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 🙂

I’ve been wanting to try the Pro Compression Leggings! I’m glad to hear they held up well in spin class too!
I love the leggings!
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 🙂
Love the cuffs!
I live the reversible cuff! I’m short so this would make them the perfect length!
I love their compression socks so i can’t wait to try the leggings!
I think the leggings would be perfect for marathon training!!
I’ve been very curious about these! A little extra hip and quad compression would be great for my long runs!
Ooh, love Pro Compression sleeves! The leggings sound even better 🙂
I’m looking for a good pair of leggings, and the adjustable length might just have sold me on these.
Would love to try those leggings!
I’ve been eyeing these leggings, they aRe so cute! Plus good for recovery!
Love the leggings& pro compression !!!
I love the stripe on those! Would love to have a pair!
Love your pink Birkenstocks!
Those are cute!. Will they help with my IT band pain?
Always looking for a new great pair of leggings!
I have been looking for a great pair to add some compression to my knees for long distance running!
I’m always looking for a *truly* non see-through pair of leggings for Barre! Tired of X-ray bum in child’s pose 🙂 Those are adorable and love the cuff!
I have never worn compression leggings. A free pair is a great way to try something new. Yeah….pick me! 😉
I’d love to try these out!
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!
I would love to try out those leggings.
Love those leggings!!
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!

Awesome, thanks for the giveaway!
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.
I’m always on the lookout for a great pair of leggings!
Thanks for the coupon code! I will have to check these out!! Love a great pair of leggings.
I am soooo picky about leggings! These look awesome!
I love the cuffs and the henna. I’m too wimpy to get a tattoo. I would love to get a henna tattoo!
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…
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 😉
I love my PRO Compression socks, I’d love to try their leggings!
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!!!
I would love to try their leggings
Those leggings are so cute!
I love your friday round-ups!
Really cute leggings! Great giveaway!
