Fashion and fitness have never quite been synonymous. Especially in a world where working out often means sweating it out in your faded high school tee shirts. Recent collaborations between companies like FitBit and designers like Tory Burch have given new hope to those of us who want to get fit while still looking chic, though. So with that idea in mind, we’ve researched and listed some of our favorite fashionable fitness trackers below to help you start your New Year workout regime off right!
1. Jawbone UP3 ($179.99)
Jawbone has really upped the game of cute fitness wristbands. While the hype surrounding the Jawbone UP is considerable, we’re head over heels for the UP3. Measure your heart rate, log your workouts and chart your sleep all while wearing either the sleek, minimal black design or the silver faux-studded option. It’s also water-resistant and has a full week of battery life!
2. Adidas miCoach Seamless Sports Bra ($54.95)
Take a workout must-have and transform it into something that does double-duty with a built-in fitness tracker. Genius! Since you’ll already be needing a sports bra, invest in this style from Adidas. A small transmitter (only $19!) slips into the front pocket of the bra and monitors your heart rate as you exercise.
3. Tory Burch for Fitbit Fret Pendant Necklace ($175)
When we heard Tory Burch was collaborating with Fitbit to create a line of trackers in the form of accessories, we couldn’t believe our luck. Affirming that fashion and fitness can go hand-in-hand, her stylish necklaces and bracelets are jewelry we’d want regardless, but the functionality of accessorizing and fitness-tracking at the same time is unmatched. Just slip your Fitbit Flex (sold separately) into the necklace, and you’re good to go!
4. Samsung Gear Fit ($149.99)
This wristband is made to wear anywhere with interchangeable bands in lots of different colors to match any outfit! It’s lightweight and the curved design makes it comfortable and easy to wear. Not only is there a heart rate sensor and pedometer built in, but you can also check texts and emails from the screen.
5. Misfit Shine ($99.99)
This compact tracker can be worn just about anywhere on your body. Wear it as a wristband, clip it to your clothes or even style it as a necklace. It comes in ten fun colors, so you can change it up as you monitor your sleep, steps, calories and much more.
6. Mira ($149)
While this beauty won’t be released until January, you can still pre-order the bracelet, tracker and charger at a discounted rate through the company’s Kickstarter campaign. You’ll be the first to wear the design, which doubles as a gorgeous bracelet. You can also take the tracker out of the bracelet to put it in your pocket if you want for days you don't need the extra addition to your arm party. Mira is made for those of us who don’t have time to spend hours at the gym but still care about tracking our health… and staying fashionable!
