Flo Jo: Embodiment of Strength and Femininity

Flo Jo, Grassroots Team Member, Inspiring Female Athletes, Melissa Love, Self-Esteem, Stonewear -

One of my female athlete inspirations is Florence Griffith Joyner “Flo Jo.”  One of the great track and field athletes.  She was fast and flamboyant, powerful and strong.  She exuded intense strength with femininity combined.  Although we lost her early (aged 38) from heart failure amidst rumors of enhancement drugs, she had always had a […]

In celebration of National Women’s History Month, Beth Nobles sent us this note about her outdoorsy female role model, Juliette Gordon Low:  My family tried camping…once.  Soggy canvas tents, indefatigable mosquitoes, loud campground neighbors all made for a miserable excursion for my parents and my sister.  But I loved it.  So I thank Juliette Gordon Low, founder […]

    Ava Dress Dresses and I don’t get along very well.  My body type just does better with skirts and tops.  And yet, I almost missed how awesome the Ava dress is when you fold it down and wear it as a skirt.  It hits right below the knees for a little more coverage, […]

Bobbi Bensman: Pushing Limits

Self-Esteem -

Bobbi Bensman has been inspiring me since 1994… When I was a competitive rock climber in the 1990s, there weren’t a lot of women who were pushing the limits, and I aspired to be as strong as the women who were at the top in the United States. In 1995, I made the cut-off! Top […]

activewear, Ambassador, Jeline Guiles, Maternity, Our Clothes, Review, Spring Line -

  Being almost 38 weeks pregnant, it’s difficult to find regular workout clothing that I can fit into, yet wear after giving birth.
