What We Bought and Tried On Recently | adoubledose.com

Happy Friday! We wanted to do a quick post of what we have tried on recently/bought so you all could get them before they sell out! In case you missed the last post we did on this, you can find it here! For reference, we are 5’1″ and about 100lbs, and are wearing the smallest size (usually XXS or XS) in most pieces!

This off shoulder top is SO cute and perfect for spring! We love it with shorts or ripped jeans!You all probably will remember seeing this thermal top more than you probably wanted to, but it is such a GOOD top! Really comfy and fits well in all the right places! PS- it’s on SALE for $40!!

If you’re going to buy any tee, it should be this one! The criss-cross detailing is simple, but adds something to a basic tee, and it is sooo soft!

We actually own this v-neck in green and black, but the white is a staple in any closet, and it’s $17!

We were first drawn to this top because of the gorgeous blue color, but we love the pocket and fit of it as well!

We have this v-neck in white and it is amazing! The grey is a great basic to have.

How adorable is this off shoulder dress?! It is the perfect color for spring!

This black swing dress we HAD to have! It fits amazing and is so comfy! It also comes in a bunch of colors!

This plaid top is a great layering piece for spring and can be worn all-year-long!

Be sure to check out the AMAZING nordstrom sale taking place through Sunday! See our must-haves from the sale in this post!

Happy Thursday! Hope you all are having a great week! It is almost Friday, so we are definitely looking forward to the weekend. It has been a crazy week for us, so we can’t even keep track of what day it is anymore, haha.

We are excited to share this black and blue athleisure outfit with y’all! One of us (Sam) actually saw these leggings originally on her trip to the Nike Headquarters, where they showed these leggings, and how they were going to start incorporating a lot more mesh in their pieces.
These leggings are amazing for so many reasons, but one of the main ones being they have a hidden pocket in the thigh area on the side. You can even put your phone in there while you’re at the gym, without the phone slipping out! Isn’t that crazy?! So cool, right? Not only do they look amazing, and can be worn to the gym, or just out for errands, they have great feature as well!
We don’t typically go for a black + blue color combo, but we kind of love the way they look together in this look! This black hoodie is only available in one color (black always is such a go-to color for us, and apparently for everyone else, too ;)), but we found this one that is almost identical and available in all sizes!These flyknit shoes are amazingly comfy! They come in a ton of colors (we own like 4 pairs, haha), and wear them with leggings, jeans, and shorts. They are super padded, so they’re great for running, cardio a the gym, and most workout classes! They’re on sale here as well!
And, now for our FITNESS MUST HAVES:

We often get asked what our “must-have” pieces are. We actually have a sidebar on the side of our homepage that has our current favorites, but we wanted to go into more detail here:

Must Have Swimsuits

February 21, 2017

*click to SHOP*

Swimsuit season is almost here and we CAN’T WAIT! We wanted to round up some of our favorite suits (and some we have ordered recently) before they sell out!

We both usually go for bikinis, but some of these one-pieces are SO fun! Love the detailing like criss-cross and fringe.

This flip flops are our fave for the beach, pool, or just every day because they’re neutral!

How fun is this lace-up sweater?! It comes in black, too and is perfect for spring! It fits a little lower, but not too low, to where it is too revealing!

We paired it with the best stretchy ripped jeans (seriously fit SO amazing), and they’re the kind of jeans you can wear over and over without them stretching out too much!

This bag is under $80, and comes in black, too! It holds so much, and looks way more pricey than what it is!

Scottsdale Recommendations

February 19, 2017

A few of y’all wanted to know some of our recommendations for Scottsdale as far as restaurants and activities. We honestly didn’t get to do that much besides workout, hike, eat, and eat some more;) BUT, we did have some GREAT food!

We didn’t include every single thing we ate, but we did share them on snapchat/insta-stories, in case y’all got to see it! In case you didn’t see the post from Friday, we stayed at The Westin Kierland Resort and Spa. More details on our stay in this post!

WHERE TO EAT:

see pictures below!

Breakfast Kitchen Bar
True Food Kitchen
Pita Jungle
Deseo (in our hotel)
Shake Shack (bunless burger)
The Greenhouse
Chelsea’s Kitchen (in airport)
Le Macaron (we got gelato!)
Snooze

WHAT TO DO:

Camelback Mountain:

As far as activities, we went to Camelback Mountain and hiked the less rock-climbing side (the Cholla trail). It was still a really good workout, but not like rock climbing, like the Echo side. We would definitely recommend it! We actually ended up walking another 45 minutes afterwards to the Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall to walk around and eat something! We were STARVING, per usual;)

Going Out:

Although we don’t go out to eat much, we did meet a friend up to go out for drinks. We had heard some things about Old Town Scottsdale, but let’s just say, it is not our scene. Definitely good people-watching, but next time, we would prefer a more “chill” bar next time, haha.

Laying Out:

We did this twice while we were there because they have GREAT weather right now before it gets too hot! We love just laying by the pool and drinking a good cocktail!

Other Ideas:

We also read they have some other great preserves to look at, great golfing, spas, and kayaking!

Here are some of our meals that I remembered to take photos of!

This breakfast was at Breakfast Kitchen Bar. Literally OBSESSED with everything on their menu! Our friend got the GF pancake and they were incredible! We ate at this spot twice! FYI- the service was pretty slow, so be ready to be patient;) This was the veggie omelette!These are the protein plates, where you can choose veggies and your favorite proteins!
This was at Snooze, another breakfast/lunch spot! Our friend got the GF pancakes and they were also SO yum!
We got an omelette with fruit and a side salad. They had really good coffee! The chicken sausage wasn’t very good (or appetizing, haha)
You all know we LOVE roasted chicken! This was at The Greenhouse.
After our hike, we grabbed a salad with chicken at Pita Jungle at the Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall. It was actually pretty good!
This roasted chicken (again!) was surprisingly at the Phoenix airport at a spot called Chelsea’s Kitchen!
Hope this was helpful for y’all! We know a few of you were asking about it since you had upcoming trips! Please let us know if you have any questions at all! XO
