There's nothing quite as motivating in picking up a new movement routine than buying a fresh activewear set. With the power of a matching bra and legging combination, the world's challenges somehow seem more solvable. Although an integral part of workout routines everywhere, the power of a matching set doesn't come cheap—they can cost upwards of $200 given the amount of trendy, fashion-forward athleisure and athletic brands striving to create the cutest, comfiest sets while still retaining cinching, sweat-wicking materials. Lucky for you, I've been trying Pilates and yoga, meaning I've been hunting for matching workout sets that won't cost me an arm and a leg. Keep scrolling to discover 14 of my favorite colorful workout sets that make me feel like Hailey Bieber strolling around in L.A. with an iced dirty chai oat-milk latte.

Whether you're heading to a Pilates class, hiking, or forcing yourself out of bed to walk around the neighborhood, these affordable activewear sets from celeb-loved brands like Set Active and ALO will leave you feeling put together.
