With Spring around the corner, here are some ideas on how to freshen up your look!

4. Wear a side-braid on a casual day or over the weekend.

5. Look chic while you work-out and wear a pair of fab patterned exercise pants.

Work Out in Style: Chic Fitness Wear

Getting exercise at least three times per week is important for leading a healthy lifestyle. Whether it's a 15-minute walk, killer hike, or a spin class at my beloved Soul Cycle, I like to try to get a work out in daily. It feels good to sweat in style so I like to wear stand-by favorites like Lululemon and Nike. On a recent shopping trip in Santa Monica, I discovered another fabulous brand of chic workout wear by Aussie designer Lorna Jane and included her line in my favorite workout looks below!

 

Top by Lorna Jane $69.99. Pants by Lululemon for Soul Cycle- sold out but you can find other pants on their site here.

Straps in back can be worn two different ways.

Carmen Excel Lorna Jane Tank $69.99 , Lululemon pants $92 and Nike sneakers. Also wearing a spibelt, the chic alternative to a fanny pack. It holds an iphone, money and keys. 

Nike running shoes. I changed the laces to add a pop of color.
