Tops
I love this top! Super supportive and comfy. Plus, the pads are thick and don't roll into boob hot dogs after the first wear.
Old Navy StudioSmooth Seamed Longline Top
Hands down, the best basic top. No removable cups, no riding up, and no gapping at the top for smaller-chested ladies like myself!
Halara Basic Padded Workout Top
How fun is this elegant top? I love the amount of coverage you get while still looking fabulous. Perfect for a winter zumba or barre class!
Halara SoftlyZero™ Crossover Yoga Sports Top
This is a staple in my dance and zumba wardrobe. Completely adjustable and stays put!
Halara Off Shoulder Short Sleeve Oversize Sports Top
Bottoms
Talk about coverage! I love these shorts and have them in gray. I exclusively use them for lifting as they don't ride up one bit. Plus, they're always on sale!
Halara SoftlyZero™ Plush High Waisted Crossover Ruched Yoga Shorts
Would you believe that one of my most reliable gym staples came from Walmart? These babies are thick and luxurious. I've had my pair for ages without any rips or thinning areas.

This is a fantastic dupe for the classic Adidas triple stripe. The perfect fit for you if you prefer a lighter cotton to the more popular lycra/spandex options dominating the market.

Try these spectacular shorts on for size. I love my comfy pair for running and cycling! The switch hem ensures the waist stays right where it's meant to be.

Accessories
Ever since the day I grabbed these off the shelf on a whim, I've never suffered a heel blister. These socks were such a pleasant surprise! It feels like walking on a cloud.
Loritta Womens Athletic Socks
I despise the look and feel of sweatbands. A true sensory nightmare! These sleek athletic headbands were such a worthwhile switch.
Kitsch Active Headbands
The perfect size to fit on the back of a kayak or to take on a hike. I kept mine as a permanent gym locker bag!
