Flattering workout clothes...?

[Diorissimo1985]

... is there such a thing?
I noted the Christmas princessing thread and want to be less of a frumpy fat blob by Christmas. I plan to go to fitness classes twice a week and generally do more walking with DD in the buggy... but there are mirrors EVERYWHERE at the gym and I can’t stand catching sight of myself dressed in saggy New Look leggings and an oversized T-shirt. It’s too demoralising
Can anyone recommend a shop for some flattering work out clothes? I love the look of Sweaty Betty but budget can’t quite stretch to that sadly.

Sweaty Betty have good sales and offers if you sign up to their distribution list. Decathlon are good too but since trying Sweaty Betty I am a convert.

DD has some nice workout gear from H and M

I love love love Bam clothing, better for the planet than polyester too.
May have a large basket waiting to be checked out too.

H&M or Sweaty Betty. The latter is pricey, yes, but you never have to pay full price and there are always bargains on eBay. It's worth paying a bit more.

Lulu lemon - normal price in line with sweaty Betty but lasts much longer and now with an outlet at Biscester village if you are near there?

.....and I've sometimes struck gold in TKMaxx

Alo yoga, I find LuLu Lemon quality pretty poor.

Thanks I will check these out! Not any of these shops so will look online and eBay is a good idea

*not near any

I'm afraid I succumbed to my Bam basket and I have a code to share with anyone that wants 15% off.

My USA Pro leggings from Sports Direct have lasted much better than my Sweaty Betty ones. I've had some nice tops from there too.

Bamboo clothing, Asquith (in the sale)

Sweaty Betty, but don't pay full price they always have offers on.

I bought my work our outfits from Matalan, h&m and Asda George do good sports bras(£10). Good Luck

I swear by Sweaty Betty

Hmmm I've been looking at Bam gear - I love love love their socks. I'm very sweaty though - does their stuff wick moisture away drspouse ?

Decathlon is very good value, I love their leggings to go running in as you can fit a phone in the side pocket

Myprotein.com does great gym wear and normally have good discounts across the whole site

I have a couple of pairs of gapfit sculpt leggings. Super flattering and v comfy

I have some nice workout leggings and tshirt from Mountain Warehouse and some yoga leggings from Thought. I wear the latter with a long tank top from M&S and I actually prefer how I look in that outfit than in normal clothes 😂. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

Tikiboo are really flattering and they quite often do discount codes!

I find it does lonely.

BAM stuff is great for running/gym and does wick away moisture but, weirdly, takes ages to dry once it's been washed IME.
I wear a lot of Ronhill leggings, shorts and lightweight hoodies, both for running in and also running around after the kids. It's excellent quality and you can often get good deals in the sale.

But you can't beat Decathlon, every time, for cheap yet flattering kit. Their capris, vests and yoga pants are as good as the high end sports stuff. Far FAR better than H&M and other high street "fashion" shops, because Decathlon gear is properly designed to exercise in!
