Friday Favorites: Target C9

April 8, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Finally Friday! Yay, we made it! I have been a busy bee all morning doing new Disney Cruise Line quotes. Today is the first day you can book the new itineraries! I can book for you, too!

Bobby and I have a fun weekend ahead of us. Tomorrow, we get to participate in a photo shoot and video shoot for some promotional material for our neighborhood, and then we get to go to our neighborhood Easter party! Food, fun, and Easter eggs. What more can you ask for on a Saturday, right? As usual I will be sure to take some pictures for you guys. But for now, it’s time for some Friday Favorites!

If you are a long time reader, you will know I haven’t made it a secret I love a good bargain. and I love Target. and workout clothes. So, imagine when all of these things collide! Well, I will tell you so you don’t have to imagine. You get Target’s Champion C9 brand!

I am really proud of Target for stepping up the game and getting a good line of workout gear. Not only is their gear cute and comfortable, but they make LONG LENGTHS in the pants!!! YAY, no more high waters. No more people asking if I am ready for a flood. No more crying into my pillow from embarrassment. Ok, so not so dramatic, but you get the point.

See this outfit? All C9.

See these pants? C9 long length

See this shirt. Yup, you guessed it. (yes it is different from the one in the first photo. First one is blue even though it’s hard to tell!)

and this top…

…and this one….

and this sports bra…ok I could go on and on.

So as you can see, I I could easily be the poster child for C9 (hint hint!)

Most of my gear is over two years old and still intact. I seriously wear either the knee pants or long pants everyday. Yes, the perils of working at home. So I went to target yesterday and let me tell you how hard it was to walk through there and NOT buy any workout gear…But, I did buy some for Bobby! Yes guys that’s right, they have C9 men’s workout gear too. I bought Bobby two sleeveless dri fit shirts for $11 dollars each. No joke!

So if you have never tried it out, wander on down to Target and take a look! Oh, and don’t worry I didn’t walk out empty handed. Look at the super cute dress I got for $18 dollars!

Have a great day! I am going to workout and enjoy the sunshine!

    LOVE C9 stuff! I have TONS of it as well and often talk about it on my blog too.

    Last week I scored some of their duo dry running shirts for only $7!!

    Just bought their moisture-wicking running socks last week.

    BIG fan. I’d say 90% of my running gear and work out gear is C9.

    I love the C9 capris! Nike will always be favorite (mainly for their amazing sport bras) but C9 is a close 2nd!

    I love Target for all things. I got the cutest dresses there a few weeks ago and they were so cheap. I also have plenty of C9 stuff. My only compliant is that their running shorts differ greatly in size and fit. I can buy Nike running shorts and the same size always fits me, but with C9, I have to try them on because the waist band is so different depending on the shorts. You can’t beat the price though!

    Cute dress! I love Target, but I always spend so much when I’m there. I have to go there later today; I fear for my bank account.
    I love all Brooks stuff! Thankfully, I get a hefty discount because it is pricey.

    For my “everyday” running stuff, C9 is my “go-to” brand. Love it!!!

    I love C9 workout wear as well! (I actually wore my C9 capris on my 6.2 mile run today!) My husband likes the dri-fit shirts and pullovers too – he actually said he wants more, so a trip to Target is happening tomorrow! That dress is adorable – I thank that may be what started the “Hey hun, we need to go to Target” conversation 🙂

    I’ve been thinking about getting a c9 sports bra for medium impact workouts (I use moving comfort bras for running, but they aren’t racerback, and I like that look better). Do you know if the c9 is supportive enough for D cups?

    • Heather says

      April 8, 2011 at 5:17 pm

      My suggestion would be to just go try them on. I am a C and its fine for me. Also They have two types, one with adjustable straps and one without.

      Hi Claire, I’ve been running in the c9 sports bras for a few years now, through 5 1/2 marathons and many other long runs and they are great. I sometimes layer with a regular bra depending on my running shirt support. I am a 34D and love them! Such a good price too!

