Your activewear says more about you than your workout playlist ever could.
Some girls want their gym look to be cute enough for a post-workout coffee, others need maximum support and zero distractions, while some are clearly dressing for the airport, not the treadmill.
From tennis-inspired sets to sleek monochrome separates, here’s what the activewear you choose reveals about your personality.
The Tennis Girl

The Serious Gym Girl

The Airport Athlete

The Pilates Princess

The Cool Girl
