// Bala floor series in blush, Port de Bras jumpsuit //

My daily pilates workouts are so much cuter with the Bala Floor Series in blush. The play mat has extra support and grip. The hourglass roller is what I use on my back to unwind each night. The balance blocks are so versatile that I can find a million ways to plank to work my arms, core, and legs. The floor series allows me to move better and love my body even more.

// Carbon38 workout looks //

Jumping rope with a dash of pastel pink and pretty blues in Carbon38. I loved shooting these two looks for their #YourMove campaign. My outdoor workouts feel much more exhilarating when I have a bold color palette to match my mood. It’s time to stock up on a bunch of summer brights for every single one of your cardio sessions! Who else is having an arms day?

Dylana and I are super excited that our NYLORA Spring/Summer 2021 ad campaign is now live on the NYLORA homepage! Think pretty ballerina pastels, epic onesies, and flares you can move and groove in. Spring 2021 is all about simplicity, crisp colors, and pieces that hug the body in all the right places. I can count on NYLORA for the support and extra chic comfort I need these days when I get my daily movement on. What’s your favorite piece from the collection?

I will spending a lot more time in and around the home this weekend so this dancer is keeping things comfortable. Leg warmers. Leotard. Extra glamorous puffer jacket. KHRISJOY gives our winter staples a totally new kind of chic. Tweed perfection. Now this is a look that’s perfect for plié-ing across the living room floor, don’t you think?

// Adam Selman x Le Specs sunglasses, Prada bag, Cushnie top, Koral biking shorts //

This is one look to bike around Brooklyn in. The extra shiny short, a Koral original, and a pop of green, thanks to the Adam Selman x Le Specs sunglasses collaboration, are my sporty summer essentials. Made for a weekend sweat out in the park. I could see my parents rocking this in Santa Monica in the early 80’s. Everything skintight and shiny. Dare to get a little weird during your workouts these days and reflect off the sun as you run on by.

A quick warm-up on my roof because I am taking part in the FP Movement #MovingTogether dance challenge for COVID-19 relief and Mental Health Awareness! The future has been put on hold and getting back into dance has kept me grounded and centered with my mind and body during these days at home. It’s so important to be in tune with your inner thoughts and wellbeing now more than ever, as we navigate the new sort of routine we find ourselves in. Find the dance and learn it here!

For every dance learned, Free People will donate the Mental Health America COVID-19 Response Program. Get dancing so that we can give back more!

It’s Saturday and there are so many ways to get moving today. Bend it back. Stretch it out. Get those hips up. Sit that booty down. This is a fun little workout series shot in my home for my friends at Koral. Koral has invented the shiny workout set, and I’m just so in love with this stunning purple set. Cute gear gets me up and moving. With all this time at home, I find myself doing a workout once a day. It’s that one hour at the end of my day that I totally dedicate to my mind and body. Pilates. Barre. HITT. Dance. The Align Method. I’ve never felt stronger. Use this time to take a little extra care of yourself. Keep it shiny this weekend!

I think I have the most fun when it comes to athleisure. NO KA’ OI mixes the spirit of Hawaii with incredible Italian-made design and quality. Here I am taking my nightly stretch in the most sick workout look I own. I’m in love with the 70’s inspired colors and stripes complete a futuristic, elegant touch. Check out that puffed sleeve and sleek silver shine. I don’t think you get more editorially high fashion when it comes to going to the gym. So brilliant. I might be home stretching out those sore muscles and doing yoga in my living room, but honestly, I can’t wait to take this top and style it up for fashion week. Who else thinks it’s a good idea?! I love when athleisure/workout gear can easily transform into something I can take to the street. NO KA’OI, you surprise me every single season.

In the fall and winter, I spend a lot more time in my workout gear. Fall for evening runs. Winter for the gym…my favorite place to keep warm during a snowstorm. Therefore, I am constantly on the hunt for absolutely killer workout gear. Meet NO KA’OI, a super chic workout line that pushed boundaries in their eclectic, unique design. And guess what?! Their new collection just launched at Barneys, my top destination in discovering elevated and  emerging brands. Tracksuits with a rainbow down the side?! Count me in. NOKA’OI does color blocking unlike anyone else out there. See why I’m so obsessed?

The NOKAI’OI microfiber sports bra and leggings fit like a glove. The design accentuates every single curve…and hugs me in all the right places. I like to feel super comfortable and free when I workout…this microfiber fabric is flattering in every single way. I took this poppy orange look down to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade for a little kickboxing session with my trainer at sundown. I’m holding onto this perfect weather, and getting outside and in the fresh air as much as possible. Sweating it out is my way of unwinding at the end of the day. There are many days that I never change out of my workout clothes…I can go from brunch, to pilates, to errands, to walk in the park. The camouflage-striped microfiber jacket, bra, and pant is my ultimate weekend look. It stops traffic, it’s edgy, and I can move in it. I’m dedicating the coming colder months ahead to my body…feeling strong from the inside out. Dressing the part helps me get there.
