Something that I don’t highlight on this blog nearly enough is how important being active is to me. I find it so rewarding (and borderline necessary to function) to wake up and get a good workout in before the day starts. I grew up hiking, swimming, doing gymnastics, playing soccer and tennis, and partaking in neighborhood water balloon fights every summer, so the desire to be outside and be active still drives me.
Another thing I love about physical activity is the clothing (saw that coming, I bet!). If I could substitute half of my wardrobe for workout attire, I would. The only struggle is that the nice workout clothes can get pretty pricey. Which is why I must turn you on to one of my favorite brands that I find is sometimes unheard of by many! It’s called ‘Zella’ and can be purchased exclusively at Nordstrom. It’s a brand that was developed by a product designer from Lululemon, so the fabric, design, and fit are nearly identical to the popular workout brand. I have owned both brands, and still find that I favor Zella; the ‘Live-In’ leggings I purchased 2 years ago are still in better shape than other brands I’ve invested a pretty penny into, and have owned a shorter amount of time. My Zella’s still have not pilled, faded, or lost their sheen; I can’t say the same for my other high price point leggings. And although Zella is still a bit pricier than other options, their long lasting durability pays for itself. Don’t believe me, try them out for yourself and let me know what you think! 🙂
