Happy Thursday!
We are so excited to share a post today that’s all about our love of the athleisure trend and our favorite tips for reaching your 2017 fitness goals! Whitney and I try to stay very active and always love finding the best workout clothes that are comfortable, durable and cute! Today’s post will share items that meet all these needs and more. We know you will love these pieces from the kate spade new york x Beyond Yoga collection as much as we do! Make sure to stay tuned to the end of our post for sizing information!
As you may not know, Whitney and I started in ballet training at age 4. We so enjoyed dancing into our college years and our classical ballet training will always be something we are grateful for. On the school sport side, cross-country and track kept us busy starting in 8th grade. Running didn’t come naturally to us but we so enjoyed the team aspect of it and after lots of training in high school we actually received scholarships to run in college!
While we don’t get to attend ballet classes now or run as much as we’d like, staying active with Orange Theory fitness classes and yoga is a must. We always like wearing leggings that don’t ride up or stretch out and comfortable tops with built in support are a must!
Today’s active looks are from the amazing collaboration of kate spade new york and Beyond Yoga! If you are new to this collection, these two fabulous brands teamed up to create an active wear line that’s perfect for yoga, Pilates, cycling, running – or even just some cardio filled weekend shopping! Whether you are on the hunt for new black tights {these ankle bow detail ones are for you} or need a jacket that can go from hot yoga class to Saturday morning brunch – there’s something in the latest kate spade new york x Beyond Yoga collection that you will love!
Sizing information is always crucial when ordering active wear online so we wanted to provide details that will help during the decision making process.
1. Bow Neck Jacket – This jacket is by far one of our favorite pieces from the collection. It’s available in black and zinfandel {both of which we are wearing here} as well as white. We own the striped version too and it’s so chic as well! The bow feature is a kate spade new york signature and we love it! The jacket runs a tad small so we suggest sizing up. It’s sooooo comfy and the perfect layering piece.
2. Cinched Bow Tank – When it comes to sleeveless tops for yoga, running, cycling etc. there’s a few details that are a must: comfortable fit, good length and built in support. This adorable bow detail top has it all! If you are between sizes we suggest selecting the next size up. The built in shelf bra is very comfortable and still allows for you to wear a sports bra if you need additional support for a higher impact activity.
3. Cinched Side Bow High Waisted Capri Legging – We love these leggings SO much! It’s hard to pick a fave feature but between the high waist and adorable bow detailing – these leggings must be added to your workout clothing collection! They even come in the prettiest pink shade too. We found the fit to be true to size.
4. Floral Cinched Bow Capri Leggings – These oh so sweet printed pants get our seal of approval as well. From the excellent fit and breathable fabric, these feminine leggings are the perfect way to add some color to your workout #ootd. We found these to run true to size just like the high waisted version.
5. Ridge Street Lance Yoga Bag – After more than a decade of practicing yoga, it’s about time we had the perfect kate spade new york bag to carry our mats in style! We can’t get over how roomy this bag is and it allows for all your essentials, a change of clothes plus is super lightweight. The exterior yoga mat compartment can be zipped shut when you aren’t carrying a mat around making it super versatile. It even has interior compartments perfect for your water bottle.
6. Ridge Street Siggy Backpack – This mid sized bag is perfect for the girl on the go. It’s lightweight and features the same durable black fabric as the yoga bag. We love the padded straps and of course how the gold kate spade new york logo pops on the front of the bag. From weekday to weekend activities, it’s no surprise this bag has so many five star reviews!
There’s so many other chic activewear pieces in the collection that you must check out here. We especially love this flounce jacket and these printed leggings!
Now that we have the perfect workout gear covered, Whitney and I wanted to share our three tips for staying active in the new year.
1. Find a friend that can keep you accountable: Workouts are always easier when you have a BFF by your side!
2. Find a workout studio that allows you to try classes at your convenience: The last 6 months we’ve worked out a local studio that offers nearly 75 class times a week! This allows us so much flexibility in selecting classes and no excuse to skip out on exercising.
3. Set small goals: Whether it is to gain upper body strength or lose a few of those holiday pounds, Whitney and I find that creating small yet achievable goals is the best way to stay motivated.

Y’all are so cute! I love this Kate Spade x Beyond Yoga collection. I am a big fan of Orange Theory, as well. It is always challenging me and I can’t believe how many calories I burn… 😀
Alright, it’s official, I have never seen such adorable activewear. Leave it to kate spade to create such a lovely line! I’m not sure I would ever want to sweat on these pieces though haha! Even the bags are cute, so I’m sure the other pieces in the collection are just as fabulous. Thanks so much for sharing such a detailed review, and for the tips for staying active. I definitely agree with all of them!
