and lest you think my life is all posing in parking lots ...
I had the pleasure of holding this skinny little grump while we watched his older siblings hunt "gooses" and any listening grammar nazis ...
"Just come here, yous!!!"
She has perfected her technique. Watch out.
I'll be honest in admitting that I'd love to not be the cliché of a mom that wears her workout clothes all day even though she sometimes doesn't even work out (although if you've ever had the pleasure of lifting Kettlebash then .... you might let me off the "rest days" hook) but I totally am. So you can imagine how my little lycra loving heart burst when Albion Fit sent me these workout pants and this top. What I was not expecting was to love the shirt so much that it is now the first thing I reach for when I dress up in street clothes to go to places like the park. And it will get a tour of Costco tomorrow. It is that comfortable and soft and drapes perfectly and is the perfect length for tucking or not and looks nothing like sweating attire.
But don't let my obsession with the shirt make you think I don't love the pants because I do. I thought I'd never be able to top my favorite Gap G-flex workout pants that I live in during the winter months (which have happily coincided with postpartum months these past 3 years so ... I really love them) but these do. They're not glorified tights like a lot of workout pants can be and don't get any ideas (aka: I'm not pregnant) but the first thing I thought when I slipped these suckers on was how great they'd work as maternity. The waist band is super stretchy but still really supportive. If they make them in black anytime soon I'll be all over them. Or they'll be all over me.
So .. what did you learn? That if you've been on the hunt for the perfect long sleeve shirt ... this is it. And the pants are perfect so if you win you'll want to get those too. Oh! And they carry gorgeous swimsuits too ... this is my favorite.
!Albion Fit is providing a super generous discount code for $20 off any order of $50 or more ... patton20 and it's good through the end of this Friday, August 2nd. Use it!
And onto the rafflechopping ... may the best reader vin.
I love good workout gear. And I wear it all the livelong day too-- might as well be cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the length of the shirt. Could be one of the few tops that work with my hips.....
ReplyDeleteI have a little case of the Mondays, so the silver Silver Signature hoodie is calling my name. The hoodie paired with the Mantra long pants would be perfect to sit out and enjoy my porch on this relatively cool summer day.
ReplyDeleteLOVE their stuff! The breathe freely tanks look perfect!
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to try Albion! Love the 'Breathe Freely Tank' and 'Illusion Capri's.' Thanks Grace!
ReplyDeleteLove the workout gear.
ReplyDeleteDarling! I've been wanting to try their stuff!
ReplyDeleteI am loving the shirt that you are wearing!
ReplyDeleteHoping I win because I LOVE that shirt!
ReplyDeleteI love those gray pants. But jut liked at their site and love the swimsuits! My favorite is the high tide suit.
ReplyDeleteThe rainbow skirt looks really cute, but the capris you're wearing look awesome as well. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteLet's be honest ... no working out over here. The Athena or Poppy swim suits for me!

ReplyDeleteI recently discovered Albion Fit and I looooove their stuff! It is so incredibly cute, I want it all. Oh and by the way Grace, if you have any info for the world on just HOW you stay so gorgeously thin after THREE BABIES, feel free to let us in on the secret.
ReplyDeleteAhh the kids and the "gooses" - so cute! Love the whole workout look - that shirt is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI think I need that shirt.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I've been drooling over the Breathe Freely tank and the Illusion leggings for awhile now...
ReplyDeleteHooray for long and loose enough workout shirts! And nonseethrough leggings.
ReplyDeleteLove those Sweet Stripe jackets..I'm always on the colder side, so it's nice to find cute workout jackets!
ReplyDeleteCould use some new cute workout gear, just got the ok to workout post baby! Super cute stuff
ReplyDeleteOkay, first: you look totally adorable. Second, I recently added some gym time onto my usual running-outside routine, and I immediately realized that I need some new workout clothes. I can wear the same all-black ensemble when I'm out at 6am running around the neighborhood; no one is close enough to tell if they're threadbare or show my bumps in all the wrong places...in the lights of the gym, however, I look pretty shabby. So yes, Albion Fit would help a ton!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have to decline all those pool party invites if I had that Athena suit!
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the "breathe freely" tank!
ReplyDeleteSince I've been in need of a new suit since 6 years ago, the poppy suit is by far my favorite. Next, any of the capris and the breathe freely tank all look like the most comfortable things to wear.
