Hey hey hey everyone! I hope your weekend was AMAZING and I’m kicking off this Monday with these faux leather leggings! Derby weekend was so much fun and the weather was perfect {for the most part}.  I had the pleasure of being a guest judge for the Longines Oaks Fashion Contest and experienced such a magical night at the Vanity Fair Toast Event that night.

Buuuut…all of the fun is over, and now it’s time to put the wine down and get back at it in the gym.  I will say that these faux leather leggings {there’s a similar pair here too} and mesh sports bra make it a bit easier to get back into the routine of things.  I also just upgraded my Polar watch to the A360 and so far I love it! You can find the exact one I’m wearing over here! The watch straps are interchangeable too, so I snagged this black one while I was at it. I also wear this polar strap with it {only when I work out} because I do such high intensity workouts and I want my HR reading as accurate as possible — however, it doesn’t require a strap!

Oh, and don’t forget about these turquoise Nike Roshe sneakers! They’re the latest addition to my collection and I absolutely LOVE them!
