Ad: How to Boss Your Workout Attire

Ad disclaimer: this post was sponsored by PrettyLittleThing. For our full privacy policy, please click here.

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to get fit, we applaud you. After all, there’s nothing like exercise to benefit your mental and physical health.

That said, it can be difficult to find the motivation, especially after a blissful festive period.

That’s where your activewear comes in.

If you’re looking cute then you’re most likely feeling cute, which will spur you on to achieve even the toughest workout goals! Right?

Read on to find out how to boss your workout attire this year and beyond!

How to Boss Your Workout Attire

Embrace the Classics

First things first, there’s nothing wrong with embracing classic shapes and colours if this is going to make you feel good while you’re lifting those weights.

Because you’re going to be breaking a bit of a sweat, it’s important to feel comfortable. Practical clothing is so important, especially if your workout is usually high intensity.

That’s why black, white and grey hues are old favourites of mine when it comes to workout attire.

Concerned that you’re going to look too bland? Try incorporating a distinctive design element into your outfit, like a racer back vest or leggings with a printed side stripe.

This way, you’re sure to feel confident. And when you project confidence, you stand out for all the right reasons.

Inject a Splash of Colour

Don’t want to stick with the traditional colour ways? That’s alright, you can always mix up your look with a pop of colour.

If a bold and garish hue that almost lights up in the dark isn’t really your vibe, opt for something more subtle instead. For instance, how about a cute pastel or an understated multi-coloured print?

Either way, wear colours that you love and that brighten up your mood for a fun, frivolous workout aesthetic.

Pick a Unique Key Piece

Another way to boss your workout attire is by picking a unique key piece and then building your outfit around it.

Personally, we adore a cool cropped jacket or a statement graphic tee.

Whether you choose to wear your key piece with other striking separates or tone down the rest of your look, it won’t be long before you’re turning heads in your gym or exercise class.

Say Yes to Co-Ords

Co-ords: what your Mum used to dress you in circa 1995.

Did they used to be a bit cringe? Yes. But don’t the 2018 versions look incredible? Absolutely, especially in the form of workout attire.

If you’re a co-ord newbie, don’t panic. Simply experiment with the trend by opting for an endearing crop top and leggings combo. You could even throw on a breathable top over your outfit until you feel brave enough to let your co-ord shine.

Alternatively, if you’re well-versed in the world of co-ords and want to rock yours with pride, why not try a funky sweatshirt with matching jogging bottoms or a sporty tracksuit?

In any case, your co-ord will attract attention (and hopefully take the focus away from your perspiring red face – right?).

Don’t Shy Away From a Fun Print

Finally, even though it’s tempting to be safe and choose flattering plain separates over their patterned counterparts, you just can’t beat workout attire that features a fun print.

After all, you’ve got to make working out as enjoyable as possible, right? And there’s no better way to do it than with unconventional clothing.

Unless you want to overwhelm your gym buddies, it’s best to stick to one printed piece rather than a head-to-toe ensemble. Think: a striped t-shirt or logo emblem leggings.

Regardless, be sure to team your print(s) with complimentary pieces for a look that’s sassy yet stylish.

Werk that Workout Attire, Girl

Let’s face it, there’s no right or wrong way to do workout attire.

Having said that, if you’re seriously committed to getting in shape in the new year, it’s all about looking great so that you can feel awesome.

(And ultimately love yourself like you deserve!)

What are your new year’s resolutions? How do you boss your workout attire?

Current bottomless brunch uniform: an oversized sh Current bottomless brunch uniform: an oversized shirt, high-waisted jeans and square-toed strappy heels. 💃🏼
This is basically the 2022 version of “jeans and a nice top” — comfortable and practical for a long day/evening out but still contemporary and stylish.
I went for a soft colour palette for Saturday’s brunch in York because I thought it would look fresher for the summer season. 👀 
I also usually add a light jacket to tackle the pesky British elements but I didn’t need one last weekend. 🥵
The gorgeous mint green satin shirt is from @zara and my straight-leg jeans are @topshop (old), adding some nineties nostalgia to the mix.
I’ll link all pieces in my Story. 💕

