Fashionably Fit

I know that being fit is important, just getting active and moving is key. Having a device that helps track your activity has been a big part of getting people moving and being active. However, to be perfectly honest, whenever I get dressed up to go to a function or even the movies with my honey, I don’t wear my Fitbit because it doesn’t go with my outfit. Yeah, I am a girl, and I want to look nice when I go out on date night. But we all know that when you do go out you do a lot of walking and dancing that you can’t even track. Well now you can! Thank you FUNKtional Wearables for blinging out my Fitbit! I no longer have any excuses not to wear my Fitbit. FUNKtional Wearables are fabulous! Cynthia Blais has developed beautifully designed bracelets that you can wear with Fitbit, UP, and Garmin Vivofit. You no longer have to choose between fashion and fit.
