Niki Hoaglund, of Naples-based Anya & Niki, coined the term “luxe sport” for her glammed-up athleisure, which includes velour gym totes and straw bags. Designed with active people in mind, the pieces are as pretty as they are sturdy. Take the seagrass straw Tower Hat—it’s just wide enough to block the sun but not so wide it blocks your view, and comes with leather straps, so it won’t blow away in the wind. $65; anyaandniki.com.
