Laurie Barokas and Nancy Cirillo are busy moms who need
their wardrobe to keep up with their athletic yet stylish lifestyle. So what's

line is pretty, fun and easy to live in, perfect for the woman who wants to be
able to transition from the gym to the street without having to orchestrate a
major outfit change.
