If you know me, you know I am a total fan girl for Athleta. Heck, I was shopping Athleta long before it existed in brick-and-mortar. Why the obsession? Because Athleta GETS it. They design high quality gear for the busy, working Mama who needs to do it ALL…and needs to do it all in a great pair of yoga pants! 😘
I won’t deny that Athleta is pricey. But, when it comes to covering your 🍑 BUM 🍑, never…sacrifice…quality 😬 That’s why this weekend is VITAL! It’s Athleta’s semi-annual Friends & Family Event. Enjoy 20% off your ENTIRE purchase, friends! I’ve rounded up 12 of my favorites to help jumpstart your shopping spree. Let’s get to the goods!

My Stats
For size reference, I’m 5’4″ (5’5″ according to Army paperwork 😋), 135 lbs, 34B. I typically wear a S in Athleta pants and an XS or S in Athleta tops and a S or M in Athleta bras.
The LooCs
Elation 7/8 Blossom Tight + Blossom High Neck Bra
The super flattering fit and buttery soft material of these Elation Blossom tights will have you reaching for them even on non-gym days. The white underlay beneath the brilliant floral print works to keep the tights from being see-through. These may be my new favorite workout pants.
Pair with the Blossom High Neck Bra for a perfectly matched set. Or wear separately with any of the rainbow of colors the Elation tights come in. This bra can even double as a swim top. Its high neck keeps the girls right in place with no embarrassing “spillage” during inverted poses or high intensity activities.
Limitless Keyhole Tank + Stash Pocket Salutation Peony 7/8 Tight + Uptempo Hoodie
This is 💯% my workout style right here: a gorgeous pair of tights topped with an easy tank. The Limitless Keyhole Tank fits slim. But, as I mentioned in the try-on, sizing up does not add any extra width…only length…so stay with your regular size. I ended up going with a S in the camo print, since its dark pattern shows less lumps & bumps than the light, solid color.
The compression fit of the Stash Pocket Salutation Peony 7/8 Tight make them ideal for intense cardio sessions on the elliptical or treadmill. The stash pocket provides easy music storage, without the risk of things falling out along the way. I wish the Elation tights came in this perfectly pastel print, too. It’s like wearing a piece of art!
Throw on the featherweight Uptempo Hoodie (add vest for Arctic temps!) for a cozy layer that can take you to the grocery store, school pick-up, and all the other necessary stops on your daily to-do list. It comes in several colors, including this light blue and a gorgeous, icy purple!
Running Free 3.5″ Shorts + Cloudlight Hybrid Top
Calling all outdoor runners! Use the Friends & Family discount to stock up on a pair (or 3) of these Running Free shorts for whenever those warmer temps decide to show up. I absolutely LOVE their wide waistband. It is soft, doesn’t dig in, and avoids sagging even as you sweat. 3.5″ is about the shortest I’ll go on inseam, but Athleta manages to design this short-short with zero cheek exposure! Plus, that neon 🧡 orange color is DA 💣!!!
The longer 4″ Mesh Racer Run shorts give you an extra half inch inseam length, if you’re really craving that extra coverage. I’m not so crazy about its traditional waist band and lack of inner drawstring for adjustments. But the slanted stash pocket is such a cool detail. And that COLOR 💜💜💜!!
After your intense cardio sesh, throw on the blissful Cloudlight Hybrid top. for some extra warmth. What makes it Hybrid? Does it plug in at night, run on sweat and sunlight, or save the planet?? I have no clue….I just know this sporty top is aptly named because, yes friends, it truly is soft as a cloud ⛅️!! Size down on this relaxed layer.
Skyline Pants + Breezy Scoop V Tee
These Skyline pants are back for another season and I am NOT mad about it. I snagged a pair in black last year, and wore them non-stop. This is definitely the way to smuggle some Athleta into the office. Pair these chic tie-waist pants with a cropped jacket and heels, and you are ready to TCB, my friend.
Swap your work top for this Breezy Scoop V Tee and 💥BAM💥– instant weekend warrior! The subtle burnout texture adds interest to an otherwise staple piece. The tee will be the perfect choice for hot, humid days ahead.
