This lightweight gym bag has thought of it all: Yoga straps to carry your mat hands-free, plenty of interior and exterior pockets, and a machine-washable, water-resistant fabric for when you find yourself caught in the rain sans umbrella. Best of all, you can easily transform the tote into a cross-body or backpack.

This statement-making gym bag (also great for travel since it folds up into a tiny square) has function in mind with its waterproof nylon quilted material and removable inside pouch. But it's the on-trend yellow hue that steals the show. Here's how to wear yellow workout clothes and athleisure pieces, but if you're color-averse, it comes in black too.
