Fitspo - Fit inspiration

This weekend i am going on a yoga retreat for 3 days with my yoga studio. I am so excited to be able to take some time out and relax as well as challenge myself and hopefully bring my practice to a new level.

i thought i would just share some fitspo pictures with you all.

Lorna Jane Haul

I was on my way to yoga after work yesterday when I suddenly realised..

I forgot to pack a top!!!

My Thursday class is an early class, so i don't have much time to run into the shops and buy a top. I was full panicking.

I quickly ran into the nearby shopping centre to Lorna Jane which luckily happens to be on the ground floor, Just love their stuff, and low and behold 20% off.
I picked the best day to forget my yoga top!!!

I got 2 tops and 3 crop tops all from the Excel range, which from the label  says:

'   Technical performance fabrics are:

shrink and fade resistant

Moisture wicking

quick drying and breathable   '

I already had 2 pairs of tights/leggings from that range and they are so good! because I do power yoga having clothes that are breathable and absorb moisture is so good, it helps to stop the sweat dripping off you onto the mat making it slippery. I would say that the price and the care instructions are a bit off putting with leggings usually being around $80, tops $60 and crops $50. They all say hand wash as well to help them last longer, but I am a bit naughty i just chuck them in the wash on a gentle cycle and they haven't been damaged... yet.

Yogi toes - to buy or not to buy?

 I have been doing yoga for ages now and my yoga mat is getting very old and worn, it wasn't a very good quality one to start with. I have been looking at investing in a better quality higher grip mat. As I do Power yoga (Done in High temperatures to help bring out the toxins in your body) I need a matt with a lot of grip, otherwise towards the end of the class I just can't hold any of my poses. 

     I don't really want to face plant it while trying to do downward dog!

I have noticed a few people at my yoga studio have a micro fibre towel that they practice with, Called Yogi Toes. I'm not sure if I should just get one of these or get a whole new mat, or maybe I just need to suck it up and get both.
