The purple sports bra/tank fits you so beautifully and the color is gorgeous. Video idea: What about one going to a bra shop to get a professional bra fitting? I think it would be great content, especially because so many people are in an incorrect bra size - I know I was for YEARS!
Torrid!!!
I’m a similar body size/shape to Carrie, Torrid doesn’t carry anything in their bra selection that fits me, so it may be the same for Carrie.
Nordstrom has really good fitters and they have a variety of sizes in store and online! Whatever you do just don't go to Victoria's Secret or Soma!
Yeah I went to Victoria’s Secret to get sized (I’m an A cup and often have gapping) and the lady just stopped halfway through and said I “don’t have a bra size and should just go braless.” The trauma for my 18 year old self 💀so I would love to see how other stores with more inclusive sizes handle bra fittings.
@@Dev-ld4gi i dont know if you've heard of "pepper" but they're a bra company that make bras only for double A to C cups I think. They focus on no cup gapping and giving smaller chests bras that fit. Genuinely have never loved a bra more. Might be worth a shot for you
Hey hey! I’d love to see you try creating a capsule wardrobe based on the items you already have in your closet and maybe see the pros & cons of utilizing just 20-30 items for a month of so😄
I love Athleta! And you look amazing in those sets, so glad you picked some up! A couple tips, the Elation line is more meant for yoga so the material is softer and less compressive. They do offer different lines for more athletic compression, if that makes sense. Also a tip, the seasonal colors almost always end up on sale so if you wait you can get them for a discount. Another tip, they have extended lengths online including tall and petite! I am petite and they almost never have petite sizes in store, but they do online. And lastly, they are more expensive as a brand, BUT they are high quality and will last a long long time. Plus they are a 'B-corp', they invest in uplifting women through grants and they make efforts to be more environmentally conscious, like using recycled materials for clothing and shopping bags, etc., so ultimately you are choosing to put your dollars towards those efforts.
When you said “I did end up purchasing the black set.” I verbally responded YAYYYY! Because you looked so confident in it and I loved it on you!
Try Old Navy next! They have the best workout clothing in my opinion! It’s inexpensive and true to size (for my body, 2xl). They’re super cute and the quality is amazing!
Love the powersoft material
Old Navy is my favorite for leggings as well!
Athleta and old navy are nearly identical. They are the same company
Love their workout clothes
Athleta bras are better but Old Navy leggings are where it's at - the Athleta price tag isn't justified by an increase in quality. I do think the manufacturing practices are better though
If you want compressive leggings from Athleta, try the “ultimate” ones. The elations that you tried are more for yoga and low impact, the ultimates are for high impact.
Best
Leggings
Agreed. I love anything in that ultimate favbric
I work at Athleta! Love seeing your review! I wasn’t super impressed with the Alicia Keys line either, honestly almost everything in it is see through. I would say don’t be afraid to ask if they have your size in the back too, it’s laid out more like a boutique so they only keep so many sizes on the floor. So if someone was in a little before you and bought the size your looking for it won’t be out but might be in the back. It’s always worth a try.
I work at athleta and am happy you found some cute things! I agree- we NEED more matching sets. And the Alicia Keys collab items are a bit more pricey than the regular items… I guess you’re paying for the name! Loved this video!!!
So how do you actually say the name? Ath-let-ah or Ath-leet-ah?
@@MrOllie716 Ath-LET-a :)
I LOVE athleta. I literally have items 8+ years old that still look new. My stores carry a LOT in extended sizes and I love being able to try almost anything I want on. They do have great sales as well!
I purchased second hand athleta leggings from goodwill 3 years ago and they are still in good condition!
EXACTLY! I look at workout clothes as more of an investment, since I don't really follow any trends with them. I beat them up and I need them to be able to take it lol. I'll choose $100 leggings that will last 5+ years as opposed to $50 ones that rip after 3 years, every time.
Carrie, thank you for being brave for us and showing us the clothes you didn't like the fit of! I know it shouldn't be a big deal but I so appreciate someone pointing out but not making a big deal about cellulite and panty lines being visible! Makes me feel more okay about my own body
This is so helpful for looking for second-hand Athleta items online! I see their items at goodwill a lot too!
Thank God you bought the black outfit. 😂 As you were trying it on I was like Damn okay Carrie pop off you better have bought this set, so again happy you did. You look gorg as always! ❤
As a whole, we need to start accepting higher prices for quality clothing. We are all so used to such cheap things that we are shocked when we see normal retail prices. Quality over quantity, instead of tons of cheap clothes, let’s have fewer pieces that are actually going to last. I loved this video and I would love to see you check out some more stores like this!
