7 Athleisure Looks for the New Year

It’s that time of the year when I’m getting back into eating healthy and moving my body but also I’m a little fluffy from after the holidays and it’s COLD. Today I’m sharing some of my favorite pieces that can go from a light workout straight into my day.

I’m a huge fan of buying styles that fit my body well and really last. When it comes to athleisure I tend to go for Athleta, Vuori, Lululemon and Amazon brands. Just in the past season have I gotten out of my leggings and joggers and have tried a few more of the wide leg and flare styles.

What I can’t stand though are pants without pockets or rolling waistbands so I’m always on the hunt for those features.

For reference I’m 5’5, size 12, 38DD. I list the sizes I’m wearing below each image and give my fit tips based on my previous experience with the brand and on the size guides provided.

This is also the time of year I take stock of my sneakers. I like a neutral comfy sneaker that I can wear for a walk, light workout or just everyday life. Nearly all sneakers I size up 1/2 to have some room for socks. Here are a few of my favorite styles.
