Friday Favorites: Fashion, food and a giveaway
Happy Friday, folks! I’m so looking forward to the weekend. This week seemed particularly long to me and maybe that’s because I kept wishing I was still in Florida with my family for an extended Memorial Day.
This morning, I’m teaching a BODYATTACK class, doing some work and hanging out with Dave in the evening. Tomorrow morning, I’m teaching two classes at Orangetheory Fitness, and we don’t have much on the agenda after that, but I’m sure we’ll go out to dinner for our usual Saturday night outing. On Sunday, I’m excited to be attending an NBA Finals game to watch the Golden State Warriors play at home. Of course, Dave will be there as well, but he’ll be wearing a suit and working, and I’ll be wearing a bright yellow t-shirt and sitting in the nose-bleed seats with a friend. Can’t wait!
This week’s Friday Favorites
But now, it’s time for my recent favorites, and there’s a giveaway in here, so don’t miss it!
My favorite new bag and jacket
Leave it to Dave to give me the best gifts. I’m styling and profiling in my new jacket and bag, which he gave to me last week as a late anniversary gift. Yes, it’s branded gear!
A trendy collared zip-up and a big black tote bag with a ton of pockets and handles make me one happy gal.
First of all, I was in need of a new gym bag and always need new hoodies to wear to the gym and out-and-about, and he chose well with the style and the added logo. I don’t always talk about the fact that I have a blog to my class members and people at the gym (although they seem to find out on their own quite frequently!), so it’s kind of nice to show it off on my sleeve and bag from here on out. Love it all so much!
My favorite new sports bra and a giveaway
This week, I had the lovely opportunity to visit a Title Line retail location in downtown Walnut Creek and get introduced to the store, its products, as well as get fitted for and take home a shiny new sports bra. Title Nine is a women’s activewear company, which has been around for about 25 years, and the name was inspired by the federal law in the U.S., which gives women equal access to sports in schools (among other things).
Title Nine has a great selection of activewear and bras for all sorts of occasions, and the Walnut Creek store is so bright and welcoming.
I hadn’t heard of the company before and loved perusing the colorful items for sale, as well as chatting with the nice associates, one of whom was called a “Bravangelist” for her work helping women find the perfect fitting sports bra for their lifestyles. Title Nine not only sells its own “beautility” (cool word combining beauty and utility, right?) apparel, but also branded apparel from companies they admire, like Prana, Moving Comfort and more.
Shown above is the “barbell” rating, which Title Nine gives its bras based on their support-level. And my sports bra selection, this Form First bra by Moving Comfort, in red and black with an adjustable back. Those colors? Why they are BODYPUMP colors of course!
The bra experts at Title Nine want to help more women find the perfect fitting bra, and they are hosting “FitFest” events at their 23 retail locations across the U.S.. You can head to the website to find out if there is a FitFest near you. I think this is a great concept, because after getting fitted for my sports bra, I learned that you should always buy bras on the tighter side, because sports bras and regular bras will always stretch out a bit. Who knew? Oh and can you believe that apparently 80 percent of women are currently wearing the wrong size sports bra? The humanity!
GIVEAWAY ALERT!!
The lovely ladies at Title Nine have offered a free sports bra and personalized fitting to one A Lady Goes West reader. If you live within driving distance of a Title Nine retail location, you’ll be able to head into one for a bra-fitting appointment. If you don’t live near one, you can order a free bra of your choice over the phone. This is open to people in the U.S. only. To enter, simply leave a comment on this post (and there are ways for additional entries as well, detailed below). I will choose a winner on Monday night. And fellas, you can enter too, if you’d like to pass along your spoils to a lady in your life.
My favorite new food product
Switching gears from fashion to food — More veggies in every smoothie without overfilling my NutriBullet
? Yes, please. I was very intrigued when the folks at PINES International, reached out to me about trying their products, which are powders and tablets containing nutritious vitamins and minerals found in vegetables. They sent me a little bottle of PINES Wheat Grass to get started, which I’ve added to my smoothies all week. Just one little teaspoon of this powder contains the same amount of nutrients as a helping of deep-green, rich leafy vegetables in just 10 calories. While I haven’t tried the powder alone in water, I can tell you that it barely adds a taste to smoothies, so it’s like sneaking in extra nutrients.
Here’s a look at the PINES Wheat Grass Powder and a recent green smoothie bowl I added it to for breakfast. Don’t be scared of the green!
I love the company’s motto — “Keep it Simple. Keep it Clean. Keep it Green.,” and I also like that PINES is so focused on helping people be healthy with cost-efficient products. All of the powders are gluten free, raw, non-GMO, USDA certified organic and sealed with the oxygen removed to give them a long shelf-life, and one 3.5 ounce bottle goes for less than $15 for nearly 30 servings.
I’d say the best part about using a wheat grass powder is that you can bring it with you when traveling to get in some extra greens on-the-go by adding it to your water, smoothies or food. If you’re interested, you can buy PINES products at thousands of health food stores across the U.S. and in 20 other countries — just find a retail location near you by visiting this store locator. Thanks PINES for introducing me to wheat grass.

