Here to share some fun from the weekend and the long awaited DOUBLE giveaway winners!
Got to try some quality activewear…
YMX was nice enough to send me one of their new long sleeve patterned shirts! I had no idea what color or style I’d be receiving so I was really excited when I saw the pretty purple color that it was….love the flowery designs too. But with all active gear, looks are great, but functionality is what’s most important. As is wearability! This shirt has both those components covered.
Not only is the shirt incredibly well made (I wore it in situations a few times where I thought it would get snagged without a doubt…Ella was clawing me like a maniac!), but it’s so comfortable! It’s a made of a very light, soft, and silky fabric that is breathable and not constricting at all. I also love that it can be worn for a number of different activities! It kept me dry and cool while working out…but also served as a great base layer for wearing in a casual environment (it looks really nice for activewear!) on a colder night.
I am excited I got this shirt just before my trip to the Philippines (I LEAVE WEDNESDAY! AHHHH!) because of the UPF protection is provides! I had been looking through my closet for a light long sleeve shirt to bring just in case it gets cool sometimes or I need to protect my skin, and thankfully YMX came to the rescue!
I will say that the price tag on this shirt is a little out of my budget (close to 100 dollars). So I don’t think I would be able to purchase this shirt on my own…but if you did have the means, you’d definitely getting your money’s worth because of its high quality. One of these shirts by YMX would be a worthwhile investment and would last a lot longer than some cheap workout gear.
Big thanks YMX for letting me try one of their products!
