athleisure to brighten up your winter

I'm pretty much obsessed with athleisure, and comfy things in general. I mean who isn't?? But seriously, this trend is both practical and cute, so I'm going to share a few of my fave pieces and some different ways to wear them!

Since athletic wear has become so popular, there are more and more styles and fun colours to choose from - which I love! I'm all about bright colours, and this is one place it's easy to pull them off.

If you like colours but are a little afraid of incorporating them into your office wear, go for the fun leggings! You can find them in just about any colour or pattern, and you don't have to fuss about the fit cause they're leggings after all! The only recommendation I have is to go for a mid-to-high rise, because they'll hold up better during activities (so many activities), and you can also pair them with a *crop top*! Woohoo! 

This pair from Bench are mid-rise and super flattering, and they're pretty warm so you can easily wear them for outdoor fun in the winter!

Diagonal stripes and mesh inserts are both really popular, and they give the illusion of longer & slimmer legs. #YAS

This adorable "can't stop me" sweatshirt is from Aerie, and pretty much encompasses everything I love about the brand - comfy, cute, and full of girl power! ✌🏻 It's oversized - so it pairs perfectly with leggings - BUT it's also uber cute with jeans!! 

I chose a more neutral sweatshirt to pair with my bright leggings to balance the look, and finished it off with crisp white sneakers. That way the ensemble is both whimsical and polished!

Since athleisure is totally my jam right now, I’ll be bringing you some more cute & comfy looks soon! For now, I've linked some super fun leggings below, so don't be afraid to try them out!!
