I have been inspired by two different events recently. One was AGR's new shoes. The other was a somewhat unfortunate incident after my kickboxing workout this morning.
Until now I have been working out in a pair of stretch black pants I bought in Double Bay last year. I'm sure Maggie T didn't intend them to be workout pants, but they felt great to walk, leap and cavort in.
Thank goodness I work out at home, because when I got up from my floor stretches this morning MY PANTS FELL DOWN!
So, this afternoon, it was off to the outlet stores. I now have lovely new adidas shoes - not pink and lavender like AGR's, but baby blue and silver. And a great pair of navy blue workout pants.
When I took Moose for his walk tonight, he could barely keep up. My stride was longer, I was walking taller, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. I just know he wants new shoes too!
Now I may need to do something about the top half of the ensemble. My size 4 Platform tees are so baggy the short sleeves are past my elbows!

Isn't that just the best feeling - when something which has fitted you falls off - I don't think that there is much to equal that feeling - well done !!! Have to love being able to buy new clothes because your others are too big for you !!!
Take care and have a great week !

Funny - but you have to love that feeling of clothes slipping off! Your post this morning gave me a huge grin!
That is so great about your falling pants! Well done for buying nice new shoes and pants.

I have ordered that DVD so will be thinking of you when I try it out at the end of the week. Thanks.
Whooo Hooo for a funkier Sue. And poor Moose not getting any new shoes. Maybe he can chew on your old ones.. I love the pants falling down. It would have been funnier in public, but still made me laugh :) Hope you had a great day today
