Mode Snow

With fall just around the corner, it is time to prepare those legs for the riding days. This past month I have been working out for this weekend's MUD DAY just outside of Lyon, France. If you got or get a chance to take part in this event it is just insanely fun, and it gets dirty! It consists of 13KM with about 22 different military style obstacles. Picture: Pierre Alessandri You race with your team, there is no leaving anyone behind and we make it together to the finish line! It is my first time in this event, and from the pictures it seems that only a few girls sign up. But isn't mud good for your skin? For this post, I made a selection of ROXY's fall/winter sports wear . I love their sports lines and they get better with every new collection. It is one of the best combinations of style, colour and technical details you can find amongst board sports inspired brands out there. As they evolved into rock climbing and yoga, I now have Roxy for every sport I practic...

Spring/Summer lines often include items that are appropriate for fall. And the best part is that they are on sale at this time of the year and summer was too hot to even consider buying them any earlier. Let's travel to Sweden and check out what CLWR (or COLOUR WEAR) still has in store for us before their Fall/Winter line drops. Quick, enjoy the goods on sale now! Swedish are surrounded by nature and their lifestyle is often very much in sync with the environment. CLWR designs functional garments that bridge the gap between the wild outdoors and modern urban culture. Sporty and stylish all in one. Here is a selection... yes, a whole lotta leopard prints! Let's start with my fav, the KNIGHT HOOD @46€ instead of 65. If like me you're a Medium, we missed the deal, snif! Up next, the PUNK HOOD @53€ instead of 75. It features a button closure instead of a zip.  Leopard LEGGINGS ! CLWR has them for 13€ and you still have Small and Medium available as well as ...

It's online! Picture Organic Clothing Fall/Winter collection... Let's check out a selection of their environmentally-friendly designs. Picture is a French company, a shooting star that has rapidly gained recognition and praise among the French snow community. It has gone long ways since its creation in 2008 by three French riders and is now present in the surf, skate and art scenes. Check out their story  here . So what is so special about them? Picture was created around a key concern: our environment . Not only is their gear made from recycled resources, but they even created a recycle program for snow jackets, skateboards and even the in-store signage, which they turn into shopping bags! So what's in store? Picture this ladies: Show your love for the mountain with the DELMONT  Tee featuring a beautiful graphic of a pine tree held by loving and caring hands... ....and the MORTON  Tee with a majestic deer head, both in Black and 100% Organic Cotton. ...

Working out in the 80s must have been so much fun! Spandex, leotards, leg warmers and waist belts... Do you recognise Heather Locklear above? Well... I vote for Kate Hudson as 2010's icon of what is now coined as athleisure in this blog post! Check out Fabletics , the brand she co-founded and that offers a range of incredibly functional AND stylish gym wear for all types of work outs or to wear on a daily basis--they are so comfy.  Here is Kate rocking her pick of Fabletics outfits.  Below, two of her favorites: On the left the Riviera outfit the Taylor Tank II and the Salar Capri in black. And on the right, the Bermuda Tunes outfit with the SoleTank and Salar Crop in black. The neatest thing about Fabletics is their variety of prints on incredibly comfy designs. You know how sometimes you find a pair of pants or a bra that fits so wonderfully you want to order the same model in every color you like? Well with Fabletics the choices in prints...
