My athleisure

March 27, 2017 by Katie T in Style, Fashion

Spring is in the air and I tend to get drawn to lighter colors and materials. I want to feel free, young and sporty, and the athletic trend is perfect for this.

I am not a fashion slave, I do not follow every fashion trend, but I like to take elements and incorporate them into my style. I like having fun with fashion and experimenting with my style seeing how bold I can go. The most important thing is to wear clothes that I like, fit my body type, and suit my style. I would never go with a leggins + bomber outfit, because I know it is not very flattering for my shape. I considered showing you a picture of me in yoga pants + bomber as a Nono! outfit, but I thought I would spare you from this. 😊

When I feel the need to try out something fashionable, I try to adjust the chosen trend or element to my style and my body shape. Layering is a great way to do this. Long vests, cardigans and coats are my favorite pieces to cover, hide and elongate.

Trying out the sporty trend, I do not want to look too sloppy, so I wear the sporty pieces with dressier items, like white shirts or a bomber in a silky-like material.

I love this cool and laidback look :-)

So sporty and casual - I really feel great in this outfit.

I could wear the loose joggers and the tee without any extra coverage - not too baggy or flappy and not too tight either. Just efortlessly chic. Can always add the compulsory long vest for extra confidence :-)

With a pair of black pumps or slides/mules this could be a perfect party look. I need to purchase some of those!

Faux leather leggins and trainers styled with white button up shirt. The crisp white shirt is the elegant piece in the mix, the leggins and the white trainers are the sporty ones. It is a cool and laidback look. I am not into colors but this white- aegean blue set is really fresh for springtime. I really like the white shirt + cool bomber combo (the mix of classic and cool), and I could go to the grocery shop like this, but I think the outfit with the cardigan is considerably leaner and better.

A way to wear the white button up and bomber combo is to style it with a pair of looser tracksuit pants. This is an efortless but chic outfit. Without looking like you tried too hard.
