Did you guys know Carrie Underwood is launching a fitness clothing line!?
Her new line of fitness apparel, CALIA, is debuting today and will be available at DICK’S Sporting Goods stores nationwide. As someone who basically lives in gym clothes and as a big-time Carrie Underwood fan, I jumped at the chance to try out a few items from CALIA and have nothing but good things to say about the quality, style and functionality the clothing.
I was challenged to take some items from Calia and transform them from “studio to street.” I had so much fun playing around in my closet!
From Barre to Errands Around Town…
The first look I came up with features a Barre to Errands Around Town look!
For the barre workout, I paired a CALIA by Carrie Underwood Seamless Tank with a strappy black sports bra, black leggings and sneakers (for walking to and from the studio). This look easily transitions into a street look by adding boots, a colorful clutch, casual jacket and a beanie! I figured this would be a look I could wear after a barre workout to run around town since a lightweight tank and leggings are both items I frequently wear to my Pure Barre classes. A pair of boots, a denim jacket and a beanie are simple items you can easily throw on post-workout, so this look is a breeze!
The beanie is key for hiding “ponytail hair.” Haha!
A quick note about this tank: The tank has ruching along the sides that allow you to choose how long you want it to be – you can bunch it up or pull it down over your hips for additional coverage, which is how I chose to wear the tank since I have a such a long torso (and a growing baby bump)! I also love how it comes up a little higher on the neckline, which I appreciate from a modesty standpoint since I teach a lot of Spinning classes where I feel like I am bending over the handlebars of a bike!
From the Gym to Brunch…
The second look features the same comfy ruched CALIA Essential Tank but incorporates my absolute favorite item I had the chance to try from the new line: The Effortless Dip Dye Cocoon Sweater.
The gym look shown above is super comfy and features the CALIA Seamless Tank, CALIA Effortless Dip Dye Cocoon Sweater, CALIA Effortless French Terry Capri and sneakers.
It easily transitions into a brunch look by swapping out the sweatpants and sneakers for a pair of skinny jeans and flip flops!
But back to that sweater… The CALIA Effortless Dip Dye Cocoon Sweater is super long in the back (great if you’re wearing leggings!) and the material is incredibly soft and breathable. It’s the perfect springtime studio cover up that also translates well to out-of-the-gym looks, like this one I put together for a weekend brunch with girlfriends.
I paired the tank and cardigan with with skinny jeans, flip flops, an oversize clutch and a gold necklace and threw my hair in a loose braid for a quick and simple gym-to-lunch look.
I had a blast putting these outfits together and hope you enjoyed a little sneak peek into the new CALIA by Carrie Underwood fitness apparel line!

I absolutely LOVE the effortless dip dye cocoon sweater!
I would love a new pair of colorful leggings and a new tank top!
I love the sweater! And who doesn’t need another pair of leggings?? 🙂
Love those outfits! I’ve been really excited about CALIA, and have had my eye on some cute leggings & a sweater (or a tank, or all of the above). I love the look of her line, especially some of the fun colors!
This line is so great! I’d love to try out the strappy sports bras and some new leggings!!! 🙂
I absolutely looove the Cocoon Sweater and the tank you’re wearing! I’ve been wanting to try CALIA and this would be perfect!
That sweater looks wonderful! I’ve been wanting a comfy but lightweight sweater, so would choose that and a new workout tank. Also congrats on your pregnancy!!!! Too exciting 🙂
I LOVE that sweater! And I would also get some new sports bras. Never can have too many!
I’d definitely get a new workout tank… Just hoping sting gets here soon so I can wear it outside! And also.. Can never have too many crops!!
I love the dip dye cocoon sweater and patterned shorts!
Oh my! I would choose some leggings and the dip dye sweater, so cute! BTW, your Jean jacket is so cute!
I’d definitely purchase the tank. I have a long torso and love extra neckline coverage too. And that sweater. Be still my heart…… love it!
Love the cocoon sweater. I can use more of those for nursing and a new pair of leggings to motivate me to keep up walking with baby every day!
I really need new leggings!
I could always use a new pair of workout leggings!
I love her new line. I saw a sneak peak at Dicks a few weeks ago.
