Fashion Friday - My Favorite Running Skirt and Flip Flops



This is the best running skirt I've ever purchased. I got it at Lululemon's here in Birmingham a couple of years ago. As all the Lululemon running shorts and leggings I have purchased, it has a zipper in the back for holding car keys or money and several pockets on the outside and tucked away on the inside for GU, salt pills, anything you need to get your through a long run or race. It's also great to go from your run to running errands without looking to much like you just stepped out of the gym.

The flip flops came from Saks Fifth Avenue about four years ago and I've just about worn them out. They are perfect for the beach or for wearing before and after a triathlon in transition. I shove them in my race bag before I go to the swim start and change back into them at the end of the run to get out of sweaty racing flats. Just for the record, I do NOT run in them because that would just be stupid and slow me down.  I do wish I could find another pair exactly like these, but I so far no luck!

Hauling Out The White Clothes and Shoes


 You can't open a door around here without this cat running out.  And I thought I could condition him to think that every time he gets out he would get a bath when he comes back inside.  He hates baths, but I still have some work to do to get him to make the connection.  Outside = Bath.


I think I can officially start wearing all my white dresses and shoes now that it's after Easter.  I never wait until Memorial Day.  It's already hot here in the south.   I wear white year round except shoes and summery dresses like the one I'm wearing here.  I chose to wear pink Tory Burch sandals today though instead of white ones.  I thought a contrast would be better.

This is one of my favorite white Free People Dresses.  See Phantom trying to get past me to run down the steps and off the porch.  Don't worry, he didn't make it past my leg.  I'm faster.  I love his tuxedo!

While I was running errands today I stopped in Lululemon's and spent way to much on athletic wear.  I don't feel too bad about it since I wear work out clothing everyday for almost the entire day, except going out or sleeping.  My friend at styleodyssey.blogspot.com turned me on to them when she was visiting over Christmas holidays.  She warned me that I would get addicted and there would be no turning back.  She was right!  I love it and I'm not getting paid to say that.


Even the Lululemon bags are way cool.  Or should I say "Hip".
