Curating the perfect workout wardrobe is equally as important as finding (and sticking to) an exercise program that you truly enjoy. After all, both factors play a strong role in motivating you to actually get out of the house and hit the gym. If you're looking to breath some new life into your fitness attire, look toward Jennifer Lopez's workout wardrobe to inspire you to infuse some bright, bold pieces into it. But beware, one look at the singer's athleisure uniform, and you'll question ever reaching for your classic black leggings again.

J. Lo knows how to make a red carpet statement, and she's certainly no stranger to a winning street style moment. But her fashion strengths really shine when she's headed to (and leaving) the gym. Time and time again, Lopez demonstrates that your workout uniform doesn't have to be boring nor be limited to the traditional sports bra-and-leggings pairing. She's all about having fun with it, and she's bound to inspire you to do the same in the New Year.

Ready to add some J. Lo-approved staples into your exercise routine? Ahead, The Zoe Report breaks down the singer's perfect, five-piece workout wardrobe, as well as the items needed to emulate her signature athleisure looks with ease.

J. Lo plays favorites with bright, bold-printed leggings, and one look at her colorful bottoms may just convince you to do the same. As for her all-time favorite styles? The singer is obsessed with the unique options from Niyama Sol, an under-the-radar brand that makes some of the most beautiful leggings you'll ever lay eyes on.

Style the bottoms à la Lopez with a fun sports bra, gold hoop earrings, aviator sunglasses, and a Hermes Birkin bag, because who says you can't team elevated accessories with sporty bottoms?

For days when it's a bit too chilly to rock only a sports bra, look toward one of J. Lo's favorite workout pieces for some added warmth: a cropped sweatshirt. Take some notes from the singer and style it with a pair of color-coordinating high-waisted leggings. Or, team it with your tried-and-true jeans when you're not feeling the sporty bottoms. It's a pair-with-everything piece you can effortlessly wear in (and out) of the gym.

Leave your hoodie at home, and instead, trade it in for a textured zip-up à la Lopez. The singer was spotted earlier this summer rocking her go-to printed leggings, a white sports bra, and a netted white track jacket that added some texture to her look.

Who says you can't bring your favorite on-trend handbag with you to the gym, too? Lopez isn't afraid to swap her fitness duffle for fashion-forward styles, and therein lies the singer's secret to elevating her altheisure looks with very minimal effort. After all, a handbag does hold immense styling power, and as seen above, the addition of a black, croc-effect Birkin bag makes Lopez's sporty look feel slightly more sophisticated.

Non-Boring Sneakers

Sure, white sneakers pair well with just about everything in your wardrobe, but why not step outside of your comfort zone and opt for bold trainers instead? Here, Lopez donned a pair of bright-green sneakers (the slime green trend is big, after all), using them to add a touch of color to her all-black athleisure look.
