If yoga, NIA or Pilates fit into your exercise routine, you probably know that a good pair of exercise pants is worth its weight in gold.

The yoginis and Nia-lova's I know are absolutely batty for an activewear line called lucy. According to their not-so-very scientific poll, lucy pants come in with the best cost-to-quality ratio.

And once you see a pair of lucy pants, it's obvious why women like them so much. The designs and fabrics are spot on. They're thick, but not bulky. They stay in place without feeling constrictive, plus the clothes are stylish enough to wear in public. Add to that the signature earth-friendly fabrics made from bamboos, organic cotton and soy, lucy clothes let you stop worrying about your clothes and start worrying about your drop-backs.

Namaste, baby!
