Friday Favorites

March 11, 2011 by Kristy 5 Comments

Today is a rest day and a day off!  I took a vacation day today just because and I’m so looking forward to relaxing, getting some stuff done, and getting a much needed haircut.  I wasn’t too happy about waking up at 5am (naturally).  WHY?!?!  I was up from 5 to 6 and then fell back asleep but unfortunately slept through yoga.  Oh well.

It’s time for Friday Favorites…clothing edition!  This is funny since I’m not much of a clotheshorse.  As with most things, I’m picky which can make shopping a nightmare sometimes.  Shopping is a total hit or miss with me but unfortunately there are more misses than hits!

Banana Republic
When I walk into BR I want everything!  There are so many things that I love.  Not only do I like their style, but their clothes seem to fit me well.  The only thing better than BR is the BR outlet!  Oh, I can do some damage there.

Lululemon
I love buying running clothes more than anything so a store with running and yoga clothes?  Yes, please!  Everything is so nice and so high quality.  It’s definitely pricey but worth the splurge.  Two of their items are listed on my Favorite Things page.  And you get an awesome bag when you leave with their manifesto.  I think the manifesto is so thought-provoking that I leave the bag out in my closet so I can see it daily.

North Face Denali Jacket
I wear this jacket year-round and bring it with me everywhere.  Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song, I’ve Been Everywhere.  The proof is in the pictures…

    I, too, love BR. And the same goes for J.Crew. When I walk in that damn store I want one of EVERYTHING, please!

    And oh! Lululemon, how I love thee. I totally agree that, although spendy, they make some bad-ass workout gear!

    Might have to make a Lululemon purchase just for the bag! Thanks for hanging out last night. Was very entertaining.

    I think 95% of my work wardrobe (and probably normal wardrobe too) is from BR – I LOVE IT!

    Also becoming very much obsessed with lulu, and the fact that I have to go in there every single Tuesday for run club doesn’t make it any easier!
