Incredible New Workout Clothes Line: Ellie

[UPDATE: It's not just me! A friend came into town, wore the Catch Me If You Can top for two days straight, then flew home with the top to Aspen, promising to send me money and join Ellie ... she even said what we're all thinking and afraid to say ... it's better than that other [...]

Fair Isle

Love it. Nothing says winter like Fair Isle print. Not just for sweaters! fair isle by lifeinaustin In fact, knit pjs, skirt, or keds are our fave picks … and the only sweaters have modern spins on the classic print.

Compliment or Insult: Shopping Edition

That’s right, even though I’ve been working out at the infamous Aspen Club, I’ve been steadfastly disappointed by how used to me the gym-goers appear to have gotten. Aside from the occasional creeper just staring at me throughout my entire workout, nothing of note has happened, no more Gym Gems or Compliment or Insults. How boooooring, [...]
