Although related to fashion, working out is a subject on its own – especially once you fell off the wagon and are trying to discipline yourself to get right back to where you left off! Planning to work out again is always easiest when you start out with a purchase to get you motivated. Men will never understand this, but you have to reward yourself first before starting something new. 😉

Buying new clothes for the gym = more motivation to actually work out!

I unintentionally strolled by a Lululemon boutique the other day and was reminded that I wanted to get more serious about working out. I entered the store and immediately spotted a pair of Balenciaga look-alike workout pants. That flower pattern instantly called Balenciaga!!!! I also spotted a black and white print that immediately reminded me of Celine!

Unfortunately, I felt “too fat” to pull off the second look, but the Belenciaga-like flower pattern surrounded by black contour was slimming and therefore my first choice. The black and white Celine look-alike (shown here in green on their website) was pretty amazing too – maybe that’ll be an option for me after lowering my dessert intake by a notch.

Trying on a newly purchased item for the first time is probably one of the most exciting things for any girl who loves fashion. In this case, since I had to wear them somewhere, I took my newly purchased Balenciaga-like workout gear to the gym. There we go: theory proven! This is how you get back on track after a gross diet fail for several weeks.

These were seriously the best workout pants I could find! I should probably mention here that at $92 (special edition) these are rather pricey for a a gym pant, but are kind of amazing. If you wanted, you could even wear them with a cute T by Alexander Wang muscle tee in heather gray and a pair of white Isabel Marant Brian high tops for a coffee run.