Also I love the fitting room videos, it saves money and it’s better for the environment!
not everyone can “accept” higher prices what a privileged take lmao
@@rylieh13 right? not everyone can drop $90 for one pair of leggings
I typically purchase affordable clothing that is good quality and last for years. Price dosen't always correlate to quality.
@@rylieh13 I completely understand what you are saying and i don't have a ton of money to spend on clothes but i think what the OP was meaning is we should start choosing quality over quantity. We can have one or two good pair or multiple crappy pair from pretty horrible companies.
Athleta is my go-to brand for all aspects of life! They have great options for travel/work. The Brooklyn joggers are amazing and the Expedition dress is pretty much the only thing I’ll wear in the summer. I actually prefer their regular clothes over their workout clothes, but it’s all pretty awesome.
I posted a similar thing. LOVE their regular clothes, especially the Expedition dress. I have several shorts/pants from the Skyline range which I think might be discontinued. But the Skyline pants are my go to plane pants because they are impossible to wrinkle and comfy as heck.
Yes their pants/joggers/tights/shorts that I’ve tried have all been really nice, I love how many pockets everything has!
I've never been this early 😍 But I'm so excited. Also I love you Carrie, you and Sierra are my favorite and definitely my comfort TH-camrs ❤️
I use to work at Athleta and the conscious crop has always been my favorite piece of clothing! Its just so easy to wear for workouts and for going out!
And? Did you guys pronounce it as Ath-LET-a or Ath-LEET-a??? 🙂
@@karenfriebel7680 I also used to work there and it's Ath-LET-a!
I really love all the kinda two tone outfits you put together. Like how the tops and bottoms are two different shades of the same color. So cute!!
I would love to see you try lululemon if you’re down to try other workout brands! Their sizing can be a bit wonky but they just extended some items’ size range to be a bit more inclusive and the customer service with them is amazing (also I love that they do free hemming in store bc I’m like 2 feet tall)
I only wear lulu they move with me and stay up I love them
yesss! their materials are so impressive and flattering on everyone
@@m93733 I agree . They fit nicely and don’t show any dimples which I love . Best of all is the fact that they don’t roll down . I don’t spend money on clothing but for these leggings only I make an exception.
@Diane I’ve only recently worn them so I can’t describe a comparison this is interesting though
@Diane I find the new pieces definitely don't last as long as older ones (I have wunder unders from like 2015 still kicking around) but for free hemming and at least 5 years of wear with no issues I'm still happy to spend $100. Especially when $60-80 pairs from other "cheaper" brand only last like 5 washes for me.
As someone who is a yoga instructor and wears a lot of athleisure, I loved this! 💖 Perhaps you could try some more stores like this as well, like lululemon or Fabletics.
the black outfit was fire!!
Anyone interested in Athleta joggers……they are expensive but they are wonderful quality and they last FOREVER. I have pairs that are 4 years old that I have worn and washed weekly and still look good. Highly recommend!
I LIVE by Athleta's High-waisted Salutation Tights! Not too compressed, and not too loose! They hug my body in all the right places and flatters me so much. They're a perfect replacement for LuluLemon's Align Leggings for me because they ACTUALLY LAST in the wash, where the aligns from LuluLemon basically disinigrate and get itchy. Definitely try anything in the salutation fabric! They also offer long and petite online which is a must for me.
I am a loyal athleta customer! The sticker shock is definitely real, but these items last FOREVER! Even my lulu lemon leggings pill within a month or two. I’ve never had that issue with athleta. I also love that they have a variety of tops/swim that’s are for DD+. I’ve never found crop tops that fit me as well as athleta!
Tbh like half my wardrobe is from Athleta but I get most of it on eBay for a fraction of the price lol
That grey bra you tried on is my favorite style of bra at Athleta! I have so many colors of them. It’s like the only bra that fits me right and is super comfortable. I love that you can’t see the straps under clothes, so I can wear that bra under almost anything and be super comfortable!
Girl your arms and shoulders are looking shredded 👌🏻 we see those workout results and love a strong babe 💁🏻♀️
omggg love! i need the black flares 😻
That blue set was stunning!!!!!
That dusty blue/gray set definitely looked nice on you, but I loved hearing your explanation of why you didn't go for it. These videos are always so helpful.
