{thanks to @shriverja and @disneyphotopass for this collab ๐Ÿ˜‚}
      #fableticspartner ๐Ÿฅฐ A full day started with a workout then errands. I am really trying to make my days include WELLNESS so I can stay consistent with fitness and better eating. Itโ€™s hard with older boys who can eat whatever they want. Sigh. 

Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m so thrilled to be a #fableticspartner Their workout wear is quality fabric that flatters, sculpts, and never looks sheer. Iโ€™m more than a little obsessed with the tie detail on these leggings too. After yoga, I threw on a slouchy sweater and @lineapaolo wedges and was ready for the rest of my errands and maybe a quick meet-cute. Scroll through for details. 

Did you know that @fabletics has a really generous VIP program with exclusive discounts, products and they have their own new app, @fableticsfit for workouts on the go. With new styles dropping every Thursday, becoming a VIP is the best idea if your workouts are a little motivated by your outfit ๐Ÿ˜‰ {plus, new VIPs score 2 bottoms for $24 with their first orderโ€”what what?!?!)
