Skirt Sports Fall 2017 Photo Shoot


This past summer I had the AWESOME privilege to participate in the Skirt Sports Fall 2017 photo shoot! If you have ever read my blog, I'm sure you've heard me rave about Skirt Sports. Not only do they have great clothing (I fell in love with them when I first started wearing their Gym Girl Ultra skirts back in 2014 - in addition to their clothes being super comfortable, they are also practical - what sold me was that they have leg pockets to carry your phone, so I no longer had to worry about how to bring it with me on a run), but what's even better, is that this company is founded on the idea to encourage ALL women of all sizes, ages, and abilities, in all walks of life, to lead a healthy and active life. They work hard to spread this message with their #REALwomenmove campaign! This is just so cool to me, because I know when I first started running, it was pretty intimidating! I truly feel that Skirt Sports does a great job providing a genuine, real, inclusive environment for anyone, whether they are just starting to get into fitness, have been an athlete their whole lives, or are even elite level (after all, the founder, Nicole DeBoom is a former Pro-Triathlete). Everyone I have met at Skirt Sports and within their ambassador program is so nice, it creates a real sense of community.

So, when I had an opportunity to participate in their photoshoot (because they always use "real", every day people for their models), I just knew I had to do it! The shoot was two days long with Day 1 in an urban setting in downtown Denver, and Day 2 in a mountain setting up in the mountains above Boulder. As is every event I go to with Skirt Sports, it was a ton of fun and I met some great new people in the process! Below are some of the fantastic photo's by photographer Kim Cook with some descriptions of their clothing.

And as always, if you want to try out Skirt Sports - you can use my ambassador discount code for 20% off: FALL20WIN (this code changes every so often, so feel free to reach out if it doesn't work so I can hook you up!). And please note that while I do receive some incentives for being an ambassador, I do not make any commission from "selling" their clothes. I truly just believe in the product and want to share my love for it! And if you want to be a part of this awesome community, the application for 2018 Ambassador's is currently open until December 20th - APPLY HERE.

DAY 1 Photo Shoot: Downtown Denver

As mentioned before, Day 1 was shot in downtown Denver. We mostly wore more of their warmer weather clothing - the skirts (Gym Girl Ultra, Lioness, Jette, Hover, Happy Girl), Capris (Pocketopia Capri, Lotta Breeze Capri, Hover Capri), and Tank Tops (Wondergirl Tank, Take Five Tank). We did mix in a little of their new Wonder Wool Collection with the Wonder Wool Tee and Wonder Wool Long Sleeve.





Can you find my butt? ;)

I still kind of suck at jumping shots, but that doesn't make them any less fun!



Selfie time!


Their Happy Girl skirt (pictured) is their most popular selling skirt!


DAY 2 Photo Shoot: Gold Hill, Colorado

Day two was shot in the mountains above Boulder - mostly in a small town I had never been to before - Gold Hill. We had a great time shooting more of the "winter" line of clothing with their tights and pants (triple pocket tight, wonder wool tight), long sleeves (tough chick top, wonder wool long sleeve), the press play collection (sanita's pant, dakota capri, and magnolia skirt) and their new, fabulous lounge collection (hangout hoodie and hangout pants).

This is one of my favorite shots!


Just frolicking in the woods in my ever so soft Hangout Hoodie!





The Sanita's Pant are my favorite hiking pants!

This is their "Gotta Go" Collection...see why it's called that HERE.



That backdrop though...?!?

Overall, I had a blast at this... and again, if you have any questions about Skirt Sports - be it their clothing, their ambassador program, or the awesome 13er/10K/5K women's only race they put on every June, please reach out!

Flattop Mountain & Hallett Peak

I've been wanting to hike to the top of Hallett Peak ever since I found out it was the gorgeous mountain towering above Dream and Emera...
