Top Picks for This Season
Skims: The Ultimate Performance Wear
Bonded Waisted Leggings
Keep everything smooth with a flat waistband and side darted to contour your shape. Made from beautiful silky fabric, these leggings are a £116 limited edition. Skims’ collaboration with Nike is a must-have. They’re so hot! Kim Kardashian has been spotted wearing them all day, and they’re made from the most amazing fabric with the built-in underwear look.
Leggings in Coolest Colours
By Skims. Don’t forget to add a headscarf to hide that gym performance tousled hair look. Well done, Nike! What a 2025/6 affordable collection – the best yet!
Alo (Air Land Ocean): Burgundy Perfection
Alo has given us an amazing activewear collection in deep burgundy this winter. It’s so on trend! Look like the most flattering track pants worn by many, including Georgina Gio. She’s a massive fan from workout to boarding, and she’s at her most comfortable.
Steal her look and don’t forget to add your hair claw – the most fashionable accessories with the cutest logo!
Styling Your Active Look
The White Shirt Trick
I recommend wearing a crisp white shirt under the leather so the collar peaks out. The look can also be complemented with a belt over spandex two-piece tank leggings or stone washed jeans. My tip would be to get a mens’ more oversized shirt – not only is this on trend, but it’s way more flattering. Zara has some great men’s white shirts. Don’t forget to size up!
Accessorizing with Gold
How we rock spandex with your gym wear – add chunky gold accessories. Black or mirrored, pop them on with your gym wear. Add that statement leather and chunky gold accessories.
Key Pieces:
- Layered chain necklaces with heart pendants
- Initial letter charms
