‘Athleisure’: The athlete-chic trend every style maven is wearing
Streetstyle just got infinitely more comfortable.
Without doubt, ‘athleisure‘ is the style trend of the moment that you’re going to want to live in 24/7. If you’ve never heard it before, we’re confident you’ve definitely seen it coming. Athleisure is the marriage of feminine clothing pieces paired with athletic-inspired pieces. Think: a tailored skirt contrasted with a sporty-chic tee, or a feminine dress paired with sneakers and a varsity jacket. With celebrities like Rihanna and Kylie Jenner and style gurus like Chiara Ferragni sporting this trend on the regular, it does look like it’s here to stay (thankfully).
This is a style that is not only gloriously comfortable, but also an easy one to pull off. Simply mix your athletic basics like bomber jackets, sweat pants, hoodies, casual tees or varsity jackets with your current wardrobe items like your skirts or tailored pants. The trick: always incorporate something tailored or dressy into your ensemble, like a quilted handbag or strappy heels to balance your outfit and still look put together. We’ve narrowed down 10 of our favourite sporty-chic items for the perfect athleisure look – just head on up to the gallery above!
