This past week, David and I checked out this year's first Madison Night Market! This is the second year that Madison has put on a summer night market and I think this year's is even better than the last :) I always joke that my only hobby is eating, so this night market was perfect. I picked up some homemade chips, poke', and a giant waffle cone of ice cream - YUM. One thing I love about Madison is that it's small enough to feel like a cozy community but big enough to always have exciting new food to try :) 

I absolutely love summer nights, but oftentimes, it can be hard to dress for them - I never know if I'm going to be too hot or too cold! This summer, I've been loving the combination of loose high-waisted jeans and a simple crop top because I find that it's the perfect outfit for nights when you don't know how cold it's going to feel once the sun goes down! My favorite thing to pair with crop tops is a colorful wrapped headband to keep things bright and summery :) 

Hope you are having a wonderful start to your summer! Thanks for reading! :)

Working out is always a little bit of a struggle (for lazy people like me! 😛) but I find that having a handful of go-to workout essentials makes it just a tad easier. I'm a huge fan of bright colors and workout gear is the best place to show off all of your favorite bright colors at the same time! There are tons of expensive workout brands out there that want to make you think that you need to spend hundreds of dollars on fancy workout gear but some of my favorite workout clothes come from places like Marshall's and Forever 21 - you can truly find great workout gear without having to break the bank! Below are some of my favorite workout essentials!

Bright Leggings! 

I wear leggings pretty much 24/7 but I reserve my especially colorful ones for my workouts! One of my favorite places to get leggings is Marshall's because they always have tons of colorful leggings from about a bazillion different brands. If you're looking for more trendy leggings, Fabletics is also a great place to look! 

Comfortable Shoes

I'm pretty frugal when it comes to workout clothes but shoes are the one area where I think it's worth the splurge! Nike is a great brand for shoes in tons of different colors & styles that are also super comfortable. I'm always able to find great deals on Nikes at outlet malls, too! 

Fun Hair Ties

This might seem like a very minor thing, but I find that having fun hair ties makes working out in the early morning that much easier! Lately, I've been loving colorful ribbon style hair ties and old school scrunchies to throw up my hair :) 

A Cozy Sweatshirt

There are a lot of fancy workout zip-ups out there, but I've found that a cozy sweatshirt often does the trick for my workouts! I get cold pretty easily, so as soon as my workout slows down, I always feel a little chilly! Crewneck sweatshirts are my all-time favorite. They are super affordable (most of mine are $10 off of Amazon!) and come in every color of the rainbow! 

A Water Bottle w/Straw

Last, but not least, a water bottle! I find that water bottles with straws tend to be best for workouts because re-hydrating during a workout is super important, but if you're bouncing on a bike or taking a pit stop between downward and upward dog, it's simply easier to take a swig of water out of a straw. Being the uncoordinated person that I am, if I don't have a straw, I usually end up pouring half of the bottle down my shirt instead!

Hope you all are having a wonderful start to spring! Thanks for stopping by! :)

I don’t know if I’ve ever talked about how much I love H&M on here yet, but it’s never too late to start - I am obsessed! They had an amazing post-christmas sale which means I couldn’t resist grabbing a couple of their cozy sweaters 😃 If you are looking for basic, comfy sweaters that are affordable but actually still high quality enough to keep you warm, then you need to check these out! I picked up this fluffy burgundy one and I can’t get enough of the comfy-ness. 😃 Especially with the cold, snowy winters in Wisconsin, that little bit of coziness does not go unnoticed! What are your favorite pieces for staying cozy in the winter?
