Athletic + Leisure = Athleisure. It's a fashion trend in which you incorporate activewear into your everyday outfits, giving you comfort and a sporty-chic style from the classroom to the store to the coffee shop.
Of course you can pull off athleisure year-round, but fall seems like athleisure's official season. Leggings. Scarves. Vests. Jackets. Layers. There's no better time to look cute, casual, and comfy.
Basically, athleisure for fall consists of part of your outfit being activewear, usually athletic sneakers and leggings, and the rest of your outfit being regular clothing, like sweaters, denim jackets, and scarves.
Here's an example of how you can throw on some sneakers, leggings, a cozy sweater, and puffy vest for a true fall athleisure outfit:
If you don't have a vest, go for a zip-up sweatshirt or cardigan paired with a scarf:
Or achieve the look with a cute denim jacket:
If you are aiming for a more fashion-forward, edgy look, then wear your athletic sneakers and leggings with a leather moto jacket:
And maybe you'd like to lean more towards the chic side of this sporty-chic trend. Keep the sneakers, swap out the leggings for jeans, and make the top part of your outfit a little more sophisticated.
This fall, you can be sporty, chic, or both. Don't be afraid to add an athletic flare to your style.
