Summer is almost here and if the weather where you are is anything like the weather in Charlotte right now, there’s no denying we’re in for a H-O-T summer. If your workout wardrobe is in dire need of a summertime refresh, I think you’ll love this afternoon’s giveaway from Lorna Jane.
I am a big fan of the brand (you can see a few of my Lorna Jane favorites featured on the blog in the following two blog posts: Favorite Workout Capris & Tights and Best Sports Bras for Small Chests) and since the previous Lorna Jane giveaway I featured on the blog back in December last year had nearly 3,000 entries, I have a feeling you guys love Lorna Jane, too!
I actually had the chance to meet Lorna Jane last summer at the IDEA World Fitness Convention and walked away impressed by her strong work ethic, creativity and business acumen. It takes someone incredibly passionate and business-savvy to create a multi-million dollar business and after hearing her speak, it’s clear to see that she truly does live and breathe the company’s MOVE, NOURISH, BELIEVE mantra.
Plus, she sure knows how to make some high-quality workout apparel that’s both functional and cute. High fives all around!
Lorna Jane Summer Finds
With springtime temperatures already making their way into the 90s, I am pretty sure this pregnant lady is in for one heck of a sweaty summer which is why I was grateful when my friends at Lorna Jane sent me a new pair of shorts and a lightweight, flowy tank to review.
First, let’s chat about the Macy Run Shorts. They are, without a doubt, the most comfortable pregnancy-friendly workout shorts I’ve tried on to date. The super-thick band doesn’t dig into my sides and the drawstring waist makes them incredibly forgiving.
Bonus: I’m thinking these shorts will be fantastic post-pregnancy, too! They don’t ride up and the hot pink color is right up my alley. Plus, there’s a little zip pocket in the back which is perfect for a house key if you’re wearing the shorts on a run or walk outside.
The Lie Low Excel Tank is made of mesh fabrics making it ultra lightweight and fast-drying. Perfect for spinning and interval workouts!
The criss-cross mesh detailing in the back is not only cooling, but it also allows you to show off an adorable strappy sports bra. I personally love this feature, especially when I pair the tank with a unique and functional bras like the Amber Sports Bra I’m wearing above.
Can you tell I’m on a big mesh-loving kick right now? The sports bra comes with removable padding and supports my chest with style!
I also had the chance to try out a new pair of Lorna Jane tights which I had a feeling I’d love since another pair of their tights made my “PBF Favorites” list last year!
The Existence Panelled Tights have a soft wide waistband (again, very pregnancy-friendly) and the material is both smoothing and breathable. They’re flattering but also functional and held up well for me in both a spinning and barre workout.
I paired them with the Bambini Sports Bra (another cute and supportive find!) and the Kate Gym Tank, a soft, relaxed-fit tank that flows over the body and is truly comfortable enough to wear to bed at night!
