Friday Faves + Pro Compression leggings giveaway
Happy Friday! What do you have going on this weekend? Any fun fitness adventures or races?
Here are some faves from the week and around the web:
Henna tattoo. I’m kind of obsessed with my henna tattoo from the Yoga Journal conference. It’s exactly the type of real tattoo, in the same spot, that I’ve been wanting for years.
I told the Pilot, “They have real tattoo ink that looks just like henna!”
His response, “You know what else looks just like henna? Henna.”
Wahhhhhh.
Organic cherries.
Bo-Beau Kitchen. In Tucson, we had a spot that we went to all the time: The Abbey. It was “our place” and we love the food (Modern comfort American food and the best cheese boards) and atmosphere. We walked into Bo-Beau and knew immediately that we had found our new place. You can check out pics of the incredible decor and scope out the menu on the website, but we were both blown away. We shared a flatbread (goat cheese with beet and jalapeño), I ordered the scallops (the Pilot had steak), a wine flight, and shared the Ménage à Trois dessert(peanut brittle, chocolate, chery cheesecake and mint chocolate mousse). I’m pretty sure I was bopping my head to the live accordion music with the biggest creeper foodgasm smile on my face.
The Tory Burch for FitBit bracelet. I’m dyyyyying.
The hope that all of my impromptu Broadway musical singing will indexed come in handy.
Canyon Ranch Inspiration Awards, in partnership with Health Magazine. Canyon Ranch is providing these awards as their way of honoring everyday men and women who inspire others through their actions or efforts to live, work, play or love better. 70 people will win a 4-day trip to the Tucson or Lenox property, as well as $670 in spa credit. Amazing, right? Nominate someone that inspires you, and check out the full details here.
Rocking Birkenstocks again. If I’m going to wear unattractive shoes, might as well get them in bright pink 😉 SO comfy.
Pro compression leggings! (Discount alert: use the code “FITLEGS” to get 30% off the leggings or anything + FREE SHIPPING on the site. For the leggings, go one size up.) They sent me a pair to try out, and I especially appreciate the thick (aka not see-through), luxe fabric and flattering waistband. I’m really picky about leggings, especially since I wear them so often, and these are my new favorite pair.
You can switch up the style and length with the reversible cuff:
There is also an internal pocket (where I stash my car key and Gu) and the pants are moisture-wicking. I wore them to spin class and they felt awesome the entire time.
Pro compression offered to give away a pair of leggings to a lucky reader; just enter via the widget below. This giveaway will end Sunday night at midnight, and the lucky winner will be announced Monday am.
Ready, set, go!
Happy Friday 🙂

They look awesome, I’d love to try them!
You should do a Google image search for white tattoos. I have one on each wrist, and they are discreet and really beautiful. They just use plain white ink instead of another color. And I love the leggings, especially with the cuffs rolled up! So cute!
I’m wearing Pro Compression socks at work today! Wednesday strength training + Thursday long run = Friday crawling!
Love the Friday favorite posts!
Happy Friday! The menage tois dessert sounds amazing! No races for me as I’m still nursing a sore knee, so spinning tomorrow and out on my bike Sunday! I had been wearing the CW-X compression trousers since you recommended them when I could run, which were great – thanks for the reco! Always open to trying new options!
I love Pro Compression socks! I always wear them after long runs and they work wonders. Can’t wait to try the leggings!
I love my Pro Compression socks, so I can only imagine how amazing their leggings must be!
Do the leggings have the same recovery effect as the socks?! I’m so excited about them!
Compression socks are amazing, so I can only imagine how awesome those capris are!
Happy Friday! I love the leggings!
I have been trying to find non lululemon capris for awhile…I haven’t steered far from them (although I also have not bought anything new in a long time, with all the lulu crap that went on). So I am due for new pants!
happy Friday 🙂
I’d love to try the Pro Compression leggings on my long runs this Fall!
I would LOVE those PROCompression leggings! Perfect for running errands, exercising, lounging – pretty much anything!
Those compression pants look amazing! I love the cuff!
Uhh YES please!! Sooo cute!!
I love henna too! The leggings look amazing!
I’ve been looking for a new pair of leggings…these look super cute with the cuff 🙂
I get so obsessed with cherries every summer too. I go through pounds a week. Summer produce is the best!
I just started spin to supplement my running. I have to admit, I’m falling in love and these would be perfect.
Love the henna, and I love the leggings!
These look SO cute! I can’t wait to try them!
Love the Pilot’s response to the henna tattoo! Thanks for the giveaway, and have a great weekend!

Yes cherries! Aren’t they one of the best summer fruits! I just bought a huge bag yesterday 🙂
Would love to win especially for long travel!
Henna tattoos are so fun!
You should get the tattoo, it looks great on your wrist! My friend just got a tattoo in brown, henna-looking ink and it looks so amazing!

Those leggings are adorbs!
I would love to try these out! I’m a big fan of lulu’s run crops, but I’m picky like you about my leggings! Thanks!
Man those cuffs are adorable. Also it’s cracking me up that birkenstocks are so trendy again! I got a pair because I have a foot injury so they’re the only casual sandals I can wear but I guess i’m “in” 🙂
Happy Friday! I’ve never owned a pair of compression leggings, so free ones would be even better 😉 Thanks Gina!
