It’s September and it’s already getting colder. You might as well say it’s fall, so it’s time to talk about buying clothes that I can wear when the temperature changes.  I need clothing that I can dress up and dress down because there are times when my days can take an unexpected turn. I am also active so I need clothing that look good and feel comfortable. Whether I end up at a fun event or I decide to take a walk to get some exercise I need clothing that can go the distance.

There are a few brands whose clothes I really enjoy, but I am always on the lookout for great options.  After finding out more about how clothing is produced  I also have a heart for clothing manufactures who take care of their people.  It’s even better if they are good for the environment.

 Clothes that travel well are also important.  Clothing that breathes, looks good on my body type. are also things I consider when I am upgrading my wardrobe.  Nothing puts you in a good mood, like being in uncomfortable clothing when you are out and about. Whether I am on a plane or in a business meeting, or taking in some new sights I want clothing that I feel good in and clothing that fits.  I also want clothing that reflects who I am and clothing that will last.

 prAna  was a brand I heard about last December, I have a pair of their jeans and one of their shirts I bought last year.  The material was amazing, they wear well and I loved the way they looked and the way they felt.  The craftsmanship was also amazing.

I found these mantra pants in cargo green on the prAna website. As soon as I saw them I knew they were exactly what I needed.

When the pants arrived I immediately noticed how soft they felt, but that means nothing to me until I found out what it was like to wear them all day long.  I gave them a real workout when I went to a trade show.  To my surprise, they felt amazing.  They didn’t just breathe they also had a little give to them which made them feel amazing.  I was really impressed. After wearing them all day, I think I am going to buy them in another color.   The pant legs are long, but as I said the comfort level of these was easily an 8.  I also felt like I could easily dress these up or down.   They also look like they will last.

Here are two great things about prAna I didn’t mention.  I love, love, love their jeans trust me when I say they are well worth every dime you spend on them.  Another great thing about prAna is the sales.  For all of us who love high quality items, you will be glad to know that prAna has AMAZING sales.   They also have a great line of fitness clothes.
