Today, I’m diving into something that’s been a game-changer in my workout wardrobe lately – the Astoria Live Luxe Crossed Back Long Sleeve Top. Priced at £46, this piece has been turning heads at the gym, and let me tell you, it’s been doing more than just keeping me warm.
First thing’s first, sizing. It ranges from XS to XL, but a little birdie (aka, a bunch of reviews) told me it runs a tad snug. If you’re on the fence about what size to go for, maybe consider sizing up. There’s nothing worse than feeling restricted while you’re trying to nail those reps, am I right?
Now, let’s chat about the fabric because this is where the magic happens. Astoria‘s custom LUXE blend is nothing short of dreamy. It’s so soft you might just want to wear it to bed, but it’s built for the gym. Offering that second-skin feel with the kind of support and flexibility you need for any workout, this top really does tick all the boxes.
But here’s the kicker, the design. This isn’t just any long sleeve top. The crossed back is not only stylish but also supremely functional, providing unmatched breathability. Say goodbye to overheating mid-session. Plus, the top comes equipped with removable padding, meaning you can say adios to your sports bra on days you rock this top. The open scoop neck adds a touch of elegance, while the long sleeves with thumb holes are perfect for those cooler days or outdoor runs.
The open cross-back design isn’t just for show; it’s a thoughtful feature that keeps you cool and adds a dash of flair to your gym attire. Whether you’re stretching, lifting, or hitting the treadmill, this top has you covered – figuratively and literally.
And let’s not overlook the practicality of those thumb holes – they keep your sleeves in place, adding a cozy element that’s perfect for the start of your workout or a cool-down session. Plus, they just look cool, don’t they?
So, is the Astoria Live Luxe Crossed Back Long Sleeve Top worth adding to your workout wardrobe? Absolutely. It’s not often you find a piece that combines style, comfort, and functionality so seamlessly. Whether you’re powering through a HIIT workout or enjoying a leisurely walk in the park, this top is versatile enough to match your activity level and stylish enough to wear beyond the gym.
In essence, this top is a reminder that your workout gear can be just as dynamic and versatile as your fitness routine. So, if you’re looking to upgrade your gym look with something that blends performance with style, the Astoria Live Luxe Crossed Back Long Sleeve Top might just be what you’re looking for.
