The Nike Running store at Fashion Island has a selection that runs the color wheel. Our current favorite: the Nike Free TR 5 Flyknit Women’s Training Shoe in Bright Citrus/ Pink Pow ($130). This shoe ups the ante with a new, lightweight fit that adapts to the shape of your foot, giving you maximum flexibility and support.

Designed with an open neckline and strappy back, this bra gives you plenty of room to flow, twist and sweat your way through yoga class. You can’t go wrong with the standard black bra, but the Blue Sapphire is a speckled print we have our eyes on this year.

Dri-FIT fabric wicks sweat to keep you comfortable while the generous cut reduces chafing as you move. The Cool Grey shade will pair effortlessly with all your other workout pieces.
