WHAT TO WEAR: Workout

Summer is always a time that sparks a desire for change. Students have breaks from their hectic school schedule and almost start a half New Years resolution. Most of those resolutions involve perfecting a summertime body. The university recreation center is at much slower pace as most of the student population has headed home for the summer. Summertime means itโ€™s the perfect time to start a new workout routine without the stress of fitting it into your hardcore semester schedules.

I spotted todayโ€™s Fashionisto on his way to the gym on a rainy day after his summer class. He let me know that he always blocks out a portion of his day to work out even if the weather wants him to do otherwise. Since the weather was a little more brisk today, this Fashionisto opted for a sweater. He decided to wear this over the tank top he was wearing to work out in since he had class beforehand. It still is mid-July, so he paired the sweater with a simple black pair of cargo shorts.

The rest of his work out gear, he kept in a drawstring bag. He chooses to carry this during the summer rather than his back pack simply because itโ€™s more compact and he doesnโ€™t need it to hold as much. Instead of getting his running shoes dirty in the mud today, this Fashionisto slipped on a pair of slides with his workout socks and headed out the door.

One Simple Change: Since this is such a casual outfit, it can easily be transitioned to be worn to run errands. By ditching the socks and wearing a nicer pair of shoes, this Fashionisto can mark things off his to-do list after class or after his workout.
