In observance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we are off school today. A three-day weekend is always nice! I get to sleep in this morning; any bets on if I’ll make it past 6:00 a.m.? Doubtful. Waking up without an alarm is always nice, so I’m not complaining even though I know I’ll still be up early. I’ve got a workout date planned with my friend who just joined my gym. Working out with friends is awesome.
This weekend was pretty low-key. On Saturday, I knocked out 30 minutes on the stair beast for some cardio before sitting in my hair stylist’s chair for a few hours during the afternoon. I wanted to take a bikram class on Sunday like last weekend, but I also didn’t want to have to wash my hair the day after I got it done. I can do a low-key workout and not wash my hair, but bikram is a must-shower-must-wash-hair kind of workout. Major sweatfest. And after the work that Preston Salon Spa did on my hair, I was willing to take a rest day from the gym. #sacrifices
Hey, part of healthy living is knowing when to take rest days, keeping your hair healthy, and being ok with not being a gymaholic every day of the week. (As long as you go on a fairly regularly basis like I do!) And yet another part of healthy living is protecting your eyes from the super strong sun. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel like the sun is brighter in the winter than the summer! Maybe itz just because we get less of it so when itz out it feels intensified? Maybe?
Lucky for me, Sunglasses Shop sent me a sweet pair of Oakley Women Sweet Spot Sunglasses. They are from the latest collection of Oakley Sunglasses and are a perfect balance of style and sports. They even came in a pretty, sturdy case which is awesome for throwing them in my purse or gym bag and keeping the shades safe!
Some facts about the Oakley Women Sweet Spot Sunglasses:
- Three-point fit: eliminates pressure point tension during sunglasses wear.
- Lightweight, stress-resistant O Matter® frame: won’t weigh you down.
- Awesome UV protection: (100% of UVA / UVB / UVC & harmful blue light up to 400nm) provided by Plutonite® lens material.
How do they look? Well, why don’t you tell me?
MARVELOUS! (Which is perfect for Katie at Healthy Diva Life’s Marvelous Monday!) I love the look of oversized sunglasses, but often worry that they’ll overtake my face. I don’t believe that’s the case with these shades. Honestly, I think they’re perfect. I have a pretty narrow face, so the fact that these stay on and still feel comfortable are impressive. While I love wearing these as a fashion statement, when I start running again I’ll take them on a jog. I’m confident that they’ll stay on, provide protection from the sun, and not be a bother during my run. They’re stylish AND sporty! Ready for the best part of this post?
