STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Stylish Sweatpants

January 23rd, 2015 at 2:00am

Living on college campuses we have all seen leisure clothing making its way back into style. I can’t say I love the sneaker and graphic workout wear trend, but I do love joggers. I mean, sweat pants that look pulled together? I’ll take 10 pairs, please.

Sweats have came a long way from strict recreational use to everyday streetwear. Today all of our favorite retailers are selling sleek sneakers, neon leggings and strappy sports bras. Urban Outfitters now has Without Walls, H&M launched activewear in 2014 and even Beyoncé is partnering with Topshop to create an athletic leisure brand. The best thing about this athletic leisure craze is that you don’t need to be hitting the gym to rock the trend. Jogger pants are kind of like the new legging since they can be worn with anything. Throw them on with a sweater and Converse or ankle strap heels and a fitted tank top.

Jogger pants are a trend that both men and women can rock. Shown by this Fashionisto, he steps outside of the box with his structured corduroy jogger pants. Pairing them with a graphic shirt and warm statement sweater, this Fashionisto’s combination is a perfect example of the many ways to style jogger pants. Versatility is what makes this trend so popular because it mends to a range of personal styles. There is a a leather pair for the downtown-chic girl, a classic pair for the gym rat and a woven pair that I’ve got my eye on! How will you style yours?
