There is something so good about new workout clothes. I mentioned this on Instagram last week but I’ve been in a bit of a fitness rut. I was seeing my trainer 2-3x a week and not doing much else. I needed to get out of my rut! I had been thinking about joining Equinox for a while, and finally did so on Friday. The new one on Park Ave and 24th street is SO nice, complete with a room for heated yoga and Pilates. Having hot yoga included in my gym membership makes the price worth it for me… (as does having a gym that is only a few blocks away – I am a creature of convenience and don’t like to walk very far to get my workout in). The steam room also incentivizes me… it’s definitely my favorite part of going to the gym. 😉
Anyway, here are a few of my favorite workout things. From things I’d like to have (this Nike tee) to things I already have and love (these Beyond Yoga leggings are the best, as is this Old Navy tee!) Getting to the gym is half the battle, and having cute outfits to wear helps with that part. I also included my favorite natural deodorant. Deodorant is one of my non-negotiable all natural products and this one really, truly, actually works. (You can read a more thorough review of Agent Nateur here… it’s the best.)

I’ve wanted a Swell bottle since forever, and that marble pattern is my favourite yet.

I love their water bottles so much – they keep your water so cold, and they’re also really pretty.
New workout clothes make me equally happy!! I LOVE Beyond Yoga pants too… they’re so comfy, and I’ve also had a lot of success at Athleta… they clearly take a woman with curves in mind, and love some of the pants that now have pockets. Amazingly helpful!

pockets in workout leggings = the absolute best!!!
Agreed on Athleta! My favorite workout top is the Athleta Chi tank in tall. I’m only 5’4″ but I like the extra length to cover my booty a bit and so it doesn’t rise up during down dog 🙂
ooh I had no idea they make tall tops – that is key!!
I love the color blocked leggings. Thee gray and black parts look amazing together.

me too!!!
I have a couple Nike versions of the T back tank and I LOVE them – especially for the summertime! The new steam room & sauna at my gym is totally a motivator for me too! I haven’t quite figured out the best way to make use of it for skin care – wash face first? after? exfoliate? etc…. any tips?! (Don’t worry, I know how to relax in there for sure!)
You know, I actually have no idea!! I don’t wear makeup to the gym so my skin is pretty clean. Common sense/logic tells me to wash your face first if you still have makeup on so that you don’t sweat it off while in the steam room. I always shower right away after and I think that’s probably the most important thing – to rinse off all the stuff you just sweated out. Hope that helps?
I don’t know if you saw this, but over the weekend the Agent Nateur CEO got into a fight on instagram with a woman. The CEO had posted a story about how women marching in the post-inauguration marches should make sure they’re living up to standards of fairness in their own lives, and that those who didn’t are cu***. A customer, Karlie, posted that she wouldn’t be purchasing AN products anymore because of that video, and the CEO came on her page and not only said she didn’t take back using the c-word, but also threatened to sue Karlie. It was really shocking conduct and definitely turned me off the brand. Given your posts since the inauguration, I thought you might want to know – screenshots of the CEO’s posts are at https://instagram.com/p/BRgRZpzl4mO/
Oh my GOD – I can’t believe this happened – and am SO sad because I really love their products. Totally crazy, thank you for sharing. I also really love the Schmidt’s stick – maybe I will stick to that from now on. So bummed out by this. 🙁
Equinox is THE BEST. It’s pricey but totally worth it for the classes and amenities. I’m biased because I teach there but seriously, you’ll be so happy you joined. Metcon3 is one of my fave HIIT classes, check it out. Enjoy!
I completely agree. The amenities are so wonderful. I will check out Metcon3! xx
Do you know of any shops in NYC that sell Agent Nateur? I always pop into natural beauty stores to check when I see them, but I have yet to find it!
Thanks 🙂
Oh gosh you know, I don’t!!! Maybe Credo? Or maybe CAP Beauty? I always just order mine online from Levert 🙂
