Let’s face it – we spend at least half our lives in activewear, so it’s time to ditch the fading sweatpants and promo tees for gear that’s functional AND sexy.
1. The classic t-shirt
You know those moments when you have ‘nothing to wear’? Well, you don’t have to overthink your outfit if your wardrobe is stocked with a classic white tee. Easy basics can take you anywhere from boxing, to brunch and on to the bar. Want to shake it up a little? Go for a graphic basic that’ll look just as good with a pair of jeans as it does with your gym tights.
2. A fun sports bra
Is it supportive? Check. Does it keep things in check when you’re a hot sweaty mess? Check. Think of your sports bra as your boob’s BFF.
3. Fashionable yet functional shoes
From morning runs to coffee dates, these shoes do it all. Sleek, stylish and versatile enough to match your whole closet – these are the kicks you didn’t know you needed, until now.

4. The perfect legging
Some days just call for leggings, right? Comfy, stretchy and they hug your body in all the right places. What’s not to love?
5. The jacket
One moment it’s sunny and the next it’s windy or worse… raining! Yeah, nothing kills outdoor workout plans faster than temperamental spring weather. Enter the ‘wind-breaker’. It’s a life-saver!

6. A pullover
Hands up if all you want to do after a really tough workout is to slip into to something comfy and dry? Stash your sweaty gear in a Ziploc bag and change into a cosy sweater so that you can totally ‘Netflix and chill’ on the couch.
7. A cute backpack
You don’t always need to lug a massive duffle bag with you. A cute backpack can fit all your essentials, while keeping your hands free so you can grab a post-workout smoothie and check your Insta at the same time.
