I work out about five times a week. It’s been my saving grace when trying to deal with an extremely stressful job and has helped me to stay active and fit. And while I would love to be head-to-toe in the latest lululemon trends, it’s just not financially nor practically feasible. Since most of my workout wear ends up sweaty and in the hamper, I need quantity over quality. Lately, I’ve been really impressed with Forever 21’s Activewear line, which seems to be growing every time I visit one of their locations. Keep reading to see some of my favorites from their collection!
More often than not, by the time I leave a cardio class, I have tied a knot in my workout top because I’m sweaty and it just gets in the way. This tank has drawstrings on both sides which will alleviate that problem.
I have a Brandy Melville tank that reads, “I Hate Everyone” and I swear I get more comments on that at the gym than anything else I wear. I’m a big believer in making exercise fun and laughing at yourself along the way. With this tank, you can definitely have a good time!
If you want a form-fitting tank, this one is for you! It comes in an array of colors and is less than $11. You could buy four or five of them for the price of one lululemon tank.
You wear cute bras for a reason. Show ’em off with this tank. Plus, since most of my tops are drenched in the back post-workout, this will help keep you dry. Drier, I mean.
Speaking of bras, this one has a very cool back and has adjustable straps. All of Forever 21’s sports bras are marked with various impact/support levels. So whether you’re doing yoga or HIIT, you’re sure to find a bra for your needs.
This bra is adorable. Can I say that about a bra? Well I guess I just did.
Twist-Front Heathered Pullover
This pullover is perfect to wear before and after a pilates or barre class. Because you need to look cute going into and leaving the gym. Celebrity-status.
Another option, post-gym style, is this top. Wear a bright-colored sports bra and/or tank underneath and you’re brunch-ready.
Heathered Mesh-Paneled Capri Leggings
I think that sexiness is all about showing off just a little bit of skin but then leaving the rest up to the imagination. “What’s she hiding under those pants? Oh, it’s just her kneecaps.” All kidding aside, I have these pants and they’re great. One of my favorites.
Colorblocked Athletic Capri Leggings
If you’re not a fan of neon, go get some help. Just kidding! These are the perfect pair of leggings for you. You can wear these with black, white or navy. Throw a baseball cap on and you’re Sporty Spice.
High Tech Side-Pocket Leggings
I love the side-stitching all the way down the length of these pants. There’s also a pocket on the side which looks like it will fit your iPhone. Unless you have a 6+. That thing won’t fit anywhere.
And that’s all I have for you today! I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed putting it together for you. Happy running/spinning/dancing/jumping/whatevering!
