Outfit: Set Active Airluxe Breathe Scoop Bra ($54). Set Active Airluxe Breathe Mid-Rise Leggings ($74).
From an aesthetic POV, I have to say I'm obsessed with the silhouette of the Breathe Scoop Bra. It's sophisticated and sporty, and the simplicity of the "SET" logo across the brand's entire apparel category is just so recognizably sleek to me. Since working these exact co-ords into my rotation in both Spades (navy) and Onyx (black), I find that I'm constantly reaching for them when I'm going to be working out in a public setting (aka a boutique fitness studio). I particularly love that this set isn't flashy, but understated. While the design of the bra is so distinctive, what sets these leggings apart from the others in my workout drawer is the compression. These are stretchy but tight and smoothing, and the mid-rise fit hits me at the perfect point on my waist so that I'm comfortable enough to move freely without feeling restricted.
I was delightfully surprised by how dry these separates stayed during my Fuze House workout. Since I was in a heated atmosphere, I felt like my body was drenched in sweat, but after I exited the studio, I noticed that there were still dry surface areas on both my bra and leggings. Typically, I find that my workout set is soaked through after a heated experience, but the Airluxe fabric holds true to its claims. What's more, I do suffer from Raynaud's disease, particularly during the colder months, so I usually have to remove my wet clothes to avoid the dreaded symptoms immediately after a workout. But I spent at least a full hour in this set on the commute home (on a 40-degree day) and didn't experience any issues with blood flow. In other words, the Airluxe fabric dries quickly.
