People wear such a variety of things to the gym!
I have a difficult time finding inexpensive activewear that's cute ( I mean, it's for the gym! I'm going to sweat in it and wash it a bazillion times, it won't last forever.) I used to be not so comfy with myself, so I was all about big t-shirts and gym shorts. Lately I like to wear old t-shirts lying around-- but also tank tops and colored ( never white) wifebeaters paired with sportbras. The shirts that look like sports bra tank tops are also super comfortable. ( Target actually carries some really adorable ones that are like, $10.) For shorts, I have a ton left over that I bought during my days as a day camp counselor ( mostly from AE and express) but my new favorite are the ones made by Victorias Secret PINK. I have purple, light blue, and dark blue ones! I also like to wear tight leggings-type pants, I also have a pair of PINK ones ( just picked them up today.) :-P
ANYWAYS, I think my gym wear is pretty appropriate, sometimes my shorts are on the shorter side- but that has a lot more to do with comfort than anything ( Ever tried spinning in long shorts?!). Some girls, I've seen I'm just like..."omg. WHAT?" There's this one girl at my gym, who wears a sports bra and ROLLED booty shorts. She's got a decent body- but it's obvious she does it for attention ( and it works, all the dumb frat guys are always all over her, lol.)
Then on the opposite end of the spectrum we've got those people who work out in khakis-- and I can't tell you the amount of dudes wearing swimming shorts- wtf.
:-P So, how do you ladies adorn yourself for some time at the gym, and do you have any fitnesswear reccomendations? I used to never care how I looked when I worked out, and now that I take the time to put together a kind of cute little coordinating outfit, I've felt a million times better. Florida has worked wonders for my superficiality. lol.
