Stretch into some new duds

Have a hot date with a yoga mat, but nothing to wear? Want to buy a new outfit, but like every other level-headed thinker in this downward facing economy, don’t want to spend the big bucks? Try a few sales on for size.

For $20 or under at Lucy.com, you can slip into a new pair of ideal dance pants that will make that special yogi turn his head. Or, if your style requires a different approach, warm up with a paradise thermal, make a statement with a peace tank, or cater to your baby-to-be belly with a luna maternity capri.

As if you thought that the fun stops at Lucy. Check out Prana or Athletica for more deals. You, and your pocketbook, will be glad you did.
