When it comes to leggings, there's really nothing a good pair of black Wunder Unders can't do. They're insanely comfortable, always flattering, and just about as durable as they come. But as Winter hits its frigid stride and the novelty of the new year begins to wear off, switching things up can do wonders for your motivation and add some life back into dull days. All it takes is a pair of colorful leggings.
To make your next workoutwear purchase a real no-brainer, we rounded up 15 of the prettiest options on the market right now — starting at just $19! Whether you're headed to Bikram, Barry's, or straight to the gym to set your next deadlifting personal record, these mesmerizing patterns are just too good not to show off.
JoyLab Women's Performance Constellation Print Leggings

Old Navy High-Rise Floral-Print Striped-Calf Compression Leggings
Mixing patterns is nothing to be afraid of, and this colorful pair of Old Navy Compression Leggings ($19) are proof. The florals and stripes play (more than) nicely together, and at that price, how can you possibly say no?!

Fabletics Salad Mesh Power Hold Leggings
Colorblocked chevron meets minimalist sleek in the Fabletics Salad Mesh Power Hold Leggings ($25 with promo, regularly $80).
