If you love athletic wear that actually has some personality, these are worth a look.

Right now on Poshmark, you can grab a pair of brand new, never worn FILA Black Leggings with a pastel rainbow logo for just $10 — still tagged and ready to wear. The same style runs $21.99 on Amazon, so you're saving more than half off retail on a genuinely cute pair of leggings.

Pastel FILA Logo

What makes them stand out from basic black leggings? The pastel FILA logo down the lower leg in mint, lavender, yellow, and pink gives them that retro athletic energy that's been all over streetwear and athleisure for the past few seasons. 

They're not trying too hard — it's a subtle pop of color on an otherwise clean, classic silhouette. The fabric is 93% cotton, 7% spandex, so they're soft and comfortable with enough stretch to actually move in.

Size XL, new with tags, and honestly priced to sell fast.

Review of When Repeated Lies Feel True by W.B. Hazel

When Repeated Lies Feel True! 
(#affiliate)

I've spent a lot of time paying attention to how people think, including myself, so I wasn't looking for a wake-up call when I picked this up. I was looking for language. This book gave me that — a clean, well-organized framework for patterns I'd already noticed but never had precise words for.

Does This Book Actually Teach You Anything New?

Yes — even if you're already self-aware, it gives you precise language for things you've been observing but couldn't quite name.

The real cases help. The Central Park Five. Colin Powell. They're not there to shock you. They're there to show you something you probably already suspected — that these mental patterns don't care how smart or careful you are.


4 things this book made me think about

  1. 1Being smart doesn't protect you — it can make things worseIntelligence doesn't shield you from being misled. It gives your brain better tools to defend ideas you already believe, whether those ideas are right or not.
  2. 2Repetition turns claims into facts without you noticingHear something often enough and it starts to feel true. The book calls this the illusory truth effect, and once you know what it is, you start spotting it everywhere.
  3. 3Belonging is powerful enough to quietly change what you believeSometimes you don't adopt a belief because of evidence. You adopt it because disagreeing with the people around you costs too much socially. The book is honest about how invisible that pressure can be.
  4. 4Shame shuts down thinking — safety opens it back upWhen you feel attacked or embarrassed, your brain stops being curious and starts protecting itself. Real reflection only happens when it feels safe enough to question without being judged.

What I appreciate most is that the author doesn't talk down to you. There's no assumption that you've been fooled or that you need saving. It reads like it was written for people who are already paying attention and just want a better map.

Final Thoughts: Is When Repeated Lies Feel True Worth Reading? 

Yes, It's a well-written, thought-provoking book on how mental gymnastics work in real life. 

I finished it with sharper questions than I started with, and for a book about thinking, that feels exactly right. If you've ever watched someone believe something that makes no sense and wondered how that happens — this book is worth your time. It might not surprise you. But it might give you better words for what you've already been seeing.
