Feel Good, Look Good

How many of you ladies feel better about yourself and exude more confidence when you wear those skinny jeans or apply a new blush? Perhaps its that new power red lipstick that puts a little bounce in your step. Sometimes looking good can help you feel good.

As rough and dirty as Crossfit can be, I still want to look good when I go in for a WOD. My uncle’s baggy old surf shirts and soffee shorts don’t cut it and don’t make me feel good for the body I’ve worked so hard for.

When I found this amazing Crossfit style blog, I went bananas! I’ve been shopping and making lists of all the new cute workout clothes I must have! Tracie’s blog features complete outfits that help inspire your own style.

Visit Tracie’s blog: AMRAP Style: The 11th Crossfit Skill to see the cuteness for yourself.

Here are some of my picks:

1. High socks. If you’ve seen my twitter feed lately, you know how banged up my shins get from box hops. I fall almost every single time.

Under Armour Repeat OTC Socks : $8.99

Fashletics Knee High Socks : $15.00

2. Shorts and Pants. I love compression pants and spandex because the fabric is super comfortable and it doesn’t get in the way of my movements. Plus, it doesn’t fall off my bum during box hops or double unders, which is always a plus!

Nike Slim Poly Shorts: $35.99

WODLOVE Retro Lounge Shorts: $23.99

UnderArmour Escape 18″ Compression Capri Pant: $33.99

3. Tops

Live Love Lift Tank: $24.00

Nice Rack! Tee : $22.99

I Heart Jerks Tank $27.00

I love the way Tracie puts together every outfit! Especially this one:

It’s important that my readers know this post isn’t about living up to the extreme standards to always look “pretty” and “perfect”. This post is about feeling good – whatever that means to you. Going to the gym in clothes that I feel make me look good, make me more confident and also proud of my body.