ReplyDeleteI love the lounge crop pants in charcoal!
ReplyDeleteUmmm... I'll take a breathe free tank, go long crew, and a signature hoodie please... Oh and how about a charcoal lounge crop too! Crap their swim suits are adorbs too!
ReplyDeleteThe sweet stripe full zip jackets are adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove both the top & bottom - I'll need cold weather running gear soon, will be checking out their site.
ReplyDeleteI don't even have kids yet & I already live in my yoga pants all day, so here's to more stretch pants!
ReplyDeleteI've had some of their bermudas for a few years and would love to add a cute top. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove the two things you are sporting yourself! Pick me! Pick me!
ReplyDeleteWow. Love those striped zips!
ReplyDeleteI love the capris! I would wear them everyday in the summer. If I was a tennis player, I'd be all over the skirts - adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove the pleated tennis skirts, but if I'm honest with myself, and since I am pregnant, I'd probably get those capris.
ReplyDeleteLove the Athena suit, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThose leggings look super comfy and the Athena swimsuit may be the prettiest one piece I have seen all season! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is a coral 26.2 zip up hoodie that I really like, but I think I'd love the Illusion capris you have on and want two pairs (so 1 can be in the wash :).
ReplyDeleteBeen dying for a few of those Love Racer tops!
ReplyDeleteThis would be perrrrrfect! I am having a baby in 2 months and will be living in workout clothes and other stretchy things. I hope I win!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for offering this giveaway! I love The Sweet Stripe Full Zip in Coral and the Optimum Capris!
ReplyDeleteI like their signature hoodies!
ReplyDeleteLooks great!! I like the Go Long Crew in Black... looks like something I'd wear all year long!
ReplyDeleteOooh that polka dot thingy (that's a word, right?) made me think that maybe wearing a swimsuit wouldn't be so bad after all. Swimsuit camouflage or something...
ReplyDeleteAnd since this is my first comment on your blog (big time stalker): Reading your blog brightens my day, thank you!
I love the charcoal gown suit! Super cute. And I love what you're wearing. I think I'd live in that!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win!
ReplyDeleteI really love the breathe freely tank- dewberry color is gorgeous! or the go long crew in jade.
ReplyDeleteI love that multifunctional shirt and I love the pants, but my legs are triple the size of yours so pretty sure it won't look so great.
ReplyDeleteA go long crew please!!
ReplyDeleteThe High Tide swimsuit and the breathe freely tank are both lovely.
ReplyDeleteIllusion capris and alta sports bra in graphite? Yes please! :0)
ReplyDeleteI'd get the lounge crop pants
ReplyDeleteCute! I definitely live in my workout clothes too—I have fancy workout clothes that are saved just for special occasions like play dates!
ReplyDeleteI'd get the optimum capris and I wouldn't stain them with bleach. Ever.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great promo code - especially since some of their hoodies look to be pretty expensive!
ReplyDeleteThe swimsuits look super cute, and the breathe freely tanks look like they'd be great maternity/non-maternity workout gear.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally interested in their workout clothes- particularly the skirts maybe. Or the Capri pants. Love it!
ReplyDeleteCute! I love the shirt you're wearing!
ReplyDeleteI love the Black Blousy Suit!
ReplyDeleteThose capris look awesome! Love reading your blog, just recently found it. Thank you for being real!!
ReplyDeleteSign me up for the illusion crop pants. I'm in for anything that can promise a nip and tuck! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm currently running on the treadmill in my pajamas. I think I might win the "most in need of new workout clothes" award.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving their tank tops
I don't know about a favorite, but I love their suits!!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous! I would love that top, or any of their swimsuits, so so cute.
ReplyDeleteI too wear workout clothes even though I may not be working out that day. It's so much easier to chase after the kiddos in a comfortable top and pair of pants.
ReplyDeleteI keep hearing about Albion fit from bloggers, and I am curious. I am in the market for some new work out clothes as well!
ReplyDeleteI would love to give them a try.... hope I win!
ReplyDeleteI have desperately been wanting some fantastic workout leggings, but I might just blow the whole thing on that shirt (or the signature hoodie in black), because if I can look half as good in it as you do, I will feel pretty hotttt...which would be a great step up from how workout gear usually makes me feel.
ReplyDeleteI love the high tide bathing suit.
ReplyDeletethose leggings! would be so comfy for studying duh.
