Tired of pulling on the same old stretched-out T-shirt and baggy yoga pants? Invest in yourself and your practice with a few choice yoga accessories.

From your top to your shoes to your accessories, these five essential yoga fashion statements are guaranteed to snazz up routine and enhance your body and your style, from the mat to the street.

Baroque Obi Top

This sexy top is as hardworking as it is pretty. The crossover V holds you in place while it also showcases your collarbones, the damask band highlights your waistline and offers just the right amount of visual flair, and the curved hem keeps you covered without being bulky. Best of all, it’s made from 90% organic cotton (the other 10% is spandex) and comes in a range of the season’s hottest jewel tones, including claret, plum, and teal.

Organic Cotton Back Slit Capri

Your search for a stylish yoga pant you can wear both on and off the mat is over. These capris combine sex appeal (with a stylish slit up the back calf)—and coverage—with a slightly fuller cut through the leg so you don’t feel overexposed on your way to class. This environmentally friendly yogawear equivalent of the little black dress is made from 90% organic cotton using low eco-impact dyes. Available in black, chocolate, or charcoal.

Criss Cross Sport Slipper

Envious of your fellow yogis who can quickly slip into their shoes after class? These sporty beauties combine the elegance of a ballet slipper with the ruggedness of a trail shoe, and look just as great with a casual dress as they do with your yoga capris. Choose black or pink and get ready to slide into your new favorite shoe.

Everything Fits Gym Bag

At last, you can stop shlepping your purse, your workout bag, and your yoga mat bag to every class. This do-it-all bag made from recycled polyester has pockets a-plenty for your keys, cell phone, MP3 player, water bottle, clean clothes and sweaty clothes, and easy-to-use straps for securing your mat to the bottom. Its groovy avocado color and bowling ball–bag shape give it a cheery retro vibe, too. (Also available in black.)

Thirsty Yoga Towel

Sized to match the shape of your mat, this super absorbent microfiber towel will catch whatever sweat you shed and give you a non-slippery surface to practice on, no matter how hot the room gets. In class, its lush purple hue and soft texture will make you feel like royalty. After class, it’ll dry twice as fast as a cotton towel.
