Is anyone as tired as I am of spending $100 on a pair of workout pants? I workout 6 days a week, that’s a lot of sweat. My workout clothes need to be power houses. But spending $100 on a pair of pants? $60 on a tank. Enough already.
It was perfect timing actually when I was approached by the team at Ellie, a new subscription service for athletic apparel. Think of it like Birchbox, but for workout gear. They asked me to review their product and try out their service. I was a little skeptical at first because honestly, Lululemon and Nike have always been my go-to brands and the few times I’ve tried items from other labels they haven’t lived up to expectation. I said I’d give it a try.
Here’s how it works:
1. Complete a short profile on your workout preferences, style, color, and size selections.
2. You can select items a la carte OR sign up for the Fit Fashionista Club.
The Fit Fashionista Club works like Birchbox. A stylist will select a top and bottom based on your profile. Ellie also comes with the ability to select the items based on that month’s offerings yourself. You even have the flexibility to choose 2 tops or 2 bottoms or a top and a bottom. It’s up to you. After the 7thof the month, a stylist will choose a custom surprise box for you. If you are unhappy with your product for any reason returns are free. Actually shipping both ways is FREE. yea for Ellie. And if you are thinking, “what if I don’t want new clothes EVERY month?” They’ve thought of that too, just change your preferences by the 7th of the month. Doesn’t this sound GREAT? I thought so too! I mean how can you beat $49.95/month for 2 pieces of workout wear? I just received my first package from the February Lookbook. Can’t wait to test them out!
Take a peek at the March Lookbook. Each month will have different items to choose from. Fit Fashionista Members get early preview and selection to be sure and receive their favorites!
