Hey everyone! So I was recently kindly gifted some activewear pieces from Bouda Vida. I've been going for so many walks during lockdown to keep myself sane and this activewear has come in so handy! I love what their brand stands for, they're amazing and definitely one to check out. 5% of all of their sales are donated to women's sport as every 6 months, they choose 3 beneficiaries to give 5% of their profits to. They want to ensure that money from the sale of women's products goes directly back into women's sport which I think is amazing and an even bigger reason to support this brand.
A bit about the brand:
They aim to produce activewear that makes women feel good about their bodies whilst exercising and I definitely do as the products are so flattering and make me feel good about myself and my body. Another big reason that I love this brand is that they only release 2 ranges per year to avoid being sucked into the fast fashion cycle. Due to this, all of their new ranges blend into their old ones which gives their products a longer life span as they can be worn together! They moved their manufacturing from China to Europe in 2018 to reduce their carbon footprint and then in 2019, they also began to use bamboo-blend fabrics in their collections which adds to their sustainability and their swing tags are made from reusable bobbles also. In 2020, they aim to produce ranges by re-purposing old stock to avoid products ending up in landfill sites which I think is pretty amazing.
The products:
The first item I was sent was the Zoom Leggings in Black.
They are the comfiest pair of gym leggings I have ever owned and they are so flattering on! I genuinely haven't stopped wearing mine ever since I received them. They are also not see-through at all which I find is a huge problem from me when buying gym leggings as a lot of them are see-through but these are really thick yet still so comfy at the same time! They are 3/4 length leg which I find flattering also. They also have mesh panel detailing at the back which is such a nice touch and makes them more modern and fashionable. They basically sculpt your body which I love as I feel more confident when exercising due to these!
The second item I was kindly sent was the Spirit Crop in Black.
Again, this sports bra is so comfy and is very flattering when on. It also has mesh detailing at the back and a cut out section which is very fashionable. I like how tight it is to my body as there's nothing worse than not feeling secure when exercising. This matches perfectly with the Zoom Leggings as well which are mentioned above. Such a cute set!

The third item I received was the Swagger Tee in Light Grey/White.
This t-shirt is perfect as it's oversized therefore it doesn't make me feel as sweaty when I'm exercising. The material is a technical fast-drying fabric therefore it is perfect for exercising and work-outs. Again, this is really flattering on and it's really stretchy so any workout you do, it will be able to withstand!

The fourth item I was sent was the Rise Midlayer in Black. (Linked in Light Grey as black is sold out!)
They do also stock this in White and Mint too. I cannot praise this half-zip enough, I've worn it literally everywhere since I've got it! Even just to the supermarkets because it is that comfy! They're only £40 which I think is so affordable for what you get as not only are they really fashionable, they keep you warm even on the coldest of days. I've also washed this so many times since purchasing and it still looks brand new! I couldn't live without my midlayer now and I will definitely be purchasing the other colours too!

The final item I was kindly gifted was the Cushty Gym Bag.
This bag is such a good size, more than enough room for all your gym essentials! I haven't had much chance to use mine yet with all the gyms being closed but as soon as they open, I will be using this straight away! It is such good quality as it is made from Neoprene fabric which ensures durability. It also has internal pockets which are so handy. I would definitely recommend this gym bag for anyone who needs a new one!
*Although the products are gifted, all opinions remain my own.
If anyone is in the market for some new gym clothes, definitely check Bouda Vida out as not only are their pieces amazing quality, they are trying to make a difference by donating some of their profits towards women's sport which I think is an amazing cause to support. Thank you so much again to the team at Bouda Vida for sending me these products, I'm so grateful 🖤
Hope everyone is well and staying safe!
