Last week before I left for Disney, I was able to walk around the newly opened Athleta at the Shops of Briargate! Athleta is one of my all time favorite stores, so when I heard they were opening one in Colorado Springs, I was thrilled! They have such a great balance of quality, durability, and style in their look. So not only can I have a winter vest that keeps me toasty, but it can look super cute at the same time. They also have a work out guaranty on everything they sell which I think ... continue reading...
