Earlier this year, I did a review of Gracie's Gear, a fitness apparel company with charitable twist. I was totally impressed with the quality, fit, usefulness, and look of the sports bra and top, and now, you could win a chance to try out a Gracie's Gear hoodie!

The hoodie is a quarter-zip jacket designed to keep you sufficiently warm but dry when you're working out on cooler days -- the special material even works to keep you from getting smelly! A zip-close pocket in the front will hold all of your workout essentials. Plus, it's cute!

I went to H&M and found some really cute tops. Did I try them on? NO. I went to my Zumba class and wear one of the shirts with some slimming (or so I thought) black yoga capris. So here I am thinking I look the bomb until I get in front of that huge mirror!! Holy cow, I thought I would die of embarrassment with all the flab in my midriff showing. Of course the shirt was too short so my belly showed every time I raised my arms a millimeter--never again will dress without confirming in the privacy of my home!

I once worked out for an hour, doing squats, leg lifts and the like, until I noted a giant hole in my pants near my bum. Ooooops!

My worst wardrobe malfunction is consistently not wearing enough layers when it's cold outside. I'll come in from the cold, get in the hot shower, and it feels PAINFUL because the water is like needles against my frozen skin. :)

I must have brushed up against something sharp and not noticed it, but one day at work I went to the bathroom and realized I could see all the way through the butt of my pants to the floor! There was a giant hole and LUCKILY the fabric of the pockets was behind the hole so even though people might have thought they were looking at my underwear (the pockets were made of a cute plaid print) thats better than them just seeing my bare behind - I was wearing a thong that day!

i often wear very old shirts to workout in. but after years of washing, the material becomes thin and frail, especially in areas of the armpits and neckline. several times i have left the gym in tattered looking rags.

Wearing a too-loose tank top while jogging on the treadmill- it kept sliding down and showing a little too much up top!

My worst was riding a motorcycle in Thailand when my skirt got caught. It ripped off while I was in front of a taxi truck full of people. Luckily Thai people are known for their kindness for good reason. A gentleman jumped out of the truck and wrapped a sweatshirt around my g-string baring behind and then a woman at a shop let me borrow a skirt so I could get home.

When my sisters and I were little, we took a lot of dance classes. Nothing stinks more than having to take off your entire leotard and tights ensemble to use the bathroom - nothing except my mother's solution.

My mother cut the leotards at the crotch area and fastened them back together with VELCRO. What do you think happened when we did a cartwheel or back walkover? Yep, you guessed it. Horror.

My wardrobe malfunction happens all the time. I go straight to the gym from work, so I don't change my underwear. I never think about it in the morning when I'm getting dressed, but some of my panties are good for working out and some (brazilian cut, etc) are NOT. About half the time I regret my decision, usually just after doing my first squat. Working out with a major wedgie is very uncomfortable. I'd be the other class participants think I have some "issues", ha.

I was on the elliptical machine at my local gym for quite a long time. I look over to the mirror to see my form, and my top half was bouncing all over the place. I was so embarrassed! I now wear two bras when I work out. I normal, everyday bra, and a sports bra over it...

I couldn't find my normal tight running pants, so I decided to just go for a run in my yoga pants that flare out at the ankles. About a mile in, I got tangled up in the extra fabric and fell down on the sidewalk, tearing up both my pants and knees and tossed my ipod across the street! Needless to say, that was the last time I ever went running in loose pants!

Ernie 11-25-2008 @ 3:34PM

I have these shorts with a particularly obnoxious length that scraped on the back of my knees during a run and I had to cut it short. It was horrible. I want to win this for my girlfriend!

I was dressed up one day for a project i was presenting. I wore a cotton sundress along with a pair of nylon tights. What I didn't know after I freshened up in the middle of the day, was that I had somehow tucked by dress into my tights. Needless to say, a lot of people noticed.

Emily 11-27-2008 @ 8:54PM

Nothing spectacular, unfortunately... a whole lot of "working out in cotton t-shirts" though, which sucks. Technical gear is totally the way to go. Although yesterday when I got to spinning I realised I had forgotten my sports bra at home, so I had to work out in my regular bra, which was lame.

I once wore a new pair of pants to run an 8K Turkey Trot. The pants were SO uncomfortable through the race. I finished and was met by friends at the finish line. At the gear pickup line, my friends started laughing at me when they told me I had my pants on backwards. The back pockets were in the front, the fly and button were in the back. I got dressed at 5am before my caffeine-fix and I guess I never noticed!!!
