Currently Coveting - Workout Equipment & Accessories (Featuring Dicks Sporting Goods, American Eagle, & Amazon)

Happy New Year!
 
This is the time of year that so many people make New Years resolutions to workout more and get healthy.
 
Here are some of my workout equipment & accessories that I am currently coveting at the moment!


Currently Coveting - Workout Equipment



Outdoor Products Trail Diva Waist Pack - This seems perfect for carrying water, keys, and your cell phone during a nice outdoor walk, jog, or walk whichever your speed.
 
American Eagle Aerie Sequin Yoga Shortie - These are super cute and affordable! A great alternative to the Victoria Secret version.
 
Fitness Gear 8 lb Concave Kettlebell - Super cute and effective!
 
Empower 3-in-1 Kettlebell - This is great for beginners (or anyone for that matter). This allows you to adjust the weights as you advance in one simple product.
 
Polar FT4 Heart Rate Monitor - This beauty tracts your calories burned and monitors your heart rate while your working out. I actually ordered this from Amazon (way cheaper than other places) in PINK. :) I am so excited to start using this in the new year.
 
Fitness Gear 1 lb Neoprene Dumbbell - I picked this particular product because of the color! Dumbbells are perfect to incorporate in your workout routines.
 
Fitness Gear 8 lb Neoprene Dumbbell - Another cute addition to your workout equipment. It's important to gradually work your way up as you gain muscle and strength.
 
NIKE Women's Free Run+ 2 Running Shoe in Turquoise & Black - My favorite brand of running shoes is NIKE. These babies are gorgeous! A nice pair of running shoes make workout (and everyday life in general) more comfortable. I live in my NIKE running shoes - whether I'm working out or running errands.
 
 
Side note - I am not a fitness expert. I am a 24 year old (almost!) woman who wants to get fit and become healthier. These are my opinions. I am in no way an expert about workout equipment. The most important thing to remember is that everyone is different and you should do what works for you.

Currently Coveting - Winter Essentials (Featuring Hollister & Co., UGG Australia, J. Crew, Dorothy Perkins)

Winter Holidays are fast approaching.
 
Tis the season for boots, thick scarves, and warm layers!

Currently Coveting - Winter Essentials


Hollister Arrow Point Parka in Olive - I love Hollister jackets, particularly ones with fur hoods. I've been wanting an olive or army green colored winter jacket for this season!

J. Crew Chevron Checker Snood - Warm knit scarves are one of my winter essentials! This chevron patterned neutral colored scarf (or snood) is beautiful.

Dorothy Perkins Camel Two Toned Knitted Snood - This is a cheaper (more affordable) version of the J. Crew Snood. Still super cute and something to keep you warm this winter.

UGG Classic Short Boots in Gray & Pink - I've been converted to an UGG boot lover after purchasing my first pair back in November of 2012. These two pairs are super cute!


What are your winter essentials?

XOXO
