That shirt looked good whether I was running to the store or playing 18 holes on a hot, humid day! It certainly has made me a fan of the Nike Dri-Fit line!

While doing some online shopping this morning, I found THE PERFECT fall fitness outfit from Nike! They now have their Dri-Fit pant in women’s plus sizes in both a full length pant and a capri. The Nike Be Strong Dri-FIT pants are constructed with sweat-wicking Dri-FIT fabric to help keep you cool and dry as you exercise, have flat seams and gusset reduce chafing and promote freedom of motion, include a security pocket for your key or change, and have a relaxed leg fit. They also come in sizes 1X, 2x, and 3x.

Nike Element Half-Zip Top - Women's Plus SizesAdd the Element half zip top in hot pink and their is no chilly morning you can’t face! The Nike Element Half-Zip Top – Women’s Plus Sizes is also made with lightweight Dri-FIT® fabric helps keep you comfortable by moving sweat off your skin for rapid evaporation, has a half-length zipper which  allows on-demand ventilation; windflap wraps the top of the zipper to protect chin from abrasion, and mesh insets under arms vent excess body heat.

The top also comes in sizes 1X, 2X, and 3x as well as two colors  – black and Voltage Cherry.

Happy Fall Workouts!

For my birthday I got a new Lady Hagen Shortsleeve Performance Solid Polo and the best Slazenger skort to go along with the Adidas golf shoes I picked up on clearance earlier this spring.

Back to the Lady Hagen golf shirt – let’s just say, I love the new cut they have. The Lady Hagen Performance Golf Polo in XL fits the same as my Nike Dri-Fit shirts that are XXL, except the Lady Hagen shirt is a little longer which works well for me since I am long-waisted. The Lady Hagen shirt in XL has plenty of room in the chest, too.

You can buy Lady Hagen golf apparel at Golf Galaxy (you can get FREE Shipping On Orders $75 Or More At Golf Galaxy) or Dick’s Sporting Goods. Below are more color and style choices for Lady Hagen golf shirts – click on images for ordering info.

I absolutely love the new dual layer shorts by Junonia, specifically for mixing it up playing softball, kickball with the kids or even taking walks.

The inner short is compression and does not ride. Then you add the fashion friendly, modesty loving outer short that doesn’t ride either and you have a winning combination. With shorts and tops in sizes XL, IX, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5x, and even 6X, Junonia has got you covered! You can look good playing softball – or any sport you love – and get a great fit, too!

More pieces that are perfect for softball games and beyond… from Junonia Activewear for Women Size 14 & Up.
