Fast Fashion: A Quick Transition From the Gym to a Day Out
Here’s the dilemma: Barre ends at 6:15, but your club meeting starts at 7:00. Is there time to go back to the dorm, shower, change, and make it out the door? Shout-out to all my track stars who could sprint that distance, but after an hour intensive class: NO THANK YOU!
So, what do you do? Your sports bra and athletic leggings aren't going to cut it on their own, but luckily sportswear is in Vogue. With a couple quick additions to the outfit, you’ll be leaving the gym trendier than ever. Here are five looks that will transform your everyday athletic wear into effortless looks that will leave heads turning as you run (or power walk) to your next activity.
Look #1: Street Style
This transformation is perfect for running to grab a quite bite with the girls. I took a black wrap top from Nasty Gal, and tied it in the back just high enough to have a Calvin Klein sports bra play peek-a-boo. To finish it off, I paired a grey bomber, and black cat eye sunnies.
Look #2: Cozy & Comfortable
For all my lazy girls out there who know that a cute sweater can rescue any outfit: throwing on a chunky sweater on top of any sports bra calls for minimal effort and maximum cuteness. Have fun with this one! Play with some vintage sunnies, legging patterns and sweaters details that show off your personal style
Look #3: Edgy & Flirty
PSA- work out shirts are the BEST for tucking in! Since they are tight and made from looser material they won't budge. When wearing a work out top and some shorts, an easy transition is throwing on a skirt. In this look, I paired mine with a white mini skirt from Free People and accessorized with a chunky belt and a mesh zip up. This look is sophisticated, edgy and just the right amount of sporty. Not only do you leave looking very put together and refined, but it took you only two minutes to transform your outfit into a completely different vibe
Look #4: Kendall Jenner with a pop of color
Inspired by the style icon Kendall Jenner, this look is a bold combination of color and pattern. I styled these floral athletic leggings with a black long sleeve crop top and a pink leather jacket. Let’s face it, no Jenner look would be complete without a pair of funky sunglasses, so don't forget yours.
Look #5: The Quintessential
The classic work out uniform- black leggings, and black sports bra. The classic everyday look- white t-shirt and denim jacket. What could be easier? This quintessential look will have you looking fresh and timeless by combining everyone’s two go-to looks.
What I love about in all these looks is that there is so much room to play with patterns and details. Your choices are endless;never stress about time after the gym again!
