Lemons and Leggings

As a regular gym goer, I have been buying lycra for years. Trends have come and gone with the length of the legging, cut of the vest or brightness of the print. At the end of the day, with sports gear, it's all about individual preference and what works for you. I used to buy Lululemon clothing when I visited New York as the quality is outstanding. Which is why I was so excited about Lululemon's new concept store on Regents Street.  It is huge, and beautiful and stocks everything you could possibly need (or not need but want anyway!). It's the largest Lululemon in Europe so if you can't find what you need here, it's not worth having. The store is calming, cool and well laid out. There's even a cafe upstairs and an area for their free classes.

The trend this season is muted tones, no fluros here i'm afraid!
Think earthy and zen. 

My favourite leggings, the subtle embossed pattern detailing is gorgeous

 This lovely set is from a collaboration with Central St Martins. Lululemon challenged the students to create prints inspired by nature's perfect imperfections. They printed their creations onto their iconic styles, creating a limited-edition collection. It's certainly unique and I would definitely stand out in the gym in these fresh, modern prints.

A stylish gillet is a must have for any keen exerciser. Ideal for layering if you're working out outside or just to throw on for your car journey to the gym.

Even their mats looking incredible, I need one in every colour and pattern, with this special storage built especially for them.

Everyone needs their own mat, you never want to put your face where someone elses bottom has been...

As with all their stores, the staff know their stock and whether you need clothing for running the marathon, taking a yoga class or just doing the school run they will give you advice on the best choices for you. 

Just go, take a look around and grab a juice from the cafe, you never know you may be inspired to take a class but either way you will come out feeling fitter than when you went in.
