Lately, I’ve been trying out new fitness apparel and stepping away from one of my favorite old brands. Because honestly, the pants are way too expensive, they’re often see through and they are constantly pilling up and falling apart. I’m over it. I’m ready to find workout clothes that will last, keep everything where it’s suppose to be when I’m jumping all over the place in the gym and that make me feel my best. And I’ve finally found that exact thing!
I recently wandered into Victoria Secret to find some new underwear. Have you guys tried their no-show sport panties? They are seriously my favorite underwear of all time. I want to buy a million. Anywho, after grabbing some underwear, I started to notice their Sport section and their leggings because they had about a million different patterns to choose from. And when I felt them, I was even more pumped. So many different leggings out there tend to not be very thick and Victoria Secret Sport leggings are the perfect thickness.
I also noticed the bras right away. They have a bazillion bras for any chest size. I don’t truly know how big mine are, maybe a C or D, but I do know that I’m not a huge fan of the uni-boob that I take on every time I work out. So I tried on one of their underwire sports bras and instantly felt more comfortable. With their underwire and cups underneath the sports bra, your boobs stay separated and upright. So if you are constantly looking for a bra that will keep you from flying around, Victoria Secret Sport bras are the ones for you!
How fun is this pattern of leggings? And these long leggings are not only high waisted and super stretchy, but they also come in over 30 different patters. THIRTY! Does it look like I don’t have legs here? These stairs too fun to not take pics in front of. Even if they did make me lose my legs.

This tank is now one of my favorite tank tops to workout in or spend the day in. It’s stretchy, doesn’t cling and it comes in 5 different colors including pink and teal!

During the winter, I’m always looking for ways to layer up since our gym doesn’t have heat. Most workouts are spent in long sleeves at this point. This top below is perfect for throwing on after a workout to keep warm or if you’re looking for something to stay warm in during a tough workout, this half zip jacket would be cozy and comfy!
I snagged these pants a couple weeks but looks like they are already sold out, but I linked a similar pair in just a little lighter pink. These leggings are thick and warm, and they don’t budge around your waist. No more pulling leggings up or constantly tugging at them. They stay right where you put them. You’re seriously going to love these!

Cute leggings! I’ve been eyeing the Lululemon speed shorts for running.
Love the fashion posts! And as I mentioned before, you should totally launch your own line of apparel! I am here if you need help with that:)
I’m a fitness instructor and busy mom and appreciate any brand that is cute and functional–I hate to show up to my kids’ school looking like a slob. I’m a huge fan of Lucy. They are often on Zulilly and it’s normally current stuff that is sold in stores. Thanks for the cute ideas!
My absolute favorite workout leggings that are ridiculously affordable are actually from Old Navy! The Go Dry fit are the freaking best, are not see through, and are priced just right. I have a couple of pairs that never fray, and have lasted a ridiculously long time despite tons of use. It’s worth checking out!
I LOOOOOVE Victoria’s Secret workout pants. I’ve felt they’ve been so underrated and whenever someone asks me where I got my workout pants, they are always so surprised when I tell them. I hope their quality continues because I have had a couple of pairs from them for years now and they’re still in great condition. I have yet to try their sports bras, so I will have to check them out. Thanks for sharing, Juli!
Hi Juli- I noticed you mentioned the “see-through”ness of workout pants and that’s my biggest concern! How are VS pants on transparency? There have been too many times I’ve been in yoga class and I can see through my fellow yogi’s pants, and I get nervous for myself. I hate thongs so I’m usually trading off between underwear lines and possible exposure (I ask my fiancé to check out my vulnerabilities after I buy a new pair of pants, and he doesn’t mind 😉
none of mine are see through whatsoever!! another reason why I love them! the only ones I’ve had that have gone see through are lululemon.
Hey Juli, Happy New Year hun! I haven’t been on your site in forever but whenever I need to get back on track with Paleo guess where I go 😉 Did you lose weight or something? Not knocking you or anything but girl you look fab! *Sigh* Lady with a body to die for ^^^ (As always :-)) Thanks for the VS sports gear review. I’m with you on tired of paying thousands for gear just to have my arse shining through the material. Worse how none of mine can fit now because of all this weight I’ve gained 🙁 But that’s ok, I’m back on it. Anyhow, it was a pleasure stopping by as usual. Take care girl.
hey sass! i actually talked about my weight loss in a forum post recently, you can find it here: https://paleomg.com/top-ways-to-lose-weight-maintain-balance-w-michaela-north/
I’m too a CrossFitter and looking for leggings and sports bras all the time. I literally just bought the VS special before I read your blog and so happy you love your purchases – can’t wait for mine now! For the sports bra, how do you like the clip in the back? I’m scared it’ll bother me during a WOD. Thanks 🙂
i didn’t notice the clip at all, so it doesn’t bother me!
Just in case you didn’t know, VS is having an awesome sale today (1/7): buy a sports bra at regular price, get a pair of sports pants free!!! I am officially addicted to their sports wear, thanks to your posts 🙂 Shine on, Juli!
just posted about that on my ig today!! such an awesome sale!
I bought those exact leggings from VS on their “buy a sports bra, get a free workout pant” sale! I love them.
Also, please tell me what you do to get those abs! I have a very intense workout routine and cannot seem to get any definition there!
haha all i do is workout hard (for the past 6 years) and eat clean while still enjoying life. i think that stuff also has to do with genetics