ReplyDeleteI love it all... and if I win, I promise to work out everyday and not just use them for comfy clothes *ahem*
ReplyDeleteOh my. Suddenly, my running gear is looking rather worn. ;)
ReplyDeleteI desperately need some new workout gear!
ReplyDeleteThose breathe freely tanks are great
ReplyDeleteI would want the Breathe Freely tank!
ReplyDeleteLoving the blousy tank and all the go long crews! And LOVE the swimsuits - maybe the swimsuit top was the blousy one I loved and would get.
ReplyDeleteI'm digging the petal pant...love the ruffle!
ReplyDeleteHow to choose? I love the Love Racer Tank!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to grab the optimum capris. And...hello, skinny mini!! Three kids, what?
ReplyDeleteIs it cheating to say all of it? Because all of it.
ReplyDeletelove the lounge crop!
ReplyDeleteThose illusion capris look pretty amazing
ReplyDeleteI love the breathe freely tank!
ReplyDeleteI want your legs. Please and Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThe Balboa tunic dress is adorable and the draw cord top looks pretty nifty, too.
ReplyDeleteWow, I don't know which swimsuit I'd pick, that is a great selection of one pieces!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need some new workout gear, the lounge crop pants look really comfy.
ReplyDeleteyou should model :)
ReplyDeleteI love the breathe freely top. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteFeeling the signature hoodie!
ReplyDeletelove the signature hoodie and the go long crew!
ReplyDeleteand ummm you've had 3 children? i don't believe it, skinny minny!
Ooh I love the illusion capris and the sweet stripe ones too!
ReplyDeleteI never invested in maternity workout clothes...so this would be awesome for the next time around!
ReplyDeleteI love that the shirt is so long! Definitely must have for talk girls who don't want their entire butt hanging out while they exercise...
ReplyDeleteI love stretchy these days... sigh.
ReplyDeleteCan't decide my favorite! I lurve the Breathe Freely tank and the Match Point skirt a lot a lot.
ReplyDeleteLove Racer in silver.
ReplyDeletecute casual outfits! love the signature hoodie and go long crew.
ReplyDeleteWhile those pants would not look as good on me as they do on you, I find myself wanting them nonetheless. I love Albion Fit -- don't have any of their stuff but have been wishing I could afford their Midnight Dip swimsuit!
ReplyDeleteLove the swimsuits!
ReplyDeleteI would never ever be bold enough to wear it, but the Sunkissed Bikini is adorable!
ReplyDeleteAll the comfy legging and zip ups!
ReplyDeleteI love that white shirt. And I moving my wardrobe more and more to a more casual look which may well include workout/ maternity pants.
ReplyDeleteI love the sweet stripe full zip in coral/ grey
ReplyDeleteSuper cute stuff. I wear real clothes all winter, but I stay in my workout clothes during the summer.
ReplyDeleteI've started running (although on a current hiatus due to a softball knee injury) (and I just tried to spell "injury" as "engury" - me thinks it's bed time?) so I would love to get some good running clothes - I especially need some good capris - I hate short shorts!
ReplyDeleteAlso - grammar nazi here. BUTS, I love little kid grammar. So maybe not?
I love the crop lounge capris.
ReplyDeleteyou are such a babe. seriously. i can never have enough workout capris or tanks, so i'd take those, fo sho.
ReplyDeleteThe high tide swimsuit is so cute! I also LOVE that long sleeve tee...it seems to be out of stock right now though:(
ReplyDeleteI've been on the hunt for perfect workout tanktops...not too loose but not too tight and binding...the Love Racer Tank looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI am totally on board with trying to look nice and giving stay-at-home moms a good look, but at the same time, I just want to be comfy!!
ReplyDeleteThey have such cute one piece swimsuits! Also I love the zip-ups they have :)
ReplyDeleteGo long crew? Yes please. .. maybe 2. You know incase ones in the wash
ReplyDeleteI love the workout pants! The boot cut are my fave but the hoodies and tshirts would be awesome! truckredford(at)gmail(Dot)com
ReplyDeletelove the daisy swimsuit!
ReplyDeletelove the length of the crew shirt but also like the breathe free tanks.

ReplyDeleteCute!! Not sure I could handle wearing the pants, but you look darling.
ReplyDeleteAt first glance the Illusion Capris. But I could fall in love with any of their products!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm starting yoga in a month and currently have no actual workout clothes, those leggings and top would be SPECTACULAR. (i am also loving your shoes!)
