Chicago was so much fun this past weekend! I rarely get to see my childhood girlfriends, so this trip was definitely special for me.  It’s always a good time when we’re together! Anyways…I’m sad to say that this weekend is over {wahhh} and now it’s time to kick some booty in the gym! I’ve been currently loving this strappy laser cut sport bra — it comes in multiple different colors, it’s comfortable, and it provides the perfect amount of support.

I went ahead and just matched the whole ensemble together: this laser cut sport bra and these fun running shorts.  I’ve been loving white activewear lately — although, it definitely could be dangerous at times haha.  What are your thoughts on this outfit?

Also, don’t forget about this week’s workout routine! Enjoy!
