Are you in your Pilates princess era? Whether you are a beginner or a veteran, there are a few essentials and accessories that every Pilates girl should have.
Every few years there is a new workout craze that takes the world by storm; we have seen cycling, boxing, and even Zumba become the hot new workout that everyone is trying. It is no secret that Pilates is having a MAJOR moment right now and is all the girlies are talking about on TikTok and Instagram.
So what is Pilates? Pilates is a low-impact workout method created by a German trainer, Joseph Pilates, in the early 20th century. Although it is low-impact, it is still a strength-building form of exercise that targets the smaller, deeper muscles of the body.

Although there is technically only one true form of Pilates, there are so many similar workouts or classes that incorporate some of the practices of Joseph Pilates. So whether you’re into heated Pilates, reformer Pilates, mat Pilates, or even Lagree, there is a workout suited for everyone.
This post is all about essential Pilates equipment and accessories.
Socks
Grip socks are required in most Pilates studios, so stocking up on a few pairs is essential. Picking out cute ones to match your outfit is just a bonus!
Staying Hydrated
Why have a boring old plastic water bottle when you can have a stylish, reusable one that is also good for the environment? That’s what I thought!
Outfits
I am convinced you get a much better workout if you have cute workout clothes on. Anyone else?
Bags
Because every Pilates princess needs to have a cute tote or duffel to hold their belongings!
For The Mat Pilates Girls
Giving my mat Pilates girls some love because it is also my favorite form of Pilates. The reason I love mat Pilates is because you can do these exercises at home with little to no equipment.
Gloves
Gloves have become such a game changer for me during a heated workout or for a Lagree class. My hands get so sweaty when I workout so they help so much with your grip!

To Complete the Look
Just some extra finishing touches.
Obviously, these are not essential to have in order to do Pilates, but it is always fun to spice up your workout with some cute accessories. Shop more of my Pilates essentials on my Amazon Storefront.
