Work It Girl! Sketchers Shape Ups Fitness Sneaker

I have a love hate relationship with working out. On one hand once I start I can't stop on the other it's such a drag. I wanted to try out the new Sketchers Shape-Ups for a while and our friends at What A Pair sent us a pair to try a month ago. I throw on my pair whenever I have to run simple errands like buying groceries, going to the bank etc and I have noticed a difference in lower body in the past month of wearing them. I also wear them one the elliptical and stair-master and can really feel the burn. I have been raving about these shoes to all of my friends and family and everyone who has purchased them (including my sister who is trying to lose her baby weight) have seen the results. So now I dare you to take the challenge and try them out for yourself. What A Pair offers free shipping on the Shape Ups just use the code SHAPES at check out. Stay fit and healthy!

Jump On it… Harajuku Style

Fashion is about trends, but style is about making it your own. Japanese Harajuku girls are notoriously known for their coveted individuality. Want a piece of Tokyo inspired glam? Buy a pair of Jump “Sonar” sneakers. These sneakers are not only my personal favorite, but were also seen on celebrity comedian Sarah Silverman. Wear them with a denim skirt and tube socks for that cute, athletic look. The wedge is extremely comfortable, and is perfect for petite girls who want some extra height. You can even wear them with your favorite pair of jeans when you’re just not in the mood for strappy sandals. These shoes come in various sizes and four different colors (beige, brown, white, and the ultra popular black). If the shoe fits, why not buy it in every color?

Jump sneakers are only one brand that you can find on the What A Pair! website. What a Pair! is a wonderful place to find ballet flats, sneakers, boots, and sandals. They even have “vegan” shoes for the chic, yet environmentally conscious woman. With a wide variety of styles and prices ranges, there is definitely something for everyone. Remember that you can never have enough shoes; they add versatility to your wardrobe.
