K-Deer

K-Deer is home to the world’s most colorful exercise pants. But aside from their bold looks, they feature a seamless front, and SUPER high waist – great muffin top control. They’re available in capri, 7/8 (aka petite girl friendly – I’m 5 feet), and ankle length. I wear these pants constantly to the Bar Method and I think they would also perform well in yoga and pilates classes. Consider this your warning: compliments will roll in when you walk down the street in these standout designs. Read more about ’em here. Fit: True to size – as seen in XS capri length.

Sweaty Betty

The “bum-sculping” pants by Sweaty Betty are the real deal. They suck you in in all the right places while simultaneously accentuating your curves. The material is thick and provides excellent rear coverage…like I wear them with crop tops and am not-self-conscious of dimpling or the appearance of cellulite. I’m obsessed with the 7/8 length (they fit me like regular ankle length leggings) as well as the handy side pocket perfect for your phone! But don’t take my word for it, get a pair here and take them for a test drive at your barre or F45 class. Fit: True to size – as seen in XS 7/8 length.

Alo Yoga

How is this my first pair of All Yoga leggings?! When I slip into these buttery things I forget I am even wearing ’em. They feel like an extension of your body. Anyway, I have been living in this blush pair and I’m V impressed with the coverage. Have you ever tried on a pair of light colored leggings only to grimace at the sight of rippling skin? I have…but NOT with this pair. Hallelujah! I wear these hot pant to the Bar Method, on the plane, and out to lunch. The high-waist airlift leggings double as chic loungewear. Fit: True to size – as seen in XS 7/8 length.

CRZ Yoga

Whoa, whoa, WHOA! I cannot believe the quality and comfort of these Amazon “knock off” workout pants. I had my doubts but the 4.5 star reviews convinced me to give them a try. For nearly a QUARTER of the cost of the others, these leggings are suitable for all of your sporty activities. I’ve worn them at the barre, for a jog, and to the sweatiest class of my life, F45. They passed the test with flying colors. I can assure you you will not find a more versatile, attractive, and comfortable set for only $45. Fit: True to size – as seen in XS 7/8 length.

NOYA

If you’re new to my blog, allow me to explain my connection to Louisiana. I am a proud LSU Alum – Geaux Tigers! But I got more than my education down on the bayou…I got the southern gentleman of my dreams to marry me! Although presently a California girl, I still have an appreciation for the Louisianian culture. New Orleans Yoga Apparel (NOYA) is singlehandedly spreading New Orleans flair across the country and I’m lovin’ it! If you’ve never experienced a craw fish boil in person, take the party to Pilates in these precious pants. There are no words. Never mind the snow ball print (why hasn’t someone opened a stand in SF?!). The list goes on but you should really click here to see the designs for yourself. Words do not do them justice.

The Fit

Now let’s talk about the fit. The older I get the higher I like my pants to rise! Ha! Luckily for me these suckers feature a foldable high rise waistband. I don’t bother rolling it down because I like when my pants make my wanna be abs feel tighter! As far as the fabric, it stretches with you. This is something I do not take for granted. Whether I am stretching at the bar or jogging to and fro these pants stay in place. They are lightweight yet they provide ample coverage. They have passed the peek-a-boo stretch test – they are NOT see-through! I am wearing the full length leggings, but rolled them up to accommodate my shorter than average sticks. Other patterns are available in capri length. Now do you believe me when I say, I workout to satisfy my sweet tooth?! Be sure to tune into Instagram tonight for a chance to win a pair of NOYA leggings of your choice!

I cannot speak for you, but new workout clothes motivate me to move! I am dying to dabble in the mesh pant trend and now that these bottoms are on sale, it’s quite tempting to pull the trigger. On the other hand, can we talk about these Nike sneakers?! Nike has forever been my go-to brand for athletic shoes. I am crazy about this pair because they double as workout shoes and athleisure wear.

Blush is the new beige. No really though, it has been around for the past couple of years and it is not going anywhere. I love it because you can wear it as a neutral or a statement piece. I am diggin’ this mesh long sleeve top. But can we talk about the white Alo Yoga pants?! I used to think there was no way in hell that I’d workout in white but as long as the top is the right length I am willing to reconsider. There is no better time to step out of the box than during a sale!

Leather leggings…need I say more?! During the winter I pretty much live in faux leather leggings but I have yet to workout in a pair. Well, well, well…these stunners by Koral are sleek and chic! And if you wear them to and fro, I am confident no one will notice. This is the kind of versatility worth investing in! What trend in activewear are you curious to try?!

If you didn’t think that color-blocking existed in the activewear space, you would be wrong. Check out the Peace Pant leggings in olive. These full length pants feature multicolored panels keeping things interesting while you work out. Pair them with a black tank and stay cool.

From fitted racerbacks, crop tops, strappy bras, to low-back tees, Onzie has got it all. I am particularly enamored with the Navy Hamsa tank. This pretty little thing features a mosaic print front and low-back design. Pair this piece with a Chic Bra Top and leave everyone in class with strap envy.

 
Who doesn’t love a pair of pants that can go from the studio to the streets with little to no effort?! That is exactly what you will get out of the Bell Pant in Warm Tribal. These 70’s inspired bottoms are stretchy enough for the studio, and groovy enough for a night on the town. Style them with a solid tank, and cover up after class in a leather jacket.
