Hot Shopping: Work It Out

Affordable and stylish workout gear from Joseph Mimran

Joseph Mimran has already taken over the fashion world. Up next: the fitness market, thanks to the recent launch of Jogi, a health-and-wellness accessories line. Jump ropes, resistance bands, weights and toning balls are sure to be any fashionista’s friend. Purchase cardio equipment at Real Canadian Superstore and workout-friendly apparel at Joe Fresh.—Jennifer Patterson

Hot Shopping: Cool Kids

Girls are on-trend with activewear from Ivivva Athletica

The brains behind Vancouver success story Lululemon Athletica appear to have done it again with Ivivva Athletica and their dance-inspired clothing for active girls. This fresh collection is made up of eye-catching printed hoodies and too-cool-for-school tights—a fresh, more youthful take on the yoga pants that first made Lululemon famous.—Jennifer Patterson

Hot Shopping: Lululemon

This Canada-inspired hoodie is a hot-ticket item from Lululemon

In just one decade, the local Lululemon has expanded from a single shop in Kitsilano to countless stores around the world. It claims to sell “yoga-inspired athletic apparel,” but women of all shapes and sizes know what it really sells: yoga pants that make butts look great. Founded by Chip Wilson of Westbeach Snowboard fame, the company also produces hoodies, gear bags, yoga mats and other apparel designed to make the wearer look and feel good while working out. A new line of Cheer Gear (pictured) sports the national colours of Sweden, Germany, the US and Canada.—Sheri Radford
