The benefits of exercise have been proven time and time again, and now it’s just down to us to pull our weight (literally).

Alo Yoga

If you follow any global yogis on Insta, it’s likely you’ve seen them decked in Alo Yoga gear. This brand is all about encouraging mindful movement, wellness and organic community – goals we are in full support of. Alo creates yoga clothing “explicitly to inspire yogis (and yogis-to-be) to have more yoga in their life”, with a studio-to-street vibe we can’t resist. We love the classic Real Bra Tank ($559, available in a range of gorgeous colours!) and the sculpting High-Waist Moto Legging ($884). Though it’s on the pricey side, you can pay for items through interest-free instalments – it’s an investment, after all! As a bonus, all items are wear-tested by the in-house team, so comfort and quality are guaranteed.

Cotton On

If you’re on a budget, Cotton On is a great affordable spot for staple items and basic gear. The low prices don’t (necessarily) mean poor quality either! From sports bras to jackets, yoga mats and gym bags, Cotton On has you covered. We love the brand’s tank tops and sporty singlets, which are comfy enough to wear for chilling around the house too. It’s also worth taking a look at the cute accessories on offer, like the stylish Metal Drink Water Bottles and these Active Wireless Earphones – just what you need when squeezing in that lunchtime workout!

Sassy Tip: If you’re concerned about quality, check the inside label for the material and opt for items that use natural, breathable and lightweight fibres (like cotton!) over synthetics with unnecessary padding and elastic.
