We’ve always held a special place in our hearts and wardrobes for lululemon, thanks to their high-performing, insanely comfortable styles for workouts and everyday wear. It comes as no surprise that our staffers and stylists build their athletic attire around the brand’s versatile staples, from their cult-favorite leggings to covetable new pieces like lightweight tanks and layerable jackets. To celebrate our love for lululemon, we asked three sporty staffers to share the looks that help them serve up style on the tennis court, trails, and yoga mat. Read on to shop their favorites and add them to your own rotation.

I’ve played tennis every summer since I was in grade school. Once you get the hang of the game and learn a few tricks, it becomes so addicting and fun to play with family and friends. It’s a total-body workout that leaves me feeling great after every practice, both physically and mentally. When it comes to athleticwear for tennis, I tend towards a uniform look. lululemon has so many classic tennis wear pieces and I love that they offer the clean, sleek lines that I look for in tennis skirts and tops. Getting motivated to go out and play is the goal, and if I can look great while being active, that’s the cherry on top.
lululemon clothing fits and performs so well on the court that I never have to worry about what I’m wearing; instead, I can devote my whole attention to the game. The Pace Rival Mid Rise Skirt is a great piece to add to any tennis player's closet, plus it has fully-functional pockets. The Sculpt Tank Top is another classic tank that is one of my go-tos because of its four-way stretch fabric and breathable mesh panel. lululemon’s Goal Smasher Jacket is perfect for early-morning practices—I love the sporty vibe of its high neckline and slightly relaxed fit. Last but not least, I’m a sunscreen worshipper and can never get too much protection from UV rays. A crisp cap or visor is a must!

I’ve always loved to run—it’s an amazing stress-reliever and helps me disconnect for some me-time. Since relocating to Florida, running has become my favorite way to work on my tan and get my heart rate up at the same time. Lately, I’ve been enjoying the Clearwater Beach and Pinellas trails in Tampa. I like to go three to four times per week, blast music, and take off! Running gear boils down to comfortability and durability; you don't want to have to worry about the waistband of your leggings curling over, you want to clear your mind and focus on the run. lululemon’s lightweight pieces fit like a glove and help me do just that. Whenever I buy a new outfit, I can’t wait to put it on and get out there.
My athletic style changes with my mood—depending on the day, I might throw on a white tee and black leggings or pick out funky tie dye leggings and a neon pink sports bra. I love that lululemon fits my ever-changing personal style while giving me the comfort I need. lululemon’s quality is also superior to most other brands I’ve tried. The Run Times Bra is great for high impact activities and keeps me cool and comfortable on runs. I love the breathable, stretchy material of the Hotty Hot High-Rise 4” Short, which is easy to mix and match with multiple tops. Right now, I’m wearing the Swiftly Tech Racerback Tank Top 2.0 on repeat with the Fast and Free Women’s Run Hat to top it off.
lululemon makes it so fun to put together an active look—it’s almost as fun as putting together a look for an event. These pieces help me look and feel my best so I can clear my mind and focus on my run from start to finish.

I started practicing yoga as a classical violinist to improve my posture and core strength on stage—standing tall and exuding energy is all part of a great performance. Now, as an editor, I spend a lot of time at my desk, so it’s even more important to keep my body engaged with regular yoga sessions. I like to start my day with a Vinyasa flow and wind down in the evenings with restorative poses. One of the best things about yoga is that you can do it anytime and anywhere. On sunny days, it’s fun to take my mat out to the pool for a natural hot-yoga session and jump in the water to cool off.
I’m a fan of understated details and breezy materials that make getting dressed and working out feel as effortless as possible. This summer, I’m wearing lululemon’s Long Line Energy Bra and Fast and Free Short in an effervescent print that reminds me of days at the beach. The sweat-wicking Luxtreme™ material keeps me feeling cool and supported through every pose and pairs well with a super-soft All Yours Crop Tank Top. Whenever I want to take my active style on the go, I slip on APL’s TechLoom Breeze sneakers and pack my new favorite Take Form Yoga Mat in lululemon’s Adjustable Yoga Mat Bag.
I love the way these lululemon pieces help me feel balanced and energized throughout my yoga practice. The brand’s fresh, comfortable looks always make me look forward to working out and encourage me to make mindful movement a part of my daily routine.
