In the spirit of decluttering and organizing for the new year, let’s talk about activewear. We all have that drawer in our closet with leggings, tanks, and sports bras that start to pile up. Most likely, you haven’t really looked through everything that’s in there in a while or sorted out the pieces you’re still wearing from the things you’ve held on to for a little too long. If you’re clearing things out and plan on looking for a few new pieces to add, I thought I’d gather the best of activewear at the moment to help you find what you’re shopping for.
P.S. Lululemon sizing can be confusing if you’re new to the brand, so I included a note with every style to help you find the right size.
Zip-Up Jacket: This is the best activewear top/jacket I’ve ever owned. It’s buttery soft and perfect for throwing on in the mornings. SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew jackets and take this one in a size 6 or 8. (Both work.) It’s very fitted!
Long Sleeve T-Shirt: My favorite activewear top in the long sleeve version! Love that it’s sweat-wicking and has thumbholes. If you’re looking for something similar with a relaxed fit, this shirt is great (it’s also the one pictured in the collage). SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew tops and wear this t-shirt in a size 6. For the relaxed long sleeve, I take a 4 or 6.
Short Sleeve T-Shirt: Again, the best activewear t-shirt I’ve ever owned. It’s pricey, but it’s so comfortable and breathable, and it’s very cute, so you could easily wear it all day. SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew tops and wear this t-shirt in a size 6.
Tank: Such a good tank it’s seamless, breathable, and sweat-wicking. Plus, it looks great layered under a zip-up jacket. SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew tops and wear this t-shirt in a size 6.
Sports Bra: Looking for the best sports bra ever? Look no further because this is it. It’s so soft that I often will sleep in it. This style is also great and has a little more support. SIZING: I’m a size 34A and took it in a size 6.
Shorts: My favorite leggings in a shorts version! I like the 6” style the best. SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew bottoms and take this in a size 4 or 6, but I definitely find the 6 to be comfiest.
Black Leggings: Trust me, these are buttery soft and so comfortable. I’ve tried leggings from so many other brands and can say nothing on the market compared to these. Nine times out of ten, these are the leggings I’m wearing. SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew bottoms and take this in a size 4 or 6, but I definitely find the 6 to be comfiest.
Leggings with Pockets: The same buttery soft fit as the leggings above but with pockets! SIZING: Runs small. I wear a size 2 in J.Crew bottoms and take this in a size 4 or 6, but I definitely find the 6 to be comfiest.
Winter Leggings: I heavily rely on these fleece-lined leggings for those extremely cold days in Chicago. SIZING: True to size.
Sneakers: I have a similar pair and love them! They’re super cute and great for my morning walks with the girls on days where the weather is nice or even a summer bike ride.
Hat: This style has so many raving reviews. If you’re in need of a new baseball cap, this one would be great!
