the stylebook gift guide: for the fitness buff
While some people wait until January 1st to kick off fitness goals, there are folks who keep up the momentum year-round. Whether your special someone enjoys outdoor runs or sweating through yoga, these gifts are guaranteed to inspire healthy living through 2015.
1. Sundry Leggings, Prices vary at The Shoe Hive
The Shoe Hive has waxed poetic about its line of luxury loungewear by made-in-America line Sundry. But we can attest to the clothing’s awesomeness. Most recently, they received a shipment of super soft yoga leggings in a variety of shapes, colors and prints. Warm enough on a super cold winter day but also ideal for a sweaty yoga class, your fitness-focused friend will put these to good use.

4. Leighelena Cuffs, $118 at Bellacara
We know that it isn’t always possible to pull a Taylor Swift and leave the gym looking 100% made up and outfitted. But a few well-chosen accessories can go a long way to making a from-the-gym look worthy of being worn beyond the gym. A cuff like this one from Bellacara takes an outfit from basic to intentional in seconds and will quickly become a favorite for the fitness buff in your life.
5. Texting Gloves, $25 at Kiskadee
Any outdoor activity during the winter is improved with warm gloves, but if you can’t switch playlists or answer the phone while wearing them what’s the point? Give your favorite runner or cyclist a pair of these texting gloves so they can stay dialed in while braving the elements.
6. Lavender Pillow Insert, $31 at Coco Blanca
A perfect gift for relieving stress and improving sleep is our linen pillow insert, filled with the soothing aroma of natural French lavender flowers. Simply tuck between your pillow and case or under your pillow itself to lull yourself to sleep!
7. Week of Power Supply Meals, Prices vary at Fitness on the Run
Healthy eating made crazy simple for folks with an active lifestyle who want to feel, look and perform better. Enjoy fresh, locally made, responsibly sourced and delicious meals (and some recipe inspiration for your kitchen), without the time and brain commitment of going it alone.