Questions of the day
What’s something that has been making you happy lately?
What are you up to this weekend?
Something that’s making me smile is that my hubby and I just found out we’re pregnant 🙂 Lets just say there’s been a permanent grin on my face all week.
This weekend we’re taking a little road trip to visit my in-laws and once there I have a feeling it’ll be a relaxing weekend which is exactly what I need.
TGIF and enjoy your weekend 🙂
Oh my goodness, Catherine!! That’s AWESOME!! Is this your first?? yay for you two!!! 🙂 Have a wonderfully relaxing weekend mom-to-be!
Yes, it’s our first and we are so stoked 🙂
That’s wonderful, Catherine!!! So happy for you!
LOVE the new bag and jacket! So cute! Have a great weekend.
Thanks, Susie! Right back at ya!! 🙂
I have always wanted blog branded gear! What a thoughtful present from Dave. That sports bra looks amazing. You know what it’s like to need something that will keep everything supported for long days at the gym. I have really been looking for a good new bra brand that I can redo my collection with. Big thanks to everyone involved in the giveaway! Hope you have a great weekend and enjoy your time at the game!
Well then good luck to you in this giveaway, Jenna!! And I hope you have a wonderful day and weekend. TGIF! 🙂
Oh my gosh, that jacket and bag combo is the sweetest. Awesome work, Dave! I hope I get to see them in person later this summer! xo
I hope you do too, Heather!! Working on that right now hehe! Have a lovely weekend! 🙂
Love that jacket and bag, what a thoughtful gift! One thing that has been making me happy recently is planning my wedding! I also follow you on Instagram 🙂
Hi Ashley!! Yay for wedding planning! When’s the big day? Hope you have a wonderful weekend! 🙂 Thank you for entering!
April 30, 2016! Fun fact, my fiancee’s name is also Dave so we’re another Ashley and Dave 🙂 Thank you! TGIF and have a great weekend 🙂
No way!! I love it! For a while some friends called us “Dashley” but then it morphed into “The Pitts” of course, our last name. Great names though, and they make a good monogram too heheh!
Ha! We’re referred to as “Dashley” or “Dash” as well. Too funny!
AWESOME!
I’ve heard such great things about Title Nine (and love the name!!) but haven’t been able to check it out yet. Good sports bras are so hard to find sometimes! As a well-endowed lady (haha!) I found myself wearing 2 sports bras for high impact workouts (BodyAttack, etc.) way too often! I love the VS bras, but would love to try a new one as I’m always on the lookout for a new one that will hold the girls in place during a workout and not knock me out 😉 Thanks for the awesome giveaway! Have a great weekend! 🙂
Hi Lindsay! Oh yes, I need the high-impact bras for teaching BODYATTACK of course! SOOO much jumping in that class! 🙂 Thank you for entering and saying hello and GOOD LUCK in the giveaway!
Of course! I’ve recently found your blog and I LOVE it!! 🙂
Yay!! Thank you so much, Lindsay!! 🙂
I recently moved home for the summer (from college) and running on my old paths is making me more than happy :).
It’s great to be home, Molly! Enjoy your summer break and running. Thanks again for saying hello! 🙂
Followed on instagram 🙂
Yay, thanks, Molly! TGIF to you! 🙂
What a great gift! They’re both so cute and the jacket looks great on you. Hope you have a fun time at the game… Can’t believe how dominant they were in OT! Fun game to watch 🙂
Hi Gretchen! I love that you’re watching the Dubs in the Finals! Quite the OT! Glad I made it home to watch that, because I had been at a blogger event for the first part of the game. And TGIF to you!! 🙂
One thing making me happy lately is the warmer weather- yay for running outside! 🙂
YES! It’s great to soak up some Vitamin D while you exercise! Enjoy it, Annmarie! 🙂
PS. LOVE the new jacket and bag, how awesome to have your own branded gear! Also, already liked you on FB + followed on IG. 🙂
Thanks, Annmarie! TGIF to you pretty lady! 🙂
Love the new branded gear girl! Dave did good! Definitely checking out if Title Nine will be in Phoenix! You’d be so proud of me. I finally found a gym that offers BodyPump. Now I just need to make time for a class. Happy weekend!
You make my DAY! I hope you try BODYPUMP, Megan! Let me know if you have any questions before-hand!! 🙂
One thing that has been making me happy is seeing all the little goslings growing up around my work. We have a pond on campus so there are at least 30 little ones. It’s pretty crazy how fast the grow!
That’s so adorable, Amanda! yay! TGIF! 🙂
PS- I already liked you on Facebook and follow you on Instagram.
Thanks, lady!
Wow, what an AWESOME gift from Dave!! I love the jacket and bag so much! I also love Title Nine– when I used to be a Wellness Coordinator I would shop there all of the time because their clothes were super comfortable but also stylish and sophisticated. Have a great weekend!
Hi Katie! Well I’m totally late to the Title Nine party then, because I hadn’t heard of them. Glad you’re a fan! And a great big happy Friday to you!! 🙂

