Okay, okay, okay…….I love posting about my favorite dresses and the perfect statement jewelry for the season, etc. However, 89% of the time during the week, I am in my “mom uniform” or activewear . Today on CCG, I share with you the best activewear for moms! This usually consists of yoga pants or leggings, cute cotton tops, sweatshirts and sneakers. I top that look off with a ponytail and gasp….no make up! So, I think it’s about time to give some love for the clothing that takes up 1/2 of my wardrobe and show that even wearing activewear, which is super comfy by the way, can also be cute!
Having four kids, and dealing with the hectic mornings of getting ready for school, driving them to different schools and then running errands, I need to wear something comfortable without looking like I just rolled out of bed (I will admit that there have been times I quite literally look like I have rolled out of bed, but let’s save that for another post). Sure, I have plenty of comfy dresses that I definitely wear during the week. However, I have learned to embrace the chaos that is motherhood and with that comes pants with an elastic waistband.

Activewear is not only a staple in my wardrobe, but something I reach for day in and day out whether it be to lounge around in or talk a walk with the kids. Since my surgery, I also wear cute leggings and tops to work to teach in now that tights and leotards are a tad harder to get on. The line I am wearing here, MPG Sport, caters to ballerinas as well as sports enthusiasts which is something I really love. It’s the best activewear for moms too! They are also extremely reasonable in price which is a huge plus. Lululemon also takes up a massive presence in my closet as well as pieces by Stella McCartney and Athleta. I am also starting to collect Sweaty Betty pieces.
What are some of your favorite activewear brands to wear?

I just binge watched Renovation Aloha and now I NEED another trip to Hawaii. It doesn’t look like it’s in the cards for us this year with Emma going to Boston for singing (we are tagging along for the last week). Buuuutttt, if we were to go……Which is your favorite and why? Big Island or Kauai? We’ve already been to Oahu and Maui and I love each of them for different reasons. PS, I painted all my doors in the house blue on a whim and I think I love them 💙 ...