As someone who is literally obsessed with Athleta I fully Stan this video! Love you Carrie! 💓
Athleta has the best return policy. I took a bad fall wearing my brand new leggings and I went to the store hoping they could mend them. They returned them and gave me a new pair no questions asked!
Looooved the purple top and fuchsia joggers combo! You looked great! And you nail color is fire too 💅
You should do Aerie and/or offline! They have SUCH cute stuff right now. Their longline bras are my FAVE
You look like you're so refreshed lately 🤍 always beautiful, but even more so lately!
That all-black outfit on you is 😍🥰❤️!
You look amazing in the orange set! I like the brown set on you also. The grey set is very nice too. I love active wear so much that I practically live in them! :)
Athleta is so worth the price! I literally wear mine every day and they hold up great.
it’s funny because i watched last week’s vlog where you mention going to Athleta and then I happen to pass one on Saturday and had an AMAZING experience. I’m in CT- I saw a lot of different sizes, even up to 3XL in the store. The sales person was also a plus size gal and she was so helpful. I told her I was super overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start and told her I’m currently between an XL and L in my fabletics leggings. She helped me pick out stuff that was high compression and fit for my DDD chest and I walked out of there with 2 things and 2 others ordered. Definitely was sick with the price but I’m so impressed by the quality and feel. She also swore their leggings don’t pill, so we’ll see but I got that same light grey blue leggings in the 7/8 and was shocked how it WASN’T see through with my black underwear. I think the most surprisingly thing with their stuff was I ended up sizing down a lot? I think the material is just so soft and flexible that sizing down helps it be more compressed vs tight. I definitely want to look for that purple bra tank you tried on here. also you definitely need to try their yoga shorts!
I love Athleta. At this point I’ve stopped shopping at stores that don’t offer tall/long lengths for pants. Athleta has such a good variety and all are offered in a long. Tall girl approved!! I have a few things from there and all have held up so nicely after washing and wearing many times.
The black set looked so good on you!
OMG the light purple tank bra thing was MADE FOR YOU!!! you have to go back and get it!!
Carrie, first off, you look absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Thank you so much for doing the Athleta review; I’ve been waiting for this !! Athleta are new to us here 🇨🇦 to order online as well with 2 flagship stores. I’ve been curious about having to “cold” order from them without “knowing” what their products are like. I have only a few good quality workout gear (yoga, hiking) and I prefer the compression or thicker material as I feel good and secure in those types of items (GF Collective and Lululemon Invigorate). Always happy to see you’ve posted. Be well and safe. 🤗
I love my Athleta joggers and I keep an eye out to buy them second hand. Great quality!
I Love ATHLETA. I wear their pants and hoodies for work. They are my favorite. Slightly expensive, but AMAZING quality. You get what you pay for!! 🖤🖤🖤
I used to work at that Athleta!!! Glad you found some things you liked!
I love athleta!! My favorite workout gear, it’s pricey but most things will end up on sale. They also always have sales on top of their sale items
I’m a pretty solid size 3x/26 and I love Athleta so much!
Your outfit with the white tank and jeans is so cute
Ok I just fell down a rabbit hole of Carrie videos and can I just say your hair looks fucking amazing in every single video! GOALS!!!
Idk how you feel about Costco, but I love their “fitness” pants! Leggings, yoga pants (I’m old), joggers. I have a super long torso and they are all high waisted ted on me.
I'd love to see you compare athleticwear from Old Navy to Athleta since they're sister companies. I love Old Navy's athleisure and have been tempted to try Athleta but the sticker shock has been holding me back.
Great video! I like workout gear with cotton and spandex. I've only found that with Athletic Works brand from Walmart. These really take a beating and wash well. They're soft and a little thicker. Come in black, gray and navy. Cost $16 (!)
Best deal around. Wide leg, straight leg and legging styles. Regular and plus sizes and petites. I only wish they came in more colors.
Yes please lululemon !! I'm about your size and have never purchased from them! I'd love to know how they stack up.
The elation ultra high rise leggings from Athleta are my all time favorites- can’t recommend them enough!
That black set looked so good on you. 🖤
Unrelated but I love your shoes in the background! Pretty baby pink dunks I think?
I love Athleta. They also offer short and long sizes which might help with wanting higher wasted.
I love athleta!! If you want high waisted the ultra high rise elation tight are my favorite!! Please try lululemon!!!
Definitely depends on the stores, for getting the extended sizes, the stores I go to in Atlanta have most items in stock up to 3x, and plus size mannequins!
Carrie!! Every single video you just look soooo stunning! You’re glowing!
