Favorite Finds, What I Wore | September 11, 2016

My Favorite Workout Pants

Ownzie Pant

On Friday, approximately 45 people and I rode at Soul Cycle for the girls of LifeHouse Houston. Blogging has brought so many unique opportunities to me, and this one was by far at the tip top of my list. When you get a chance to go beyond yourself on so many different levels, it becomes an experience. It’s a good thing it was dark, because I cried while riding. This is no surprise, since I’m a crier- ha! Thanks to all of you who showed up. I am grateful.

At the ride, I was asked repeatedly about my new snake leggings, which was nice and convenient because my next post was going to be about my very favorite work out pants! I bought my first pair of Onzie (own-zee) pants at Nordstrom a few years ago because I loved their graphic designs (post here). I fell in love with them then, but now it’s the only thing I’ll wear. I’ll dig around in my drawer until I find a pair of Onzie’s. And for this reason…

…I just keep buying more. I can’t help myself! Here’s why: They are made of what they call “free-flow fabric technology”, and while I’m not sure what that is exactly, I do know what it means to me. It is a lightweight, silky fabric that isn’t too hot to wear when you workout. In fact, the fabric gets cold when you sweat, which feels so nice. Oh, and it doesn’t show sweat lines. Plus, I love all their fun designs. Now you know why every time I’m at Nordstrom, I make a beeline straight to the Onzie section to see if any new leggings are out.

I really loved the colorful arrows on these leggings.

But, of course, I couldn’t stop there, because I saw this darling top I could throw on over my work out tanks for when I’m out and about. The back is open, which I love. It looks really great if you are wearing a work out tank that has a fun back (click here to see the open back). Well, if you are looking for some new work out pants, look no further than the Onzie section at Nordstrom. Soon you will be digging through your drawer for your own Onzie’s!

    Do these have any pockets? I prefer workout pants with a pocket for a key or ring.

    You should look into the new Tretorn “Nylite Plus” and “Nylite2 Plus”. These are new for 2016 and are much higher quality than the Tretorns of recent years — much more like the Tretorn Nylites from the 1980s and 1990s. They have the soft lined inside, supportive footbed, and classic style.

    How would you compare them size-wise to lulu?

      I typically wear an xs in work-out pants, but I wear a s/m in Onzie. I don’t wear a lot of lulu, so I’m afraid I can’t answer your question with confidence.

There are so many talented artists/designers in this world, and to be able to experience and be fully immersed in so many of their creations in one place was a really neat experience!! I highly recommend, if you have not been. Their show in Dallas is open through November 13th.

Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I ha Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I have a trick, and no, it’s not an expensive hair growth serum! It’s Castor Oil, so it’s all natural and inexpensive. Apparently, it’s been used for thousands of years dating back to ancient Egypt. Ok, and I use it on my eyelashes, too, but I’m doing that at my own risk. I don’t want to recommend this practice, since I don’t really know what it’s going to do to my eyesight. I know, call me crazy- it’s fine. 

Thanks to my friend, Michelle for telling me about this little trick!

I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of mental illness. If my friend is strong enough to stand at the podium and talk about her husband and the hope her family has in the midst of their darkest days, then I want to honor both of them by telling you about my struggle with mental illness. My friend mentioned that many of her husband’s closest friends had no idea that he’d been struggling with mental illness for 3 years, and I realized that many of you, and probably some of my closest friends don’t know how long and hard my struggle has been with mental illness. For me my mental illness wasn’t the kind where I couldn’t get out of bed or out of the house, which would make it hard to tell I was struggling. For me it looked more like battling through the day and struggling with my own self condemning thoughts and emotions - shaming myself for being happy one minute and sad the next, or for not being happy all the time, looking around at all my blessings and not feeling gratitude, which made me feel like there was something wrong with me. It was hard to get excited. On some days I walked around feeling like a scared puppy in a big bad world with my emotions right at the surface. For me, my faith is very important to me, and I knew this was not the life God had for me, so I started to pray for help and deliverance. God started to lead me to help in a whole bunch of different forms, counselors, health practitioners, friends, medicine, trauma therapy, EMDR, books, excercise, the support of family, and most importantly, Christ and His word. 
For me, it was over a 10 year battle probably because I was overcoming a lot of trauma being raised by an alcoholic mom. But for you it may be longer or shorter or this isn’t something you struggle with at all (hallelujah!). If you do, your emotions and your struggle may be different. But I’m here to say, you’re loved. You are loved by God and by so many of the people around you. Don’t give up. Dig in and fight the battle that’s happening in your mind. Fight it like you would if you had cancer. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #mentalhealthmatters

How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a new pair of jeans! You don’t need to buy a new pair of jeans to get the cuffed denim look! Just grab a pair of straight leg jeans from your closet, cuff them to be about an inch or 2 above the top of your ankle bone and use the nifty little gadget from this tutorial. Viola! Plus, the cuffed denim length makes it a heck of a lot easier to wear most of the shoes in your closet! #winning
