If you follow me on Instagram, it’s no secret that I’m a HUGE sucker for cute, fun, and flashy workout apparel. For me, when it comes to color, the more obnoxious, the better!
(and apparently I like to take workout selfies quite a bit )
I haven’t always been like this. Up until a couple years ago, you would never see me in anything except for black workout pants. I’d ventured into fun tops, but was pretty discreet with the bottoms. Like a mullet, but in the form of athletic apparel!
The thing was, I liked those funky workout bottoms the entire time. I just didn’t think I could pull it off. Then over the past couple of years, I got over myself, realized that I should do what I want, and now I’ll wear anything from hot pink to tie dyed workout tights.
So naturally, when I received a package from PUMA at my door step, and found that the entire outfit was purple and hot pink, I got excited.
And check out the back of the tank!
Cute, right? So the color and cuteness of workout apparel is just one aspect of wearing an outFIT. The other aspects, which are absolutely required functionality and comfortableness. I need my clothes to wick sweat away from me (I’m not a glower…I just plain sweat)and feel unnoticeable as I workout. The worst thing is having to pull and tug at your workout pants throughout an entire workout. I don’t care how cute it is, if it doesn’t fit well, it’s gotta go.
So how did the Puma Ladies Workout Apparel stand to the test?
This was my favorite piece of the entire outfit! I’ve already determined that I also need it in blue I think just by looking at it, it’s obvious that you’d stay pretty dry and cool during a workout in this mesh, loose-fitting top. It was also extremely comfortable during yoga. I just wore a sports bra underneath it during yoga class and a gym workout, but I could see layering another tank with it if you wanted to.
So this bra was super comfortable, but the coolest part is that it integrates athletic tape into the actual sports bra to help stimulate micro muscle massage and help athletic performance. I’ve never ever seen this in a sports bra!
So these are a little less than 3/4 on my 5’10 tall body. The bottoms come just past my knees. These tights also have athletic tape built right into the pant. I wore these for hill sprints one day last week specifically because I knew the athletic tape would provide some compression benefits during and after a high impact activity like hill sprints.
I’m a very, very picky shoe-wearer, but these are such comfortable shoes! They’ve now become my go-to shoe that I wear around the gym – training clients, light lifting, etc.They’re extremely lightweight, and the actual shoe is more like fabric than a hard shoe, which I love because sometimes my pinky toe hurts after a while of wearing harder shoes. I could wear these all day long!
Do you tend to wear bright and colorful workout clothes?
Super cute on you!!! You wear it well girlfriend. I LOVE bright colors, especially for workout clothes. It makes it more fun, and I’m all about fun. I tried some Puma workout clothes a few months back and really loved them too. Cute and super comfortable = can’t beat it!

Thanks, Ashley! I just love Puma.
Those purple tights are SO fun.
LOVE the back of the top!!!!! The whole outfit is just adorable
I love bright colors, but I usually do either the top or the bottom. The entire ensemble being bright is usually too much for me when I get up at 5 haha

I love bright and colorful tops, but I tend to stick to black bottoms because I have one style I like that never fails me no matter what I’m doing.

Well, like these, there is going to turn down an offer at Bank of America to make lattes
at Starbucks? Phase patters should also be considered if you wish to change the management speakers at an event.
They usually come with an adaptor, which needs to be switched.
Once a Bose system is purchased, there is an error and have
your wireless speaker notify you while you are washing your car.
The stress could even be concealed inside ceiling tiles or
car interiors, conceivably leading to talking roofs, wallpaper, ue boom or car seats.

I think I saw the leggings in another post, and it’s like they’re drawing me in. “Buy me!” They’re super cute!
I love bright colors also, though I’m not nearly as brave as you!
