Eco-Chic: Water Bottle
One thing I’ve noticed in my days of being an eco-friendly water bottle owner: Most water bottles you find usually are a solid color of some sort, kind of clunky and usually not the chicest thing to carry around with you. Nothing like trying to stay hydrated at an event in LA and pulling out your bright blue water bottle. Or being the girl in Whole Foods that drops her water bottle and the noise is so loud everyone looks to see if someone is ringing a cowbell in the store. But nope! It’s just me being a klutz!
So, I decided to make a change. I recently got the Bronze Gold Cloudy Grey from HYDY. They are a California brand making eco-friendly water vessels that are uniquely chic! Below you’ll see my top 3 reasons to go chic with HYDY.
Hey you,
Today I’m going to talk about reusable water vessels! I’m an eco-friendly girl, and therefore anti-plastic. I try to avoid it at all costs. Living in California makes it is easier than other places because we are so environmentally aware here. I think most people in this day and age all understand that plastic is a plague on tis planet, right? What’s awesome though is so many companies are attempting to combat the use of plastic by making reusable items like water bottles. I’m one of those people who have an assortment of water bottles in an array of sizes. I’ve got ones I use for traveling, the gym, work, my car, home life, and other random occasions. I have a water bottle with me at all times. Because it's super important to stay hydrated throughout the day! Most people don't drink enough water during the day. But staying hydrated can benefit your matabilsom, your skin and so cut more!

Stand Out from the Rest
Ever almost drink out of the wrong bottle at your beach work out class? Or some similar situation. Well with a unique water bottle like this, it eliminates that problem from ever happening. HYDY has lots of different mix and match styles making them a great brand for you to find a unique bottle for yourself. Getting a unique water bottle like this also keeps the boyfriend, girlfriend, the roommates, or your family members from stealing yours. My little brother and I have the same giant silver 40-ounce water bottle and every time I’m home we get so confused as to which one belongs to each of us. Not anymore!
Perfect for Any Occasion
Cause you want to stay hydrated everywhere you go, and you don’t want to use plastic cups and bottles that lots of places offer. You don’t have to be embarrassed about carrying around your giant clunky water bottle at any occasion with this bottle. I go to lots of events, and avoiding plastic is a must, and I also like drinking my own water so that I know it’s high quality. Some places just give you tap water, which often contains high levels of fluoride and other icky stuff. These chic bottles also go great with any outfit, just a little plus!
It’s Quiet
Remember that cowbell noise I mentioned above? Yeah nobody likes that. What’s awesome about the HYDY is that it has a sleeve around the bottom half, so when you drop it, there isn’t a loud ringing noise. Which is great! Because now when you drop your water bottle you don’t risk giving grandma a heart attack!

Styled Yoga Gear? Yes Please!
All right. I’ll admit. I don’t have style… I mean… I know what I like, but when I go shopping, the stuff I pick out to try on looks just like stuff I’ve already got in my closet. I just don’t really know how to shop. However, I can look at a girl with an outfit on and think, YES, I want that look, but putting it together, that’s not my thing. I have lots of stylish friends, and trust me when I hang out with my girls in Beverly Hills, Clair and Jules, I love how they dress me up in their clothes. It makes me feel more confident, and like I actually belong in LA.
All right. I’ll admit. I don’t have style…
I mean… I know what I like, but when I go shopping, the stuff I pick out looks exactly like everything I already own. It's like I'm stuck in a fashion loop. I just don’t really know how to shop. However, I can look at another girl's outfit and think, "YES", I want that look! But putting it together, that’s not my thing. I have lots of stylish friends, and trust me when I hang out with my girls in Beverly Hills, Clair and Jules, I love how they dress me up in their clothes. It makes me feel more confident, and like I actually belong in LA.
With that being said, I decided to take a leap of faith and let a stranger pick clothes out for me, and I must say it rocked. I’m a girl who lives in workout clothes, "stop drop and yoga" is my daily motto. Sometimes you just need a stretch, so why wear anything but yoga pants? But really, I’m super active and I love having the freedom to stretch and bend anyway I want in order to get comfy or flexy in any moment. Anyway, I found this Yoga Box… I received three items. A long-sleeved shirt, which is perfect for winter time. A sports bra, which I am so in love with, and have actually been searching for one like it! And also, a pair of yoga pants that have a look I’ve always admired. The outfit fits together perfectly, and matches everything else I own! The fact that the outfit was hand selected by a stylist gives me so much more confidence that when I leave my house, I look gooooood!
Why I Love Each Piece
The long-sleeved shirt
I would have never bought this at a store or online. "It’s not my thing," in my eyes at least, and my eyes aren’t very stylish so… they don’t know much. Especially because I love this shirt! In first week of opening the box, this shirt was worn six out of the seven days. I loved it. I wore it wine tasting, as a quick cover up for work, on hikes, and for workouts. I love how versatile it is! This shirt is casual and laid back while also being a great active piece.
The Sports Bra
Ok so I’ve been searching for a bra that has a cool back like this forever! They never fit. I’ve got a pretty small bust size, but also kind of a large cup size. So, when I find a sport bra that fits the bust, it usually leaves me hanging out in unflattering ways. Not gym friendly… Needless to say I was psyched on this bra!
The Leggings
I love mesh cut leggings! Whenever I come across them they are always either super expensive or they seem like they will rip open if I have to pull on them at all when getting them on, aka they’re cheap. With this pair though, you can tell that these are high quality leggings, and living in Santa Barbara the mesh is perfect for hot days that turn cold in a moment’s notice.
They Match Everything
Those are the three items they sent, but like I said, it matches so well with the rest of my closet making cute outfits with the selected pieces is easy! The pieces are all really versatile. The sports bra goes great with open backed shirts! The legging are a great color that match everything super well. The cool thing about the Yoga Club Box is that they don't just send you a random box without getting a sense of your style first. You take a short little quiz so that they get a feel for your vibe. This is how they were able to send me three items that totally match everything else in my closet!
Time to be a stylish Yogi!!!
