I need new work out clothes-FAST

Okay-
I need some updated workout gear. I have been wearing the same old tshirts and outdated capri pants that were once black. I think these clothes are 6 years or greater in age, because I remember buying the pants after my daughter was born. PLEASE help, my husband is beginning to make jokes.
I have checked out target, walmart and jcpenney. Any ideas?
 
Here are some ideas from someone who hates to go shopping and would rather visit 5 stores online than drive 60 miles to go to one good store and find not much to buy!:

www.victoriassecret.com has some yoga pants on sale now for 2/$40. I found the regular yoga pants to be too long in the waist for me, but the roll down capris and bootcuts are great. And their return policy is pretty good: they sent me a pre-printed label that I could use to return anything I didn't want, with them reducing my refund by only $4.95.

I LOVE the roll-down pants from www.fitcouture.com . Pricier, but obviously better quality than the VS ones, and soooo comfy! (I splurged on a few pair with some of my tax refund...since I wouldn't be using it for the Cathe trip. :-( )

www.carushka.com has a sale section.

www.marika.com also has a sale section.

www.championcatalog.com has occasionaly sales.

Try other stores online: www.reebok.com , www.nike.com (I'm just assuming that these are the URL's) and see what they have on sale.
 
I like www.athleta.com

A little pricey but great quality, it holds up a lot longer than anything else I had. But they do have good sales going on every once in a while.

I dunno but I love my stuff from Target. It's champion I believe. When you can find it on clearance, it is usually way cheap. I find that I have to really look on the clearance there cuz most of the stuff is like extra extra large. Dick's has cute stuff and Kohl's sometimes has good deals.

Thanks for all of the great tips everyone! I am set to go shopping (online, I would rather cut off a limb than go to the mall).
 
My favorite is Nike Cardio. Adidas tops are too shiny and thin. I feel like I still need a bra with their built in bra tops. Same thing with UA tops. Adidas pants are too long and the material is too thick and cottony looking for my sweaty body. I can't wear anything from Champion since they are made for tall people. The only thing at Paiva I've found that wicks sweat is Nike too. I hear BCGB workout clothes, while sexy looking, are not very good with wicking the sweat. JCPennys usually doesn't carry XS. When I do find an XS, it's not in a style appropriate for cardio. I can sometimes find clearanced Nike at Dicks and Sports Authority. I'm thinking of splurging on a Lululemon outfit.
 
Mikkia, I seem to have fantastic luck at Marshall's. I just picked up two Nike Cardio bra-tops. I LOVE NIKE!!! Both were just $7.99. They ticket said "out of season". Not sure why they are out of season, but they are very cool and stylish.

Good luck!
 
I LOVE LOVE LOVE my lululemon. here is their site.
http://www.lululemon.com they are a company that sells here in the usa but originated in canada. the quality is wonderful. i've had some of the same bra tops for 3 years, . . washed and worn many a times and they still look brand new. i actually just bought 3 more just last week. i love the very simple style and the fact that the tank tops have a built in support bra that works great without needing additional support!
I also shop http://www.prana.com/storefront/products.aspx
and http://www.fitcouture.com/ good luck!
 
Has anyone ordered from ohmybod? Do the sizes in pants run small or large? They're sized s/m and m/l - UGH! I should probably go with the latter because I'm taller, but nothing like a droopy rearend to start your day off poorly, lol.

Any input? Thanks.
 
Does anyone know what brand the black pants with the white strip at the waist that Jai and Lorraine wear in DM are?
 
I love, love, love the workout clothes at Dick's Sporting Goods. Don't know if you have one nearby?

Good luck!
 
I get a lot of my Nike Dri-Fit's from Ebay (New with tags). When I dont Ebay it, I go to Target and buy their Champion's. They have a very reasonable priced, fantastic dry fit version that is out of this world.
