Do you follow fashion shows? If you do, I am sure your social media feeds have been one image after another for the Spring/Summer trends for 2015. If fashion isn’t your passion, just know that Fashion Weeks {first New York, then London, Paris and Milan to follow} happen in September. Most of the clothes are either something I could never wear or could not afford. However, for me it is fun to see new designs and how designers push the envelope.
The most inspiring show was New York Fashion Week like you have never seen it. Oiselle, a women’s running apparel company, had real athletes walk the runway instead of professional models. They walked the runway at Nolcha Fashion Week in New York City last week debuting they spring/summer line for next year! These girls are the real deal. A hammer thrower, marathoners, moms, and all-together bad ass runners. True elite athletes. Just check out those toned legs, amazing abs, and ridiculous muscles.
These women represent the best of what we can be. Beautiful, confident, strong and successful. I love the energy and spirit of this company. Who better to model your gear than the women who it is made for? Just keep running, Oiselle!
