    I saw some really cute stuff at old navy last time I went. I was gonna buy them but i usually just go looking all janky in my sweats and baggy shirts. I dont know about comfort, but they were SO cute. And all the commercials say they fit so that stuff doesnt "wiggle" lol

    I work out in Old Navy compression pants, sports bra and a tank or t shirt. I just love the old navy pants, cause the material doesn;t pill when my thighs rub together. lol Plus, they are super comfy and cute, and I swear they are slimming. Plus, they have the zipper pouch in the back so you can put a key, fob, etc.

    If I'm just working out at home, I wear spandex shorts and a sports bra. If I'm going to the track, I throw some shorts and a tank on top, so as to not blind anyone :P

    I enjoy Nike's dri-fit stuff. They usually have a good sale going on online.

    I like Fila from Kohl's. Kohl's has a one day sale just about every other day, so I wait until they go on sale. TJ Max has some nice affordable workout clothes but it is a hit or miss.

    Nike and adidas outlets are also good for a nice outfit at affordable prices.

    If you come into a rich inheritance than I recommend Lucy and Luluman.{sp?} .

    I love cute workout clothes! I find them really motivating, but I refuse to pay Lulu prices for them. Target C9 sports bras are my favorite. They hold things in, wash well, come in a bunch of cute colors, and are pretty cheap. I went into Old Navy for the first time in ages recently and was really impressed with their new activewear line; for better or worse they're knocking off Lululemon at about 1/5th the price. I'm currently on the hunt for new yoga pants - I bought a pair of the new premium ones at Target (around $40) and the old style cotton ones ($20). I'm still not sure which I like best - I'm not sure the compression ones are better enough to justify being double the price. I've also found really cute stuff from the GapFit line and Gap is always having sales. I do love the stuff at Lucy, but it's almost always out of my budget. I occasionally find cute things there on clearance, and once my Nordstrom Rack had tons of Lucy stuff (all of it in extremely small or large sizes, sadly).

    We have a ginormous outlet mall near here, but the lady stuff isn't very fun. I WISH I had the $$ to buy those others! I'll check out Ross. I always forget about them.

    I'm cheap so I went with these really awesome looser fitting (almost like yoga pants) danskin pants from walmart for 14 bucks. I also have an old pair of yoga pants and capri workout pants. I wear old tshirts and sports bras....I'm not too picky about what I'm going to get all sweaty in though. lol

    I find lots of cute stuff at stores like TJMaxx and Marshall's. My favorite thing to work out in is a sports bra with a flimsy loose racer backed tank top and workout capri length pants. They have a number of these tanks at Old Navy right now. Some in the workout clothes section, some more just casual wear.

    I second lululemon, and add lucy!

    I love them both, but lucy tends to be a little more affordable. All of my stuff is from these two places.

    Go to Ross (dress for less) and it's literal. All of the clothes will eventually get worn out if you use it often, so grab a few. Why will you get something for $20 if you can get the exact same brand for $5. Grab 4 of the same work out clothes-- in different colors if you like. not only is it cheaper, but it will last longer because you don't wear the same work out clothes all the time.
