Wearing workout clothes that make you feel good makes a huge difference in your motivation and confidence. That's true of women of all sizes! More active fashion brands are taking note and stepping up to the plate by offering an extended range of sizing options.

A Little Dirt Never Hurt
A couple weeks ago, I bought and reviewed a pair of white crops. Buying white clothing is pretty risky all by itself. But then I did something even crazier: I wore those white crops on a hike. Outside. In the dirt. Yes, they got dirty, but nothing that didn't come out in the wash. I wore them because I wanted to, and I tried not to worry about the fact that they're white.

When brands do, the bags that result seem like an afterthought that ...
K-Deer Jamie Stripes Review

At first, I was worried such bold stripes would look too clownish, but once I wore them, there was no going back. They are so bright and fun that it's hard not to love how they look. I wrote in a ...
