Every winter, I add a couple new cold weather training pieces to my stash and this winter was no different. I've had trouble finding really good, warm winter tops the last couple years, so I decided to try Athleta's Whittier Peak Half Zip this year. This style recently went on sale, so it's the perfect time to pick one up if it's been on your mind. Before you do, here are some ...

Athleta Velocity Stash Pocket Tights Review
Athleta's bottoms have been rock solid for me lately, and their new SwiftLite fabric caught my eye. Enter the velocity tights. I wanted a pair of lightweight, summer-friendly run tights and these fit the bill. Plus, the coastal teal color option really pushed me over the edge. Sure enough, these are another winner for me.

Athleta Elation Tights + Capris Review
The elation lineup is one of Athleta's newest additions to their Powervita collection. The elation leggings are designed with simplicity in mind, forgoing any decorative seams or extra elements.

Athleta Stripe Salutation Tight Review

A lot of people have said that powervita is similar to lululemon's nulu, except ...

I purchased these in XXS, my usual size in Athleta. In my opinion, they fit true to size. The fabric is mid-weight with good compression. The compression feels similar to lululemon's luxtreme. The fabric feels slightly thicker than ...
Athleta Luxe Stronger Hoodie Review
A few months back, I shared my review of the stronger hoodie from Athleta and how much I love mine. Athleta also makes a version of the same hoodie with plush faux fur lining, dubbed the luxe stronger hoodie. Of course I had to try it! By the way: the luxe stronger hoodie is on sale, so if you want to wear it as a jacket for chilly spring days (and hold onto it for next winter!), you can save ...
