I have just gotten back into tennis for the season and one of my favourite things about playing tennis is the outfits. Which is very silly, because I usually play in leggings, a tank top, and whatever sneakers I have at the moment, however I would like to change that.

Side note: I think it’s important for bloggers and the like to share if they are actually buying the products they share/they own them. We often take their recommendations, but don’t always know if they actually use the products. So I am going to start putting disclaimers on these shopping type posts.

Disclaimer: I own the Girlfriend Collective Paloma Racerback Dress in Midnight in an XXXL. I find that Girlfriend Collective runs a bit small, particularly through the tops, not so much the bottoms. I really like it and wear it frequently. I have not tried any other product in this round up.

One. J. Crew Cloud Stretch Half-Zip Pullover in Stripe. I just think this and the skort at number 4 with a white or navy tank top or t-shirt is so cute.

Two. Athleta Advantage Dress in Deep Ocean Teal. I love the pleats on the skirt.

Three. Lululemon Sculpt Tank Top in White. This is my favourite shape of tank top for workout tanks. Loose on the belly and super comfortable.

Four. J. Crew Cloud Stretch Wrap Skirt in Blue Stripe. I’ve never tried J. Crew activewear, but I’m open to it.

Five. Adidas Stella McCartney Barricade Tennis Shoes. I’ve noticed in cross-trainers/runners my feet kind of slide around when playing tennis and rubs them raw on the bottom. It’s very uncomfortable, and is uncomfortable for several days. I’m hoping that real tennis shoes can solve that problem.

Six. Girlfriend Collective Lola V-Neck Dress.

Seven. I’ve been using my needlepoint tote bag (post on how I finished it) as a tennis bag for the past couple summers, but this monogrammed bag with an actual racket pocket is so cute. (Although speaking of tennis needlepoint I would love to do this racket cover someday).

Eight. Girlfriend Collective Paloma Dress. As I said above, I have the Midnight, and I would love the green as well.

Nine. J. Crew Cloud Stretch Wrap Skirt in Navy. This is the same skirt as the striped one at number four. But I do think the navy is a bit less likely to show dirt as much as the stripe is.

If you play tennis, what are your essentials?
