This season, the humble sweatshirt and track pants have been luxed up to an athleisure look.We heart this trendand here’s why…
Imagine: if we could wear our Nike track shorts and crop tops to the office, wouldn’t we like that? However, since workout wear isn’t in our company dress code, we’re coveting all the sporty chic styles that we’ve been spotting everywhere from the runway to the high streets. From slouchy silk tracks to perforated leather totes, and especially anything with white piping –the designers are blurring the lines between fashion and comfy sportswear and we are eternally grateful!
Think easy chic with Kenzo tiger sweatshirt worn with a high impact Prada skirt. Alternatively, take a lesson in modern eveningwear elegance from H&M and wear accordion pleats teamed with an oversized floral sweater. If it’s simplicity you crave, then stick with a cropped sweat top, why not pair it with a fun jacket!
I imagine myself to be 10 years younger with this trend. A slouchy knit dress from Zara is my go-to this season. And I do think platform trainers (all hail the silver streak ones) are your instant companions with benefits. First, they provide instant butt-lift, and grant you the joys of extra height and they work with narrow-cut trousers, track pants or skirts and shorts. So, Fashionistas, roll from the yoga studio to the street, or from your couch to the coffee bistro in your comfy leggings, sneakers and sporty chic sweater or bombers!
