PortaPocket Notebook
Yoga pants & leggings with real, usable pockets? Yes please! (& for sweat pants & joggers too...)
I love these types of pants. I wear them all the time. But if you're like me, you probably noticed the pockets in them are so tiny you might be able to get a tissue in there. or maybe an ID, or a single flat key. But that's about it.
And as for your phone? Not a chance.
not even close.
The thing is...many of us like to listen to our tunes while we work out. And that means keeping our phones handy. Sure, there are all kinds of armbands & 'fitness belts' out there, but armbands often don't adjust well for smaller linbs, have a tendency to slip down & can dig into your skin, and fitness belts can only be worn one way. Truthfully many of there are not all that comfy while you're working out, and aren't effective for many other uses. Which brings us back to why we need pockets for our yoga pants.
Try as sportswear manufacturers might, there just isn't a way to make an attractive pair of body-conscious yoga pants that can effectively hold a phone. Ever (lol!). So they should stop trying. After all, when you're working out at the gym and on all kinds of different equipment, your body is moving in all kinds of ways. Which means now you're sitting on whatever is in your fixed-size, fixed-position pocket in your clothes... or you're trying to bend there. Comfy yet? Plus, if you're actually trying to use that pocket in your pants, now it's bulging out with the phone jammed in there (not to so sexy for your silhouette), and ruining the line of your look. All in all, it's nothing but a problem.
So what are the alternatives? Before we even think of calling that bra into duty...let's just not given their phone-killing sweat and those no-good emissions by your chest. Sure, some women resort to the waistband trick, but sweat continues to be an issue there, and unsecured devices fall down the leg. File that under 'whoops!'
The good news is.... you're in the right place for solutions to this problem, and on your way to FREEDOM! The secret is out... PortaPocket is IN!
Try this (or this) and you will enjoy confidence... and peace of mind.
Your yoga pants will thank you.

Magic for Mardi Gras
Today is Fat Tuesday and NOLA is having the biggest party right NOW! If you're lucky enough to be taking in the festivities on the streets of New Orleans, you want to be sure to keep your important things close. Throngs of people can (and do) lead to throngs of theft opportunities. Don't leave yourself open to a problem by not thinking ahead.
Now that you know about PortaPocket, you know how to be proactive... and safe. Yay!! Solutions!
We've had Louisianans seek us out and get outfitted with PortaPocket cases before the krewes get going in full swing. What could be better to keep your goodies where they're good, especially while you're riding on the floats, enjoying the parades, and watching the spectacles. Just because you are getting a little tipsy and having a good time doesn't mean you have to end up worrying all night about where you put your things. Just wear what you need, and you're good to go. ;)
