The Workout Apparel Essentials Every Active Woman Needs


Leotards were 80s. Sweatpants were 90s. And we all know today’s workout apparel craze is athleisure. But it’s tricky picking fashionable fitness clothes that also look great outside of the gym.

To start building a workout wardrobe worthy of that task, you’ve got to stock up on essentials. (Think LBD or classic white tee.) Get inspired by these items every active woman needs.
