Striped leggings are a staple of my active wardrobe--I'm always willing to add another pair to my collection. I had tried two pairs of Athleta's powervita tights before and neither worked, but these stripe salutations lured me in for another try. This pair finally makes it clear what all the fuss is about! A lot of people have said that powervita is similar to lululemon's nulu, except ...

Athleta Powervita Marble Salutation Tight Review
Athleta debuted their powervita fabric last year, as an answer to lululemon's nulu fabric. It's designed primarily with yoga in mind, and aims for an ultra-soft, ultra-flexible feel while still being technical. I first tried Athleta's powervita fabric on their mesh salutation tight. I didn't write about it on the blog when I tried them, but they were a bust for me. The fit through the lower ...
Cold Weather Run Tights Reviews: Patagonia + Oiselle + Athleta
As I promised in my cold weather tops rundown, I'm back with the bottom half of my cold weather gear investigating. I plan to continue testing more cold weather styles as winter wears on (including some of lululemon's recent releases), so these first two posts are just a start! Keep your eye out. This post features a lot of pockets, so for reference, the phone I'm using in these photos is my ...

I bought these in my usual Alala size, XS. They fit mostly true to size, except they seem a tad bit loose through the hips. If you're between sizes, I'd lean towards going down a size. The main fabric is a ...
Werkshop Unicorn Leggings
It finally happened: unicorn workout leggings! I've seen a few pairs floating around out there, but if I was going to get a pair of unicorns, I wanted them to be just right. Werkshop is my go-to brand for high quality printed workout bottoms and they finally released the unicorns this summer. I like Werkshop's take on the unicorn design because it captures the fantastical elements of unicorns ...
Lululemon Free to Be Serene Bra + Boysenberry Align Crops
Free to be serene bra Lululemon doesn't offer many sports bras for larger cup sizes, and when they do, the designs tend not to be too exciting. I like the free to be serene bra since it's a cute, strappy design made with somewhat larger cup sizes in mind. I bought one to try in basic black since I've found myself looking for black bras in my drawer a lot lately. Lululemon advertises this bra ...
