You know it is fall when you have a hard time peeling yourself out of your comfy bed and pajamas in fear of the cold air and chill that occurs when getting dressed.
Yesterday morning I quickly contemplated the unplanned rest day idea. I was cold, I was tired and I might have even been a bit cranky.
But, I decided that since I was already up, I might as well push myself to get dressed and tackle just 30 minutes on the elliptical, knowing that I would feel much better afterwards.
I really struggled to get dressed but I am telling you, once I put my favorite Lulu top on, I instantly felt a bit better.
I realize my face is cut off but the point of the above photo is not only to look at my pretty purple top but to check out my Bust Cubby that is peeking out from my tank.
I mentioned last week that I was introduced to the Bust Cubby at the Healthy Brand Showcase.
A little bit of info from the Bust Cubby website:
If you are looking for a unique, water-resistant case that will fit your cell phone, credit cards, Mp3 player, passport, insulin pump, pepper spray, epi-pen, keys, makeup/compact or any of your other essentials, you have come to the right place! The Bust Cubby was originally designed to strap to your bra or tank top, but you can also attach your Bust Cubby to the inside of your boot strap, purse strap, belt loop or lanyard!
It is true. Your Bust Cubby can hold your phone and/or other essentials attached to places other than a tank strap or bra . I can totally see myself or my friends attaching it to diaper bags, gym bags or any bag that tends to be a bottomless pit which keeps us from locating our phones and essentials quickly.
While I don’t wear cowboy boots (although I used to love my Justin boots back in the day) the girls had them on display at the showcase so you can see that yes, the Bust Cubby certainly attaches and tucks away nicely.
I couldn’t wait to test out wearing my leopard printed Bust Cubby attached to my tank top during my runs. While my pants/shorts/skirts always have a place for my key, I was excited to have a secure place to put my phone that would still allow me access and most importantly, allow me to listen to music.
I ran 10 miles with the Bust Cubby securely in place. I didn’t even notice it was there. It was so freeing to run without holding my phone and the wire to my earbuds did not tangle up once.
It is very easy to access your phone from the Bust Cubby too. I tried my best not to, I even controlled myself when a song came on my playlist that I didn’t like but if I needed to use my phone, I had no issue taking it out of the case and putting back, all while still running at a pretty quick pace.
I know, I am so multi-talented.
Bust Cubbys are totally machine washable (just don’t put them in the dryer) and come in a variety of patterns as well as different sizes depending upon the make of your phone.
Concerned about Radio Frequency and your phone being so close to your body?
From their website: We take this subject seriously. Our President questioned two separate Oncologists (one was an actual Breast Specialist) who discredited the validity of a link between the two. The 100%Copper Radio frequency shield will not keep you from absorbing all radio frequency waves coming to your phone, however, according to the manufacturer, the Copper fabric used in this shield can block 99.9% of RF signals. It is intended as a shield only to lessen the absorption rate into the body when wearing your cell phone inside the Bust Cubby as well as providing a RF Identity shield for your credit cards.
Just make sure to remove the RF shield prior to washing.
Ok friends, GIVEAWAY TIME!

Where would you attach your Bust Cubby?
Do you have trouble getting out of bed as it gets colder?
*I received a Bust Cubby free of charge; no further compensation was given for this post. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
Oh wow that is awesome! I have to wear two bras when I run because I haven’t found a supportive sports bra, so I would put it on one of those! lol.
Fall is definitely hard for me to get out of bed. I just want to cuddle with my big sweat pants on the couch in the mornings.
Haha that’s kind of random but I like it! I would probably attach it to my sports bra when I’m running!
I would love a bust cubby because I had been putting my phone into a sports bra sans protection and I temporarily water logged it! Haha I think I need an upgrade.
When I saw your review last week I thought these were just the coolest things! I’m just getting started on an exercise routine, so I would love to have this to throw my phone and mp3 player in while I’m getting started!
Oh I love this!!! This would be perfect for my early AM weekend marathon long runs! Yep, training for my first marathon- the Philadelphia Marathon in November! And, because my weekends are full of my twins’ activities, I have to get up very early (say, 4:15am) to get my long runs in!!! This would be ideal to attach to my sports bra to hold my cell phone and my “fuel”. Love love love it!!!
i run mon-fri in philly and would love to have this!! thank you!!
I need that!! I am always shoving mine in my bra lol
On the contrary to all the other responses I would attach it to my diaper bag since I always lose my phone in my large bags-great concept!!!
I guess this will be on post I can’t really comment about lol
lol funny.
I would love a Bust Cubby. I would use while I run & attach to my jog bra. I ruined my last phone b/c it got wet from the rain!!! This would be so much more protective & I would have to deal with an uncomfortable velcro device.
