I've decided that it's time for me to really get into shape. I've never been very athletic - I quit the cross country team as a freshman in high school and never looked back. Any time my beau asks me if I want to join him at the gym, I cringe at the thought of sweaty meat-head guys and breaking my nails on work-out equipment (I'm ridiculous, I know).
I'm realizing that I don't have to be a sweaty slob in a gym to be fit - I can still look put-together and chic while working out. I found very affordable pilates and yoga classes in my area, which are both low-impact forms of exercise - a good place for me to start. Here are a few tips I plan to take along my fitness journey...
Wear black.
For two reasons: It's slimming, and it doesn't show sweat marks.
Dita leaving Pilates classes looking simple and sophisticated.
A little primping goes a long way.
Not completely comfortable with going out bare-faced? Me either. A layer of matte face powder, a swipe of your favorite lip stain and mascara, and big sunglasses will keep you looking glamorous without spending all of your fitness time in the mirror.

Spend on a few feminine basics.
Classic styles that define my hourglass shape are an A+ in my book.
What are some of your tips for staying fit but still feeling feminine?
