Maintaining the motivation to work out can be tough, and feeling self-conscious or just plain frumpy while you do it can only make it worse.
Which is why the easy styling of a matching set can be a total godsend when it comes to getting ready for the gym.
Now let’s not pretend that we only wear workout gear for working out. Throw on a chic set, a coat, your favourite sneakers and a cross-body bag and you have an effortlessly glamourous ‘I just finished a Pilates class‘ look for a coffee date or running errands, that’s as comfy as it is fashion-forward.
There are so many ways to style a matching set no matter the occasion. Whether it be bike shorts and a crop top for hot summer strolls, tracksuit pants and a jumper for a cover-up on the way to the gym or leggings and long sleeves.
We consider ourselves activewear aficionados here at Now To Love so we have pulled together our favourite sets for your consideration for your next workout. With styles to suit every taste or favourite way to exercise, we promise these sets will make you want to go to the gym.
