I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been shopping for cute, preppy activewear and said to myself, “what’s so hard about creating something cute, feminine, and fun to work out in, people?!” My favorite athleisure brands created great basics, but where was the fun? I’ve always tried to channel my inner Elle Woods in all aspects of life. “Hi, I’m Elle Woods and this is Bruiser Woods. We’re both Gemini vegetarians.” 😂 True story: my first resumé out of nursing school was on pink paper. I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t use Legally Blonde for inspiration. To quote Elle, “It’s pink and it’s scented. It gives it a little something extra, don’t you think?” And you know what? I nailed that interview! 💁🏼♀️🎀
Luckily, a lot of my favorite brands are upping the ante with preppy workout lines this year. Working on my fitness was one of my New Year’s resolutions, and I’ve definitely incorporated more cardio into my workouts. While I’ve always loved barre classes, I was missing the cardio component. I’ve been skiing, playing tennis, and going to Zumba and hip hop classes. Part of the motivation of going to work out is looking and feeling good! And if you can channel your inner Elle Woods while you’re at it, well then you’re golden, sister!
