Working out is a part of my day at least five days a week if not more. It ranges from taking a Pump class to hopping on the spinning bike to lifting weights to Pilates. It has become part of my life and will continue to be part of my life. I love this hour or more each day to get strong and let the stress from the day burn away. It makes me a better person, a better Mommy and a better wife.
One thing that I have found is that once I find clothing that I love, I tend to want to buy that brand over and over again because I have found the clothing and support that works for me. Recently I came across a new clothing line based in Seattle called NaLa Seattle. Their clothing line meets the needs of anyone and everyone who exercises. If you run, do yoga, spin, walk - you name it, they seem to have it. Their clothing is made from organic cotton, supima cotton/micromodal and recycled polyester. If you’d like to learn more about the fabric they use, visit their website.
At this point you might be asking why I am blogging about this company, well for many reasons. The first is that I workout, as stated above. The other reasons have to do with I am a busy mom of four amazing children; I don’t always have time to “dress up” when I am running around and I like to be comfortable in the clothes I sport at the gym. To give you an idea about the line, here is what Seattle Magazine (December 4, 09) had to say about NaLa Seattle: Finding affordable workout gear you aren’t ashamed to wear in public is a challenge. To help solve this gym-to-streetwear conundrum, busy local moms Laurie Barokas and Nancy Cirillo have created the NaLa line of comfy, chic workout clothes with a stylish, spirited twist. The flirty, feminine details in Barokas and Cirillo’s line (wide bell sleeves on lounge tops, twisted straps on workout tanks, cowl neck hoodie tops) will inject new life into your yoga, running or workout routine. Our new favorite is their little running skirt (pictured above), just one example of a NaLa garment we could live in--literally.

My best NaLa Moment recently was completing the ZOOMA 10k in Colorado Springs last month in under the time I had wanted. I trained for this event and was able to complete my goal. What have you done?
