Hi there!

I recently tried out Goat Yoga at a lovely farm near us called “Haute Goat.” They also have horses and alpacas on site that we got to hang out with. Karim and I had a blast.

In the first look above my sweater is Vici Collection and my leggings Free People Movement which I’ve blogged about before-they are now on sale! They have similar pairs in their shop now! Once I was warm you’ll see my Sugarmat “pink polka chic bra” sports bra with the beautiful rose detail in the back! I absolutely love this piece. It’s still on sale too since I last blogged about it. My monogrammed “love affair” mat also makes an appearance in this class, which I’ve raved about before too. As always take 15% off Sugarmat products using my code “SugarCarolinaS.”

The Spell “seashell gown” made another appearance at the farm too. It’s another piece I’ve blogged about and just adore especially for fall because of the color I chose. It’s still available on their site and is now on sale! It’s flowy and perfect for summer transitioning to fall since it keeps you warm while still feeling breezy and effortless with a bohemian flair. My oldie but goodie LoveShack Fancy x Superga sneakers finished the look.

Xo,

Carolina

Hi there!

Following my last post with comfy wear-at-home looks for self isolating whether you’re working from home or just going about your day, I wanted to add this gorgeous Spell piece to my blog. I’m obsessed with their recent “seashell collection” (I blogged about my seashell dress in sand recently) since I love everything ocean themed so I picked up the seashell robe. Here I am doing some work at home in my seashell robe. I even sat in my shell chair!

I love that it’s short unlike other robes of mine, so I styled it with my fave oldie but goodie Free People Movement joggers (they have many similar pairs online currently)!

Hope you’re staying safe and comfy!

Xo,

Carolina

Spell seashell collection

Hi there!

I hope everyone is staying safe during our quarantine time. I know my few weeks staying in has come with its set of challenges like not having my work trips or being able to travel, but I know with our collective effort we will be back to normal soon! We are all in this together.

On a trip to Portland, OR some months ago I first wore my new seashell gown by Spell. This collection is truly gorgeous, and I’m especially obsessed because of my love for ocean anything and mermaids! If you zoom in you can see the seashell and mermaid details on this dress and so much from this collection available online only currently. I’m extra in love with the fact that it’s eco friendly fabric! My love of all things mermaid and ocean stems very much from my love of preserving the environment. Spell also just had a sale on their activewear (still going!) so I treated myself for my birthday tomorrow!

Stay safe and well. @Spell IG and other brands are also offering a lot of online workouts in their lives on instagram which then stay on stories and some post to their IGTVs for a free on demand workout. My faves have been @spell, @revolve, @nastygal, and @vaaris (just launched featuring equinox, pure yoga and other workouts on demand in IGTV). I’ve also created a highlight reel called “Isolation Inspiration” on my instagram @carolinasantosread or @carolinasantosread.fashion with quotes, workouts, funny memes and more to help during isolation:)

These photos were taken by my talented friend Sarah who is a photographer in Austin, TX. Her IG is @sarah_uftring.
