3. Alo Yoga Cover Long Sleeve Top
BEST LONG-SLEEVED WORKOUT TOP FOR YOGA
Lori Harvey has been seen leaving workouts sporting a long-sleeved shirt with a twisted hem like this top from Alo Yoga. We love its ribbed fabric, cropped cut and round neckline. Pair it with some high-waisted leggings, and you’re good to go — whether you’re heading to an actual workout or just a smoothie run. (We don’t judge.)

4. Fabletics Dry-Flex Open Back Tank
BEST OPEN-BACK WORKOUT TOP
Fresh off its latest collab with Khloé Kardashian, Fabletics’ Dry-Flex Open Back Tank is ideal adding a refreshing breeze to your workout. Available in sizes XXS to 4X, it’s made of soft, moisture-wicking and lightweight recycled fabrics, and reviewers love the “flattering cut” and the fact that it’s “breezy but not see-through.”

5. SheBird Freedom Racerback Tank
BEST WORKOUT TANK WITH BUILT-IN BRA
SheBird’s genius Freedom Racerback Tank features a loose, comfortable silhouette and a built-in bra — yup, no more fussing with pesky bra straps. It’s made of eco-conscious modal fabric sourced from renewable beech trees, and we like the long hemline that’s perfect for a French tuck. We’re also fans of the versatile and effortless design that doesn’t scream “workoutwear.”
