NOTE: Green Apple Active provided yoga gear for this post. All opinions are completely my own.
When I found out that I would be able to participate in several yoga-themed events while I was in Chicago this weekend, I immediately thought about what to wear. As a fitness instructor, I wear workout clothes a minimum of 4 days a week, if not more. So what brand do I think of when I think about vegan organic non-toxic yoga clothes? Green Apple Active Wear. I can’t remember where I first learned about them — either from another green blogger or when our Pilates studio started selling the brand — but I fell in love with the über-softness and the unique vintage style immediately. I was so excited to be wearing Green Apple Active Gear at several yoga related events in Chicago.
First off was the Yasso Yoga event in Wrigley Park on Friday morning. I just loved doing yoga in this outdoor venue with the grass beneath our feet. The weather there was perfect, very near 70 degrees. There was a light mist, but it felt great!
When I left this event, I was so comfy in my Green Apple gear, and it looked so nice that I just went straight to the conference for the day in my yoga clothes! Talk about clothing with workout-to-daily-life transitional ability! While I was at the conference, I met with a PR rep regarding an upcoming project and she was kind enough to snap this photo.
Later that same evening, I attended an EcoFab50 event at a local yoga studio. No actual workout this time, but some great henna and fabulous green brands that I was excited to meet. I just threw on some black skinny jeans with the Green Apple top and I was good to go!
When I went to get onto my bus for the 19 hour bus ride home (this is an experience I don’t really want to talk about…), I put my Green Apple duds back on and wore them the whole trip. It was definitely the most comfortable part of my bus ride.
