Summer Running Clothes for Women

Nothing makes me happier in the warm weather than knowing that I finally get the chance to run outside regularly.

It's important to have decent quality running products if you're going to be going the distance outside. And it doesn't hurt if you look stylish and chic while you're running in them, right?

Under Armour is one of my favorite sportswear clothes brands.

Their stuff is really functional and long-lasting. Here is a great listing of tanks and tees you can get from Under Armour.

In the summertime, I run in a lot of running skorts.

They prevent both chafing of the legs and I think the skort aspect helps to keep them in place. (There's nothing more annoying than having to continually hike down a pair of shorts when you're just trying to focus on your run.)

I have had a lot of luck with running skorts and you can find them for really good prices. I love this Printed Chase Skort from Athleta for $44.

But if you don't like that brand, want something with color or elsewhere, never fear. There are tons of running skorts on the market these days and you can pick based on your own style.

I tend to go plain on the bottom and try and show off my personality and style with a fun top like this Nike, "Am I Running Too Fast?" Tee for $20.

Lastly, what do you think of the Vibram FiveFingers Running Shoes ($100)? A friend of mine swears by these.

The barefoot running phenomenon is becoming bigger and bigger in the US and using a pair of shoes like these are a good entry-level foray into being barefoot.

These shoes offer a more natural running experience while still protecting the foot from the road.