Ah that jacket and bag are such a cute gift! My bf got me a bracelet with my blog name/mantra on it for Christmas that I love!
Oh how sweet of your BF! Love the idea of a mantra bracelet! Have a lovely Friday and weekend, Lauren! 🙂
No big plans this weekend, although my boyfriend did inform me of a “surprise” coming my way Saturday night! The amazing weather and sunshine after a few days of torential downpours has really been incredible. Hope you have a great Friday!
Hi Jamie! Ohhhh don’t you just love surprises?? Enjoy that! And yay for clear skies after the rain. Sadly, we need some rain here in drought-stricken California though hahah. Happy Friday!

What’s been making me happy lately: My mom is turning 60 this weekend, so my sister and I have spent the last 2 months getting all of her friends and family to write her a letter and send us old pictures to put into a book for her. It’s been such a fun way to see how many lives she’s impacted over the years!
Oh my gosh, Susie! You are your sister are sooooo thoughtful. My Mom actually did something similar for me for a recent birthday and had people send me letters about memories we had together! I love that you did that, and your Mom will LOVE IT so much! Have a lovely time giving her the gift! 🙂 TGIF!
One thing making me happy lately is the amazingly perfect weather here in Nashville! We had several gloomy rainy days, but the past 2 days have been sunny and warm. I love it!
Nice, Anna! I love to hear that! I went to Nashville for a quick work trip years ago, but haven’t had the chance to really explore. I’d love to check it out some time. Enjoy your sunny and warm weekend! 🙂 TGIF!

Dave is an excellent gift giver! So cool to have your stuff logo-ed.
Making me happy lately are morning smoothie bowls topped with spring berries. Simple goodness… and a nice change from crappy European breakfasts. Why is everything amazing over there except breakfast?

Ahhh! I’ve been considering a Title Nine bra for when I take up running again in a week or two. I need to Google Title Nine locations, but I’ve been on their website non-stop the past week trying to decide on a favorite sports bra 🙂 Also, how fun that Dave had your brand placed on a bag and a hoodie – What a great guy!
Hi Becky, You should totally try to get fitted for one. They’ve got an excellent selection. And yay for running again in a few weeks. It’s awesome you’ve been bouncing back so quickly into feeling good! TGIF!
Great idea for a giveaway!
Something that’s making me happy lately is grilling with my dad. Nothing’s better than fresh air and sunshine, sizzling food, and some one-on-one time with him.
Hi Jess! Oh that’s a wonderful thing for sure. Family time and grilling? Yes, please! Hope you have a lovely weekend! 🙂
Lately the SUNSHINE has been making me so, so happy! The Bay Area went through a major cloudy spell in May, but the sun is back!
I know, Annie! I love to see the sun shining too! Have a fabulous weekend. Go soak up some Vitamin D! 🙂
I would love a new sports bra!

The end of “May Gray” in SoCal is making me happy…more hours to play in the sunshine.

Just the warm weather has been enough to make me happy lately, but I’ve also got some really exciting collaborations going on with work that could lead to some pretty cool events in the near future!

Love the branded gear!
The thing that’s been making me happy is working through my first Whole30. I’m on Day 14, feeling great, and loving focusing on nutritious, whole foods that energize me. (And then treating myself to new workout gear instead of food rewards!)
Hi Melissa! Awesome work! I’ve always wanted to try Whole30 but have never taken the jump yet. So smart of you to reward yourself with new gear. Best of luck finishing the second half! Have a great night! 🙂
