So come the new year, we’ll be incorporating velvet into our sweat sesh gear. And we’re calling it right now: Velvet activewear will be 2019’s biggest fitness trend. Ever since we saw Kim Kardashian in a pair of velvet leggings in July, we’ve been obsessed. In fact, we’ve been waiting for a good excuse to add a pair to our wardrobes. So we’re taking #NewYearNewMe very seriously and giving our sporty style a few luxe additions, including these Nordstrom stripe velvet leggings and this Beyond Yoga lavish velvet sports bra. More stylish than practical? Maybe. But trust us when we say, we will be wearing these babies all year long — whether it’s to the gym or just shopping around town.
