Put away those summer styles and break out the fall fashion! A capsule wardrobe is a great way to maintain effortless style all season long. Grab a few wardrobe staples that you can mix and match, and never run out of outfit options!! This capsule wardrobe from Old Navy pairs neutrals with deep greens and fun patterns to add a bit of playfulness. See our fall capsule wardrobe inspiration below.
Tops: Get yourself a basic layering tank, a casual long sleeve, a cozy Henley, and a puff-sleeve blouse so you have the essentials for any occasion.
Sweaters: Snuggle up! Grab a cute cardigan, a fashion-forward polo sweater, and a trendy plaid poncho so you can stay warm when it starts to get cold.
Bottoms: Keep your bottoms simple and opt for classic boyfriend jeans, versatile cargo pants, and a pretty maxi skirt. You can pair these options with any of the above tops for a rockin’ autumn look.
Shoes: Fashion starts with the feet! Your footwear can make or break your outfit. For fall, get a pair of cheetah-print slip-on sneakers, neutral Chelsea boots, and adorable snakeskin flats!
Style inspo for your boyfriend jeans . . . classic doesn’t mean boring!
Cargo pants can be styled in so many ways!
Think outside the box and make the most of your maxi skirt.
No matter how much you love fitness or enjoy a good workout, there are always those times when you just can’t find the motivation to get up and get moving. It can seriously be a struggle. I find that having some cute workout gear can help put a little pep in my step though, and I make it a point to do a little refresh of my workout digs every so often. I also don’t love spending all of my money on leggings and sports bras though, so I’m always on the hunt for quality gear that’s still affordable. This is where Fabletics comes in! They have SO many adorable styles for all body types and personalities, and the quality of clothing is awesome! See what Fabletics is all about below.
If you’re new to Fabletics, or you want to rejoin as a VIP, you can grab 80% off everything right now!! This is a seriously awesome deal. I knew I needed some fresh workout gear and received this offer via email, and I couldn’t resist!! The best part? There’s no commitment for a membership – simply cancel before the 5th of the month and you won’t be charged the monthly fee. Winning!! I ordered 10 different pieces and what should have cost me over $700 was less than $130…yes, you read that right. Now, I’m someone who is active often and lives in workout gear most of the time, so this was a no brainer for me. But even if you’re curious about trying out Fabletics, these prices are insanely good for athletic digs. See the pieces I got below! For reference, everything fits true to size. I usually wear an XS, but I ordered everything in size small because I don’t like my workout clothes squeezing me like a stuffed sausage – I like a little room to move and breathe.
This black faux leather set was definitely my favorite, mostly because it’s 100% my vibe. The leggings have fun velvet striped sections that add a lot of dimension, and the sports bra has a strappy back that makes for a fun surprise!
This sculptknit set (pardon the sun shining directly on my mirror) is subtly sexy. Even though it’s full coverage, the skin-hugging fabric (which is super soft, btw) of has tiny little cutouts throughout that are meant to accentuate a woman’s natural curves! The leggings are compression-style, and the top has thumb holes, and I just love a top with thumb holes.
Meow! If you know me, you know I love a good pop of leopard print. This bra is medium impact so it’s great for those more intense workouts, but the strappy back makes it subtly sexy! These oasis leggings are buttery smooth and what really sold me was…the pockets, obviously.
I love me a crop top, and this cropped tank is made with compression fabric so it’s cute but still holds everything in place! I feel like I could wear it out and about or for a fast vinyasa yoga class and I would still be comfy. I love that these leggings are moto-style and add a little bit of edge to your workout outfit!
Go green! Get ready to shine with this set – the gorgeous olive green shade has a slight sheen that makes you shimmer in the light. And why not, because you are a star! The tank has a built-in bra but it is a little lowcut, so if you’re well-endowed, just beware of this. These leggings are super comfy. I could see myself throwing a cardigan over this tank and wearing this set out around town!

As summer begins to wind down, the mornings and evenings will start to cool down and that means it’s the perfect weather for an outdoor workout! There’s something about that crisp, fresh air that really helps to motivate and inspire. And if you’re just not quite ready to share space and swap sweat at your local gym yet, let this post be your guide to everything you need for the perfect at-home fitness routine. Get all the info below.
The Equipment
Having the proper workout equipment is essential. The good thing is you really don’t need much to get a great workout in! Multifunctional pieces are definitely preferable as you’ll be able to keep your workouts versatile and effective. Adjustable dumbbells and an adjustable, portable kettlebell are really all you need for weightlifting. Bicep curls, tricep dips, squats, and deadlifts can be done with these weights to help build muscle. Resistance training will help tone and define. Use resistance bands, a balance board (this will kill your core!), and these fun workout dice to get a full body workout. Cardio training will build your endurance and boost your heart health. A stationary exercise bike or cordless jump rope will get your heart pumping and the sweat dripping…embrace it! For the full package, this all-in-one portable home gym gives you the total gym experience from the comfort of your own home.

I find myself way more motivated to workout when I have an adorable outfit to put on! And comfort is obviously key, too. Get yourself a good pair of athletic sneakers and a few staple pieces that will help you power through a powerful workout. For women, a couple cute sports bras, leggings, and joggers will get you through any workout you take on. When I’m doing intense cardio or any kind of HIIT workout, a pair of high-waisted, flexible leggings paired with a high impact sports bra is perfect. When I’m doing a more restorative yoga practice, a cozy bralette and soft joggers help me wind down and really relax into the moment. For the men, running shorts, training pants, t-shirts, and hoodies are great for running, weightlifting, or a recreational sports game.
If you can’t get enough of cute athleticwear, Fabletics has affordable and stylish fitness gear for every body and every activity. See the post here.
And if yoga is your true love (I’m right there with you), get everything you need to get your flow on. See the post here.
