Athleisure: casual, comfortable clothing designed to be suitable for both exercise and everyday wear. Here are a few rules to nail the athleisure-wearing look.

LOOK 1

Take your sportswear to the street by adding a loose-fitting jumper or bomber jacket.

Best foot forward

Comfort is key when choosing a pair of sneakers and it’s worthwhile to splurge and buy a pair that will look chic and last a few seasons. A sneaker-alternative is a sports slide or the classic tennis shoe.

LOOK 2

For a laidback off-duty look pair your favourite logo tee with relaxed denim and casual tennis shoes.

Mix and match

Take active wear from the gym to the weekend by mixing with your regular wardrobe. Add a denim jacket or a pair of casual drop crotch pants for the ultimate ‘casual-cool’ look. Wear a longer t-shirt or tie a denim shirt around your waist when wearing leggings to disguise any lumps or bumps.
