I fell in love with Athleta last winter just before quarantine life hit. Shana took me into the store and we tried on a bunch of awesome pieces that were the perfect blend of cute and comfy. Little did I know how much we were going to need that once Covid hit. Fast forward to a few months later: I was hooked on everything Athleta, from their Cabo Linen Line to their joggers to their Skyline Pants to their Destination Maxi Dress. (It’s safe to say I’m a little obsessed.) Their clothes give me all the comfort I’m craving right about now.
Currently Obsessed: 2 Athleta Outfits To Snap Up Right Now
Athleta rarely goes on sale, but this week they’re having their Friends & Family sale: starting with early access for cardmembers (any Gap, inc cardholders–Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Athleta) on September 9, and for the main event September, 10-14, take 20% off your purchase. Trust me, this is not a sale you want to miss! Aside from alllll of those things I listed above, here are two new favorite outfits from Athleta I’ll be wearing all the time this fall:
My Daily Uniform This Fall: Athleta Salutation Joggers & Essence Flow Top
You guys. This outfit? LOVE. Like, beyond . . . every day after the shower I’m reaching for this top or these joggers and often both at the same time. The joggers are incredibly comfortable–soft, high-rise without creating muffin-top, and the perfect blend of a legging and jogger fit. They also come in solid colors, but I’m personally loving the black and grey camo print!
Athleta’s Salutation Joggers (small petite): Super-crazy soft, these are the perfect blend of legging and jogger. (In regular, tall and petite sizes, and also in solid colors in regular, tall, petite and plus sizes.)
Essence Flow Top (small): My favorite kind of top ever: soft, comfy, off-the-shoulder and not too tight. (In regular, tall, petite and plus sizes and grey, sage and a pretty bright pink color.)
Golden Goose Sneakers: LOVE these sneakers. They’re comfortable and go with everything.
The Most Versatile Dress Ever: Athleta Crosstown Track Dress
I’ve always loved a good sweatshirt dress but especially now. The whole idea of a one-and-done outfit is just so appealing. Wear it now with sneakers, later with leggings and boots . . . this one is comfy enough for lounging at home but works for running errands and actually leaving the house. The bottom hem has zippers on both sides so you can customize the look if you want a slit on one or both sides–it’s a great way to wear it with leggings, and I love that it’s not too tight on the bottom.
Crosstown Track Dress: I’m wearing a small petite here because I knew I wanted it to be a little shorter (I’m 5’4″), but honestly I think a regular would have been fine too, especially with those cute zippers on the sides.
ABLE Merly Jacket (s): The denim jacket I wear with everything. Perfect length, perfect fit and from an ethical, sustainable fashion company.
Golden Goose Sneakers: LOVE these sneakers. They’re comfortable and go with everything.
St. Anne Diaper Bag: I get compliments on this bag EVERY time I wear it. It’s my FAVORITE diaper bag and is available in a TON of awesome patterns. (This one is called the Axis Collection, and I’ve got my eye on the Vaquero Collection.) Monogramming is $5 extra and it makes the best baby shower gift!
ABLE Name Tag Necklace: I bought this for myself this past spring and love it . . . I’ve got three tags (one each for Greenlea, Ozzie & Zack) and love the way they all lay together. I pretty much just keep it on and it’s stayed nice and shiny.

XOXO,
Scotti
Not to rain on the Athleta parade (I love them too!) but I found a great dupe for the Salutation jogger on Amazon. This is not a typical rec for me, as I would usually prefer to shop a B Corp like Athleta, but all the reviews on the Salutation said the pockets stuck out- as they do on Scotti, who otherwise looks cute. So I went looking and found the dupe (size up).
