Athleisure: The Gift That Keeps on Giving
Teen Vogue

As soon as the athleisure scene hit full force, fashion girls everywhere rejoiced. A welcome break from the often uncomfortable trends that hit the mainstream each season, a modern and updated twist on athletic wear has become a priority for designers and it girls across the map. Athletic wear is perhaps one of the most practical fashion obsessions in a while, so it is no surprise that it has lasted. It’s as relevant as ever, with no rush to slow down anytime soon.

Nike, Adidas and Lululemon are not the only brands to master the athleisure movement. Free People, Topshop and Tory Burch are just a few of the name brands throwing their hats into the ring and upping their athletic game. Cutting edge athletic wear is everywhere, with price points at various levels making it accessible and affordable for those intrigued—regardless of their budget.

Another benefit to the beloved trend is the versatility that stylish athletic wear provides. For those who consider themselves to have more of a minimalistic personal style, athleisure can easily be worked into an everyday outfit with joggers and sheer panel leggings or warm up jackets for a more retro feel. If your look has more of a classic, feminine flair, a pair of white Puma sneakers is the perfect solution to styling a shirtdress or denim skirt for the season. The elements for athleisure dressing are endless and can add that instant “cool” factor that will take an outfit to the next level.

It’s no surprise that a trend as chic as it is comfortable is stronger than ever after lasting more than a few cycles in the fashion industry. Some believe the intentional gym aesthetic is a little passé, but for those of you who can’t seem to get enough of the athleisure takeover, good news: it’s not going anywhere.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
