How are those New Year’s resolutions coming along? Sometimes a few new purchases are a great way to get some motivation. I’m enjoying my new DeskCycle. Working out + TV = no excuses! This is a great time to do some activewear shopping, with all kinds of stock-clearing discounts.
A few new pieces of cute and comfortable workout clothes can make all the difference in hitting or skipping the gym. Even better, these great tops are attractive enough to wear outside of the gym too. Check out these best plus size workout clothes for the year! Pair all of them with tights or curve-flattering yoga pants.
1. Women’s Plus Active by Old Navy Compression Tanks
It’s essential that work out tanks match sports bra straps. This one fits the bill with racerback styling and a built-in shelf bra. If you’re like me and wear 2 sports bras, this is a bonus. Even better, the empire waist with flared-mesh camouflages the stomach. One reviewer loves this shirt so much that she has 8 of them!
Work out wear can be so cute these days (see number 3!). This technical top has a flattering cut that flares from the bust down to barely skim the body. A tie at the side adds a cute detail and pop of color. This is a great shirt for hitting the gym or to stay cute and cool in hot weather.
This adorable top is long enough to wear with tights but the faux crop creates a slimming silhouette. With a scoop neckline and long raglan sleeves, this is perfect for yoga classes, cool weather, and staying comfy on weekends.
4. Women’s Plus Size Solid Performance Sport Jacket
This is a great jacket for walking in cool weather, wearing to the gym, or feeling comfortable running errands. A little bit of Spandex is woven into a wicking fabric that gives 4-way stretch and keeps you cool and dry. Even better, it doesn’t pill. In addition to the flattering collar, there is a drawstring hood.
With that attention to detail Land’s End is known for, there is are on-seam zipper pockets, an inner pocket with MP3 port, and thumb holes in the cuffs that keep sleeves in place. Get in color-blocked dark pink with navy, teal and gray, or all black.
