Workout Clothing

Many of my fitness friends ask me where I get some of my workout attire. Workout clothes are hard to find unless you know where to look. And before I was introduced to some great workout clothing lines by my instructor, I was wearing those old navy tanks that would shrink and fade in the wash and that would permanently smell of b.o. I think if you workout on a consistent basis, whether that be outside sports or inside a gym, it's good to put a little investment into your clothing. Because workout clothes definitely go through a lot--with sweat, frequent washs, etc. And when you workout (especially in a gym), you want to be comfortable and lookin' good. Here are a few of my favorite lines. I have pieces from each line and wear them often:

KOS*USA clothing--their pants are my favorite. They fit really well. The black fabric hold it's color through weekly washes. The criss cross top is really cute and holds everything in place (runs small).

OH MY BOD--their website is not the best but their pieces are very well made. They have some of the best cami sport bras. I wear them all the time under my workout tops.

Athleta--this is a line own by Gap, inc. Their bermuda shorts are great for the summer time.
Couture Active Wear--this line brings streetwear to active wear. All the pieces are very fashionable. A lot of the pants have belts or detailing on the back. The tulip halter top is one of my favorite.
