The Christmas tree has officially been decommissioned, and you've finally finished the Quality Street. Both are sure signs that it's probably time to ease yourself back into exercise, but what with news of a third national lockdown and the grim grey skies, your motivation levels might be hovering around lacklustre. Perhaps what might inspire you to restart those brisk park walks, or get back into yoga videos on YouTube is the heartening news that there is so much great activewear on the high street right now, with several shops launching brand new collections as of this morning.
Hush's, which has been designed to fit brilliantly however you like to move, contains joyful prints and jazzy colours, both of which will cheer you up however bleary-eyed you feel. Tu's has a ribbed yoga co-ord that will make a great replacement for your baggy tee and stained joggers combo.
& Other Stories's new sustainable yoga collection has been designed in collaboration with Mel Douglas's The Black Women's Yoga Collective, a group dedicated to increasing access to, and representation in wellness for underserved communities, especially Black women. 'I started BWYC after feeling like I couldn’t find a community that looked like me as I began developing my yoga practice,' says Douglas. The collection is made from materials like recycled polyamide and Tencel™ Modal, and features soothing-on-the-eyes shades of pastel pink, khaki, biscuit and charcoal that will make for an even more peaceful practice. The best news? You can get to know the collective right now by taking part in a free 30-minute class, a restorative vinyasa flow, from your living room.
COS's sustainable collection also uses recycled nylon and concentrates on performance, with seamless sports bras and leggings that will make for even smoother workouts. All you need to do now is pick your playlist.
