5. Freemotion “Wind” Jacket
Why it’s great: It’s brand new and super cute! One of the most functional jackets around… it’s lightweight enough to wear year round, the sleeves are stretchy for long and warm or short and cool. Yes, jackets are expensive these days, but you can where them everywhere: the gym, the store, driving the kids around, anywhere you go! I usually allow myself one nice jacket each Fall – and this is the one!

Moving Comfort Sports Bra
Why it’s great: It’s the best sports bra… hands down! I reviewed sports bras about 3 years ago… and Moving Comfort is still the best! In fact, I still wear, (sweat hard!) and wash my Moving Comfort bra every single week, and it’s in perfect shape. They are padded, but the pads are tightly sown in so they stay in place, wash, and last for years.
Where to buy: Dick’s Sporting Goods
Cost: $30 – $40
