Over the past year, the athleisure trend has stolen the hearts of the fashion industry as well as the mainstream crowd. What’s athleisure you say? A world where workout clothes are socially acceptable outside of the gym and fashion forward? We’ve never loved a trend this much.
Recently, athleisure was added to the Merriam Webster dictionary, defined as “casual clothing designed to be worn both for exercising and for general use.” With the trend still going strong, we’ve pulled our 5 favorite pieces for rocking the athleisure look IRL.
1) Moto Legging ($110 at Alo Yoga)
These leggings from Alo Yoga are the perfect combination of athletic and trendy. Their leather moto panels make them a seamless transition piece to take from the gym to class.
2) Ivy Park Logo Crewneck Sweatshirt ($45 at Topshop)
The second Beyoncé dropped her new IVY PARK active wear brand, fashion lovers everywhere scurried to get their hands on a piece from the collection. Throw on this powder pink crew neck for a chic take on a classic sweatshirt.
3) Adidas Originals Rose Gold Double Logo Tee ($39 at Urban Outfitters)
This loose white tee combines sporty vibes with a touch of rose-gold glam. Style with your favorite pair of leggings or even opt for jeans if you want to dress up your look.
4) Nike Roshe Flyknit ($120 at Nike)
Nike Roshe running shoes are all the rage—and for good reasons. Not only are they a comfortable choice for a quick sweat sesh, but they also resemble the highly coveted (and extremely unattainable) Yeezy Boosts.
5) Calvin Klein Performance Low-Impact Printed Sports Bra ($29.98 at Macy’s)
Stand out from the sea of cotton Calvin Klein sports bras with this funky printed one instead. Pair it with a sheer t-shirt or a zip-up hoodie for a subtle peek of marble.
