The Latest In Fitness Fashion

Some girls obsess about their OOTD's, whether their nails match with their bag and shoes or whether they have the right ratio of designer to high street labels. Me on the other hand...Im obsessed with gym clothes.


There really is some fantastic gym & fitness clothes out there this season. Whilst my closet isn't quite as big as Khloe Kardashians, I'm sure I could give her a good run for her money.....if I had her wallet that is.


I love the fact that high street are now venturing into fitness clothes. Im all for high tech clothes when needed but its been like a breath of fresh air recently. High street stores are now offering fantastic sportswear, all amazing designs, patterns and pushing the boundaries of the norm we've previously seen, no need to now spend £50.00 on a pair of running leggings and £50.00 on a sports bra. The High street are now doing it cheaper!

First up Boohoo.com

 Top- £12.00

Leggings- £12.00


Fab designs and prints! For the girls who don't just want to blend into the background BOOHOO Sportswear is leading it for graphic prints this season. Ive tried a few pieces from Boohoo, although perhaps a little more research needs to go into getting their sizes right, I found I had to either go below or above my normal dress size.



Recently I purchased these.... there's only so much black lycra a girl can wear!



Top- £10.00 now down to £4.00
Leggings-£14.00 now down to £6.00

Leggings- £14.00 now down to £6.00



Bershka

In love with this place. I recently went on holiday to Fueteventura and spend quite a lot of time there, every time I go I have to do a spree as we don't have one in Newcastle anymore. They have just started doing a fitness line, and it is fabulous! Always the prettiest of colours, and flattering designs. Check out the coral/grey line they have out at the moment. Gorgeous and makes me feel slightly more girly when I'm Olympic weightlifting and sweating profusely.





Top £12.99
leggings £17.99
























H&M

Another big brand on the high street with affordable sportswear, also they do Plus Sizes (this is major news). I know some women really struggle with finding sportswear as a lot of the brands only stock smaller sizes. So for the plus size ladies out there your answers have been called.


Haven't got round to purchasing this yet, but its on my list! I love a Co-Ord set.


Sports Bra- £9.99
Leggings- £19.99


Missguided

Good quality and a great clothes line. Another brand with great graphic prints and doing things a bit different.



Top-£12.00
Leggings- £14.00












Sports Bra-£12.00
Shorts-£12.00




Sports Bra-£10.00
Leggings-£16.00
Zip Hoodie- £22.00




Victoria Secret

I may not look like Candice Swanepoel but I can pretend to! Their Yoga pants are amazing and make your bum look great! Victoria Secret and the PINK range are always so comfortable, they don't ride up in awkward places and they make you feel a bit more confident! Also the VSX Sports Bra is the best I've ever tried, brilliant fit but also gives a bit of lift (you ladies know what I'm talking about) I have this one in 4 colours!





£30.00-£45.00 depending on design.




Primark

A good old essential Primark binge every now and again is needed. Primark bring out new lines all the time and their fitness range is expanding. Obviously fantastic for price, can't go wrong!


 Hoodie- £8.00

Top- £4.00

Trespass Triflex Sunglasses Review

Lets be honest quality sunglasses are a must, whether participating in Sports or not, everyone needs them...and protecting your eyes is vital to good health. 
Trying to run in them or play sports is another thing though... and finding the perfect fit for your face and finding the right style for you can be a little tricky. As a former athlete training everyday in various conditions, Ive had countless bad experiences of running sunglasses in the past, ones which have stretched, buckled, scratched, put dents in my face, bounced all over and even slipped down my face and fallen off!
Thankfully Trespass have read my mind and asked me to review one of their most popular Sunglasses. 


Just to give you a bit of background...Trespass are a well established company, specialising in outdoor products for hiking, walking, running, camping, skiing, cycling, golf and many more! 
Their products are all high quality and long lasting, founded and based in Scotland they know a thing or two about extreme weather conditions! 
Trespass have won the British Apparel Export Award 3 times, International Trade Award at the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce twice, Lifetime Achievement Award at the Lloyds TSB Jewel Awards in 2009, Inducted to the Hall of Fame at The Entrepreneurial Exchange 2010 and Winners of the KPMG Scottish Leaders of the Year 2012, to name a few accolades in their trophy cabinet.
They were Official Providers of Casual Uniform for the Scotland Team at the Commonwealths 2014. Also have a Partnership with the British Children's Ski Team, BUCS Team GB Winter Team and the Ski & Snowboard Show in London every year.
This company screams quality and their Awards prove it. 

The Triflex Sunglasses I was asked to review certainly lived up to my expectations.
I'm sure some of you are wondering how can I be so happy with one pair of sunglasses? Trust me it is a problem to find the right pair! 
The Triflex Sunglasses are just what I needed for outdoor sports, my running and various activities. They are completely comfortable, so light that I didn't even feel them on my face. They have a UV 400 protection so I knew I would be protected against the bright sunlight and harmful rays. The sunglasses are designed so that sun rays don't get through the side of the glasses, another design bonus as others I've used haven't had this. They also have an adjustable nose pad so can be adapted to fit most people.

To my delight the sunglasses didn't slip once, bounce around or scratch my face. I didn't have to fiddle round with them like I have in the past with other brands and when I looked down they didn't fall off either. They certainly do what they promise and I can completely focus on my workouts whilst not being interrupted by sunglasses problems . 

The Unisex Triflex sunglasses are very Modern looking, a little Sci-Fi infact, but I loved them! The bright white frame and the ice blue tint on the polycarbonate glasses is such a nice touch, but somehow when you look through them it's perfectly clear with no blue haze at all. 
In my view they are perfect for all Sports and in particular Runners, Cricketers, Rowers, Cyclers, Hikers, Golfers and even people who like posing on the piste. 
In conclusion....A must have in the Sports Bag.
