Even in the midst of the summer, some of us (San Franciscans) are still wearing turtlenecks and planning our last-minute vacations. Curating the perfect wardrobe isn’t easy. I’ve always been a fan of dresses that can be worn all year round, regardless of the season. A lightweight dress can be paired with stylish flat shoes in the summer, or it can be accessorized with tights and a sweater in the fall and winter. This saves time, and it saves space in your carry-on. You can be pretty and prudent when you pack. Travel is complicated; style shouldn’t be.

We met with SF based founders and asked about friendship, summer and travel.

A Toned Tight Summer In 3 Poses by Brenna Barry
As the countdown to summer begins, we checked in with one of California’s best yoga studios. San Francisco’s Body Temp Yoga, in the Marina District, is a mecca for hot yoga lovers. With power yoga, weights and targeted moves to sculpt your body, it’s no wonder that the women who walk in and out of the studio boast some of the city’s best bodies—after just one session, you won’t wonder why.
Brenna Barry is one of the studio’s top instructors, and she showed us three poses you can use to look great while traveling this summer. Between hectic schedules, a calendar filling up with trips, and nursing the aftereffects of margaritas and jet lag, Brenna’s literally got the moves to get you feeling balanced and beautiful.

Brenna Barry has been practicing yoga for nine years and teaching in San Francisco for the last four years. In addition to teaching at Body Temp Yoga, she teaches corporate yoga and private lessons, assists at Yoga Tree Valencia. Follow Brenna: FaceBook @ Brenna Barry Yoga, Instagram @brennabarry.
