Whether you’re new to yoga or an old pro, nothing makes you want to get up and get your Om on like a cute yoga outfit!
There are some seriously stellar yoga duds out there these days: functional, comfortable, and adorable. How awesome is it to not lug around your workout clothes, because they’re cute enough to wear out and about for the rest of your day? And no more excuses for skipping out on yoga class; when you’re wearing your clothes, you can’t forget to bring em along.
If you’re as dedicated to comfort as I am, you’ll be thrilled to have some pieces you can throw on still be cute. Because, let’s be honest, the paint on my favorite sweatpants has never kept me from wearing them in public regardless of how awful they look. And for a yoga class? Well, they just don’t work.
My favorite yoga goods are below, but I’m always on the lookout for fabulous new fitness finds. If you’ve got some I don’t, let me know!
Lululemon: If you’ve been anywhere near a yoga studio recently, you’ve seen a Lululemon logo. This brand has the definition of a cult following. People are obsessed with it, and for good reason. They have a bazillion styles of bras, tops, pants, shorts, anything you need, and all in pretty colors and flattering cuts. I love love love this polka dot number. No shlumpy workout clothes here! They use top quality fabrics that wick away moisture, strategically placed mesh to keep you cool, and you can totally wear them around all day without looking like you’re on your way to work out! As a bonus, they’ll hem any pants for free, so everything will fit you like a dream.
Gaiam is another great line for you yogis. Not only are the clothes super flattering and colorful, but they focus on organic materials and low eco-impact dyes in all of their products, so you can feel good about your purchases. I love these leggings, because not only are they great for yoga, you can toss a tunic-y top over ‘em in the springtime and you are good to go!
Nuala, co-founded by supermodel Christy Turlington with some help from Puma, has a selection of yoga clothes that are great for the crossover of yoga/daily life. Great pieces that fit that fitness-to-running errands bill, like this sweet, strappy printed sport top, are available at Vickerey.com, and of course, at some Puma Stores. Do it up!
If you’re an avid online shopper, fitcouture.com has a huge selection of yoga clothes. Well, they have clothes for pretty much anything sweaty, but we’re talking about yoga here! I love these pants with the colorful detail up top, and this top? Totally bright and cute; I would def wear it in a non-yoga related setting.

Lululemon is has a cult following up here in Canada. But please girls don’t wear your lulus with heels. They might make your ass look fab, but they are still sweats!

When paying $120 CAD for a pair of stretch pants, LuLu’s better be hemming them for free. It’s too bad that nobody has come out with a comparable product that isn’t so ridiculously overpriced; until then, our wallets shall continue to suffer to have a great looking ass in spandex.

I’m pretty sure all those ancient wise indian men who invented yoga as a way to cleanse the mind and create at mind/body/spirit connection definitely were concerned about the cuteness of their yoga clothes.
seriously guys, this article is a joke.
if you’re doing yoga for the clothes or even because you think you’re but looks cute when you’re doing down dog- get a life. or actually, read a book or two.

When you shop for yoga clothes, remember that it doesn’t matter how durable, comfortable, or great-looking they are, if they’re not all three, you’ll notice. At SFORZA, We use only the most breathable, durable materials and employ interlock weaving technology for a smooth, tailored look. So in the gym, in your home or in a posture you’ve never done before, the last thing on your mind will be your clothes.
Please visit us and check out our 2009 Collection at http://www.sforzasport.com.
Namaste.

Seriously? This article is a joke. Who the hell needs $100 yoga pants when you can get the same thing for 1/4 of the price from other places. And this is why Americans are seemingly broke. Unless you have the disposable income (i.e., at least 40% of your income after taxes and cost of living), don’t buy it on things you can’t afford. There is absolutely no need to spend money on things you can get for MUCH cheaper.
