A short while back, I had an opportunity to work with Mandy, the mastermind behind Fran’s Closet RX. In helping to spread the word about her Crossfit clothing line, I was fortunate enough to review one of her popular designs, an off-the-shoulder sweatshirt lined with the softest fleece!
Love at first wear. To get an idea of how obsessed I became with this sweatshirt, I posted it to Instagram, after multiple comments from my youngest sister asking if I was ever going to take it off.. or wash it..
And continued to wear it..
Not even exaggerating- I've worn my @FransClosetRX barbell sweatshirt at some point everyday for the past 16 days..

Not too long after I became obsessed with my sweatshirt, a Twitter contest opened up with an opportunity to caption a tank top:
Reply with what saying you would like to see on this tank. Best one gets one for free. http://t.co/mDHYAW9YzZ pic.twitter.com/Le5SbgK0Qj

It was right around the time of the whole Miley incident, and a clever idea quickly came to me: “I don’t twerk. I jerk.” Guess who won herself a free tank?
So far, Fran’s Closet RX scored 2/2 with me..
I had a competition last weekend and my partner and I were trying to come up with a cute team name and accompanying design. The competition was called “Chicks and Dicks,” and since his name was Chuck, we came up with “Chuck and Chick.” Being the non creative types that we are regarding design, I emailed Mandy since she has created her own custom designs for Crossfit and non-Crossfit related things. Without hesitation, she came up with a design concept, put in an order for our shirts, and had the items shipped out with a turnaround time of about a week!
Adorable, aren’t we they? Most of her tanks and tees are between $17-$20, with sweatshirts $35-$40. Pretty much any design can be created on any style shirt, along with custom wording, if needed! Her product line has also recently expanded to include colorful wrist wraps, an essential for all-around Crossfit cuteness (and function)!
I am excited to announce that one of my lucky readers is going to win his or her own item from Fran’s Closet! Be sure to “like” Fran’s Closet RX on Facebook, follow on Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram and enter below!
And if you cannot wait or sadly, do not win, I have a discount code for you to use on your own choice of products, handcrafted from Mandy’s ‘pain cave’. Just use code “WINE” at checkout!
Your turn..
Do you prefer to twerk or jerk?
How would you have captioned the “jerk” tank?
Do you like to WOD in plain shirts or ones with sayings?
Have you ever worn an article of clothing everyday for a month?
Disclaimer: I was provided a sweatshirt in exchange for a review at no cost to me. However, all thoughts and opinions are completely my own and you can ask anyone I know to validate my obsession with said sweatshirt.

I neeeedddd thissssss! I like the jerk one.
I love the barbell love off the shoulder sweatshirt! Although any of the designs would make me happy! Great giveaway!!
Adorable designs! I really like the Wonder Under Woman shirt.
The barbell love off the shoulder sweatshirt, in purple…it’s so cute!
I love the off the shoulder sweatshirt! And I didn’t know you came up with the “I don’t twerk, I jerk”! Brilliant!! I have a hoodie that says “for a good time call FRAN 21-15-9” which I have worn nearly every day for too long.
I love to WOD with shirts with sayings. I have one that says “I clean, I jerk & I have a nice snatch” haha. Crossfit humor is awesome. 🙂

My favorite item is her Wonder Woman double under shirt, which I own and LOVE, but I love the sweatshirts, too, they look so comfortable!!
I have ordered the sweatshirt and can’t wait for it to arrive. I’ve seen yours and you have expressed how much you like it. I didn’t think I needed one, but all I have is hoodies and the hood gets in the way.
I love the love barbell sweatshirt, so cute!
Barbell off the shoulder sweatshirt!!!

I have been wanting to get the clean & jerk-off the shoulder sweatshirt for some time now. Reading that you wear yours all the time helps me with my decision. Will be ordering it in the near future!
These shirts are so cute! I love shirts with sayings about
LOVE the sweatshirt! would also wear it everyday….
The Wonder Under top is awesome!
Love the sweatshirt!
I love the Wonder Under stuff…I’m a huge Wonder Woman fan!
I love the kettlebell and the barbell tank tops! Super cute!
All of the shirts are great. I’m really I need of an off the shoulders sweatshirt.
Ha! I would have to say that I prefer to jerk… I took a twerkshop once (oh yes I did) and it was sufficiently awkward. About 1/3 of the girls in my class may have actually been professional strippers, and the autonomy with which they could move their hips was pretty impressive.

OH MY GOSH! Next time brad and I do a competition, we need to get the mustache shirts! But i think my favorite design is the chevorn kettlebell. LOVE chevron prints 🙂

Do you prefer to twerk or jerk? – I think I’d dislocate something twerking. Then again, I KNOW I dislocate jerking. I’m just such a loose-y goose-y I am 😉
How would you have captioned the “jerk” tank? “Don’t be one, do one.”
Do you like to WOD in plain shirts or ones with sayings? Mine usually have sayings but they’re usually marathon shirts. I feel a little self-conscious doing a WOD in a Tshirt that says something because I suck so badly. I do have them, though. I’m waiting. 😉
Have you ever worn an article of clothing everyday for a month? Close…..do love my “WOD Angels” sweatshirt – 🙂 Tres comfy! 🙂

I’m a fan of the old adage: “i clean, i jerk, i have a nice snatch”. I’d have captioned the shirt that way.
