My Favorite Activewear!

Updated: Jul 24, 2020

I basically live in activewear - whether I’m teaching in my studio, running errands, driving carpool, or just being at home! It’s my daily uniform and I am always on the lookout for outfits that are cute for everyday wear and also functional for LEVELING UP. With so many activewear brands on the market, it can be tricky to figure out which ones are really worth it, so today I’m sharing all of my favs with you! We all know that a cute new workout outfit equals a better workout, right?! So let’s LEVEL UP and look cute while doing it!

Carbon38

I am excited to announce that I am now a Carbon38 Ambassador and member of Team38!

Spiritual Gangster

From leggings to tops and tanks, Spiritual Gangster has it all. These pieces are so stylish, comfortable, and flattering, not to mention they come in a wide variety of fun colors and graphics that really resonate with me. Perfect for working out and everyday lifestyle too! One of the things I love about SG is that when you shop with them, you’ll be making a difference as you shop. On their website it states: “For every item we sell through Spiritualgangster.com, we donate proceeds to provide a meal to a person in need through our partnership with Feeding America.” How amazing is that? Even MORE of a reason to shop with SG!

Free People Movement

Although Free People is typically known for their boho-style clothing, I am obsessed with their activewear line! A few of my favorites are the Good Karma Bra Top and Leggings. I love that FP Movement is crazy comfy, extremely flattering, and reasonably priced compared to a lot of other activewear brands.

Alo

Alo is seriously a game changer. Their activewear is some of the best on the market, plus this company is all about inspiring community and mindful movement ~ two things that I LOVE to support! If you’re looking for a more classic but fashionable look, be sure to check out Alo. They offer everything from leggings to pullovers and sports bras. You really can’t go wrong here!

Goldsheep

This fun, eye-catching activewear brand has something for every vibe and every occasion. I LOVE getting festive with my leggings and Goldsheep helps me do just that! They have everything from holiday leggings, seasonal-inspired colors and prints, and happy hour patterns. So FUN! Be sure to check out their website every few months for new releases.

Onzie

If you’re looking for a cute, environmentally conscious brand, Onzie is perfect for you! They feature lots of beautiful patterns and animal print leggings, tops, and sports bras. Check out the new masks they recently added to their website ~ perfect for staying healthy and safe, while still looking cute (these come in kids sizes too)!

Activewear Accessories

ToeSox

If you know me, you know that I swear by my ToeSox! These non-slip grippy socks are comfy, cute, and absolutely perfect for any Pilates-style workout. They’re high-quality and extremely durable, made with organic cotton, and even come in kid’s sizes so you and your little ones can LEVEL UP in style together!

NUX: The Pinnacle Bra

Sports bras are a key part of any activewear wardrobe, but finding one with the right balance of comfort, style, and support is a challenge! The Pinnacle Bra does it all - It features a wide band for ultimate support, a deep V-neck, and a racerback, perfect for wearing under activewear tanks. This bra comes in a variety of colors, including the ever-essential nude!

The Handful Bra

What I love about the Handful Bra is that you can completely customize the straps. You can make them a cross-back, halter, or a normal bra strap depending on what you’re wearing over it. They give great support and a nice shape under tops.

Blush Lingerie: Thong Underwear

This is the BEST underwear to wear under leggings! I prefer the “micro” fabric versus the “mesh”- the micro fabric is silky and disappears under even your tightest pair of leggings. It is also the most comfortable and affordable pair of thong underwear that I have ever found!

Beyond Active- Shop Local! Support a Small Women-Owned Business!

Beyond Active, located right in downtown Danville, carries SO many of my favorite activewear brands included in this blog. Actually, at Beyond Active is where I first discovered so many of these items that are now staples in my activewear wardrobe! They even carry activewear for the kids and men in your life too! The owner, of Beyond Active, Courtney, is a good friend and has filled her adorable shop with amazing brands! I absolutely love supporting another local, women-run small businesses whenever possible! Beyond Active is seriously the best of the best so make sure you check them out and follow them on Instagram too! @shopbeyondactive
