Customize your Keds

Keds are pretty freakin’ rad! Especially when you consider they are celebrating their centennial milestone, and 100 years of female empowerment as the first sneaker designed for women! Like the first EVER! So major.

Believing women should create their own unique path in the world, Keds is launching the Keds Custom Studio, a new digital design lab that lets you customize your Keds to create your own signature design.

The design tool lets you choose between their classic Crashback (slide-on) and Champion (lace-up) styles which you can then pick from a number of colors, patterns and finishes to customize everything from the heel, binding, trim, eyelets, shoe laces and beyond. My favorite feature is the monogram! I like everything more with my my initials on it.

REVIEW: NIGHT Silk Pillowcase. Use code: prettyconnected20 for 20% off your purchase

night-silk-pillowBy now I hope all of you are sleeping on silk pillowcases. Cotton is just too abrasive for all of you stomach, side and back sleepers. From your face to your hair consider the effect of a cotton pillowcase vs. silk. Makes sense, right? One has a smooth glide and the other soaks up product and is so much harsher on skin and hair.

We’ve talked about this subject before so none of this should come as a shock, considering it’s something ever beauty expert from dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and hairdressers agree on.

My latest discovery is NIGHT, a line of new beauty pillow that moisturizes your skin and your hair in your sleep while compressing to your head. NIGHT is a hypoallergenic silk (machine washable) fitted pillow case on top of a unique oxygenated memory foam that self-adjusts to exactly the way that YOU sleep. The timing of this pillow was perfect since my physical therapist added a memory foam pillow to my list of products I need to get (up there with a whole slew of workout bands). This marries the two needs, and I feel like complete royalty snuggling up to my Night pillow.

Fitness Style: How to Take Your Outfit from Day to the Gym

Thank you Vocalpoint and DICK’S Sporting Goods for sponsoring this post!Dick's-Sporting-Goods-Under-Armour-Sports-bras

On Monday I had to be in Westchester to test out a salon and on my way over stopped at DICK’S Sporting Goods in White Plains to stock up on some new workout gear. They carry so many of my favorite brands including Brook’s Running, Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Under Armour… basically every major women’s fitness brand that is both fashionable and functional. The athleisure trend has full on taken over my life ever since I started cycling twice a week and going to the gym to get into shape for my People StyleWatch bathing suit shoot (coming out in May!) and now gearing up for LA and Coachella — gotta get my beach bod on…

Dick’s Sporting Goods Haul: Under Armour outfit, Brooks Running Glycerin 13 shoes

Being constantly on the go and the fact that you can’t wear workout clothes twice without washing them has has me hoarding fitness attire. Shopping the aisles, DICK’s has a great assortment of basics and prints and name brands at great prices. Plus the store is massive so there is a ton of women’s apparel and sneakers to pick from.

Being an fitness enthusiast has taught me a few things beyond getting into shape, mainly how to take an outfit from brunch friendly or running errands to the gym. My latest DICK’S haul included the following Under Armour outfit and Brooks Running Sneakers (featured above):

Taking the outfit above from fitness to fashionable only required a top and shoe swap (and an added kimono for good measure):

I’m wearing the Under Armour Capris and Sports Bra in the look above. I strategically fit my Brooks Running sneakers in a medium size purse so I don’t have to carry an extra gym bag. For any fellow cyclers (I go to Cyc), my membership includes shoe rentals which makes it even easier. When I’m
