Black yoga pants and a coordinating sports bra, T-shirt optional, is a tried and true workout look — but let's face it, it can get boring. When we're sick of looking at the same outfit in the gym wall mirror week after week, we like to turn to celebs for a bit of fitness fashion inspiration. More often than not, celebrity athleisure looks do not disappoint.
Even on the way to or from a workout, celebs manage to serve up the kind of fashion-forward gym attire that lives rent-free in our heads. From Hailey Bieber's iconic layered 'fits that play up oversized outerwear and brightly colored bike shorts to the flare leggings sweeping celebrity closets, these are 13 of our favorite celebrity athleisure looks. Scroll on and say goodbye to the same ol', same ol' gym outfit in favor of something bright, bold, and still perfectly functional for your sweat sesh.
If we could snap our fingers and wake up with a single celebrity's athleisure wardrobe, we would choose Lori Harvey's vast collection of practical, but polished workout 'fits in an instant. Our girl knows her way around designer accessories as well as fitness gear trends as shown by this look that combines flare leggings — a.k.a. yoga pants — with a waist-snatching sweatshirt, designer slides, and a delicious pastel mini bag.Shop Similar: Versace Logomania Fuzzy Open-Toe Slippers, $475, and Jacquemus Le Petit Bambino Leather Top Handle Bag, $470.
No shade if you don't remember the early days of the so-called baby tee — the crop top's fitted predecessor — because next-gen influencers like Addison Rae are ensuring their iteration takes over athleisure. The baby jersey is campy, not at all oriented for team sports, and a fun, flirtatious addition to any workout wardrobe. We recommend pairing with loose shorts and crew socks for a vintage jock vibe.Shop Similar: Stroll-Away Crop Top, $65 (Originally $75).

Katie Holmes doesn't just strut New York City sidewalks in edgy looks during Fashion Week. Her day-to-day athleisure is consistently on point. Take, for example, this look under consideration. Her bright bike shorts are balanced by her lightweight oversized button-down and creamy low-tops. But the best part of this celebrity athleisure look is, hands down, the half-tuck styling on the oversized top. We 10 out of 10 recommend.Shop Similar: Frank & Eileen Mackenzie Exaggerated Button-Up Shirt, $298, and Beyond Yoga Spacedye Keep Pace Biker Shorts in Red Flower Heather, $68.

We don't always support a cut-off muscle T-shirt, but when we do it's because Lucy Hale is wearing one to the gym. To offset the slightly grunge vibe, pair a similarly cropped muscle tee with a warm shade of leggings in dusty rose or terracotta, and keeping the tee in question vibrant in a crisp shade of white for a classic feel.Shop Similar: SKIMS Boyfriend Tank Top, $36

Are we suggesting you wear platform heels on the way to the gym? No we are not, but we do think Ashley Graham's recent look featuring an extra-oversized sweater is a delicious street-style look that's only a footwear swap away from being athleisure goals. We'd go for sneakers and bike shorts to complete the look for spring, or leggings on a chilly day.Shop Similar: Anine Bing Mike Cable-Knit Sweater, $400.

Velour tracksuits are a blast from the past, but this season's soft and fuzzy staples are an upgrade from your old Juicy Couture. Sets like Rita Ora's pull in modern silhouettes like cropped tops and oversized bottoms. To give a velour gym outfit your own fresh take, we also recommend playing with contrasting colors in muted color palettes and adding a statement sneaker (as long as it passes workout muster).Shop Similar: Niyama Sol Velour Long Sleeve Crop Top, $68, and Madewell Velour Corduroy Relaxed Sweatpants, $60 (Originally $110).

While pastels are everywhere during spring, they're rarely seen as often at the gym as, say, your fave bottomless mimosa brunch spot. Bring a little color into your workout wardrobe by taking a page from Alessandra Ambrosio's style guide and pairing adjacent — but not matching! — shades of pale purple, blue, or green.Shop Similar: GlowMode FeatherFit™ Low Impact 7/8 Leggings in Lilac Purple, $23, and rag & bone Addison Baseball Cap in Lilac, $115.

Sofia Vergara gave a masterclass in low-key athleisure styling with her wide-leg flare Nike sweatpants and coordinating loose-fitting top.Shop Similar: Halara Crossover High Waisted Back Pocket Super Flare Leggings in Cinnabar, $30.

Give your go-to gym attire a bit of prep school pep by incorporating a crewneck sweatshirt in a fresh way.
