love & rackets

Being healthy is no longer focused on how much you sweat at the gym; our fitness routines can incorporate anything from yoga to a morning coffee meditation to brunch with good friends.

Enter the athleisure trend: acing the runway for several seasons now and empowering our closets to say yes to flair, but no to fuss. These easygoing garments are made to mix the posh with the sporty using lightweight, breathable fabrics and lines that keep in step with ready-to-wear trends.

And, just like RTW, activewear no longer has to scream bright colors. You can effortlessly find neutrals that complement the rest of your wardrobe, even in the footwear aisle.

Bonus point – you finally get to wear your favorite kicks somewhere outside of running errands.