        Thanks guys, I bought one this weekend, and it works great!

    Love Target for many things! I do like their C9 line!

    I also have a ton of C9 stuff! I like the fact it is consistently decent quality and not over priced…and they have good sales. I have the same blue tank and capris as in your first photo!

    I think their sports bras are a bit lacking in support and comfort – but then I’m yet to find a sports bra that I absolutely love, probably because I am too cheap to spend more than $20 on a sports bra!

    April 9, 2011 at 3:39 pm

    Aww, I love Target! I’m not gonna lie – most of my “work out gear” is really just sofie shorts and Old Navy tank tops. 😉 By the way, that yellow dress is super adorable! I love dresses! 🙂

    I love Target’s C9 stuff. I have worn one of their tops that I got quite a few times, and I am dying to go back and get some more!

    Oh girl I am a Target fool!! I live literally 1 minute away from out local store and I agree that they have awesome workout clothing. Not to mention cool everything else. Target = dangerous spending lol! Have a great weekend!

    I love C9 workout gear. I to have alot of it. I just resently bought a running skort at Target. Love it. Target will probably be emailing you to do a review on their products. Great review.

    Love c9 as you know! The sports bras and sleeveless shirts are the best! I also like the socks. C9 tops go well with my running skirts. When you splurge on skirts, it’s nice to find quality value tops and bras.

Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of my favorite traditions. ✨☕ 
From grabbing coffee to wandering through the decorated stores, there’s just something magical about this season. We laughed, made memories, and even managed to cross a few names off our list. 🎄 (ad) 

One of our favorite stops was Reeds at West Town Mall, where I spotted the new Victorinox Air Pro — a watch that’s Swiss-made with incredible craftsmanship, a stainless steel case, shock + water resistance, and even the ability to track 3 time zones at once. 🙌 It’s modern, timeless, and such a meaningful find for the men in my life.

The best part? Ending the day with full shopping bags, full hearts, and a gift I know will be worn and treasured for years. 💫 @victorinoxnorthamerica

🏖️ I’m so thankful my parents took us on tr 🏖️ I’m so thankful my parents took us on trips growing up. When I was young, we didn’t have a lot of money, but they made every weekend getaway or camping trip special, and I have so many great memories. 

We may not have gotten to travel often until I was a teenager, but we still had a blast, and they even took us to a @spectrumresorts  property! (Ad)

As an adult, I am so grateful to be able to return the favor. To see them laugh and play with my daughter like they did with me. It’s one of those special full circle moments, those core memories that will stay with me forever. 🥹

Staying at @turquoiseplaceofficial makes things so easy, too. The condos are huge and we easily all fit without being on top of each other. There’s plenty to do with pools, a waterslide, lazy river, the beach, movie nights, kids activities, food, and more. ✨

It truly is the perfect place for a multigenerational vacation. So if you are looking for a great place to go with your parents, grandkids, aunts, uncles, or cousins, this is it. 💖

And, you can save 10% on your stay by using my code LOOKGLASS in the promo box when you are booking, here or at @thebeachclubresortandspa! 🏖️

We take her on these trips and cruises hoping she’ll soak in the adventure, the beauty, and maybe even the food from places different from where we live… but to her, nothing beats a corn dog and mac & cheese. 🧀 

And honestly, that’s the best reminder for us, that joy doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to be yours. 🛳✨

YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the kids menu, and singing “Let it Go” with a butter knife while wearing Mickey ears on our Disney cruise. 🚢 

When I was 12, I was worried a lot… worried about failing, scared of what people would think of me, and of not fitting in or being “cool”. 
I turned 40 this year and have been spending time trying to figure out exactly who I really am with all expectations stripped away. I don’t love the term “finding yourself”, but here I feel like it fits. ✨

Maybe finding yourself means going back to being 12.… and being myself without being scared. Heather at 12 would never believe this version of me… but I think she’d be proud. 💛✨
