STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: He Was A Sk8ter Boi

September 18th, 2015 at 2:00am

We all have those mornings where we wake up and are talking ourselves out of putting on yet another pair of sweatpants. That’s why joggers are hitting the fashion scene with a grand slam. They are the perfect laid back style choice that offer comfort and cuteness. Available in all kinds of prints and patterns, joggers are now making appearances in khaki, jean and traditional fleece. The best part? They can be paired with any shirt, any accessory or any shoes and still make a statement.

Athletic wear is breaking out into major stores everywhere. For instance, adidas has collaborated with Topshop for an original collection of stylish sportswear that isn’t just meant for the gym. Bomber jackets, the classic all-white sneakers, and crewneck sweatshirts are being seen in magazines and on runways everywhere. For men, this style can go a long way. Here, these Express joggers are the coolest shade of grey that makes selecting a shirt simple. The side zipper pockets are perfect for a phone or wallet (ladies, why can’t we have pockets like these in our clothes?!) This structured jogger takes the everyday sweatpants to the next level, making them a street style that is effortlessly RAD. The fun printed shirt borrows a little Cali inspiration and some skater flare for a cool, trendy outcome. Keeping with that skater vibe, these Nike all-black sneaks are the perfect way to complete this look. Trust me boys, a lady likes a man who knows how to dress. But that doesn’t mean you need to whip out your smartest Ralph Lauren button-down and a belt. Show her you can rock even the comfiest of clothes while still living up to that “best dressed” superlative. Athletic wear has moved far from gummy-waist shorts and a sports T-shirt. Joggers are the move to make whether you’re running late to class or just don’t feel like putting jeans on that day.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Take athletic wear and make it your own. You’re allowed to be comfy and stylish at the same time. Girls? It’s not all dresses and heels here. Don’t be afraid to turn on your inner swag and lace up your Converse with some joggers.”
