Today I’ve teamed up with one of my favorite lifestyle brands Lolë to talk all about one of my most passionate topics on the blog: fitness and health! For some, living an active lifestyle can be intimidating, but for others, they don’t even have to think twice. I’m here to tell you that it’s never too late to start living an active lifestyle…don’t wait for tomorrow or even the new year! Seriously- don’t think any longer, just keep reading to find out what my 3 important tips to living an active lifestyle are and it’ll come natural and become your everyday soon enough!
I’ve been living an active lifestyle for as long as I can remember, participating in sports and dance as a kid. Not only has living an active lifestyle been rewarding, but as an adult there are so many positive physical and emotional health benefits that come along with it. It’s a way of life that keeps me happier than ever, and I hope everyone can enjoy it just as much as I do 🙂

Of course, in addition to eating a balanced healthy diet (I like to follow the 80/20 rule) and drinking a lot of water, there are 3 secrets I’m confident will help someone looking to live an active lifestyle:
- Clothing: To some this may sound silly, but honestly it’s the truth. Finding comfortable clothes that fit you AND that are stylish is so important! My favorite brand that encourages living an active lifestyle is Lolë. Their approach to activewear is fashion-forward, practical, versatile, and high-quality designs that take me from spin class at the gym, to brunch with my mom, to grocery shopping, and even to teaching! Every piece of clothing seamlessly takes me through everyday life no matter what I’m doing. The best part: their clothes are SUPER soft and comfortable, and some of their clothing (like this sweater I’m wearing) is made from recycled plastic bottles. Cool right?!
- Movement: Any movement is good movement. Find movement that you enjoy! For me, that’s taking spin classes, taking evening neighborhood walks, and going to my beach bootcamp class on the weekends. Honestly you need to find something you love that will make you look forward to your time being active, instead of it feeling like a chore. Consider taking the stairs, parking on the far end of the parking lot, walking outside on your lunch break, or signing up for a pilates or kickboxing class to get your blood flowing! Anything that gets your body up and active for at least 30 minutes per day is a great start.
- Accountability: This is key. Keeping yourself accountable daily will help you maintain your active lifestyle in the long run. For me, wearing my fitness tracker watch daily is motivation enough! I make it a daily goal to hit 10,000 steps, and most of the time I do! You can also arrange to meet your girlfriend at the gym everyday at the same time, or sign you and your man up for a fun class at the gym! Accountability will help you reach your goals.
If you’ve been following me for awhile, then you know that Lolë is not a new brand for you to be reading or seeing, and it’s something I really do love and wear! What is NEW news, is that Lolë just launched a menswear line that is out of this world (which is not surprising)! I love that their menswear line can take men from the gym, around town, and even out to dinner- it’s so versatile and looks SO flattering! I can’t wait to buy my dad and brother this puffer vest, jacket and joggers for Christmas… I know they’re going to love it 😉 Think about scoring some pieces for your hubby, boyfriend, uncle, dad, or brother for the holidays! Here are my favorites for men (use discount code: TOREY30 at checkout!):
Before you go, I want you to leave this blog post feeling inspired: Lolë‘s mission is to Live Out Loud Every Day, which I try and remember day in and day out. Like I mentioned before, the majority of their clothing is made from eco-friendly, recyclable materials (like my sweater which is made from recycled plastic bottles, my vest uses cruelty-free down, my jacket which has a vegan and eco-friendly insulation, leggings which are eco-friendly, and my bag which is vegan)…so you know your purchases are super helpful for the environment! The Maria Packable Jacket is insulated with LOFTECH™ which is Vegan and the closest synthetic alternative to natural down ever developed! This insulation is also eco-friendly as it adheres to the bluesign© standard which is built around five principles; resource productivity, consumer safety, air emission, water emission, occupational health and safety. The Burst Leggings are eco-friendly as they are OEKO-TEX® certified. The OEKO-TEX® certificate follows strict guidelines regarding waste water purification, exhaust air emissions waste management, use of environmentally compatible technologies, optimization of the use of energy, workplace hygiene and safety, and overall satisfaction of social criteria.
Just in time for holiday gifting, remember to get something for yourself and someone you love! Lolë is a brand that will truly blow your mind with every thought out detail, so follow them on Instagram to see more active lifestyle inspiration, get out there, and LIVE OUT LOUD EVERY DAY! 🙂
