Athleisure is a trend in fashion in which clothing designed for athletic workouts at a gymnasium, sometimes termed activewear, is worn outside of the gym to go to the office or shopping or other social occasions.
I’m a huge fan. I think there are a few things to get me to this point.
- My husband and his cool casual attire and love for tennis shoes.
- My quest for comfort in any and every form.
- My thirst for leggings on the daily.
- My old age and hope to still look trendy whilst running errands.
I think these are solid reasons athleisure is my new jam or my new normal, if you will.
I wore this outfit while “touristing” in Chicago last weekend. We were out walking all around the city, hitting up stores, eateries, tourist attractions- you name it! I am glad I was wearing my favorite Nikes, some leggings, and an athletic pullover hoodie (with my coat and scarf, of course!) What better place to wear athleisure than in a big city?!
Are there any places you all love buying your athletic gear from?
I live in my workout gear too! My son complains but I explained to him that it motivates me to drop in the gym…granted some days I don’t make it but at least I dressed the part lol!
