Why Fleece Is My Go-To Layer for Cozy, Confident Days

When the weather cools down and my schedule gets busier, there’s one thing I always reach for: fleece. It’s that perfect mix of comfort, warmth, and effortless style that works whether I’m working from home, running errands, or heading out for a casual day with the kids.

These days, fleece isn’t just about staying warm — it’s about creating that good vibes feeling wherever you go. And when it comes to pieces that feel soft, look polished, and last a long time, I always find myself browsing the adidas fleece collection.

Why Fleece Is a Must-Have in Your Wardrobe

1. It’s Comfort You Can Count On

There are days when I want to look cute but still feel like I’m wrapped in a hug — that’s where fleece comes in. It’s soft, breathable, and warm without being bulky.

2. It Works with Every Outfit

Fleece jackets, pullovers, and joggers pair beautifully with everyday staples. Throw it over a tee, style with leggings, or layer it under a coat — it’s a versatile piece that matches almost anything.

3. It Elevates “Casual” to “Stylish”

Modern fleece isn’t frumpy. With clean cuts, muted tones, and elevated textures, it adds a chic touch to your daily outfits. The kind that makes you feel put together even on laid-back days.

Why the Right Backpack Brings Good Vibes Every Day

Fashion, Lifestyle, Parenting

In collaboration with adidas

The school year may already be in full swing, and with the end of September here, routines are starting to settle. Today I’ll talk about something small that continues to brighten my kids’ mornings—their backpacks. Read along as I share why backpacks are more than just school gear, how they bring confidence and organization, and the good vibes they carry into each day.

Why the Right Backpack Brings Good Vibes Every Day

For my kids, a backpack is more than just school gear—it’s part of who they are. The style, the color, and even the way they pack it all say something about their personality. Watching them slip it on before heading out the door always reminds me that a backpack can be a quiet but powerful boost of pride and joy.

And what I love most is how this small detail has become its own little ritual. Picking a bag that’s comfortable, stylish, and functional puts smiles on their faces and makes packing their essentials—lunch, homework, and sometimes a favorite toy—feel less like a chore and more like part of the fun. Even weeks into the school year, that excitement hasn’t faded.

Why a Backpack Matters Every Day

Confidence and good vibes: A backpack they love gives them a little boost of happiness and pride as they carry their things.
Organization made easy: Multiple compartments help keep everything in place—from homework to sports gear.
Durability counts: Kids are always on the move, so a strong backpack keeps their belongings safe.
Comfortable carry: Padded straps and lightweight materials mean no heavy, uncomfortable bags slowing them down.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Everyday Backpack

If you’re thinking about a new backpack for your child, here are a few things to consider:

1. Right size: It should fit comfortably on their back without being too heavy.

2. Compartments: Sections for books, laptops, and smaller items make organization simple.

3. Comfortable design: Padded straps and breathable back panels keep them comfy all day.

4. Durable materials: Strong zippers and tough fabric withstand daily wear.

5. Style they love: A backpack in their favorite color or design gives them confidence and good vibes every time they wear it.

More Than Just School

A backpack isn’t limited to the classroom. After school, it carries sports gear, art projects, or snacks for weekend adventures. With the right backpack, your child can move seamlessly between school, activities, and playtime—always carrying good vibes with them.

10 Minutes Total Body Backyard Workout

Fashion, Lifestyle, Self-Care

Having my mind going toward a sustainable lifestyle, I found adidas is doing a great job implementing their sustainability practices into their lines. Today, I will be sharing my quick workout routine featuring the Ultraboost 20 shoes- made with a performance fabric made entirely from a recycled plastic material.

If you are ready, let’s dive right in!

This post has been sponsored by adidas. All opinions are my own.

I love wearing my adidas for workouts, lounging around, and for any day comfort. Since now a lot of us are spending more time at home, I wanted to share with you a 10-minute total body workout where you can get your daily exercise in quick.

Being at home, you might find yourself in a comfy (lazy) zone often than usual. The tips to get out of this is to start your day productively by;

First: Make your bed

Second: Wash your face

Third: Get your workout in

Fourth: Take a shower

Fifth: Make yourself a healthy breakfast.

If you can have a morning routine like this, you sure will have a productive day ahead. The feelings of accomplishment first thing in the morning have to do with psychology.

Naval Admiral William McRaven mentioned it in his commencement speech a the University of Texas, Austin: If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another. By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that little things in life matter.

In my opinion, accomplishing a workout routine resembles the same results as making beds. Not only that, but morning exercise may also improve decision-making during the day.

The new study, “Distinct Effects of Acute Exercise and Breaks in Sitting on Working Memory and Executive Function in Older Adults,” by Wheeler et al. (2019) was published on April 29, 2019 in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Their findings in the paper’s conclusion: “A morning bout of moderate-intensity exercise improves serum BDNF and working memory or executive function in older adults, depending on whether or not subsequent sitting is also interrupted with intermittent light-intensity walking.”.

See how we can be more productive by only making your bed and exercise!

To get back on track to today’s workout, I have a pdf version of the workout for you to download on the library. If you want it handy with you, head over here.

The sneakers I am wearing today is the adidas Ultraboost 20. These running shoes are made with Primeblue fabric, a performance fabric made entirely from recycled plastic material. It’s made of at least 75% Parley Ocean Plastic, which is marine plastic waste collected from beaches and coastal regions.

Isn’t that so cool?

They are so comfortable and stylish to wear to exercise in, from low to high intensities. You can also wear them with your favorite jeans or outfits like the one I’m wearing for a family afternoon picnic.
