What better way to kick off the New Year, and perhaps a few of your resolutions, than by stepping into a chic, yet practical workout set? If you’re anything like us, however, working out and workout attire go hand-in-hand. Some even say that motivation is sparked when wearing the best workout clothes the market has to offer. That being said, the world of fitness may seem daunting with new fads popping up on the daily, from cult favorites like bootcamps and spin classes to more boutique fitness classes like dance and barre.

But once you’ve decided on your workout du jour, the hard part is over; you’ve booked the class and now the fun part begins—getting dressed. There is no shortage of options either, from legacy brands like Nike and Adidas to more emerging activewear labels like Girlfriend Collective.

For the trendy pilates class, pair a matching bra and bike shorts like this one from Outdoor Voices, and don't forget your grip socks. Sweat-resistant fabrics and a coordinating track jacket are perfect for HIIT classes like spin and bootcamps when the heart is really pumping. Heading out for a run or a walk? A set from Tory Sport is a chic choice. When finding your zen at yoga, Alo Yoga's matching bra and leggings are as comfortable as they are non-constrictive, ideal for hitting those downward dogs and cobras. At the barre, choose a cap sleeve sports bra by Live The Process and a pair of slouchy socks from Skims. Hit the courts in Girlfriend Collective's hunter green tennis skirt and for après play, store your racket in an embroidered tennis tote by Brother Vellies. Since ski season is in full swing, hit the slopes in style courtesy of Khaite, Jetset, and Apparis. And finally, after all of your hard work, rest and recover with the help of essential oils and a cozy loungewear set by Éterne

Whatever your workout of choice may be, here is Vogue's guide to the best workout clothes to shop now.

The pilates movement isn't going anywhere anytime soon, no matter if you choose to practice on a megaformer, traditional Cadillac, or on the mat. Dress appropriately in a matching powder blue set by Outdoor Voices and make sure not to forget your grip socks like these from Pointe Studio. Bala's bars and bangles offer extra resistance, while a Hydro Flask will keep you nice and hydrated.

When heading out for a run or a walk, a matching set from Tory Sport is a chic choice. Stylish additions include On Cloud's cult-classic sneakers and Stanley's thirst quenching tumbler. Keep track of every step courtesy of the Oura Ring.

When finding your zen at yoga, Alo Yoga's matching bra and leggings in the color plumb are as comfortable as they are non-constrictive, ideal for hitting those downward dogs and cobras. Their yoga mat and sweat resistant towel in smoky quartz are equally as necessary. For tired post-class muscles, ease any tension with the Theragun Mini.

A sweat-resistant set and a coordinating track jacket from Adidas by Stella McCartney are perfect for HIIT classes like spin and bootcamps when the heart is really pumping. Neon Nike sneakers and a matching pair of Socksss offer the perfect amount of support and style when hitting the treadmill.

At the barre, channel your inner ballerina in this set by Live The Process and a pair of slouchy socks from Skims. Make sure to tote equipment from Gaiam and Lululemon, too.

Hit the courts in Girlfriend Collective's hunter green tennis skirt and for après play, store your racket in an embellished tennis tote by Brother Vellies. Keep warm courtesy of Tory Sport's classic chevron sweater and shield any unwanted rays with a cap from Sporty & Rich. A Tretorn sneaker is never not in style.

Since ski season is in full swing, hit the slopes in style, starting off strong with Banana Republic's quilted puffer jacket, Khaite's ‘Millen’ top, and ski pants from Jetset. Also from Khaite, their ‘Culver’ shearling-lined booties help master the art of aprés ski style. Cozy accessories from La Double J and Apparis are also hard to resist, whether you plan on conquering the mountain or not.

After all of your hard work, rest and recover with the help of sensuous essential oils from Public Goods and a cozy loungewear set from Éterne. Slipping into a pair of shearling-lined Birkenstocks never hurts, either. Give yourself an at-home massage thanks to Lululemon's foam rolling set.
