Adidas Ultraboost Review

If you follow me on Instagram then you know I got a new pair of running shoes at the start of quarantine. With gyms being closed I knew I would be doing a lot of outdoor running. I am extremely prone to shine splints and the one thing that helps is a good pair of shoes. I had my old pair for about a year and a half so I knew I needed a new pair. 

I am always willing to spend money on a good pair of shoes because I know they can make a huge difference. I started wear Brooks about 2.5 years ago when I started training for my first half marathon. I absolutely LOVE them, but my friend told me I should try Adidas Ultraboost. She used to only wear Brooks but she made the switch and never looked back. 

When I found myself looking for new shoes I stumbled upon a pair of Ultraboost on sale and decided to pull the trigger.

I have been wearing them for almost 2 months now and thought I would share my thoughts with you.
I'll start with letting y'all know I absolutely love these.
The first time I put them on I could feel so much cushion and support in the heel area and just knew they were going to be great.
I will say it took a couple runs to break them in, but that's to be expected. Since I've gotten them all broken in my joints, shins and calves have been feeling so much better. (I've ran on the beach and the pavement. No treadmill yet because #coronavirus) 
The only downside I could potentially see is they are a little heavy. That isn't something I usually look at so it doesn't bother me, but I know that is a factor to some. The weight definitely comes from the cushion in the heel so for me it would outweigh the negative.
I think I can officially say I have found a new brand/style of running shoes. I will definitely be buying another pair in the future. I've linked them in a few places below. They have been on sale quite a bit lately so if you are currently looking keep an eye out for a sale.

What I Bought 3.23

Happy Sunday!
I usually never post on the blog on Sunday. In all honesty I had all intentions of getting this post up on Friday and it just didn't happen.
This past week I had an idea for a new post series. The series is "What I Bought This Week". At the end of each week I thought it could be interesting to share with y'all all the things I purchased.

I want to preface with I  understand that some people aren't shopping right now and that's ok and totally understandable. I realize that some people will think this is highly inappropriate given the timing and everything that's going on. I also understand where you are coming from. However, this is a fashion and lifestyle blog and hopefully somewhere you come for inspiration and possibly even aspiration. I will also say a lot of the things this week are justifiable for staying sane during quarantine.
So read on below if you are curious about what I bought this week.

Dining Room Table
J and I are both working from home now. We don't have an office and are setup at the kitchen table. With us both having a monitor and a laptop there is just not enough space. I found this table for pretty cheap and knew we could use it for a little while in our new house as well. We also have had our dining room table for 3 years now and it was a hand me down. This was much needed.
Adidas Ultraboost
I have been running outside 4-5 times a week since all the gyms closed. I get really bad shin splints and my running shoes were about a year and a half old. I decided to treat myself to a new pair. I found them on Amazon for a really good deal. They are also 30% off at Nordstrom right now.
Reusable Straws
We finally ran out of our plastic straws and I decided not to buy more. We have metal ones but my friends recommended these to me. I love them and so does J.
Blue Light Glasses
I need new glasses really bad. (It's on my list of things to do this year.) Until I can get new ones I thought I would try out some blue light ones since I am always on my phone or computer.
Where the Crawdad Sings
Really hoping to read a bunch during this time. I got this one, Winter in Paradise, and the Jessica Simpson one to start off with.
Colored Pencils
I've had an adult coloring book for a while and never gotten around to using it. Finally got some colored pencils and will be coloring this afternoon. If you need a coloring book I thought this one & this one looked good.
Self Tanner
It was on sale last week and being tan makes me feel better.
Tula Day and Night Moisturizer
This was also on sale and I use this stuff daily so thought it was a good time to get a backup.

I hope y'all liked this post. This week I bought some really random stuff I feel like. I probably won't do this every week, but thought it seemed like a fun/good way to share products with y'all.
As always I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. If you need to talk I'm always here! Send me an email, leave a comment or slide into my DMs on insta.
