A Lululemon-inspired longline sports bra you can wear for your next morning workout class, grocery run, or *even* your "let me rot all day in bed" moment. It's supportive, not too compressive, and lightweight, so it'll be delightful in warmer weather.
A spaghetti strap romper that's so effortlessly cute, you'll want to live in it all summer long. It's got that perfectly loose fit that still looks put-together, adjustable straps for the right amount of support, and (the best part) pockets. The lightweight fabric makes it ideal for sweltering hot days when anything else feels like too much. Just throw it on with sandals, sneakers, or literally no shoes at all — psst, I think it's perfect as a beach coverup!
A well-constructed satin midi skirt with the same shine, look, and silhouette as pricier silk options but is sooo much more affordable. You'll be itching to strut your stuff in this whenever you get the chance because you can wear it on dressier or more casual occasions.
A pair of high-waisted running shorts that look just like Lululemon without the super steep price tag. These are lightweight, breathable, and come with a deep zippered pocket so your phone won't end up flying across the floor mid-squat. The stretchy fabric moves with you, the tulip hem adds a cute 'lil flair, and the high-rise waistband is *chef's kiss*. Whether you're going on a hot girl walk or actually working out, these shorts are ready for the job.
And a pair of cozy drawstring shorts so comfy, you'll consider canceling plans just to lounge in them. They have a soft, lightweight feel and stylish look.

A pair of ~dreamlux~ leggings that are the closest thing you'll get to Lululemon Align leggings without dropping major cash on them. They not only look the same, but they're also soft, comfy, *and* not see-through — which means you don't have to worry when you do a deep lunge at the gym. Reviewers also like these more than Lulus because they stay in good condition over time, the color doesn't fade, and they don't fall down when you're wearing them.
A ribbed "Brami" tank that's redefining what it means to go braless and fool people doing it.

A pair of '90s-themed Teva sandals with three different adjustability points so you can have the perfect fit around your foot before heading to the beach, lake, or river.
