MPG Clothing

Dancer-inspired with athletes in mind, MPG’s women’s line is functional, flattering and fashionable. Ideal for yoga, Pilates and running around town, the wide leg and adjustable drawcords of the Swing pant ($89) let you go for a full or cropped look. Throw on the softshell Strike jacket ($230) for water-resistance, a fuzzy fleece lining and that extra length for booty coverage on chilly days. www.mpgsport.com  

Sherpani Blaze

Creators of great women’s backpacks and bags—all lined with fun flower designs—Sherpani now offers a new duffle-style/gym bag called the Blaze. With removable straps and back straps that can be tucked away, this bag can be used as a backpack or duffel. You choose. The main compartment is roomy enough to store gym clothes, shoes, toiletries. There are also places and pockets to store your keys, cell phone and water bottle. $64.95, www.sherpani.us

Tarma Designs Jewelry

Be conscious and chic at the same time in some stylish, outdoor-inspired recycled stainless steel jewelry from Tarma Designs. Whether it’s an Om symbol or sun salutation for yogis, a leaf or cairn for nature lovers, or an icon of a hiker or snowboarder for outdoor enthusiasts, there’s a design for you. Available in pendants, earrings, wristbands, even bottle openers. $25-$30, www.tarmadesigns.com

Freestyle Betty Shark X Watch

Women need sports watches, too, just not big, clunky ones. The Betty Shark X is anything but. This hip little timekeeper is waterproof to 100 meters, with luminous hands and markers for reading in the dark. Comes in black or blue. $55, www.freestyleusa.com
