Beyond Yoga Velvet Workout Pants

I am loving velvet this season. Not sure if it is the major influence of the 90s or the holiday feel, but I love everything and anything velvet — especially when it is unexpected. So when I found velvet workout pants, I knew that I needed them. And not just normal velvet but CRINKLED PINK velvet workout pants.

I saw them folded on the table like this, but I knew immediately that I needed them. I love how they twinkle with the light — and just glow and are so happy.

Beyond Yoga made these velvet high waisted midi leggings. The fit is also perfection — high waisted and snug. I only wear high waisted workout pants, so it was a relief to find that not only the fabric was what I wanted, but the fit, too.

I love oh so much.

I am sure I look a little odd in my whole fitness ensemble in Central Park….but I don’t care.

I love them because they are not naturally what you think of workout gear. Although they are intended for low impact wear, I found that running in them was fine. That said, I think they are best for yoga, pilates, and not spinning or high impact cardio. Regardless, I can’t wait to wear them for my workouts and now I am obsessed with finding crushed velvet leggings for everyday wear.

They look good on anyone, promise. They even look good when on the floor.

I loved them so much that I just bought these ones, too. They bring JOY in to my life. Truly. Get a pair, and you, too, will smile when you run. Happy weekend!
