Yoga Style

Thursday, April 12th, 2012

Well, it had to happen…I want fancy new yoga clothes to wear to the studio. (In my defense, I didn’t really have yoga clothes before I started going to class.) So far I’ve been a really good girl and only bought one pair of yoga pants, but I LOVE them. I think they’ve made a difference, at least in my confidence ;)

Here are a few things on my list so far…

I find myself gravitating towards loose, flowing, longer tops. And I’m really loving the pants with little skirts attached. I need some kind of reward system for myself, like after going to 25 classes I get one new piece of clothing. That could be a good motivator! :)
