STYLE GURU STYLE: Kickin’ it Casual

We all know the athleisure trend. Some of us love it, some of us hate it. I, for one, am on the bandwagon. I’m someone who hits the gym regularly, but don’t worry–that’s not all that workout clothing is meant for; at least not in my book.

We have all seen the celebs do it. My favorite Fashionistas Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid always rock the athleisure trend–making it look chic as ever. Are they really headed to the gym? We will never know.

This trend is simple, easy and best of all comfortable! When I go for this type of look, I take my favorite athletic clothing and add to it. Since it’s fall time now, my favorite addition is a leather jacket and a scarf which adds that chic effortless affect. If my outfit has more neutral colors, I always add some pop with a bright pair of sneakers.

Another plus for this style is that you can wear it almost anytime: the gym (of course), traveling, shopping, errands or just relaxing. Some even wear it to work! We all have those mornings where we are running late for school. You already know I’m going to be in my cozy clothes when that happens.

This trend has become such a big part of consumers lives and retailers have responded. You can find athletic wear, or some form of it, in almost all retail stores. I mean, what’s better than being comfortable and trendy? Although some may not be a fan, I can guarantee that the athleisure trend may be here to stay.
