Dog Walking

Lululemon clothing: Still Pants, Cool Racerback, Define Jacket. Shoes: Asics, sunglasses: Oliver Peoples.

My favourite brand of athletic apparel is made by Canadian company Lululemon. From walking the dog to hot yoga, Lululemon's clothing keeps me cool and comfortable. I decided to snap some shots after taking Huxley to the dog park yesterday.

Dog Days of Summer

Blouse: Forever 21, Tank: Lululemon, Shorts: Joe's Jeans, Clutch: Louis Vuitton, Sunglasses: RayBan, Sandals: Target, Watch: Citizen, Necklace: Urban Outfitters, Earrings: Banana Republic.

In my area of Canada, the dog days of summer are here. It has been unbelievably hot here, and the humidity is out of control. It seems crazy that I have been shopping online for fall boots, jackets and sweaters when it is sweltering outside. Yesterday it was so hot that I didn't feel like leaving the house, but after a while I got bored and decided to go out thrifting. I decided to stay relatively cool and comfortable in a thin blouse and shorts.

Adventures of the Sewing Machine

Skirt: I made it!, Tank: Lululemon, Belt: Forever 21, Cardigan: Gap, Sandals: Frye, Sunglasses: RayBan, Necklace: ? (Old), Watch: Citizen.

Truthfully, not much planning went into this outfit. I had planned to wear this skirt and I happened to be wearing this tank while walking my dog earlier in the day, and it just seemed to work together. I threw on this wide belt and chunky necklace to complete the look.

On another note, I made this skirt on my sewing machine last summer. This skirt was the final product of the first adventure I had with my sewing machine, so I'm surprised and pleased that it turned into something that is actually wearable. I am working on a nautical patterned skirt now, so I will post pictures and the pattern I used for both skirts next week.

Lululemon loot

Lululemon run: swiftly tank in Tang Light, Lululemon flow y bra in Alarming, Lululemon run: leader of the track shorts in black, Minnesota Twins hat, Asics gel cumulus shoes.

My favourite exercise gear for yoga, workouts and running is from Lululemon Athletica. Not only are they Canadian, but they also use the most breathable, sweat wicking fabrics that stay put through inversions, downward dog and sweaty workouts. Last week I ordered a few items from Lululemon Loot (their sale section) and they came in the mail yesterday. I decided to take them for a spin yesterday when I took my dog for a run and I was pleased with how they looked and how they stood up on my run. This is the first Run: Swiftly Tank I have owned and I have to say that it the lightest weight Lululemon tank I have owned. It kept me cool for my entire run in the hot, sticky weather yesterday. I am far from a gazelle when I run but I always feel confident in myself when I am wearing my Lululemon gear.
