Top: Gap // Shorts: Old Navy/Gap // Shoes: Nike // Sunglasses: Oscar de la Renta

The rain has finally stopped (at least for a while) in Dallas, and I can finally get back outside. One of my favorite ways to stay active in the summer is walking my golden retriever, Scout. It is nice to take a break from the gym, get some sun, and enjoy the company of my puppy. I never realize how good of an arm workout it is to walk my dog (or in this case have him walk me) until we get back and my arms feel like jello!

I basically live in athletic clothes when I can, but I hate spending a small fortune on clothes I plan to sweat in. I recently discovered Gap’s GapFit line of athletic clothes that they offer at a very reasonable price. I love this mesh-stripe racerback top so much that I ended up buying it in every color. I also love their patterned shorts, because they add to my otherwise boring grey color scheme. I have never owned a pair of tennis shoes that were not white, maybe some day I will branch out, but until then I am loving my grey and white Nikes. For more affordable athletic clothes, check out Athlea, Fabletics, H&M, and GapFit.  xoxo
