Sporty Style Edition
I LOVE a chic, sporty look so this fashion post is going to be dedicated to my love for sporty style and cute athleisure wear! It’s so fun to create looks that are ‘off-duty’ but make them look adorable and sporty at the same time! I love the sporty look when I am out running errands, heading to a gym class, going to yoga or just when your feeling into the vibe of a sporty ensemble that is cute & comfy! I threw this sporty look together with some of my favourite athleisure wear which I will get into below!
This sporty look was perfect for this day! Myself, my mom and my sister were all heading out to run errands for thanksgiving dinner, and before that I had convinced my mom and sister to grab a chai and avocado toast first at a local coffee shop, (my absolute favourite thing to do) and of course I wanted to still wear something that was cute but more low key and casual! So I naturally leaned towards my athleisure pieces and it reminded me of how cute you can make the sporty look! I added this black headband to accessorize and a mesh market tote bag! and voila I loved it! It quickly inspired me to write this post and share this look, and why I love to mix fashion with athletics! I also spilled my entire chai tea this day…. I took one sip!!! I mean I’m not surprised!
Why I love Sporty Style and Always Will
Looks Effortless
There’s just something about athletic wear and when you style it right, it looks like your so put together but you aren’t even trying! I personally think that Guys can do this very well when they go for the sporty and athletic look. Girls you will know what I mean. It’s like…. how do you look like that, in that, without even trying!!! It’s also effortless because it really only requires 2 pieces and your outfit is done! Like a matching workout set, a sweatsuit, or what I did for this outfit and went with baggy track pants and a sporty zip up! Both my track pants and zip up are from Aritzia! It doesn’t have to be leggings or biker shorts either, try track pants, or a baggy jogger! I added the tight headband to really go for a sporty look but it’s totally up to you how you accessorize! When it’s all the same colour, or colour scheme I find it really emphasizes the sporty combo!
Comfy & Chic
We all know that comfort is mainly why we all love athleisure wear!! I mean how can we not, you can make it super cute & comfy, and it feels good to wear! Whether I am spending the day travelling in the car, in the airport, running errands, or just want to feel productive on a busy day I will almost always go for a comfy outfit that leans more towards the sporty look! It always gives the perfect balance between comfort and chicness!
Fashion Athletics (it’s a thing)
I am a total believer that when you look good you feel good and when you feel good your day is just so much better! Even when you are on your way to a workout class, or on your way out for a busy day, you will always feel better if you take the time to put your outfit together even if its just athletic wear! This is why I love the sporty look, you look athletic so you feel athletic, something about it just puts you in the mindset! Like in the morning if i’m unmotivated to workout or go for a walk/run, I will put on a cute athletic outfit and something about it just makes it seems fashionable! Fashion athletics, it’s a thing! Even if its just black leggings and a black top, add a cute puffer or oversized blazer and its so chic! Like when sports teams show up looking all good and put together in their aesthetic (suits, matching tracksuits, jackets or whatever), I guarantee it puts them in a different vibe and mindset than not incorporating the fashion aesthetic to it!
