How Lumana’s Activewear Will Make You Rethink How You Workout 

Leggings have always been beloved by women, but with the onset of Covid, there seemed to be a worldwide shift in which leggings stopped becoming a casual garb and suddenly became a token piece of every lady’s wardrobe. Why?

If I were to conjecture, it’s because most women are privy to comfort over business attire. So, not surprisingly, when Covid reared its ugly head and many women were forced to work from home, the high heels and skirts were quickly eradicated to the back of the closet and replaced with leisurewear. This was a welcome change as leggings are super comfortable, don’t wrinkle, don’t require dry-cleaning, and can be worn in a variety of situations.

And while you would think that, as Covid waned and people started frequenting restaurants, malls, and delving back into the workplace, the days of rocking leisurewear would become null-and-void. And yet, it's 2022 and there seems to be no stopping the legging craze. This should be met with a huge sigh of relief from all the ladies out there because - let's face it - leggings and athleticwear in general - are just plain practical.

Sure, there are situations in which comfy-wear isn’t exactly appropriate. Say, a wedding or baptism for example. But with all of the new brands, cuts, and styles out there, you certainly can use that main staple in your closet to dress up. Here are a few fashion trends that are growing exceedingly popular with *gasp* leggings. Yes! They really can be more than simply workout gear or a lounging-around-the-house item.

Back In Black

While leggings with prints can be fun (and perfectly fine for the right occasion), you really want to make sure you have at least one or two all-black leggings. Why? Because you can accessorize them with just about anything and they look significantly more sleek and professional than pants with cats all over them.

Add a fun blouse, a cute jacket, a long sweater, or a colorful poncho to accentuate your bottoms. The purpose is to have the focus on the top part so that the black leggings simply add to the sleekness of the outfit (as shown below).

These Boots Are Made For Walking

As any woman knows, the shoes make the outfit. It used to be that leggings were strictly used for sport activities or around-the-house comfort which meant they would usually be paired with flip-flops or sneakers. Don’t get us wrong - those are perfectly acceptable footwear for those particular situations, but a great pair of shoes can really dress up a pair of typical leggings. Trendy boots (both ankle cut and knee-high) add a bit of personality and swag, whereas high heels really help elongate your legs.

Work Out, Then Errands, Then Girl’s Happy Hour… Oh My!

Whether you are a SAHM, a college student, or a career woman, there is no denying that 24 hours just isn’t enough time in our day to accomplish all that we need to while also assembling new outfits for every daily event. Assuming you are rocking moisture-wicking, odor-controlled leggings, you can conveniently jump from activity to activity without the need for a wardrobe change. Remember: It’s 2022 which means leggings aren’t viewed anymore as gear for women “that have just given up.” First of all, the majority of men find a woman in leggings incredibly sexy. And even if they didn’t, who cares?! Keep a crop sweatshirt, leather jacket, or coverup in your car, and just throw it over your outfit once you’ve left the gym. There is nothing sexier than a woman who is confident with her looks and doesn’t care what others think of her.

Showing Off Them Ankles

As a general rule, when you are in any professional setting, baring too much skin is viewed as tasteless. However, we would argue that capri-style leggings are fresh, fashionable, and a great alternative for those who live in hot/humid climates and prefer more air circulation.

And while capri-style leggings are a great option for the gym when you are getting all sweat and hot, don’t discredit their value on the streets. These types of leggings can be the absolute perfect touch to any outfit, provided you accessorize it correctly.

In fact, now that summer is right around the corner, now is the perfect time to start adorning your favorite capris with heels and a loose top for the perfect summery-vibe that is the perfect combination of “free spirit” and “I do my own thing.”

Why You NEED a Pair of Lumana Leggings In Your Wardrobe

So, we’ve shown you ample proof why leggings aren’t just a Covid thing, but something that will probably be a staple for years to come. Now that we've convinced you of their value, your next question probably is, “But how do I choose the right brand and style for my needs?”

The honest answer is that it really depends on what you are looking for. Lumana’s collection of athleticwear (leggings, shorts, and skirts) were designed by a team of fashion-savvy young women who knew that most leggings are created equal. And we wanted to stand out from the abundance of typical leggings at your disposal.

Yes, our goal was to create incredibly flattering leisurewear with fun colors and soft materials that make you feel special every time you try a piece on. But that wasn’t enough for us.

Why? Because we also understand that a woman shouldn’t just look great; she has to feel great too. And with the multitude of bodily functions we have to face on a daily basis (incontinence, discharge, periods, vaginal sweating and odor), we wanted to provide bottoms that were suited for all the demands women face on a day-to-day basis.

Thus, came the birthchid of Lumana - a woman-run company that understands what it's like to deal with embarrassing leakage - whether doing rigorous activities or mundane chores around the house. But we also made sure not to sacrifice attractiveness for convenience.

So, we created a line of athletic leisurewear that looks good, feels good, and helps minimize any vaginal discharge that may occur because, ya know, you’re a female and that sort of thing is bound to happen.

All of our bottom pieces are designed with built-in padding that absorbs blood, urine, sweat, and incontinence. This means that you can jump, run, play sports, play with your kids, or go out for drinks without the worry of a “down there” mishap.

Composed of a spandex nylon hybrid, these leggings are lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking so you can go from the gym to lunch without feeling like everyone knows you just came from the gym.

Each piece promises a flattering cut that accentuates your curves while the high-waist tucks in anything you don’t want showing.

Whether you prefer classic black or want to mix things up with fun patterns, we have leggings for all women. And, because the built-in padding holds so much liquid, you can utilize this athletic gear with or without a tampon.

Whether dressing up or dressing down, these bottoms are a must for every woman on-the-go and once you’ve experienced how convenient and attractive they are, we promise you’ll come back for more.
