After giving up yoga in my teens due to my beloved teacher moving away, I only recently found myself a new teacher and started practicing yoga again. Yoga is a lot trickier than it looks; there's the position holding and the controlled breathing, not to mention the tough decision of picking out stylish yoga fashion! I decided I needed to expand my small collection of yoga clothes, which consists of: a boring but breathable tee, some old leggings, and a pair of ill-fitting tracksuit bottoms.
If you are a yoga fanatic and want to widen your yogic wardrobe then look no further. Here you will find the most fashionable and practical garments to wear to practice yoga in; so you'll be able to stop worrying about exposing your derrière in "downward dog" and focus more on your pranayama breathing techniques.
Namaste!
