The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the lifestyles of many people across the globe. We’ve all started ditching the pleated trousers and skinny jeans and took a liking to more leisurely and comfy clothes.
We also don’t need to mention how sporty clothes have saved us during the lockdown and working from home. No one on your 10 AM Zoom meeting could know that you’d paired your blazer with sweatpants or leggings.
If you want to style sporty outfits and look fashionable, we’ve compiled our top fashion tips so that you can pull off an effortlessly stylish and trendy look.
Hoodies
Hoodies have become an ultimate wardrobe staple, and they’re not going anywhere anytime soon. There are plenty of ways to wear hoodies.
You can wear a white/black hoodie beneath a colorful, edgy bomber jacket along with a pair of cool kicks. You can turn it up a notch and style your hoodie with some latex pants and a blazer that you like.
Another option that ALL women love to go for is going oversized, even Rihanna has turned the stay-at-home oversized hoodie into a night-out outfit, trading in pants for a laced skirt and high-heel sandals (Expert tip: you can shop in the men’s section to buy the perfect oversized hoodie). A hoodie styled with jeans can be dressed up or down; you can wear it with heeled boots or popping sneakers.
For a more unique outfit, go for a printed or graphic hoodie to add an element to your look. If you think that layering can stand in the way of fashion, you’re wrong. You can wear a leather puffer over your hoodie, some matching leather pants, and a cool turtleneck so that you stay warm and chic at the same time. Colorful sweatsuits are also very trendy right now, the two-piece gives a playful, cozy vibe and can be a good choice for making quick runs.
Sweatpants And Joggers
Sweatpants and joggers are the comfiest pieces of clothing ever invented. They are very convenient on all occasions, whether you’re a couch potato or an athletic person, you can always put on your joggers and go (or stay at home). If you’re going to hit the gym and want to look stylish, the professionals behind Athletic Joggers point out that you can pair fitted or loose pants with a dry-fit tank top or a relaxed-fit V-neck T-shirt.
When you wear comfortable garments during your workout, you are able to move freely and perform better, while looking good at the same time. There is a wide range of colorful sweatpants that women choose to pair with cozy hoodies or t-shirts every day. You can notice how so many women have been wearing them at malls, parks, and cafés. You can also go hippie-dippie like Hailey Bieber did and style them with a sporty jacket, sneakers, and chunky socks. Emily Ratajkowski pairs her sweatpants with a denim jacket, a black crop-top, and finishes the look with white sneakers.
Leggings
Who doesn’t love leggings? They are super stylish and versatile, giving you style and comfort. Leggings aren’t restricted to sports; the best thing is that you can wear them anywhere and in a plethora of ways, all you need is to make them look elevated. You can style leggings with tank tops, pullovers, vests, hoodies, and coats. For a more chic look, you can wear leather leggings with a white button-down casual shirt and a white Stan Smith.
Accessories
Accessories can take your outfit to the next level, the sporty outfit that you thought was so boring before can be transformed into a stylish, trendy look. For a pop of punk, you can take your basic tees or hoodies and tuck them into a plaid skirt with a belt. You can also style your sweatsuits with a matching bandana. There are a lot of ways to wear a bandana; you can tie it around your neck, wear it as a hairband with your hair up or in a bun, or tie it around your head with your hair down. The knot up front can add a girly touch to your sporty look. Moreover, bags can certainly complement your outfit, you can choose sleek designer cross bags to add a classic touch, or you can go for cool printed backpacks if you’re headed to the gym.
We hope you found these tips helpful and are now eager to try out all these fits and combinations. You can always add your own touch and improvise; we all have our unique style.
