These Dress Pants Are Perfect for… Biking

You’re trying to do the right thing by biking to work, but following a business casual dress code is a huge challenge on a bike. You can either bring a change of clothes (cutting into very important beauty sleep) or try this fashion line from iladora Apparel.

Their black dress pants are breathable, water-resistant and come with an easy roll-up option to keep potential wear and tear and rogue chain oil at bay during your bike ride. Unlike a lot of “bike” attire, these actually look like normal dress pants when the pedals stop moving.

Plus, they are made right in San Francisco, so you can feel good about that too.

Do you bike to work? What’s your strategy?

The problem with workout clothes is that you can't just re-wear them the same way you re-wore that top from two days ago. You just sweat your butt off, and they stink. It's safe to say, once you wear a workout set, just throw them in the wash. But what if the amount of times you workout does not correlate with laundry day? It's safe to say you need to expand your workout wardrobe. If you want to avoid spending hundreds of dollars, but still want a variety of sets... to Amazon we go! Here are 12 dependable workout sets to add to your exercise wardrobe.

As much as we love talking about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce...Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie Kelce deserve their time in the spotlight too! They have a loving and hilarious dynamic that's somehow made room for not one, but three kids. And guess what? They recently announced that baby number 4 is coming soon! From their very funny announcement to everything they've said since, there's a lot of fun to unpack here.

Here's everything to know about Jason Kelce & Kylie Kelce's exciting pregnancy!

When did Jason and Kylie announce she's pregnant?

Amazon Prime

Kylie Kelce shared the huge news on Instagram November 22nd! Of course grandma Donna Kelce was the first to leave a comment. She wrote, "🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍 Love it!!!" Brittany Mahomes also commented by writing, "Ahhhhhh Congrats you guys!!!🥹🤍."

How did Jason and Kylie's other daughters react?

Amazon Prime

In Kylie's same Instagram post, her and Jason's daughters can be seen expressing a range of emotions. There's an 'Eek' expression from their oldest daughter Wyatt, a happy look from their middle daughter Elliott, and pure tears from baby girl Bennett. Kylie wrote, "I feel like we captured a very accurate representation of how each of the girls feel about getting another sister. At least Ellie, mom and dad are on the same page! 🤷♀️"

When is Jason and Kylie's fourth baby due?

Amazon Prime

That's TBD! Since the couple just announced their fourth pregnancy, only time will tell when baby girl will arrive. Knowing Jason and Kylie's willingness to be open about their lives, we wouldn't be surprised if they decide to share a due date.

How are Jason and Kylie preparing to be a family of six?

Amazon Prime

Jason Kelce is taking the news of being an official girl dad like a champ. He told E! Newshe's "got it pretty easy" because "the clothes are all going to be hand-me-downs or already bought." Not only that, but they've already secured a baby crib! However, Jason was quick to add Kylie's also getting ready for their daughter's arrival. "Kylie's definitely preparing more than I am, because she's actually growing the human being."

“I love my kids so much, and especially my daughters,” he added. "I was telling somebody out there because they're expecting their first — and they look at you. They smile at you. There's just a way that kids have to warm your soul in a way that nothing else can.”

He's also excited to watch his daughters grow up with a new sibling. "And hopefully we'll welcome a fourth into this world, and we'll be able to watch them fight and tear each other apart and all the good stuff."

He even appeared on The Rich Eisen Show where he joked, "I'm screwed [in] like in 10 years. The moment they’re all in middle school, I feel like it’s just gonna be chaos." He also hopes Wyatt "can start helping out a little bit more." But, he's still looking forward to it! "I obviously have not had a son, but there is something about a daughter in the way I think as a dad, you feel an extra amount probably of protection and love toward that child," he shared.

I don't spend my whole life in workout clothes, so its hard to justify spending $90 on a single sports bra. But, I still want cute workout clothes that are good quality and provide great support. So, I did some digging on Amazon and found 8 sports bras that do just that... without the massive price tag.

