Looking to update your workout wardrobe the pocket-friendly way? Here are 5 ways to go gym luxe on a budget.
Whether you’re a die-hard gym junkie or simply dabbling in a spot of yoga, one thing is a given: you’re going to want to look good. Some do it for the Instagram selfies, others for the way it makes them feel while working out, but whatever your reasons, it’s fair to say workout wear has risen far past the pair-of-leggings-and-an-oversized-t-shirt kind of affair it once was. It’s now kit that will look just as great in your post-gym hangout as it did on the treadmill. With a number of high-end brands such as Lululemon, Sweaty Betty and Lucas Hugh upping the ante each season, it’s no surprise activewear is now a multi-million pound industry.

The solution? Ditch high-end for high-street. Not only do many stores such as H&M, M&S and F&F emulate the trends and styles of their much pricier counterparts, a lot are also surprisingly tech-savvy. Here are five ways to go gym luxe on a budget.
