my own as a good choice for those of us who are in the “small handful” category!?!

What did I love about it?

The fit–it’s adjustable (bra straps and back closure)!    This bra did not chafe, pinch or ride up or slide down anywhere!?!?!

The material:  Thick enough to offer coverage but light enough to offer “breath ability” during a workout.

What didn’t I love about it?!

The colors are beautiful, however, I’d love one in a neutral color!

Overall, this bra does what it says and I would definetly recommend it to you all! Even better is that this is not an expensive bra.  It’s on sale now for $24 on Title Nine and retails for $32.

Comments, thoughts or suggestions?! I’d love to hear them.

For the FTC:  This bra was sent to me for purposes of review, nobody paid me to write this review and my opinions are my own.

7 Days and Counting until the Next Level Invitational. In preparation for this event, we have been training 7 times a week! 2 days are rest days and 2 days we double up! Some of the movement standards have been announced and my trainers have been working us hard in the big weight categories such as dead lifts and back squats! And, I’m happy to report that I am feeling very strong! In fact, after 8 solid months of cross fit, I am finally in the 200 club tonight in the Dead Lift by lifting 210 pounds!! Don’t worry, Katia, you are still way stronger than me!

Check out my new shorts! Lululemon is one of the key sponsors of our upcoming event, and were excited to see us in their store! And, am excited to say that I finally broke down and bought Lululemon Groovy Run Shortsand they are so awesome…..watch out, I might get addicted!

In addition, I’ve also had to get serious with my weight training. When we are lifting extremely heavy bars, it’s important to have a solid foundation supporting you. My running shoes were actually causing my knees to buckle which could lead to injures… They are not so handsome and I had to buy a men’s shoe size, however, I am feeling a huge difference in my lifts and although I’ve only had them for two days, I’ve already had two PR’s in them, hahahahahaaa….

Shoes were purchased on the Rogue Fitness site.

I’m on a very strict zone/paleo diet for the next 7 days! After which, I will enjoy celebrating in a big way with wine, pasta and chocolate…did sneak some high quality chocolate in today, though.

Anybody have any questions for me? Thoughts/ Concerns?!?!

Note: Check me out over here today, I am actually pulling a truck with my best workout buddy Penny!

As we dash off to the mountains for a one night camping trip, I thought I should leave you with my best choice for an all around everyday water or trail shoe…….

These are both stylish and highly functional!  Whether we are hiking, wading in streams,  jumping rope or running, these shoes have been my constant friend and partner–no angry feet at the end of the day!

Love them!

Have a great Monday!

Bet you thought I shopped at Forever 21, right? Or, the Gap?  Or Nordstroms? Nope. nope. nope…

I wish I could say that I was that really stylish girl you see at the coffee shop with the matching purse and shoes and the coordinated outfit straight out of Lucky Magazine, but, alas, I am not and I never will be…My life as a mother, cross fitter, and active teacher requires different clothes and I’m happy with that….and those clothes last all summer as well.  The only thing different is that I throw on a skirt occassionally!

So, where do I shop?  Not at any of the above stores, for sure!  They are number one too far away, AND I wouldn’t know what to do with myself in Forever 21 other than to RUN the other way!!

However, there is always one store that carries the brands I like, REI.  I have been a fan of Patagoina since I bought my first top 5 years ago, and, guess what, it’s still in my closet!  Their styles are timeless, last forever, they utilize earth friendly materials, and they fit perfectly all the time.

My favorite shirt:

Patagonia’s Bandha Top

Patagonia’s Morning Glory Dress

Hotline Top

Vitalti Skirt

Funny, I don’t own any pants by them….Anyways, these clothes work for me!

Do you have a favorite brand? Share!

Title Nine does a good job of offering bras for all types of women athletes and I love the 1-4 barbell classification that they use….Bras for small-chested types are actually really hard to find. I’ve blogged about several bras that have worked for me in the past (Handful, Inc and Kalyx), however, these are both sports bras that work great for working out, but, are not so great for the cute, sleeveless tops I have. Oftentimes, I do resort to sports bras for all day because these are the most comfortable, but, they do not work with lots of regular clothes!

I would really like to hear from all of you with the same issue on a day to day bra!?!?

Below, is what I’ve found when doing a search, but I have not tried any of them.

Introducing Icebreaker. A New Zealand brand that offers sustainable clothing for men and women in merino wool. All the products have a baacode- a way in which a person can trace their clothing straight back to the sheep station. The story of Mr. Moon, owner of Icebreaker fascinates me! You can read more about his company in Time Magazine or in Financial Times.

What did I like about it?

*You can trace your shirt back to the sheep and the farmer.
*The shirt is soft as silk and does not hold any odors.
*It’s a sustainable product meaning it came from natural sources- unlike Patagonia whose products are made from recycled soda bottles.
*All the styles are very flattering and stylish in the long term classic kind of way.
*Although one shirt or dress will be run you $60 and up, these are long lasting, high quality pieces that you will cherish.

Below are some other styles that I loved!

I bet if you had the opportunity to touch it and feel it against your skin, you’d love it too.

P.S. I received the Icebreaker GT200 for purposes of review and I am very thankful to have it. All opinions here are my own!!

Now, I’m all for looking good when working out!  However, I am not sure I’d go to this level.  Check out these bras by BodyRock Sport!  All have been encrusted with Swarovski Crystals, some have zippered front pockets, and some even have MP3 Player pockets.  These are some serious “all bells and whistles bras”!

What do you think of this one?

Or this one?

Fashion shouldn’t stop at the gym door, that is for sure!

BodyRock Sport bras are available online with prices starting at $65.
