Holiday Gift Guide - Review: Get Waisted

 Be Sporty, Be Safe, Be Smart

A stylish alternative to bulky, unattractive fanny-packs and cumberson bags.

Get Waisted is perfect for anyone with an active lifestyle. With a pocket to hold a smartphone, two zippered compartments, and an outlet for easy headphone access, the belt keeps your hands free so you can focus on your exercise. The sturdy spandex keeps all your possessions in place, whether you're at the beach or lifting weights at the gym.

The Get Waisted is the perfect vacation accessory. The sleek, fashionable belt zips around your waist, and keeps all your most important possessions close to you so you always know where it is. It's so thin, you can wear it under your clothes, so you never have to sacrifice your glam. Set your mind at ease knowing that your most valuable possessions are always safely by your side with the Get Waisted -- at the beach, on the boat, or just relaxing at home.

You're a busy person, so work smarter, not harder. Keep your important things accessible at all times so you can focus on more important things. Get Waisted is manufactured with high-quality, washable spandex fabric that's strong yet lightweight, making it a perfect balance of comfort, style, and flexibility. Its durable construction means it can keep up with everything you do. Fabulous!

Offered in four colors (sea foam, turquoise, hot pink, and black) and 3 sizes.  Available at Glam Sparkle n' Glitz.

Our Thoughts
One of the reasons I'm not terribly fond of leggings is there are no pockets!  I always need pockets. I kind of wish all clothing came with pockets!

Enter the Get Waisted: You can see pretty much everything you need to see here: zipper for easy on/off, plus a pocket for the front and a pocket for the back, one of which has a grommet for the cable for your headphones.

This outfit I recently wore to a wedding reception; it's one of my favorites for being dressy, yet stretchy and comfortable for the night - a pretty floral/paisley V-neck blouse paired with a long black skirt. But it has NO POCKETS! Which means I had to drag a purse with me everywhere to hold my phone and my keys.  What you can't see in the photo above, is I'm actually wearing the Get Waisted.  It hides pretty well!

Here of course I'm showing you the Get Waisted, and how it easily pairs with the skirt for a seamless fit. 

No need to save it for a special occasion - make it work for every outfit you wear - whether you're out doing something more athletic and want a place to carry your phone and keys, or just don't want to be weighed down with a purse when you really only need the essentials - your phone, keys, ID, maybe a credit card.  And being available in four very pretty colors, you can add a nice pop of color to any outfit.

When the weather turns warmer (and I won't be wearing a big coat! I mean, it is cold here in Minnesota during the winter. LOL.) the Get Waisted will come in very handy for my walks with the dog - I always have at least my phone and keys on me.  We walk the nature trails in town and the nearby state park; one of my hobbies is taking nature photos so having a good safe place to put my phone with easy access when I want it is a plus.

Holiday Gift Guide - Review: RaesWear

RaesWear

Go Hands Free!

While on business, Leigh Cockram struggled with the lack of a safe and comfortable storage spot for her numerous personal items (hotel key, ID, money, iphone) on her run. Inspired to create a solution, Leigh imagined a 360 degree waistband storage pocket with front and back openings for easy access. She spent the next two years designing the concept, testing fabrics and finally patenting the ultimate Hands-Free waistband pocket.

Designed with high quality, high performance, luxuriously soft fabrics in bold prints and solids, RaesWear is a simple but brilliant hands-free clothing concept. No more ugly, bouncy fanny packs; chafing, sweaty arm bands; scratchy zippered pockets; or, worse, hiding items before a run/race.

Our Thoughts

My favorite type of workout is walking the dog. And when you've got your hands full with the leash and the inevitable poop bag, well, you don't really have your hands free to carry anything else.  I always take at the very least (besides the bags!) a set of keys and my phone. My phone is a constant companion not for the music or texting or anything like that, but because I love to take nature photos while we walk the trails in our town and the nearby state park. 

This right here is what RaesWear is all about: the waist pockets! It even fits my iPhone 6S+ with ease.  There's a pocket in the front and a pocket in the back. Perfect for your ID, a credit card, a small set of keys, your phone, or any other small item you want to stuff in there.

I do have a couple pairs of yoga pants but hate putting anything in the side pockets because #1, it's bulky, #2, the weight of my phone in the pocket will eventually pull the waist down a bit - then I'm constantly hiking them up.

I am LOVING the pants from RaesWear - they are lightweight and very comfortable and very stretchy!  There isn't a sizing chart available on their website, so I ordered a size Small given that's pretty typical for me for athletic wear.  While they are quite form fitting in the thigh, I don't think I'd want to order a bigger pair instead because the waist is perfectly comfortable and I wouldn't want that any looser.

Here you can see the pocket opening in the front.

 And here you can see the pocket opening in the back.

Loving the fit - so comfy!!

I love the fashion aspect of these pants, too. Pair them with a tank top for more athletic endeavors, or throw on a pretty tunic for a dressier look  - the best part is that you don't need to bring a purse for the essentials thanks to the waist pockets!  RaesWear has sooo many different clothing options - I love the Skapris! 

I will get more use out of these pants next spring because right now, it's December in Minnesota.  LOL. The winters are pretty cold for outdoor activities, but these will be great outdoor activewear for me in warmer weather.
