March 2016 Fabletics Review

My weight has been up and down for the majority of my life. In 2014, I lost over 40 pounds and felt the best I have in my entire life. In 2015, while it was one of the best years of my life my weight skyrocketed and my health was not a priority. I let the stress of finishing college, moving 3 times and starting a brand new job in a brand new state be an excuse to eat junk and stop working out. Honestly, it happened and it's okay, I think those were good excuses at the time but now I am done making excuses.

So I have decided to go back gluten-free (because I have a gluten intolerance and it is actually really toxic for my body), no soda, and home cooking 6 out of 7 days of the week (everybody needs a treat meal, my preferences are a burrito bowl from Chipotle or Grilled Nuggets from ChickfilA). In the last two weeks I have lost 10 pounds so I am off to a great start.

I was caught browsing YouTube the other day and Fabletics reviews came up. Fabletics is Kate Hudson's brand-new line of activewear. They offer sizes from XXS to XXL!!!!!!! It is a subscription service, that you can shop or skip every month, just decide between the 1st and 5th of every month. I loved the idea of shopping when I want and skipping when I want. The amazing deal they have going right now is join as a VIP at no cost and you get your first outfit for $25 ONLY!! The outfits do range in price about $50-$100 for 2 or 3 piece outfits, I don't want you to be shocked when you see that. I spend $60 on VSX Leggings so $60 for a quality pant, sports bra and top is a WIN in my book. So what did I have to lose! Check it out HERE

For the last couple years I have been shopping for active wear at Victoria Secret. While it is quite pricey, their sport bras keep everything in and supported and their pants are thick and nothing shows that shouldn't haha. That is why I loved this Fabletics commercial and decided to give them a chance.

My Review:

I ordered three items:

1. Salar Legging in Black Paint: I am absolutely in love with this print and legging material. I have been wearing these all weekend. They are a thick material. You can not see my skintone throught the white paint spots and it doesn't stretch to make the print look awkward. I am looking to purchase a matching sport bra this month. Highly recommend this print!

2. Ginger Pullover in Pop Coral: Love the color and the gorgeous cutout in the back, but I like my tops to be looser for workouts so I would recommend getting a size up on this. I am also absolutely in love with the thumb holes in this. I do think that because I am in Arizona and the temperatures are quite high I don't feel like this is a top I will be working out in in the next couple months but because of how fashionable it is I could see me strolling to the grocery store in it during these cool, dry nights.

 3. Salar Capri in Black: I will be honest this came free with my purchase. And... HALLELUJAH!!! I have been dying for a good pair of black capris to wear to softball practice especially. While capris are just a few inches shorter than full leggings, there is something refreshing about that during these warm months ahead. The biggest issue I face with capris and crop active pants are that they start to cut off my large calves but these are PERFECT. Who couldn't use another pair of black active pants! I love these so much I am about to start buying them in every color, that is when you really know you are in love with something!

So to sum it up: Fabletics is the bomb dot com. I also know how difficult it is for plus size women to find good, comfortable and fashionable active wear, well I have found it! Here is the link if you want to check it out! http://www.fabletics.com/invite/98789692/
