5 Yoga Looks That Effortlessly Flow From Your Mat To Your Virtual Happy Hour

By Suzanne McKenzie

Yoga lovers know that the only thing better than a sweaty flow is following it up with a cheers and happy hour sesh with your besties. There's just something about sharing a cold glass of rosé or a couple of margs with the people you love that makes all the work you just did in class hit so much harder.

Just because I can't pop by my favorite bar right now doesn't mean I'm about to say goodbye to the ritual of the after-class drink with friends. Enter: the virtual happy hour, the post-work (or in my case, post-workout) gathering dedicated to catching up with the people I care about, even if it's through a screen.

In the spirit of finding outfits versatile enough for everyone's two fave activities, Bustle partnered with Athleta to source yoga looks that'll slay just as hard at virtual happy hour as they do on the mat.

Read on to pick the happy hour that's on your calendar, find a look that flows from Savasana into social time, then pour yourself that well-deserved drink.

Catching Up With Your Childhood Besties

There's nobody who makes you feel more at ease than the people you grew up with. For this happy hour, suit up in something that'll let you move during yoga, then allow you to sit back, relax, and talk about the old days for who knows how long.

This crop and capri set is made from buttery soft Powervita™ fabric, which gives your practice the kind of sweat-wicking, quick-drying support that'll help you finally nail that forearm stand. Throw on an organic cotton zip hoodie post-class, grab your camera and a cozy blanket, and settle in to live it up with the day ones.

Date Night With Your S.O.

Just because you may not be able to stroll hand-in-hand with your beloved at the present moment doesn't mean your date night should feel any less romantic.

Set the mood by pairing a supportive longline bra and a sleek capri with an unpinchable multi-layer waistband that ensures you can focus on your practice with zero distractions. After class, light a candle for ~ambiance~ and complete your modern silhouette with gold hoops and a cropped earth tone parachute jacket draped over your shoulders.

Game Night With The Fam

Whether your family game night consists of just you and your parents, or it includes cousins you didn't even know you had, this outfit will keep you confident and comfortable all the way from class to competition.

These supportive tights don’t limit your range of motion and the mesh ventilation means breathability no matter how much of a sweat you work up. Top off the look with your go-to sports bra, and then after class throw on a coordinated tie-back sweatshirt, statement socks, and a casual beanie to hide any sign of that telltale yoga hair.

Team Happy Hour With Coworkers

If you're lucky enough to be tight with your coworkers, a post-yoga catchup can pose a bit of a dilemma; you want to dress to sweat, but also keep your look work appropriate.

These Powervita™ joggers could almost pass as work pants, and a neutral longline bra can easily be layered with a comfy long sleeve top with a twist detail so chic your boss will never know you were in Savasana five minutes ago. Add some glasses for a touch of professionalism, and you're good to go.

Wine With The Ladies

Whether you're gathered at your favorite wine bar or just gathered around your laptops, sharing a drink and getting into it with your best gals is as good of a reason as any to dress to the nines.

Suit up in a supernova-patterned crop and capri for your yoga sesh, and keep it on for happy hour to impress your friends with this out-of-this-world look. The Powervita™ fabric will keep you supported all flow long, and the unique pattern will have your friends begging you to tell them where they can score a matching set.
