It Is Time to Relax.

I have been going full speed ahead lately and it is taking a toll on my body and mind! In fact, it’s 3pm and I’m sitting here at work realizing that I’ve only had a half glass of water all day and just finished scarfing down lunch that was delivered to me via Takeout Taxi. So what do I do? Why blog, of course!

What I’m dying to do is have a nice quiet weekend day. A leisurely brunch (I adore brunch. I know everyone who works in restaurants hates it but I love it as a time to socialize while eating too much bacon)…while curled up on a comfy couch with the stack of New Yorkers that have been gathering dust since the fall, and a yoga class to get back in tune with myself and relax.

Maybe this will all be possible this weekend over at U Street boutique Caramel, which is hosting a trunk show and free mini yoga class tomorrow. Caramel owner Sarah Watkins has teamed up with local designer Liz Matthews, who recently launched a line of the cutest damn yoga pants I think I’ve ever seen called Even Keel. The pants are made with a fabric blend of 70% bamboo, 25% organic cotton and 5% Spandex (no matter how green you are, you want some Spandex in there). Plus they’re all made in the good ‘ol US of A. I love the ruching and citrusy colors of the Glam Pant, above. I also um, want to be able to do that side-split headstand thing.

There’s no need to RSVP (bless you!)…no need to even bring a mat (bless you times a million!).

Just show up and relax. I think I can pencil that in.

    Dropped in on this a little while ago and picked up the glam gurus in both black and brown. Work out gear? For me, I think not. They are just way too saucy for that. They’re never going to see the depths of my active wear drawer either. I’m making closet space for these cuties. Liz and Sarah are great!
