Does anyone else wear sports clothes a lot

Hi, I seem to wear sports clothes a lot as I go to the gym daily at lunch so I wear lycra the majority of the time until I
a) go to work or
b) have a shower get changed and pick the kids up

I have an athletic figure (probably more gymnast) and find the 3/4 compression tights or shorts suit me best on lower half and lycra vest on the top half.

I am far more comfortable in these clothes and feel they suit me more- anyone else?

I found they smooth lumpy bits and are of course tight fitting showing off your figure, in that sense yes they can be flattering. I only wore while exercising and was always very happy to take them off and shower after! Currently pregnant and missing exercising like mad!

However, I don't think I would really like to wear them that much.

I wear fitness kit to school drop off on the 2 days I don't work. Yes, they smooth out lumps (including my already flat chest [sobs]), but I'm always slightly self-conscious of any camel toe (especially on one pair of capris), and VPL (no way am I going commando). I prefer my normal clothes on again, but I do think work out clothes can be very flattering - often on those who seem to be most self-conscious of their figures.
