Lovely Leggings

Darlings, as you probably already know, CC is a yoga and Pilates instructor, so she is super excited to introduce you to Carbon38, a fabulous online shopping site stocking the most amazing workout wear from all of CC's favorite designers, including Onzie, Lucas Hugh and Stella McCartney, to name just a few!

Here's a bit about the shop and its founders from the website:

"At Carbon38, we believe in fashion that suits our modern, active lives, which is why we scour the globe to curate the hottest, most hard-working sportswear labels that make style statements from the gym to the streets and beyond. Our panel of fitness and lifestyle experts test-drives each product, ensuring its quality and utility. We'll leave the styling up to you.

About the Founders:

Katie Warner Johnson and Caroline Gogolak are no strangers to spandex. The classically-trained dancers met in ballet class before reconnecting in the dining halls at Harvard University. Warner Johnson has since emerged as one of the nation's most-chronicled trainers, shaping the bodies of Emmy Rossum and Demi Moore. Gogolak's expertise in fashion led to positions in the corporate offices of Yves Saint Laurent and Intermix. (On weekends, she became a certified yoga teacher.) Along with their Los Angeles-based team, Warner Johnson and Gogolak aim to deliver the most directional activewear-minded fashion on the market."

CC hopes you enjoy these lovely leggings, all available at carbon38.com.

Wonderful Workout Wear from Montiel!

Darlings, as you (probably) already know, CC is a yoga and Pilates instructor, so she is super excited to introduce you to Montiel, a fabulous range of athletic wear in performance materials and cool colors at affordable prices. Here's a bit about the company from the website:
"We started Montiel in 2013, with the goal of creating a better workout staple for women. By better, we mean higher quality material, more thoughtful design and a healthier price than the competition. We will be the first to admit, there is a lot of good workout gear out there, but good just wasn’t cutting it!   
One year later, we are thrilled to see our pieces being worn by so many different types of women at yoga studios, gyms, bars, restaurants, festivals and coffee shops from Los Angeles to New York and everywhere in between.
Like we said, we are BIG on quality. We believe in simplicity and elegance, and most of the time, think less is more. These values are reflected in our strategically small, but ever expanding line that emphasizes excellence over volume.
More importantly, we strongly believe that quality is an extension to our customer service. If you have an issue, question or comment you will be dealing directly with a human in southern California, who will more than likely make your day. We know that the best customer is a happy customer and we intend to keep it that way."
CC hopes you enjoy this wonderful workout wear! All items at montiel.com.