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeletewell now i want that shirt
ReplyDeleteThey have cute stuff! I went to a new gym today in an old t shirt...yeah, no one does that anymore. Everyone else had cute workout clothes that coordinated with their neon running shoes.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking those pants look fabulous and comfy. I need a pair!
ReplyDeleteI'm becoming one of those moms wearing the workout gear all day --- in hopes I'll actually work out. That shirt is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love their racer tanks and love sleeve crew shirts.
ReplyDeleteI love the go long top and the sweet stripe capris!
ReplyDeleteI would love to get some workout pants and a racer back top!!
ReplyDeleteThe breath freely tank in Cherry is an amazing color! Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteI would love the go long crew and lounge crop pants!

ReplyDeleteloving the illusion pants! I'm training for the chicago marathon and I always feel better when I look good :)

ReplyDeleteOo! Loving the breath freely tank and the optimum capris
ReplyDeleteI liked the illusion charcoal capris and many of the cute swim suits.
ReplyDeleteI also fall into the mom-wearing-workout-clothes-but-no-workout camp. I love it here. Camp never ends.
ReplyDeleteThe jaw dropper and show stopper swimsuits are AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteLove the tanks they have on their site with the loose fit. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI want to lounge in the go long crew in ivory!
ReplyDeleteI really like the breath freely tank... mostly because it just looks so flowy and would likely contain any future pregnant bellies.
ReplyDeleteI love the top you're wearing . . . and I would like the body to go with it, please and thank you.
ReplyDeletein the mood for some new workout gear...those pants and top will do the job. k thanks!
ReplyDeleteI would totally wear that...for workouts or just for sitting around and watching Doctor Who while the kids nap
ReplyDeleteI love the illusion capris in charcoal and the Love Racer tank in silver!
ReplyDeleteI would love this, the clothes look fabulous!
ReplyDeletenot that i ever win giveaways, but workout clothes always give me motivation to work out the first week...so why not :) and all the clothes should do the trick, they all look fun.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I have one of their long sleeved crews with the thumb holes, and I wear it it incessantly. To work out? Umm, no. But I think I wore it for three days straight not too long ago.
ReplyDeleteI have just started exercising again (my little one is almost a year! where did the time go???) and am in great need of some workout pants! I love the petal pant!
ReplyDeleteI don't have kids yet and I already live in my workout clothes-working out or not. If only my work wouldn't frown upon it I'd probably never change.
ReplyDeleteI always think the more I wear workout clothes the more likely it is that I'll work out. It's not really true but I try. I love these new finds of yours!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI love the shape of the Go Long crew, but the Breathe freely tanks look comfy since it's about a million degrees outside. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so comfy cozy - my kinda workout gear!!
ReplyDeleteI am in need of some new workout clothes! These would be great!!
ReplyDeleteI am in desperate need of new workout clothes!!! Mine are all on their last legs.

ReplyDeleteSort of in love with the advantage peplum skirt. I too am postpartum (my second is one month old) and I think it would be the schmanciest item in my wardrobe at this point. :)
ReplyDeleteThat shirt looks SOOOO comfortable!!! And is there such a thing as too many pairs of workout pants? I think not.
ReplyDeletebreathe freely tank, please Grace!
ReplyDeleteBeing a crossfit mom, the breathe friendly tank looks fab!
ReplyDeleteI like Ooptimum capris in graphite!

ReplyDeletepretty big fan of the ballerina swim suit!
ReplyDeleteAny of the swimsuits...gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love the shirt, it looks very practical and so much better than a shirt that's a typical length!
ReplyDeleteI can always use some good work-out pants.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I love it all. However, my favorite would probably be the workout pants and breathe freely tank.
ReplyDeletei like the breathe freely tanks!
ReplyDeleterafflecopter: daniel
Love it all, but especially that go long crew.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I want exactly what you are wearing.... it looks so great! And i don't care if it is cliched, I'd happily wear that clothing all day and not go to the gym/yoga!
ReplyDeleteI love Albion Fit! Their gown suit in poppy is my favorite. And you look great in their workout clothes!
ReplyDeleteI love the top you're wearing. Did you get your regular size? Is it tight? It's looks tight on the model but not on you.
ReplyDeleteLove all of the Go Long Crew tops!
