YOU WILL BE HOOKED ONCE YOU TRY THESE LEGGINGS
Are you as happy as I am to see Saturday roll around? I’ve had my days mixed up this week, so it seems to have lasted forever. I don’t have any plans for today, but I’m looking forward to doing nothing. Joe is going golfing, so I might tag along, go to the pool, and relax in the sun.
The other day, Joe came home and had to run back to the airport to check something on his plane, so I went along for the ride. He told me how hard it was to get the plane into the hanger because there is a two or three-inch lip that the plane has to roll over. It took three men to get the plane inside, so now he is trying to come up with a motorized device that will push it in for him.
While I was there, I decided to crawl inside and have a look. I’ve not flown in this plane yet; he is still working on getting his IFR rating. I doubt we will ever use that, but he has to get it for insurance purposes. I sat there in amazement at all the gages; there are many more of them than on his last few planes. This plane has two engines, one in the front and one in the back, so it has duplicate gages.
I told him to take a photo of me like I was flying the plane. He took the photos, handed me the camera, and said, “I doubt they will believe you were flying the plane since you can see the walls of the hanger.” Lol!
Today’s Saturday Casual Style has to be one of the softest and most comfortable outfits I’ve worn. If you don’t want to be hooked, I suggest you ignore this post and come back tomorrow instead. My DIL had a similar outfit when we went to Asheville, and she bragged about it so much that I decided to order it myself. I messaged her yesterday and told her that I was mad at her. She was confused until I told her she was costing me a lot of money since I’m hooked on these leggings after one try!
Let’s start with this White Back In Action Short Sleeve T-Shirt. This is the Nulu tee, and it has a relaxed fit that is made for on-the-go. The tee is buttery soft and perfect for lounging around the house or walking outside.
Here is a look from the back so you can see the length of the tee. It is long enough to cover your bottom, so wearing leggings with this tee is not an issue. I’m wearing a size 10, and you can see how roomy the top is. When I order again, I’ll probably order an 8 instead, and I will try the Lunar Rock color.
This little crossbody is so handy. It is very lightweight and holds a lot of stuff for such a little bag. I have my large phone wallet, keys, and AirPod Pros in here, pulse a couple of credit cards in slots. I’m carrying the black version, which seems to be sold out at the moment. I think this is one of their best sellers, so that they might restock it. It is available in a few other colors, or you could grab the Everywhere Crossbody Bag with the two-tone belt. I love that one, but I didn’t see it when I ordered mine.
I love wearing leggings around the house all year round, but I’m not a fan of compression leggings. I don’t like feeling like a sausage; I would rather be comfortable. The biggest issue I have with most leggings is that you end up with a muffin top since they squeeze you at the waist. These don’t do that!!! The minute I pulled on the Align Leggings, I was hooked. They are incredibly soft and paper-thin. However, they aren’t see-through at all, and they seem to be durable. I’m not sure how they do that, but they do. My DIL tells me they have an incredible return policy, but I’ve not read it yet. These are the 23 “crops; I’m wearing a size 10, and I love the fit.
I still love my Leather Puma Sneakers, an all-white sneaker perfect for summer. These are easy to clean, comfortable, and true to size. I’m wearing my usual size 9, and they fit me great.
I placed another order for a couple of other things; I told you I was hooked. I’ve already worn these leggings three or four times, and they have washed up well. Here is what I ordered.
25″ Align Leggings in Leopard Camo
25″ Align Leggings in Lunar Rock
Back In Action Tee – Lunar Rock

You looked fun and fabulous in your leggings!
You sold me on the leggings.
Never fly commercial again, GoWithJoe Airlines 🙂
You can get a battery powered winch to move the plane in and out. It just sits on the charger in the hangar and is a nice alternative to the messy gas powered versions. I think there are heavy duty versions for twins.
PS You might blur the airplane tail number from your pics..
Shame we can’t get these in the UK…
I had a $100 gift card, so I ordered the 25” leopard camo leggings and a cute tank! I love my luluemon black compression tights, they are like Spanx to me! I hope I like the align also just as much!
I’ve never tried the Lululemon leggings, but maybe I’ll invest in some. I’m at home most days, so I dress pretty casual.
You could photoshop the walls out of the picture if you wanted to. Lol. You look great!
How cool to have a husband that is a pilot and has his own plane! Of course, since I’m afraid of heights, I’d be scared to death in that small of a plane. Due to several nasty skin cancer scars on my legs below my knee, I think I will check out the leggings and top. Hopefully, my budget can swing one of each. Great scripture! Have a fabulous day and Happy Father’s Day to Joe, your dad, and the other dad’s in your life!
Can I see a pic of your haircut, please? I’m looking for something new. It’s very attractive on you. Thank you. I’ll be showing this to my hairdresser so different angles would be helpful.
My daughter and granddaughter both LOVE lulu align leggings. Now that you have agreed, I will have to try them.
However, what really caught my eye this am was the plane. My husband is a pilot, though not current, and enjoyed reading the part about Joe’s plane.
Have a great weekend,
Julie
Julie, once a pilot, always a pilot. Joe has been flying since we first got married, and he loves all planes. He has an experimental 750 that he loves to putter around in, and this is the 2nd time that he has bought a 337. He is always selling a plane and then deciding to buy a different one. Lol!
I’ve got to know what you have done to lose so much weight. I’ve watched your progress over time and you look great. Please email me your plan.
Gayle, here is a post where I wrote about what I’m doing. https://50isnotold.com/losing-weight-over-50/
It is an 8-week program, and I think that sign-ups are getting ready to open up. I’ve not been strict about the plan this summer, I am in maintenance mode, but I’ll go back on the program for fall and winter to keep from gaining the weight back.
I agree Lululemon back in action and align leggings are the best! I wear these often because they are amazingly comfortable, look chic, and fit my retired lifestyle.
I have and love the Lululemon Align leggings. They don’t roll down, last forever and wash well. I grabbed the crossbody awhile ago and use it mainly when I go to the gym. I do grab it when running errands or going to a sports event where you need a small purse because it does fits bunches😀
Love both Lululemon and Athleta leggings. This outfit is very cute!
I love my Lulu Align leggings. I wear them all the time – even when gardening and they don’t snag.
Love my lululemon leggings I have several too they last a long long time!
