Friday faves + Jabra Rox giveaway
Hi! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? Any fun parties or BBQs planned?? (Here’s a post with some healthy BBQ ideas if you’re planning ahead!)
We’ve had a wonderful time hanging out with the Pilot’s mama/MIL/Livi’s nana this past week. It’s been so much fun to show her around San Diego and enjoy time together. Since the Pilot has been gone frequently since we’ve been here, it took a little longer than we’d hoped to get her out here for a visit. Thankfully, it finally happened, and it’s been great to have her here.
Some faves from the week and around the web:
The Old Spice Guy’s ice bucket challenge video.
THIS HOBO. I’ve been eyeing it for a while and now it’s on s-a-l-e…
The science behind making the perfect cookie.
THIS WINE. We’re fans of the classic over here, but I was stoked to see the Midnight version at Baron’s. It is to diiieeee for; probably in my top five inexpensive reds. We’ll definitely be getting it again!
Finding my beloved eyebrow brush. This is a random thing to love so much, but my Anastasia stencil and eyebrow brush have been missing for a week. I unearthed them from under the makeup drawer, in the way, way back (along with a long lost lipgloss). It was like Christmas!
More reasons coconut oil is awesome.
Yoga Rave in Tucson! I love Session Yoga and the cause (Ben’s Bells); hoping to make it down there for this. If you live in Tucson or nearby, check out the details here. It’s going to be an incredible event.
Stability ball exercises for a strong back.
These earbuds. It was my first time trying wireless headphones, and man, I’ve been missing out! I’m notorious for getting my hands tangled in the wires while running, and violently ripping the earbuds out of my ears. It’s a little painful. I was pretty excited when Jabra ROX offered to send me a pair of their Bluetooth wireless headphones to try.
The sound is crystal clear and AMAZING. They’re also easy to set up and use. At first, I was worried they were too big for my ears, but after using the attachments, they stay put pretty well. I’m excited to see how they pass the “ear sweat” test on a distance run.
Jabra kindly offered a pair of these for a lucky reader as well (valued at $130!). To enter, just leave a comment below with your current favorite workout song and I’ll pick a lucky winner Monday night at midnight (EST).
Happy Friday! See ya later today for Fitness Fashion Friday.

My favorite song right now is an oldie but a goodie! I can’t stop listening to Miss Jackson by Panic! At The Disco, it gets me fired up!
Awesome pictures! Who knew there was a science to making cookies. I always figure as long as chocolate was involved they were good 😉 I can’t say I have a favorite workout song, but I always love when old pop songs come on (think Nsync or Destiny’s Child). They always make me smile and pick my work out up a little bit.
I am loving All About that Bass by Meghan Trainor.
My favorite workout song is Shake it off by Taylor Swift
Love your pictures of the ocean. I’m jamming to “Black Widow” lately.
I’m loving Fancy by Iggy Azalea!
Pumpin blood!
Fallout Boy – Light Em Up. Best song for running!
My favorite work out song right now is Taylor Swift’s new one, Shake it Off!!
Girl Talk – All Day. The version with the entire hour in one song – it helps the long runs go by faster!
Anaconda by nicki minaj! Such a good remix for all my big booty girls 😉 haha this includes myself.
My favorite work out song currently is Battle by Christ August!
Black Betty makes me step up my game
My current fav is Black Widow – Iggy Azalea & Rita Ora!
Pump It…the Blackeyed Peas! Thanks for the chance! 🙂
I’m loving T.Swifts new song!
Right now I’m loving Turn Down For What!
It’s hard to pick just one workout song but the first one that came to was Punching in a Dream by The Naked and Famous!
Anywhere For You by John Martin is my current favorite!
My favorite song right now is All About that Bass. I can’t get enough of it!
Anything beyonce!
Anything from the newest Fall Out Boy album!
Beautiful beautiful pictures!!! Loving One Less Problem right now!!
Your pictures make me miss SD so much! My favorite workout song is Black Widow.
My favorite workout/running music is anything by Pitbull. He can do no wrong in my book
I’m loving Taylor swift’s shake it off. Love the beat!!
All about that bass!
For some reason I’m really into the new One Republic song, and Enrique’s new song “Bailando”!
Current fav is Vance Joy’s Riptide.
I agree, as a Spanish teacher I am really loving “Bailando”!
Right now I’m really into All About that Bass by Meghan Trainor! So sassy!!
I’m loving Pumpin Blood by NoNoNo. Perfect for running!
I am really liking the song “Sail” by Awolnation. It came on my Pandora channel and really gets me running!
I don’t know what it’s called, but it goes,
“NO NO NO NO NO NO PLACE I’D RATHER BE”
I don’t think I have a favorite workout song. But I will say that most of my playlists are made up of songs from the 80s. So maybe i can say that’s my favorite workout decade?
Shake it off by Taylor Swift 🙂
Don’t laugh- current favorite workout song is No DIggity..I’m still a 90s girl!
Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You) by Kelly Clarkson always gives me an energy boost!
Ghost by Ella Henderson has been on repeat during my gym visits the last few weeks!
I thought I was gonna be the only one to write this but guess I am wrong. I love All About That Bass for spin. It’s a fun out of the saddle song.
It’s ridiculously cliché but my favorite is still kelly Clarckson, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger haha!
I need these! My song is random… Clocks by Coldplay.
All about that bass is great.
My favorite songs that get me pumped and moving while working out are “Problem” by Ariana Grande, “Something Bad” Carrie Underwood and Miranda and “Sunshine & Whiskey” by Frankie Ballard. 🙂
My current favorite workout song is “Payback” by Rascal Flatts.
Light em up by Fallout Boy is the best!
Fallout Boy – Light Em Up
Since I am in my third trimester and I am doing far less intense workouts these days. I like a lot of instrumental, old blues/ jazz or classic rock. It keeps me revved up for workouts that are much slower and would feel more boring without the intensity I am use to.
Aahhhh I need new headphones terribly! Mine have completely died. I’m interested to know if these Jabra ones pass the sweat test though- that’s a major selling point for me. My favourite workout song? It’s kind of embarrassing: “Heart Vacancy” by The Wanted (DJ from Mars remix).
Too funny! Someone already said mine-panic at the disco “miss Jackson”- totally inspired by body pump!
