A few weeks ago, Athleta was nice enough to send a $200 gift card to review their City Pant collection. I love Athleta products so I gladly accepted!
From my store visit, the following items were include as a part of my gift card: La Viva Capri in Shale, Ahimsa Top in Oatmeal Heather, Illuminate Tank in White. The following items were purchased at my own personal expense: Shiva Top 3 in Wildflower Blue, Sintra Sweater in Oatmeal Heather, and Shimmy Short in Granite Grey. I really loved all of the items I tried on, I decided to get more! :)
I had to get the La Viva Capri in Shale. These were a tough find. They were sold out online and I had to go to 2 different Athleta stores....but I found them! :)
My favorite part was the material. It was a a silky light material that made the fit so comfortable. The matte material and lack of reflective logo gave them casual appeal. The drawstring waistband and FOUR zip pockets provided athletic features that will be great for workouts.
It's really hard to get the fit down in relaxed capris, but these were spot on. They were relaxed AND fitted, giving them shape that made them wearable with casual clothes or for workouts.
I also got the Ahimsa top in Oatmeal Heather. The material was really soft and it easily made a great casual piece. It was flowy while still be flattering, and will go well with almost any bottom!
I really love my Shiva 3 top in White, so I snatched up another in Wildflower Blue without hesitation. The Wildflower Blue was a really pretty blue with a slight purple tone. I really like that this top doesn't have reflective logos. It makes it easy transition from a gym cover-up to a casual top.
The Illuminate tank in White was an easy pick for its unique neckline.I like how a racerback bra follows the neckline of the top. (I'm wearing Athleta's Namaste Seamless bra underneath.) The material is sheer, but it makes a great summer piece. I plan on wearing this to the gym and also to the pool with linen trousers and a straw hat.
I liked the Sintra sweater and Shimmy shorts so much I ended up buying them both! The Sintra sweater in Oatmeal Heather is a light, airy top that is perfect for summer. They looked like a pair of casual shorts, but the material was silky and dry-fit. They are made of the same material of the City Pant collection (which I love!). I could easily wear these out or at the gym.
I love my new products! They are so versatile and can be easily worn from the gym to the street. I have so many options now its hard to choose! I love wearing my La Viva Capris commuting through the city. How do you wear your Athleta pants?
