The best yoga pants you will EVER meet!

Happy Wednesday friends! Hopefully your work week is off to a fabulous, productive start so far. It was colder than usual in Sacramento today. I’m already daydreaming of spring and warmer weather!

Today’s topic: YOGA PANTS. A girl’s BFF. Our savior, crutch, and ultimate comfort. We know we can eat that additional slice of pizza or cake if we have these lovelies on.

Remember when yoga pants first hit the market years ago?! Flash back to 2013 when wearing yoga pants wasn’t acceptable out in public yet. Your Mom would scream at you and tell you to immediately put some real pants on! Forward to 2019…active wear is completely acceptable out in public. You don’t even look twice now at someone. Whether you are walking out of your pedicure, to lunch with girlfriends, or wearing as “leggings” with a cute, layered outfit during winter. It’s game on!

You may ask, who sells the best yoga pants? Answer: NORDSTROM

The brand is called Zella and holy moly they are EVERYTHING. Their nickname is the “live in legging”. They are extremely comfortable for any type of workout you choose to do. Whether it’s HIIT, Yoga, Pilates, Spin…they fit the occasion. These are the most flattering, (oh so slimming) yoga pants I have ever bought. Believe me, I’ve tried many brands. Zella yoga pants can be found in the activewear department at Nordstrom.

Zella High Waisted “Live In” Legging
(Awesome for women above 5″6)
*See below style for us shorter gals*

Zella Meditate High Waist Cropped
(Great for shorter & petite women)

Go ahead and give them a try. You can thank me later. I even got my Mom hooked. I’ll never wear another brand of yoga pants ever again. Shop the looks below. Until next time my loves!

New Year, New Me.

First things first, hello and welcome to my lifestyle blog! I’m Alicia, 29 years young, and a lover of life. I’ve been meaning to start my own blog for years now to be completely honest. I’ve been through a lot and want to share what’s on my heart. I want to inspire, educate, and be here to support anyone who needs it. Fashion is my passion, but I am a gal that has many hobbies and interests. Life is too short right?

It’s a new year…2019 (which is insane to me still) and time is only flying. Two weeks into January, my gut told me it was time to get healthy again. Stop putting it off. Stop making excuses. Figure out something that works for you. It got to a point where none of my clothes/shoes/bras were fitting anymore. As you ladies or gents know, this is our absolute worst nightmare. Especially since everything is crazy expensive to replace. I had little to no energy once I hit 2pm on the daily. Power naps and sometimes even a second starbucks run would get me through the day. My diet was absolutely terrible and I hadn’t been consistently exercising. I hit my heaviest weight. Completely embarrassed to post photos on Instagram or Facebook. Terrified to get undressed in front of my husband in broad daylight. All it took was one day for my mother in law to say, “Alicia you should just try keto! Give it a few weeks and see what’ll happen!”

Ever since that night I have been motivated, disciplined, and hopeful for future results. I am starting to get my health back on track. 10lbs down so far. More energy than I’ve ever had. Clothes that I haven’t worn in years are fitting me once again. After a week on keto, I could fit into a pair of jeans that were two sizes smaller!! I actually felt somewhat confident when one of my girlfriends took a photo of my hubs and I at our super bowl party.

2019 is going to be my year. It’s OUR year. Let’s throw our hair in a messy bun, down our espresso, and handle business!
