Yoga clothes in the workplace?

Would you wear your yoga clothes to work?

This article in the Chicago Tribune, "Workout Wear Goes to Work", highlights new workout clothes, particularly yoga wear, that women are wearing to the office.

I have to be honest. When I go to yoga I leave far too sweaty to go anywhere other than maybe a quick trip to the grocery store. I definitely will wear yoga inspired clothes to the office, such as my TranquiliT skirt dress with a cardigan or a cardishawl. However, I tend to wear black pants with a t-shirt or tank to yoga or the gym. Definitely NOT work appropriate!

My office is moving to a new space in the coming months that is complete with a large gym but while it might be tempting to workout and then head right to work, I just don't think that will ever be a realistic possibility for me. I am of the mind that if you work out and aren't sweating, you probably aren't working out hard enough!

Revelry Review

If you only ever own one piece of clothing, this should be it: the TranquiliT cardishawl (or hoodie). If you click on the link you will be taken to a video to see all the ways you can wear it.

And here are the reasons why you should wear it:

1. It's versatile. I own one...no, two...okay, several, and I always have one with me year round. It's great for post-yoga class in the fall or getting warm in the freezing air conditioning in the summer. I wear one on every plane ride I take (because let's face it, they never get the temperature right on those things!)

2. It's comfy. Sooooo very soft! Feels like pajamas.

3. It's good for the earth. All the TranquiliT products are made with bamboo and organic cotton.

4. It's pretty and comes in a variety of colors. With the other pieces in the line, you can mix and match for great outfits.

5. The clothing line is part of a small woman-owned business, which are always good to support.

I can promise you that you will not be disappointed. Treat yourself to one (or several) today!
