Comfort is Key

Rise and Shine! I hope it is beautiful outside where you live and that you are able to take advantage of the spring weather by doing something outdoors.

I was up and out early for my run and may I just say, I am LOVING my new Brooks Glycerin sneakers.

Foot pain? GONE!

Image

I was very excited to get my first pair of Pro Compression socks in the mail.

I am not good at retrieving  my mail on a daily basis (I know we have discussed this) but I made a special trip to my mailbox knowing these beauties could be waiting for me.

Image

I love the hot pink but would totally love if Pro Compression made a pair like the Little Miss Matched socks. The little girl in me secretly wants to wear knee high socks covered in cupcakes.

Image

The pink are fun though and super comfortable. I definitely felt the difference while running as well as after running.

They even match my new shoes…and my KT Tape.

Image

I finally found the package of pink KT Tape! Excuse me while I get excited for the little things in life.

Image

I had a nagging pain in the lower knee/inside leg area this week. Pretty sure it occurred after running some hills last weekend combined with the poorly fitting shoes.

KT Tape to the rescue. If you have not tried this amazing product, I insist you pick up a package next time you are in the drug store. I do not know how or why it works, it just does.

I topped off my pinkness today with my Hello Kitty headband. The headband is no miracle worker but it is cute and cute counts for something, yes?

U NEED THESE FLIP FLOPS.  

With the warm weather upon us, I love to flip myself around the town in my flops. But let’s face it, flip flops do not offer the best support. Nor are they always comfortable. Especially after running.

Image

I spotted this pretty pair at Nordstrom the other day and was immediately intrigued by the “comfort footbed” as labeled by Nike.

My feet have never been so comfy cushy in a flip flop. They may not be pink, but I am rather partial to purple these days.

Image

The purple-green combo is fun and I intend to look into the other color combos available as well.

I may live in them this summer. I will figure out a way to make these flops work with any outfit. They are THAT comfortable.

I now understand and relate to why Tess wore her sneakers to work in the movie Working Girl.

Have a great weekend!
