STYLE ADVICE: Acing Athleisure

It’s a new year and a brand new semester. The year 2017 holds fresh possibilities and opportunities, and for many college Fashionistas, it means the year we embark on the biggest change in our lives thus far: graduation. With one semester left for many students, we have to make every day, moment, and outfit count!

This Fashionista, a fellow senior at Monmouth University, knows just how to balance looking casual for a day full of classes while incorporating fun pieces and a pop of color to make her look stand out in a sea of students. She is super involved on campus, from working at the basketball games to being a Resident Assistant for underclassmen, so she loves representing her school in her apparel. A classic crewneck is a great way to bring out your school spirit while staying warm for a trek across campus in the January chill. By layering it with a leather bomber jacket, she elevates her look from being cute and casual, to a stand-out.

For a student on the run, athletic pants like this pair from Puma are the perfect bottoms to rock on a busy day. Athleisure combines style and comfort, and these easy to wear pants can take you from the classroom to dinner with friends. To provide a fun pop of color, her salmon colored Puma sneakers shine amidst her navy and black outfit. She tops off the outfit with a classic baseball cap, keeping her hair out of her face during January winds.

Style or comfort—you don’t have to pick just one. By rocking an outfit like this Fashionista’s, you’ll be brimming with school spirit and confidence in a comfortable attire and ready to take on a new semester.
