Cool Summer Workout Duds

Oh yes, I’m shopping for more workout clothes. It’s not as so much an obsession as a way of building confidence (at least that’s what I tell myself), and wearing great pieces just makes me want to get to the gym and show stuff off. If you’re looking for some slightly eclectic pieces, here are my top sources for amazing workout wear:

1. Cool Hemp/Cotton Sweats: These embroidered trousers are a dream. I’m usually not the white-liking type, but I’m willing to give these a try on account that I’ve been staring at them all week long!

2. Organic Cotton Palazzo Pants: Oooh, I love a good pair of wide-legged pants for relaxing and stretching.

3. Doce Vida Buzios Ballet Top: What an awesome top that combines bright colors and black! I’d layer it underneath my super support bras with wide straps that almost look like another top altogether.

4. Golda’s Sophisticated Top: I love Brazilian workout gear, and these tops actually bring something new to the workout world. Say “bye” to your tees and pick up these gorgeous selections with asymmetrical lines.

5. Nike’s Loose-Fit Women’s Workout Shorts: These amazing shorts are a nice compromise when you are hunting for something that’s a little softer and forgiving, but still hard-wearing for intense sessions.
