Remember when we had to choose between style and utility when it came to activewear? Thanks to innovative designs and an ever-expanding market, we really can have it all (style, comfort, and practicality) when it comes to choosing our gym and lounge attire. And one of simplest ways to make a statement at the gym (or anywhere, for that matter) is opting to coordinate your entire outfit. Enter: the matching set.

The beauty of this approach? You don't have to be a fan of flashy patterns or out-there designs, nor do you have to put forth much effort into matching your pieces. Consider pairing a cool cutout bra with matching colored leggings, or try a monochrome sweatsuit. In need of more inspiration? We're rounding up 12 of our favorite matching activewear sets below.