One of my favorite things about Athleta is that they have tall sizes online. Very few athletic companies do that
Girl!!!! You need to try the lululemon power pivot tank!!! They are my HOLY GRAIL tank top/bra
THE BLACK SET !!!!!!!!
honestly, all of those items were super cute on you. i know they were expensive, but they are so cute on you. thanks for doing this video, i have always wondered about this store. i say you keep the items, even though they were a little pricey.
Athleta is some of my favorite brands!! The stores i go to normally have a great range of sizing!
Athleta regularly has great sales! I usually keep an eye on items I like and only purchase when the price goes down
Thanks for always being so body positive. It helps!
Thanks for the honesty I would not feel comfortable in any of those and definitely not in my budget . Old navy has great stuff
Omg the dusty grey set ♡♡♡
Carrie. The video started and I legit gasped at your beauty 🔥😍🤍
Athleta has my favorite swimsuits ever! Love this vid
Just had a mini breakdown (tears were shed) because my shower wasn’t draining. Immediately was like DID CARRIE UPLOAD ANYTHING PLS LORD
*goes and buys the black outfit with the flare pants immediately* love your vids thanks Carrie!
the flared pants are sooo cute🥰
You should 100% go back and get that lilac top! It would be super cute as a top in the summer with shorts or skirts and it would go with so many other colours for leggings that you probably already own!!
The purple tank looked so good on you!
That white tank you’re wearing looks sooo good on you!
Literally all of my friends own the Aurora rib crop bc it is so cute, comfy, and comes in so many colors!! Loved this video and you ❤️
I love the salutation stash pocket leggings. I swear by them.
I’d love to see you try Lululemon next! I love your content by the way - your channel is so positive and I love it!
I feel like I gotta step up and preach the quality of the triumph joggers in particular, I own the Triumph and Balance from Athleta and I have, quite literally, been living in the Triumph joggers every single day since November. Many washes later they are just about the most comfortable pants/joggers I own, no pilling despite chub rub, etc. They ran large for me (and stretched out a bit but since I WFH they are the best comfort wise!)
Love your makeup today!
i would love to see lululemon! especially because these athleta prices were pretty similar to lulu's and i'd love to hear a comparison of the quality
I know you said you felt bad spending so much but that black top and leggings set made you look like a million bucks! It was SO cute on you as an outfit OR workout situation and I was freaking out that you might not end up buying it! You did good❣️🙂
I love Athleta but agree - can be expensive! The sale rack is my happy place. Also, if you shop at Old Navy and/or Gap, you can accrue savings that can be applied there! 😊
Athleta is the best and awesome quality. They are also very generous in sizing, I actually usually wear a L and am a 16. The elation tight is their lowest compression for yoga. You need to go back and try some other items and consider sizing down!
The one before the last one looks amazing on you!
I’m obsessed with Athleta, Gap and Old navy! They are the only places I buy my clothes.
Old Navy, Gap and Athleta are all sister stores! So if you feel like Athleta is pricey I definitely say try Old Navy’s active line! A lot of people love it.
You look so incredible!!! You are always beautiful but I don’t know what it is in this video but you just look so amazing.
I’m so excited! I’ve wanted to try this brand and was unsure and now I’m not! You’re the best Carrie!
Love the warm tones on you! 💕
I absolutely love Athleta. I only really shop their sales but it's the best quality workout wear i have found and the companies morals are amazing!
I loved the outfits and the way you colored matched them was amazing. I found a orange bike shorts on walmart ,they were sold out in day in my sizes. I also found peach sports bra and tanks at target.
You should try TSL Collection. Love what they stand for & very inclusive!
Okay, but high neck stuff looks so good on Carrie????
I have the Aurora crop top in 2 colors… love it! Athleta is more expensive, but it’s a competitor of Lululemon and I’d say the quality is on par with them as well (if not better)
Omg I haven’t watched yet but I love Athleta!! Thred up also carries a lot of their items!
Can you do targets plus size line?
Hi I love your videos and your TH-cam has really helped me out these past year and months, I love your content. I don’t usually comment but love watching your denim try-on videos and wondered if you’ve tried Hollister jeans? I made a purchase and love the quality and shape as I’m very curvy and never find jeans to fit. They have a pretty good curvy line and the size chart even has the seperate curvy size chart, I would love to see your impressions of the brand 🥰 they also sell them on ASOS and other sites too
Try a Lane Bryant in store or online clothing haul or try on video! They have extended sizing since it’s a plus size Womens retail store. And they have different styles including an active wear line you could try also called Livi active.