Amazon

Champion Sports Bra

This sports bra is the best solution for the bustier girlies that need extra support when working out! Champion has always provided quality and comfort when it comes to women's sportswear, so I am not surprised by the thousands of positive things customers have to say about this bra! It's designed with adjustable cushioned straps, cup support, and fairly tight compression.

This bra is currently available for $36 (was $48) in sizes all the way up to 42DDD.

Amazon

CRZ Yoga Strappy Sports Bra

Amazon strikes again with the perfect dupe! In this case, it's Lululemon. Everyone raves about the quality of this sports bra being identical to the nearly $60 dollar one from Lulu. It's made for medium support, but still provides some compression. You can remove the padding inside, too, if you prefer more stretch. Additionally, it literally comes in any color under the sun (39 different ones, to be exact) for only $26.

Amazon

Hanes X-Temp Wireless Bra

Yogis unite! If you are in need of some low-impact support, look no further than this comfy Hanes sports bra. According to customers, this bra is snug, but not too tight, and is incredibly soft. I would recommend a bra like this one if you have a smaller chest! It comes in a 2-pack for just $15!

Amazon

The Gym People Sports Bra

This longline sports bra has been an Amazon #1 best seller for a while now! And I understand why, because I own multiple of these in several colors. Not only does this product act as a sports bra, it can be an everyday top, especially in the summer when you're out running errands. You get the support and quality of a performance bra, and the style of incorporating it into an outfit. Get yours in one of 29 colors for just $23.

Amazon

Syrokan Sports Bra

If you are a runner girl, this is the sports bra for you. This is a no-bounce running bra, which your back will thank you for. This sports bra is great for any high-impact athletic activity, or if you are just looking for some extra support in the day-today. Because it is a tighter fit, I recommend sizing up. You can get this bra in several colors and patterns for $32.

Amazon

Warner's Easy Does It Comfort Bra

Sometimes, a seamless and stretchy sports bra is all you need, especially if you don't require as much support, but want to ensure a comfy workout. This one comes in 15 colors and can be worn for a workout or simply around the house. The best part is it's only $18!

Amazon

Puma Seamless Sports Bra

Puma delivers on a classic, reliable sports bra with this style. With perfect support and a great fit on anyone, people are loving this Puma bra. It's a timeless and sexy brand that provides great athletic wear in general! The back of the bra has crossed straps that can be adjusted for extra support. This seamless bra comes in a couple different styles, and in either grey or black for $18.

Amazon

Baomosi Seamless Racerback Sports Bra

This is a really reliable sports bra for an affordable price. It's good for low- to medium-impact activities, such as strength training or yoga. However, the quality and comfort are things that were most highlighted the reviews. It comes in a couple of vibrant colors, and along with this grey, it also comes in a basic black. You can purchase the bra individually, or shop it in a two pack or three pack. One bra is just $14!

Fresh Eggs Daily

Baked Eggs in Butternut Squash Rings

Yummy Thanksgiving Appetizers can be as cute as they are scrumptious — like these Baked Eggs in Butternut Squash Rings recipe form Lisa Steele, author of The Fresh Eggs Daily Cookbook. Here's how you make it:

Ingredients:

  • 1 large butternut squash
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh sage for garnish
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Wash the squash and cut crosswise into six 3/4- to 1-inch slices. Scoop out the seeds and hollow out the middle of each slice to allow room for an egg.
  2. Arrange the squash on the baking sheet and brush each ring with olive oil inside and out, then season with salt and pepper. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 20 minutes, until the squash has softened. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently crack and slide 1 egg into the center of each squash ring. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and return to the oven. Bake about 8 minutes, until the egg whites are set and the yolks are firm but not fully set.
  3. Use a spatula to slide the squash rings onto plates. Top with Parmesan, garnish with fresh sage, and drizzle with olive oil.
