I've just done an interview for 'shop til you drop' magazine on behalf of Sportsgirl & as a PR exercise for our activewear range. I was asked to compile my list of activewear motivation must haves / dos. What is my routine around what I wear when I'm running around. My article is going to be in next month - January 9th issue to be precise (& of course I will blog it!) but here's a sneak peak before I go to press.....

How to make your active wear motivate you for exercise…

• I must have co-ordinating tops & bottoms. I just don't feel right mismatching & when you exercise you have got to feel right, so I buy sets.
• & I wear 2 sports bras!! Always.
• I lay out my exercise outfit the night before so I just have to jump into it in the morning & run out of the door.
• I like bright colours for outdoors, for safety, as well as looking super hot.
• I wear the same pieces for yoga, pilates, running, spin, strength training, whatever the exercise I feel comfortable in leggings, bras & an active top/tank & that's my style.
• It's so important to keep hydrated with all the exercise I do, so I drink lots of water, I carry my new Sportsgirl water bottle with me everywhere now.
• I take my own pink yoga mat to my class, the colour keeps me zen.
• Straight after training everything goes into the washing machine.
• When I want to run a marathon personal best I make a super power cape!!!
