Hi! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? Any fun parties or BBQs planned?? (Hereโ€™s a post with some healthy BBQ ideas if youโ€™re planning ahead!)

Weโ€™ve had a wonderful time hanging out with the Pilotโ€™s mama/MIL/Liviโ€™s nana this past week. Itโ€™s been so much fun to show her around San Diego and enjoy time together. Since the Pilot has been gone frequently since weโ€™ve been here, it took a little longer than weโ€™d hoped to get her out here for a visit. Thankfully, it finally happened, and itโ€™s been great to have her here.

Some faves from the week and around the web:

The Old Spice Guyโ€™s ice bucket challenge video

THIS HOBO. Iโ€™ve been eyeing it for a while and now itโ€™s on s-a-l-eโ€ฆ 

The science behind making the perfect cookie.

THIS WINE. Weโ€™re fans of the classic over here, but I was stoked to see the Midnight version at Baronโ€™s. It is to diiieeee for; probably in my top five inexpensive reds. Weโ€™ll definitely be getting it again!

Midnight  1 of 1

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 (Benโ€™s Bells); hoping to make it down there for this. If you live in Tucson or nearby, check out the details here. Itโ€™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, Iโ€™ve been missing out! Iโ€™m notorious for getting my hands tangled in the wires while running, and violently ripping the earbuds out of my ears. Itโ€™s a little painful. I was pretty excited when Jabra ROX offered to send me a pair of their Bluetooth wireless headphones to try.

Rox headphones

The sound is crystal clear and AMAZING. Theyโ€™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. Iโ€™m excited to see how they pass the โ€œear sweatโ€ 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 Iโ€™ll pick a lucky winner Monday night at midnight (EST).

Happy Friday! See ya later today for Fitness Fashion Friday.

xoxo

Gina

  11. kandi on August 29, 2014 at 11:17 am

    I’m all about Boom Clap right now. It’s so catchy it hurts!

  12. amber conger on August 29, 2014 at 11:17 am

    Awesome pics of the beach! I want a SD vacay now! My current workout fave is ALLLLLL about the bass, no treble. It is constantly stuck in my head~!

  13. Allison on August 29, 2014 at 11:18 am

    I love working out to Michael Franti & Spearhead “Love Invincible” — especially while running or spinning

  14. Kelly S. on August 29, 2014 at 11:18 am

    I always listen to rock my run playlists which has a wide variety of music.

  15. Paula on August 29, 2014 at 11:18 am

    Sweet mercy, wireless headphones are what my life has been missing! I freely admit to jamming to house music while I work out, and Kiesza’s “Hideaway” has been on my repeat list lately.

  16. Ashley on August 29, 2014 at 11:19 am

    I love when lil Kim’s “money, power, respect” comes on…really pumps me up!!

  17. Kaylin on August 29, 2014 at 11:21 am

    I love “Summer” by Calvin Harris!

  30. Christa @ Edible Balance on August 29, 2014 at 11:28 am

    Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons is still a favorite of mine. Just makes me grind it out! These bluetooth headphones would be a lifesaver, I’m ALWAYS yanking mine out on the treadmill. SO awkward.

  31. Jenni on August 29, 2014 at 11:29 am

    “Rage the Night Away” – Steve Aoki ft. Waka Flocka Flame
    Mixin beats up all throughout the song to keep you p-u-m-p-e-d!

  32. jillian on August 29, 2014 at 11:29 am

  37. Kaitlyn on August 29, 2014 at 11:32 am

    I love Coldplay – Every teardrop is a waterfall as a final push in my workout! I don’t know why, but it totally gets me pumped.

  38. Ann on August 29, 2014 at 11:33 am

    My favorite workout song – an oldie but a goodie is Let’s get this party started by a Pink.

  39. RachelG on August 29, 2014 at 11:34 am

    Fireball by Pitbull is my current fave song for Zumba (maybe because after every class I can’t get it out of my head!!) ๐Ÿ™‚

  40. Amy on August 29, 2014 at 11:34 am

    My current song that I love, All About That Base:) by Megan Trainer, so catchy, easy to walk briskly to……….:)

  41. Stacey on August 29, 2014 at 11:35 am

    My favorite song is Priscella by Miranda Lambert

  42. Yvonne on August 29, 2014 at 11:35 am

    My current fad would have to be “shake it off” by Taylor swift.. so silly but it works!

  43. Emily on August 29, 2014 at 11:36 am

    Happy by Pharrell is my jam right now!

  44. Jackie on August 29, 2014 at 11:36 am

    Kelly Clarkson’s – What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger!

  47. Kim on August 29, 2014 at 11:38 am

    I love love love when KC and the Sunshine Band’s Boogie Shoes comes on my playlist or Eminem’s Shake That comes on.

  48. Kristin on August 29, 2014 at 11:41 am

    These look awesome! I have accidentally knocked my iPod off of my machine so many times because I got my hands caught in my headphone cords.

    I’m loving Burn by Ellie Goulding.

  49. Stephanie on August 29, 2014 at 11:41 am

    My favorite song on a run is “Stockholm Syndrome” by Muse and “More” by Usher is a fave when I am lifting.

    I am running my first half marathon in October and wireless headphones are gonna be a must-have

  50. Randi on August 29, 2014 at 11:42 am

    I need those earbuds! I’m always tangled in my headphones. And….I’ve currently misplaced mine. Maybe it’s hiding like your lipgloss and brow brush was?! My current favorite workout song is still Britney’s Work…. Always keeps me going.
