Health and Fitness Favorites- Fashion

Hello everyone!  I have been wanting to do a check in for health and fitness for awhile now.  Honestly, health-wise, I've never felt better!  I've been feeling strong, motivated, fresh, and happy, and I think that there are several things that I can point to that have Hello everyone!  With that in mind, I would like to start a health and fitness series on my blog again!  I have several go-to items that have been helping me succeed.  This article will be all about some of my favorite fitness 'fashion' items!

Okay, so I realize that you are probably scratching your head right now thinking "fitness fashion? Who cares!?!".  Believe it or not, but if you can feel good while you are working out, the chances are that you'll continue to do it.  Now, I know it's kind of an investment to buy clothes that you are just going to get sweaty in, but if you have some of the right items, you can also improve your performance!

Anyway, here is a collage of some of my fitness fashion favorites! Enjoy!

1) Pull-over sweatshirts are not only important for those cool-weather days, but they're also great for the casual, California lounge look that I have been loving lately.  Go for a pastel-ish color for more of that great "from-the-beach" vibe.  http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=top_sweatshirts_hoodie&ProductID=2076574410&VariantID=

2) Sunglasses are an absolute must for any outdoor activity.  I absolutely could not run without sunglasses.  Even if it is not particularly sunny, they are a great form of protection from dust/wind. Make sure to find ones that have 100% UVA/UVB protection though! :) http://www.icueyewear.com/icu/Sunglasses/classic-with-light-temple-8802-icu-tortoise

3) Shorts are, of course, another must have item for fitness fashion.  These are not only practical/functional, but they would also be cute paired with a regular tee in the summertime! http://www.tillys.com/tillys/variants.aspx?prod=193331931&ctlg=020_Girls&cid=1069&source=1&size=

4) Tank tops are another staple in fitness fashion.  I always look for ones that are breathable and cute.  Bright colors are also a must!  http://www.target.com/p/C9-by-Champion-Womens-Long-Lean-Running-Tank/-/A-13565247

5) Great tennis shoes are also essential for proper exercise.  Asics is a great brand for all kinds of sports.  This is the style that I have been drooling over in particular!  http://www.asicsamerica.com/footwear/running-shoes/gel-cirrus33-t285n-womens/

6) Yoga leggings are another essential fitness fashion piece.  I am personally addicted to leggings in general for even everyday wear!  They are also great for the 'California' casual style too ;) http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=promo_sport&ProductID=2062097106&VariantID=

7) Another great option for a pull-over!  I honestly think this would be super cute paired with leggings and some tennis shoes!  (Almost too cute to get sweaty in, but it would make a nice option to just throw on over your tank top as you're leaving the gym) http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=top_sweatshirts_hoodie&ProductID=2008586056&VariantID=

Well, that's it for my fashion segment!  Stay tuned for my food section which is coming next!  :)  If you have any specific requests or questions, please be sure to leave a comment below!  <3
