BLUF: The onesie is ideal for the minimalistic fitness enthusiast! You can attain comfort, fashion, and functionality in one item of clothing.

•I want to start off by saying I am not a minimalist. In fact, I’m the furthest thing from it, but it’s really because I don’t know how to be one. So what does minimalism have to do with an active wear bodysuit … well the Onesie is the optimal minimalistic gym and athleisure ensemble.

On a hot day this summer, I had plans to go to the navy yard to do some sight seeing, fit in a quick yoga flow, and attend a good bye brunch. I needed something that would allow me to move athletically but that could also serve as a leisurely day outfit.

A couple of weeks prior, i stepped outside of my comfort zone and decided to purchase the @freepeople side-to-side performance onsie. It had just been sitting in my closet for all the obvious reasons. I mean babies wear onesies, not adults… and it was one small piece of clothing that i wasn’t going to be able to wear underwear with! I just knew it was going to stick to every curve i had. What if it wasn’t flattering?

At the end of the day, i had already spent the money, so i decided to give it a try. I paired it with an @freepeople elevate tunic … AND…. i freaking loved it! 💛💛💛

EZ Pros:

•Functional. Everyone hates when you’re in the middle of a workout and your leggings start to bunch up or even worse slide down. This onsie stays put! The moderate compression keeps it from sliding or slipping. I was able to complete a power vinyasa class with ease.

•Comfortable. The material is soft and light. Feels like you just put on a second layer of skin. 

•Simple. I like to match when i go to the gym. With the onsie the only thing i had to match was my onsie to my sneakers.

•Cost Effective. Eliminates the need for sports bra, panties, and a top. It’s 1 item instead of 4.

•Multipurpose. Can be used as a layering item underneath skirts, dresses, sweats, scrubs,etc.

•Fashionable. This onsie is sexy. The lines accentuate all curves, the open back gives a peak of skin while still keeping it classy, and the crop gives those calves a pop!😂

EZ Cons:
•Bathrooms. When you have to pee, the whole thing has to come down.

•Form Fitting. The entire piece is fitted. While it’s comfortable, that may not be the look you’re going for, but you can offset it by throwing anything over it! Literally anything.

•The color. As soon as i started sweating you could see it. But they have a 10 different colors.

EZ Final impression. This onsie is the athletic bodycon. I think it’s every woman’s dream to be sexy and comfortable simultaneously. On top of that it’s a minimalistic, cost effective, functional piece of clothing. It’s an investment is what it is. Personally, i plan on investing in a couple of more colors!
