FASHION : why look cute when working out ?

we took some pics on our evening walk yesterday. it’s just a brilliant way to either start off, or round up, a working day – don’t you think ?

i’m not sure if this is just me, but i’m truly more motivated to work out when i’m feeling cute in my workout wear. is that strange ?
a kawaii pair of socks, a little bit of lipstick, layering up to create a cohesive look, a nice watch. it doesn’t take much.

ok, so my workouts are very low on the intensity scale, i just like walking, hiking, pilated, that sort of thing. when doing more heavy duty workouts, looking cute might not always be practical i guess ?

workout wear is so hot though. feels like sports brands have really come out of their bright-neon-everything-pink corner they’ve been haning out in since the what… the 80s ?

here’s for the futuristic, badass sportswear trend, that looks both functional and hella tough. think rocky balboa rather than richard simmons. who’s with me ?

the weather yesterday looked so promising. clear blue skies and that magical late afternoon spring light. but as soon as we stepped outside, heavy dark clouds just came crashing in. and by the end of this 10 minute shoot – it had even started to snow. snow ! come on april, you can do better than this.
luckily i had brought another sweatshirt just in case ^.^
