Classic gifts for the stylish fitness-loving lady in your life
‘Tis the season to buy things for yourself or for others, as well as spend quality time and spread holiday cheer. And if you’re at a loss for ideas on the shopping aspect, I’ve got you covered today with a list of some awesome fitness apparel for ladies, comprised of my favorite brands and gym-wardrobe staples.
I like to invest in workout wear, because it needs to last. Some of these pieces I have myself or would love to get. And they’re classic, because they likely won’t go out of style any time soon.
By the way, you can wear this stuff while working out, or even while doing your regular everyday activities in your active-wear. (See this video if you don’t know what that means.) Let’s get to the loot …
Gifts for the stylish fitness-loving lady
(If you click on each piece, you’ll be automatically directed to the appropriate website to order the item.)
And for a break-down of the above items …
- Sweet sneakers for weight-lifting. Sweet sneakers for cross-training.
- Casual sneaks to wear on your feet on the way to a yoga or barre class.
- Leg-warmers for function, but mostly fashion.
- Sockies that keep your feet dry and happy.
- Super sturdy workout leggings.
- No-pull ombre hair-ties to blend into your ponytail and a headband to keep your mane in place during a serious sweat session.
- A running jacket, a comfy jacket and a cold-weather jacket.
- Two pairs of shorty shorts for cardio.
- Some of my favorite sports bras, this one for high-impact activities, this one for style and this one for all working out.
- Loose and functional workout tops and a long-sleeve beauty.
- An awesome vest, because that’s what the cool kids are wearing to keep their torso warm these days, and they really work.
- Another fabulous pair of leggings to wear anywhere.
- Black bags are the thing. I have this one, but this one is awesome too.
- And a mat and a roller to round it all out, because every stylish fitness gal should have her own.
You can’t go wrong with classic workout pieces from the tried and tested brands like Nike, Lululemon, Under Armour and more. And when it comes to timeless basics, the solid colors of black and white are always a good choice in my book, but a pop of color can be fun too.
Happy shopping, my friends!

Questions of the day
What’s on your wish-list this year?
What’s your favorite piece of workout wear?
If I had every one of these under the tree I would be one happy lady!
YAY! I hope you get some good fitness stuff for Christmas, Megan! 🙂
‘Tis this season for gift guides! 🙂 (I am rolling my Fitness Goodies tomorrow.) This is a great one! Those no-pull hair ties are definitely a staple and on my wrist every day. Love the loot!
For sure, Heather! Soft hair ties are the best. 🙂 Looking forward to your gift ideas too!
I love my leg warmers, but they always fall down!!! They are so cute and sweater-like, but they are also kind of annoying… I need some that will stay the freak up! I’m really excited, though, the vest that I have wanted forever went on MAJOR sale last week, and my size was the only size left. sccccooorree!
Sweet! Happy vesting to you, Susie! And my leg warmers don’t stay up on shiny pants, but they do on cotton pants. 🙂 The struggle …
I love all of this- esp the hair ties!! I just bought a pair of beyond yoga pants and they are the most comfortable things ever!!
Hi Marielle! Cool! I haven’t heard of that brand. Glad you’re liking them. 🙂 Oh and CONGRATS!
I asked for that UA bag for Christmas – besides new gym shoes its the one thing that I am really hoping to get!
Totally cool, Torry! I hope you get it! I LOVE my UA bag. 🙂
Oh wow! I love all the color, especially the cool socks. Yes please!
Me too, Emily!! Hope you have a lovely day, my friend! 🙂
I asked for new tennis shoes for Christmas. I should probably add extra-strength hair ties though… my hair is very thick, so I need extra strong hair ties or my hair is just flying every where. Loving that vest!
Ohhhh the joy of super thick hair, you lucky lady!! 🙂 YAY for you! I bet the braid is your best friend when it comes to workout ‘dos!
Love the casual sneakers and leg warmers!!!! Might have to treat myself 😉
You deserve it if you do! 🙂 heheh!
I am loving that yoga mat! Those colours are perfect! I have been bringing my workouts into my apartment so a great mat is always on my list. The leg warmers are too cute, also!! xx SS
Hi Shannon! Thanks for saying hi, lady! YES for at-home workouts using a good mat. Anything you can add to make your space more useable of course. Have a great day! 🙂
I want those cozy looking socks!! Those would be awesome to throw on during yoga or after a workout. Or just live in around the house.
We need it in the cold weather! Do you have a heater in your apartment I hope? 🙂
I always appreciate a good Athleta or lululemon gift card! The best gear I have are my lulu running crops WITH POCKETS. Never messing around with those armband thingys on a run! I wish more womens fitness manufacturers will get on the girls-like-pockets-too bandwagon!
Gift cards are always welcome in my book too, Emily! And YES to pockets!
OMG that video was just hilarious!!!
Funny stuff, right Kersten? I mean, I do love my active-wear. Thanks for saying hi! 🙂
I love this roundup! More workout clothes are always on my wish list. Though I should put more regular clothes on my list too haha!
Hi Sarah! Ditto! I need ALL clothes as well. 🙂
Workout clothes ALWAYS make my wish list! I definitely need to add leg-warmers!
It’s really fun to slip into some leg-warmers, I highly suggest them, Rachel! 🙂
I love everything! Especially the leg warmers, I really want a pair of those. I feel like I always ask for socks and any warm fitness gear for the Holidays because I like to run outside as long as its not snowing or icy.
Ahh yes, you need warm stuff for outdoor fitness. Almost all of my workouts happen inside, but I like to stay warm on the walk into the gym heheh! ?
Those leg warmers are SO cute. However I doubt it would ever get chilly enough in LA for me to actually utilize them…ah a girl can dream!
This list helped me decide what to give my wife next week for her birthday. I make it a point to shower her with gifts on her birthday week because well, she deserves it! She loves running so I think a couple of items on your list would surely bring a smile on her face. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Well that is awesome to hear, Tommy! You sound like a very caring hubby! 🙂 Good work!
