sexy workout clothes

Does anyone have any favorite stores for buying cute workout clothes? In my pilates class yesterday the teacher had a loose shirt that the front went up to her neck straight across her collar bone, and then was cut out in the back to show off her back, and she had a cute sports bra that came together like an X on the back with a small ring in the center. That was a horrible description, but it was really cute and unlike anything I had seen. I thought she said it was a "spider back" sports bra. I tried googling the name of the company she said it was from and only came up with this: http://www.shaktiactivewear.com/ (which they do have cute clothes, but I didn't see what she was wearing).

What about you? Where have you found cute workout clothes? I'm thinking it might be a nice incentive at the halfway point, to buy myself some new workout gear :)

    Lululemon! Expensive, but in my opinion most of their stuff is totally worth it.

    Sounds like lulu lemon. Super expensive, but seriously worth it. I have washed that stuff and worn/used it, sweated in it, etc like crazy and NO ISSUES. Sizes are always consistent (but tight, for example I wear a size 4 at Express and a size 6 at lulu because otherwise too tight). The fabric is perfect, the moisture wicking is unbelievable, and the sales people are great. Website is good for ordering too, and I think they have no shipping fees for US and Canada.

    The clothes are best for running or yoga/pilates, and they tell you what each thing is specifically for, but I also use the long pants in spin class or for running errands/lounging etc. My 11 year-old wears their yoga clothes too for yoga and some of the tank tops just out and about since they are so cute.

    I found a bunch of lululemon clothes on ebay and I'm so glad I did! Great investment, and of course cheaper than buying new.

    I also had a pair of extremely flattering shorts I found at TJ Maxx. I think the brand was Yoga Girl? I'm sad I lost them :(

    TJMaxx is the way to go. they have a good variety most of the time, and prices can't be beat. Better than even the online "warehouse" stores. Remember, attitude is half the cuteness! :)

    Cami's with a shelf bra and adjustable straps on top of a black sports bra are my fav and my yoga pants from Stitches on sale for $10 (usually $15-20) are still going strong after 2 years, very very minor pilling (significantly less than TNA pants which are known for pilling despite $50-100 price tags) or stretched-out-ness

    So my workout outfits cost less <$15 each (bra + tank + pants) are bright, cheerful and sexy yet functional (i.e. I like the fold over yoga pants best so that my pants don't fall down while spinning)

    It's not showing a view of the back, but it looks to me like maybe what you described? I found it in the clearance section, which is good news if this is it! They have it in black as well. Hey, I might even order one myself!

    I really like Targets pants (the premium ones, not cotton) and I find a lot of good stuff at TJ Maxx, just got some new Nike tops and Adidas sports bras...takes a little while to look, but only spent like $30 :)

    Definitely Lululemon and Body Language (http://www.bodylanguagesportswear.com/default.htm). Nike also makes some very cute stuff now and so does Stella McCartney for Adidas.

    They're all expensive but when I feel like I look good I feel great and somehow I push myself harder in my workouts :)
