Hi there! 

I would like to thank the amazing Puma team for sponsoring me. I have loved working with this amazing brand and they so generously sent me the workout clothes you see in the photos above. Francisco and I wanted to show the two sides to my workout and lifestyle in these photos: my athletic go-getter workout junkie lifestyle as well as the fact that I'm a dancer in addition to dancing in musical theater productions and on camera. Additionally, you can regularly find me keeping fit in dance classes. Puma keeps me stylish while doing it.  

The first look is the swan pack. It's complete with black sneakers, matching Swan print white black and pink leggings and sports bra, and a black mesh crop hoodie. They even gave me a fierce purple and black iridescent black drawstring bag to wear! This look has me feeling fierce and like a warrior when I go for runs or take Barre method, Pilates, yoga, or strength training classes. I love how the swan print on the bra and sides of the leggings adds a little dancer to my fierce ensemble, and the hoodie looks tough with the mesh detail while still fashion forward with the crop top and billowy sleeves. I'd wear this for workouts as well as running around the city! 

Side note: I'm on classpass for workouts, and it's amazing because I can switch up the classes I take at gyms and boutique gyms all over the city so it suits my freelance lifestyle perfectly and allows the variety I crave when working out. Get $30 off on me when you join classpass here: Get $30 @classpass!

My second look is also all Puma except for my La Duca dance heels which I live in for dance class, at auditions, and in musical theater contracts. I love how the mesh detail on the leggings makes me feel strong and the soft pastel colors softens the ensemble and also makes me feel like a mermaid. They are fashion forward with the mesh and angular crop length, and the mesh in the leggings matches the mesh in the tank! My tank is grey and black to match many of my workout clothes. I would also wear this look as athleisure with a flat or a sneaker for running around the city into a workout. 

Work out in style with Puma no matter what you're doing. Thank you, Puma! 

Xo,

Carolina
