Today I'm changing it up a bit and reviewing an active wear brand. But not just any active wear brand. No. This one is so far removed from your run of the mill shopping mall brand its ridiculous! This one spruiks girl power with so much zest it's infectious. This brand bases its sizes around beautiful body shapes and names them after their stable of powerhouse athletes. Oh and you can forget about seeing photoshopped "fit" models wearing clothes from this brand...hells no. There is no mistaking it, this rebellious brand is taking names and taking no shit, oh and if you don't like it...um they couldn't care less...in fact they may even flip you the bird!
This brand is GRRRL Clothing and they are here to change the game!
So yeah I'm a fan. I mean it's hard not to be, just check out their Instagram or better still follow their MFCEO (I'll let you figure that one out), the formidable, hilarious and oh so impressive Kortney Olson. It won't take long for you to jump on the GRRRL Army bandwagon, I promise.
But before you do, let's talk clothes. And by clothes I mean the awesome tee and windbreaker the team at GRRRL sent me to road test.
Here's the low down on the gear...first up the G Windbreaker (shown) is the perfect lightweight item to wear outside. Super soft and comfy, I would wear this to and from the gym on cooler days and definitely while out walking. I wasn't sure if my size estimate was correct but I was happy to say the G Windbreaker fit perfectly. I'm an all over Kortney btw. Side note: GRRRL Clothing sizes are all based on the body measurements of the GRRRL Athletes. You simply apply your upper body and lower body measurements to the body shape athlete closest to you and you're all set.
Next is the Right to Bare Arms fitted tee. OMG I'm a sucker for a badass tee so I LOVED this one on sight but when I held it up I thought it looked like it would be too small. Can you imagine how happy I was when I popped it on and it fit...perfectly. I had big plans for this tee, so it was important that it felt comfy and looked flattering.