I would purchase some new shorts, sports bras and tanks for crossfit. I recently lost 15 lbs and NOTHING fits!
I love the errands after barre outfit! Could definitely use some new tanks and leggings. ☺
I would love a new tank!
I would definitely buy a new tank top (I love that they’re long, I hate short tanks) and a new pair of leggings! A girl can’t have too many pairs of leggings!
Most definitely leggings and a comfy sweater type top.
I love the look of the sports bras and capris in the collection. Great giveaway! Thanks!
I’m a new reader here 🙂 I have been loving your blog and have gone back in time to catch up! I like your cute outfit ideas and how they all look so comfortable but chic! I pretty much wear my workout clothes until they fall apart. I could definitely use some new workout tanks and leggings.
I would definitely love to try the rouched tank you featured (for my growing baby bump as well!) and the cocoon sweater – looks so comfy!
I love that sweater!! I would choose a pair of leggings too.
If I won the gift card I would use it to buy new work out tanks!!! I looked at her line of stuff, and her tops are so cute! 🙂
I’ve been wearing the same 3 pairs of workout capris for the last couple years. Just the other day, I noticed that one has a hole. Also, now that I’m working out more frequently, it would be nice to add some more variety to my collection of gear!
Thanks Julie! 🙂
Wow – those clothes are so cute! I basically live in leggings and sweaters when not at work, so I would love the CALIA black leggings and the cocoon sweater!!
PS – congrats on baby PBfingers!
I would love the cocoon sweater. I don’t think it’s ever going to get warm in CT so it would be very handy!
I desperately need more running shorts! The weather is warm here in South Florida! 🙂
Love your brunch look! I’d pick a new pair of capris for spring and maybe a sports bra!
That cocoon sweater is perfect! I love it. I also am constantly out of clean leggings (for both workouts and lounging) so I’d never pass up a chance to snag up another pair.
Oooh! What a beautiful line of clothing! I hadn’t herd of CALIA before your blog post today! I really like what I see!! If I win this $150 Gift Card Giveaway, I would buy the two “main” items you featured: CALIA Seamless Tank, CALIA Effortless Dip Dye Cocoon Sweater. I really loved how you paired both outfits, and I’d do the same (although I don’t have a denim jacket, so I’d have to use something else). I hope I win though! I need some more “transitional” clothing that I can wear both to workouts, then out on the town for errands or get-togethers. Often, if I wear my workout clothes I sometimes feel under-dressed, but would still love to look good if I need to be somewhere with others quickly.
Great outfits! Those pieces look amazing! I would LOVE new leggings and definitely some sports bras!
A belated CONGRATS on your big announcement!! You and Ryan have such a fun journey ahead 🙂
On a different note, I am totally due for a new pair of cropped sweatpants and loved the look of the effortless french terry capris!
i would easily grab that tank and dip dye cocoon sweater! so so so cute!!
I’ll be 17 weeks pregnant on Saturday (due Aug 15), and I could definitely use a new, longer stretchy tank as well as that gorgeous cocoon wrap! Dressing myself is just starting to become more of a challenge as my pre-pregnancy clothes don’t have quite enough give for the little bump around my middle. 🙂
I love the cocoon sweater! Great for the transition from winter to spring
I would love new leggings!
I love it all. The leggings and that sweater are really awesome. I think I would need to purchase those!!!
This new line is all the talk among girls at my cross-fit gym. We are super excited about it! I would love another pair of cropped leggings and an additional sports bra. Love Carrie!!!
I desperately need that cocoon sweater!
That cocoon sweater would be great for spring! I could def used a new pair of Capri leggings as the weather transitions
I can use a new sports bra and I would love a jacket for cold mornings. Thanks for the giveaway Julie!
Definitely a new pair of comfy legging and a cute colored tank
I would love to get a cocoon sweater and leggings!
Actually I am desperately in need of some workout clothes that translate well into street clothes, so your adorable cocoon sweater would be perfect. And you look great in all of it by the way, congrats again on the baby!! <3
I’d really love a new tank and shorts! I might be pushing it, but I’m ready for warmer running weather!!
I need new workout pants and a sports bra, but I WANT that Cocoon Sweater!
