As if Portlandia didn't already make my heart ache enough for Oregon, yesterday I watched Oiselle's Olympic Trials fashion show video.
The after-party featured MC Hammer and his son Booby. Side note: that's a bold move to name your son Booby. If he needs another cool idea, he could name his next son Vuhjayjay or Ladybiz. You're welcome, Hammer. But seriously, I would have given an appendage to be on that dance floor. My favorite Hammer song is the You Got to Pray Just to Make It Today song. When I lived in Russia, I spent approximately a million hours doing the running man while singing this song in my apartment. Don't ask.
Moving on.
I love the new Bum Wraps. Do I detect a cute little slit in the skirt? Need it. When can I order it?

Also, I think I saw some patterned Rogas in there. Love.

Did I mention that I love the Olympics more than cake? That's a lot. Unfortunately I haven't been up on watching every single trial that I wanted to watch (oh, that's all of them) because I rarely turn on the TV at home. Don't get me wrong -- I'm a media junkie (i.e. this whole blog biz-nass). But we only have one TV in our house, and we have to walk down a possibly-haunted set of stairs to get to it. That's on purpose so that we don't overdo the media. I will gladly run a marathon, but put a quad-busting set of stairs between me and a TV program and forget about it.
But 17 days from now (July 27th!), don't even think about calling me
The only thing that could make my Olympic experience better would be representing in this tee every single day of the Olympics. Only lifting it from my shoulders for washing.
Oiselle has some super comfy tees. In my welcome to the team kit, I got this shirt.
Is one of your Olympic dreams representing in an awesomely soft Oiselle shirt too? If it's not already, there are still 17 days to reprioritize.
Thanks to Oiselle, one of you will get your color and size choice of the London Calling tee, for the men or the women!

I'll pick a winner (using a random number generator) on Friday the 13th, my luckiest day/number combo. Not sure what it has done for me in life to have a lucky number, but at least I have it JIC.
I am an ambassador for team Oiselle, and I originally sought them out because fell in love with their products, simply hip and comfy. As an ambassador, I get some free clothing and clothing discounts. This giveaway was my brain child, and Oiselle agreed to provide the product to the winner. I receive no cash money compensation for representing Oiselle, but I do get lots of good vibes. And, hey, that's worth more than a bank deposit. Sometimes.
How are their shorts? I am getting fed up with my Nike tempos and am looking to switch. :)
ReplyDeleteYou should try the Rogas. They're stretchy all over and fit butts great!
DeleteBut I am pretty in love with those orange marathon shorts that I'm wearing in the picture up there. They have two zip pockets (side and back).
DeleteI just ordered some Rogas. Can't wait to squeeze my butt into them!
DeleteThe Olympic event that I must watch is ANYTHING with Sanya Richards Ross. She is amazing!

ReplyDeleteI love that t-shirt....The one event I have to watch is gymnastics. I know, pretty cliche, and I am not even a gymnast (nor ex-gymnast), but I am always amazed at what they can make their bodies do.
ReplyDeleteMe too! It's always been my must-watch event.

ReplyDeleteThe one event for me is the women's marathon. I have the biggest run crush on the entire team, Kara, Shalane and Desi. And I just love the Olympics. Last summer we went to the Olympic training center in Colorado Springs and it was amazing and yes I am a huge nerd, embrace it!

ReplyDeleteIs it weird that the one event I love to watch is the torch lighting ceremony? I was a little girl living in L.A. when the Olympics blew through there in the 80's. It was quite the event and I remember all the excitement over carrying the torch. I love it!