Seeing all these news headlines about airport queu Seeing all these news headlines about airport queues is so frustrating. 😖
A trip abroad starts at the airport, and it breaks my heart that people who haven’t been able to travel or go on holiday for years and have worked so hard to save up are now experiencing delays and cancellations when it’s finally time for their trip to begin.
Speaking from experience, these queues stress you out before you’ve even got to your final destination. ✈️
I’ve flown from Leeds Bradford airport three times in the last nine months and Manchester airport once in the last few weeks. Each trip to the airport has taught me something different.
That said, I wanted to share a few things you can do to speed up your time at the airport so that you can make your flight and have the much-needed holiday you deserve. 🤗
Above all, follow your specific airline or airport recommendations. (These usually come in the form of an email or text message a couple of days before your flight.)

Hope this helps. 💕

Courtyard strollin’… (Looking for my next cup Courtyard strollin’…
(Looking for my next cup of coffee or glass of sangria — it all depends on the time of day!) 😉☕️🍹
This cute courtyard was in the middle of Palma city. The architecture and restaurants huddled in the square with al fresco drinking and dining instantly transported me back to Italy.
It reminded me of past cruise ship holidays with my parents where we visited the likes of Naples, Capri, Rome, Florence and Pisa and we would be in awe of the charm and beauty of these places.
But this post is about Palma in Majorca. 🇪🇸
Palma itself is a delight!
There’s so much going on in the centre, so much life and hustle and bustle, which is refreshing to experience after over two years of lockdowns and travel restrictions. 😅
I enjoyed our leisurely peruse of the city, soaking up the sun and seeing historic sights such as The Cathedral of Santa Maria, which dates back to 1601.
We even spent some time getting lost amongst the cobbled backstreets, popping in and out of shops before we regained our bearings once again. 😍
Our day in Palma reminded me how much I love exploring and how much travelling makes me feel fulfilled.
You just can’t beat it, right? ❤️
I already can’t wait for my next European city break (which hasn’t even been booked yet!).
What are some of your fave European cities? 👇🏻

One of my all-time favourite travel fashion pieces is the blue denim “mom-style” shorts.
You know, the relaxed-fit and high-waisted type that go with just about anything? 😉
You can pair them with a strappy top and sandals or flip flops for those warm summer days.
Or you can take them from day to night by swapping the strappy top for a chic blouse or cropped shirt and the flat sandals or flip flops for heels.
They’re just so comfy and cute! J’adore. ❤️
These ones are from @marksandspencerfashionpr which I’ll link via the @shop.LTK app along with some similar options.

That post-holiday feeling! You know, when you lan That post-holiday feeling!
You know, when you land after a few days in the sun and you feel refreshed, recharged and ready to take on the world again. 🙌🏻
And it helps if you travel in comfy clothes.
Plane, train and bus rides can be time-consuming (and stressful when things go wrong) so comfy travel gear makes the journey that little bit more bearable. ✈️ 
I’m currently loving lounge sets to travel in, such as this “Bon Voyage” lemon number from @lornaluxe x @inthestyle . 🍋
You can still get your hands on the shorts but, unfortunately, the sweatshirt is out of stock.
Not to worry though - I’ve linked some more pretty lounge sets to travel in via my shop on the @shop.LTK app.

(But then you’re so excited that you end up not having the best sleep! 🤦🏼‍♀️)

I’m blue da ba dee da ba di. 🎶 Okay so I uni I’m blue da ba dee da ba di. 🎶
Okay so I unintentionally wore blue, white and black all weekend.
Outfit one was for a Betty’s brunch for the hubby’s birthday and exploring Thirsk. 👀
The blue denim dress and checked shacket combo felt a bit sixties inspired and sassy teamed with black tights and white boots.
Then outfit two was for a pub lunch and drinks with the family (hubby’s birthday celebrations part two).
I went for a blue floral top, comfy black jeggings, a blue denim shearling jacket and those white boots again. 👢
This felt more seventies rocker vibes so naturally I had to wear it with attitude!
