STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Athleisure

Athleisure is a word that is popping up in magazines and fashion blogs everywhere. It’s the latest and greatest trend that is not only chic but super comfortable! It’s a mix between athletic wear and leisure: athleisure.

This Fashionista is featured wearing a fun graphic T-shirt, distressed ball cap, leggings, sneakers and a flannel to tie the look together. Pulling together everyday basics creates a very “put together” look with little to no effort! Athleisure looks are perfect for days when you’re out and about—like running errands, shopping or going to class.

Some key pieces for this look are a graphic T-shirt, sneakers, and a baseball hat. Jawbreaking (an independent clothing label known for their #RAD graphic T-shirts), Urban Outfitters and even Old Navy have great options for affordable but super cute graphic T-shirts.

Comfortable and cute sneakers will be your best friend this upcoming fall and winter. Something as simple as having nice sneakers can change your look from sloppy to stylish. I recommend investing in adidas Superstars or slip-on Vans; both are super comfortable.

Lastly, a baseball cap can really save you on those days when you should have washed your hair, but didn’t. By selecting a neutral colored hat, like this Fashionista’s grey cap, you can easily pair it with other basics you have in your closet.

Having a go-to outfit that can be thrown on is a total life-saver. If you’re on the go, it’s nice to have basics to pull from and create an effortlessly chic look.
