Making activewear, loungewear and cute workout outfits work for daily life is what I’d consider a passion project of mine. Yes, I think leggings are pants. Yes, I will wear my “workout” clothes to hangout at my family/friends homes and to run errands. And come January? All I want to wear is something stretchy, easy and admittedly looks like I’m on the way to a yoga class. Jeans? GET OUT.
Kidding…sort of.
I’m still wearing jeans. And I’ll try my best for nights out or dinner or whatever requires something other than lounge. But on a daily basis, I’m sticking to sports bras, leggings, sneaks, sweatshirts, cozy pants and any jacket that’ll keep me warm. But this doesn’t mean these pieces can’t be cute, too.
And for anyone who maybe wants to get back into the groove of workouts, whether it’s at home or a local class, cute workout outfits always help boost the confidence + motivation (anyone else get suuuper nervous in a new workout class? I’m with ya).
8 Cute Nordstrom Looks: Casual Activewear & Lounge Edition
SO. What started this little passion project of mine? Nordstrom’s storefront. We officially have our very own TME Storefront where you can shop our faves, outfit inspo, and anything we might add-to-cart. First, we’re starting off with some workout outfits that go from the gym to errands, coffee dates, dog walks, etc. But, I’m sure we’ll come out with more so, let us know what kinda outfits you guys would be interested in seeing rounded up!
Nordstrom Look 1: Dog Walks
One way to make sweatshirts look like an intentional styling moment? Go for super sleek ones and wear with a chic jacket. She’s casual, but cool. If you need even more warmth, wear some fleece-lined leggings under the pants. Obviously, I had Shana and the cutest girl Nieve in mind with this one.

Nordstrom Look 2: Barre to Coffee
I’ve been lovvvving chocolate brown everything (someone tell 10 year old Danielle, asap. She’d never believe you). When it comes to activewear? Yup, still loving. This is the kinda cute workout outfit that takes you from a class to the coffee shop down the street. Or, just to the coffee shop…those steps count! Right, Laurel??

Nordstrom Look 3: Errands Around The City
I bet you can tell Shana found those leggings and sent them right over to me. They’re après ski adjacent. But since I have yet to truly do that, this is my running errands around town outfit. Those sneakers are sooo comfortable (I’ve been wearing mine daily), and Fear Of God makes some of my fave hoodies…they’re incredibly soft.

Nordstrom Look 4: Gym to Groceries
You can wear this to the gym, you can wear this to the grocery store. Or both if you’re feeling extra motivated. The real point: combine deep reds and purples with navy, brown and pine green. And plaid leggings? C’mon those are pants! Also if you feel too casual in hoodies, go for the turtleneck sweatshirts.

Nordstrom Look 5: Yoga Class
Winter blues? Wear the light summer colors. And if you’re going for a workout class that involves a lot of bendy movements like yoga — tied leggings. And socks with grips if you don’t like going barefoot (same).

Nordstrom Look 6: School Drop Off to Dance Class
If you’re someone who prefers a loose workout top, that Beyond Yoga long-sleeve comes in other great colors. And, that sports bra looks super supportive. But, the jacket’s the real star of the show here. Forever loving our wintery prints.

Nordstrom Look 7: Pilates Class
If I was a Pilates princess, I’d wear this outfit. Or I’d wear it just so I can feel like a ballerina in those socks, haha. And the sneakers are actually Sorel, so they’re waterproof. Ahmazing. And sunny yellow pants for the extra serotonin boost.

Nordstrom Look 8: Morning Run
I started off by grabbing those leggings because how pretty is that color? Then I decided this combo of white, shades of blue and mauvey-purple looked great together without being too matchy-matchy. And, again…a chic sweatshirt to feel a little less casual. Morning run, but make it cute.

Well, what’s the verdict? Are leggings pants or just for workouts? And let us know what else you guys wanna see on our Nordstrom storefront, please!! I’d love to know.
