Stylish (and fashionable?!) sportswear?

Hello lovely S&B posters. I know might horrify some of you (be kind, please), but I’ve realised that sports and athleisure wear really suits my current lifestyle and I desperately need to update what I have.

I need some new sports tops - performance wear but, also, some nice long, flattering sweatshirts/tops/cover ups to wear over leggings for the school run. I definitely like to nod to fashion, so please tell me what the cool people are wearing? I’m going to get some new sports socks to wear over leggings, IYSWIM!

Would love some links to brands and pics for inspiration, please. Thanks so much in advance. 😊

Happy to provide more info if it helps!

Have a look at varley, lulu lemon, sweaty Betty and adanola. Although the teens are wearing a lot of adanola now if that bothers you.

For nice sweatshirt cover ups I like anine bing or Isabelle marant.

I used to love Asquith, but I don't think they are trading anymore.

Varley, Sweaty Betty, Lulu or Stella for Adidas x

I'm not saying it is fashionable but I actually prefer my M&S stuff to my lulu stuff.
Avoid the Liberty active wear I got some last year and while the patterns are great the fabric and cut is horrible.

Lululemon, Athleta, NoBull, Gym+Coffee, Sweaty Betty.

I love the Lululemon Scuba hoodies and funnel necks. They come in full length but the nicest one is the oversized shorter version which sits right on the waistband. It comes in either half or full zip, I have both but prefer the half:Scuba
