I love a good pair of cutout leggings! I have a few from different brands, but this pair has got to be favorite — aaand this is actually the first time I’ve every tried them {via Nordstrom}! They’re so flattering!

I personally think that a cute activewear outfit can make {not break} your gym experience.  It helps when you look good while your booty is burning!  When I purchase leggings, I typically take into consideration: waistband height, length, fabric, visibility {see through leggings are the worst}, and delicacy.  I can’t have any workout leggings that are too delicate, because I’ll rip them on a weight or squat rack, for example.  These Teeki leggings from Nordstrom are the perfect ones because they’re flattering, comfortable, opaque — I definitely am going to get a few more pairs in some of the fun designs available!
