High End Workout Buys

High end workout buys


Well as my budget workout was so popular that I thought I would do a bit more imaginary workout shopping. Trying to save for the future makes my desire to blow all my money on an really awesome workout wardrobe!

How amazing are these trainers? I absolutely love the Mary Katrantzou/Adidas line and I love these turquoise palm and tropical print.
I'm also loving this vintage style nike jumper-perfect to throw on over my gym kit on my way home from a workout-although not technically high end this jumper is still currently out of my budget.
The leopard print rucksack is another adidas delight-this time design by Stella McCartney. I think the monochrome would work well with most outfits.
The sports bra is from Lorna Jane- I've been told that their sports bras are supportive and give ladies a nice little bit of padding to give a more feminine figure.
Below I've selected this yoga top from Sweaty Betty-I love their quality of sportswear and this colour is lovely.
Finally these Lucas Hugh tights have the most amazing print-at £270 they are most definitely high end and only in my wardrobe if I win the lottery but really a girl can dream.

What would be in your dream wardrobe? Do you prefer high end of budget to update your outfits?

Budget Workout Wardrobe Update

Budget Workout Wardrobe Update
Have you heard the well used phrase of to find your motivation you should treat yourself to new workout gear? Well I think this is constantly on my mind as I am constantly looking at workout clothes and as I am trying to be better with money I thought I would show you my picks of the best budget clothes. With fitness being so fashionable the high street has some amazing pieces around. Here what I would choose if my wardrobe wasn't bursting: (L-R)

1. This misguided vest looks so cute. I love the detailing on the back and think it would look amazing through a heavy weight session. I love the fit and the colour-a great top I think.

2. I love this purple new look top, it reminds me of a dupe for the lovely Lorna Jane vests that I see all over instagram. Who doesn't want motivation on their chest in the gym?

3. I think this H&M bag would be the perfect size to fit all my gym essentials and has a nice neutral shade to go with all the bright workout outfit I have.

4. I have these leggings in two different prints and they are simply the best fit, no elastic needed but a nice snug fit so I can run in. I can also vouch that after quite a few washes they still pass the squat test which is crucial for leggings.

5. Another well used part of my workout wardrobe. I adore this bra-I generally use it for HIIT workouts where I need a lot of support and like how comfortable and well supported my chest is in this bra.

Spring running essentials

Spring running essentials

1. Good sunscreen- you need to protect your skin as exposing your skin during your run is going to damage your skin. I have been told that running gives you wrinkles, but doing any activity outdoors without the proper protection will give you wrinkles so as long as you wear a high factor sunscreen should protect you all year round.

2. I'm loving these bright running shoes, if these shoes could support my feet then I would have them as I think they are beautiful. I'm sure brightly coloured shoes make you run faster, right? Maybe I should buy them to do non running exercise?

3. I actually own these shorts, they were brought for me for a Christmas present. They are so comfortable and actually let my legs breathe which is crucial as the weather gets warmer. They are my go to shorts for long runs and I can't wait for the weather to be warm enough to wear them again

4. Is sunvisor one word or two? Who knows but I want one! As much as I'm adamant about my suncream routine (and yes that's through winter not just spring and summer) I want a visor to keep the sun off my face and to help me stay cool in the hotter weather. I can picture myself with the pony tail over the top and running in the sunshine keeping away the wrinkles.
