Fitness goes fashionable and fierce!
Ready to get ship shape in the New Year? Or at least look stylish while trying? Active and performance wear have reached new (fitness) levels of chic. These lifestyle looks can take you from the yoga studio to shopping with the girls, from a beach workout to outdoor cafe. Remember style is just as important as fit and fabric! So let’s get moving!
Don’t Sweat It
There’s nothing “tracky” about today’s modern sweat suits. Their appeal? Two form fitting pieces (jackets and pants) in special fabrics with unique details. Couture Active Wear leads in comfy lounge wear with beautiful luxe detailing! Their Raw Edge jacket has kangaroo front pockets, hood and a swirling heart design on the back. The matching pants repeat the design on the back pockets. Made in USA of ECO-Friendly light weight fleece (80% cotton / 20% hemp), this combo looks sweet with spaghetti strap tank or workout halter bra. For a footwear option, consider Metabolize Shape-ups from Skechers. These black suede lace-ups are the newest rage and ideal for the seasoned athlete or casually active. Best of all, by sporting them you are getting a workout---they make you use more energy in every step.
Grace Under Pressure
Zobha is known for its fantastic fit (by supporting the body without confining it) and performance fabric (superior moisture wicking and breathability). Their signature Grace top (Zobha is the Sanskrit word for Grace) is a serious tank for a serious workout (and seriously cute). Feminine and flattering on every body, it makes a statement both in and out of class. Pair it with a signature hip Flared pant, perfect for practice or play. Top this black and white look with a rhumba red asymmetrical jacket in plush French terry. With design details like an oversized collar and cuffs wear this anywhere, anytime to elevate your grace. No pressure.
Beach Babe
To channel your inner Ironman (or woman!) why not suit up in a floral workout bikini? Think J-Lo tri-athlete terrific in a TYR two-piece hibiscus bikini. Stretch, swim, jog or just walk on beach--hopefully while on your winter tropical getaway or the lap pool. Keep all your accessories--flip-flops, sun block, shades, towel, water bottle in a hot pink mesh bag. As the sun sets, throw on a guard long sleeve tee and red signature athletic pants. Beachy keen.
Short and Sweet
Show off your toned legs and your cutting-edge sensibility in Couture Active Wear cargo shorts. Real cargo pockets and logo buttons give this short major detail! Put it together with their designer plaid print belt loop bra. The two-tone contrast straps and extra wide support band earn top marks in both function and fashion. Go for the gold in TYR’s gold trimmed athletic shorts and matching signature jacket. Be in a shoe-in with SKECHERS Sleek Fit Shape-ups tan leather Mary Janes.
Dress it Up
Zobha’s magenta Jayne dress is an elegant change of pace. Built for comfort and support, wear this dress in the studio, gym or on the tennis court. Made of a high performing fabric that allows for maximum moisture management, it looks lovely paired with leggings. Another option? After your workout, pair the dress with some ballet flats, a wrap cardigan and hit the town.
Yoga and Beyond
A true lifestyle collection, Beyond Yoga is designed to wear in lightweight layers, which allows for chic and easy transitions from carpool to a morning yoga class, or lunch with friends. They believe in making women look and feel their best! So these separates can be paired with jeans and t-shirts or dressed up with cashmere. Totally on trend--a one-shoulder cami in lemon--works out well with a knee length legging in black. Blue and white is always a winning combination. Their white rib tank (flattering to all shapes and sizes) and true navy Original Pant can be topped with a Pima Wrap Sweater in blue ice. Complete the look with SKECHERS Jump Start Shape-ups, a lace-up sneaker in (what else?) blue and white mesh and leather.
