While previewing the Athleta spring 2014 collection, I it hit me that I could very easily LIVE day in and day out in the new season’s offerings, which is kudos to the brand for thoughtful design and careful attention to detailing, fabrication, and color. From supple, quilted vests to space-dyed slouchy sweaters, working out and carrying on with the rest of your life has never been so seamless. I actually feel like I want to work out more, since I have stylish and comfortable pieces to do so in, retiring my old tshirts and pants to lounging/sleeping/never-to-see-the-light-of-day only.
I’ve found it easy to shop as well, with the website indicating what the particular item is inspired for (i.e. gym training for the No Sweatin’ it Pant, and running for the Diffuse Tight by MPG).
See the slideshow above for some of my top picks for spring 2014, which also include incredible technology like the UNSTINKABLE tech, allowing you to wear items more and wash them less without smelling like you just worked out in them five times.
Plus, I’m excited to shop Athleta via the in-store experience; a new store recently opened in the flatiron district (at 18th Street and Park Avenue) in New York City, and check the list of locations for one near, or opening soon, near you!
