Hi there!

I just got back from a lovely stay in Miami (who doesn’t have a great trip there, especially when getting away from the cold, amiright?) and I wanted to share some workout-wear and later some resort-wear I got recently!

I’m wearing Constantly Varied Gear leggings in all my looks above. They are a small business out of Massachusetts and they have great products! They are also made to last and fit a curvy and athletic shape well. I found the elastic to be strong in the stretch of the pants but it also hugs well and you feel sucked in like a good pair of workout pants should make you feel! Additionally, I’m loving that they stay up where they should during a high intensity workout or a stretch and tone workout like yoga. I’ve worn them for both and they pass my test! Use code “Carolina” for 10% off your order!

Finally, in my photos below I’m wearing a Free People movement set called the “genesis bra and legging” set in rose water. It’s a lovely soft stretch fabric that hugs you in the right places and is flattering. I love the scalloped detail on the bra and leggings too!

Happy workouts guys! It’s almost the holidays when I eat so much so I’m gearing up for that. Exercise also just makes me feel so good! I used to be a dancer full time so I still stay active nowadays whenever I can, whether I’m on a dance or acting project or working for my blog:)

Xo,

Carolina

Cozy Winter Neutrals

Carolina Santos Read

In my Vince Camuto Moto boots (now on sale!) JCrew matchstick dark denim skinnies, and Free People "We The Free Sheila Hacci" knit top.  Shot in Philadelphia by Francisco Graciano.

Hi there!

On a recent trip to Philadelphia, PA Francisco and I decided to shoot my new Free People "We The Free Sheila Hacci" top which I styled with my JCrew dark wash denim matchstick skinny jeans, white lace tank, Vince Camuto biker boots and black beanie for an effortless comfortable and slightly edgy yet cool look. 

What I love about the color and draping on this grey knit is how easy to wear it is while overall maintaining an effortless chic. We all need that wardrobe piece that is cozy and you feel good in but don't want to forego style. Here is that perfect piece!

Outfit details

Here you can see a great close-up shot of the top. I even matched my nail polish (a sparkly grey from Urban Outfitters) to the top! Check out the photo below for my sunglasses and nail polish. 

Here I am cheesing with my new Urban Outfitters sparkly grey nail polish and Zara red sunnies I bought last fall while shopping in São Paulo" with my cousin.  I love the fun pop of color they add to an outfit, and we couldn't resist another shot in the beautiful historic city of Philadelphia!

Xo,

Carolina
