Friday Faves + Pro Compression leggings giveaway

Happy Friday! What do you have going on this weekend? Any fun fitness adventures or races?

Locks

Here are some faves from the week and around the web:

Henna tattoo. Iโ€™m kind of obsessed with my henna tattoo from the Yoga Journal conference. Itโ€™s exactly the type of real tattoo, in the same spot, that Iโ€™ve been wanting for years.

I told the Pilot, โ€œThey have real tattoo ink that looks just like henna!”

His response, โ€œYou know what else looks just like henna? Henna.”

Henna

Wahhhhhh.

 

Cherries

Organic cherries.

 

Bobeau

Bo-Beau Kitchen. In Tucson, we had a spot that we went to all the time: The Abbey. It was โ€œour placeโ€ 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 jalapeรฑo), I ordered the scallops (the Pilot had steak), a wine flight, and shared the Mรฉnage ร  Trois dessert(peanut brittle, chocolate, chery cheesecake and mint chocolate mousse). Iโ€™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. Iโ€™m dyyyyying. 

The hope that all of my impromptu Broadway musical singing will indexed come in handy.

Because Iโ€™m tacky.

Rocking Birkenstocks again. If I’m going to wear unattractive shoes, might as well get them in bright pink ๐Ÿ˜‰ SO comfy. 

Birks

Pro compression leggings! (Discount alert: use the code โ€œFITLEGSโ€ 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. Iโ€™m really picky about leggings, especially since I wear them so often, and these are my new favorite pair. 

Pro compression  1 of 1

You can switch up the style and length with the reversible cuff:

Pro compression  1 of 1 2

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!

    i’ve been seeing theses leggings float around the blogger interwebs and I am obsessed with the cuff detail!

    Also, creepily smiling and bopping your head is totally acceptable in foodgasm/live music situations. I’m sure you weren’t the only one ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. Michelle on July 18, 2014 at 2:29 pm

  16. Erin on July 18, 2014 at 2:35 pm

  19. SaraRM on July 18, 2014 at 2:47 pm

    I’ve been very curious about these! A little extra hip and quad compression would be great for my long runs!

  20. Shannon on July 18, 2014 at 2:51 pm

    Ooh, love Pro Compression sleeves! The leggings sound even better ๐Ÿ™‚

  21. Kayla on July 18, 2014 at 2:53 pm

    I’m always looking for a *truly* non see-through pair of leggings for Barre! Tired of X-ray bum in child’s pose ๐Ÿ™‚ Those are adorable and love the cuff!

  31. Norma on July 18, 2014 at 3:18 pm

  32. Betsy on July 18, 2014 at 3:21 pm

    I’d love to try these out!

  33. Kelsey @ Ramblings of Change on July 18, 2014 at 3:28 pm

    I am in love with your Birks – the pink is amazing! I bought my first pair this summer, and I’m thoroughly in love. =) That would be a beautiful tattoo. I have the Finnish word ‘Sisu’ on my arm in a henna-like color and love it! No one ever thinks it is a real tattoo!

  34. Tisha on July 18, 2014 at 3:31 pm

    I would love to try out those leggings.

  35. Diane on July 18, 2014 at 3:32 pm

    Love those leggings!!

  36. Amy on July 18, 2014 at 3:38 pm

    Hello Gina,
    Ooooh! I so hope I win these leggings! I’ve been seeing them everywhere among the HL Blogsphere. I would definitely love them on hikes and runs. I think they’d help my legs recovery nicely. I don’t even have a pair of the ProCompression socks yet, so I’m really hoping I win these leggings. If they “work” then I’d be more apt to try the socks.
    I hope I win!

    ~Amy ๐Ÿ™‚

  37. Danielle on July 18, 2014 at 3:44 pm

    Awesome, thanks for the giveaway!

  38. sarah on July 18, 2014 at 3:46 pm

    I love it when pants have a spot for keys. It is one less thing to worry about when going for a jog. These pants seem amazing.

  39. Susan on July 18, 2014 at 3:47 pm

    I’m always on the lookout for a great pair of leggings!

  40. Maria on July 18, 2014 at 3:47 pm

    Thanks for the coupon code! I will have to check these out!! Love a great pair of leggings.

  41. Kate on July 18, 2014 at 3:49 pm

    I am soooo picky about leggings! These look awesome!

  42. Ally D on July 18, 2014 at 3:49 pm

    I love the cuffs and the henna. I’m too wimpy to get a tattoo. I would love to get a henna tattoo!

  43. Becky @ Goodness Grapevine on July 18, 2014 at 3:50 pm

    Loving the tattoo!! Err ‘henna’ tattoo! I’ve been thinking more and more about tattoos and if I were to get one… it would definitely be on my wrist as well. Actually a henna tattoo is a good way to test out the waters to see if I’d like it. You’ve got me thinking…

  44. Hannah on July 18, 2014 at 3:57 pm

    Love the cuffs on the leggings!

    I’m saving in order to get on the FitBit bandwagon, and that bracelet looks amazing – put that on the list too ๐Ÿ˜‰

  45. Rebecca on July 18, 2014 at 3:59 pm

    I love my PRO Compression socks, I’d love to try their leggings!

  46. Ashley on July 18, 2014 at 4:01 pm

    Why does pilot not want you to get a tattoo (do you not have any others?) There was one I’d wanted for YEARS and finally got around to doing it about 2 years ago. I still love it and wish I would’ve done it sooner! In my opinion, spur-of-the-moment tattoos = maybe not a great idea. But if there’s something you’ve thought about and wanted for years, then it’s probably not something that you’ll regret later because it was carefully thought through and you still want it even after a long time has lapsed.
    PS: Super cute reversible cuff on the leggings!!!

  47. allison on July 18, 2014 at 4:08 pm

    I would love to try their leggings

  48. Lizzy on July 18, 2014 at 4:09 pm

  49. Abby on July 18, 2014 at 4:10 pm

  50. Neena on July 18, 2014 at 4:11 pm
