What top do I need for yoga?

[Swearwolf]

I've recently started going to a weekly yoga class and my usual running stuff isn't cutting it - I prefer slightly looser tops as tight ones ride up when I'm running, but every time I go into a downward dog my top flaps over my face!

I'm happy with my leggings, just need help finding suitable tops that won't constrict me but won't flap about. I'm 5'2 and a chubby size 10, not super comfortable going in just a sports bra type top or something super cropped. Don't mind a bit short but would like it to reach my (high-waisted) leggings.

Help me!

I wear vest tops but tuck them into my leggings

I use a standard run if the mill tank top… prefer the ribbed ones as they seem more flattering. Most of mine are from H&M I think. I also have a couple of high necked tops with a similar fit.

A few of the women in my class wear just a sports bra… but the ones designed to look ok as a top as well (gymshark ones.. look like a crop top but with support rather than looking like a sports bra)

I just wear a t shirt and tuck it in

I wear a very long, slightly clingy bamboo t shirt from BAM.

As above I just wear any top and quickly tuck in before doing anything upside down and untuck for the rest of the class.

I realise this is fairly old, but just in case;

I would recommend tucking in a t-shirt or wearing a tight fitting vest top.

but mainly- layers! As it can get quite warm, but depending on the type of yoga sometimes you’re in a position for a longer period of time (Yin Yoga) you would maybe want a long sleeved top. And also for the relaxation part at the end.

Also I like a higher neck line so my cleavage isn't on display in downward dog

I wear a vest top tucked into my leggings and then a looser top over it.
