The tracksuit–styling trend is the new take on the popular activewear trend of seasons gone. This winter, elevate your sneakers with non–exercise items to create a more styled look. This trend has the comfort of exercise gear but with a more chic, put–together style that can take you from coastal coffee dates to a day in the city.
Tracksuit styling 101:
To create an effortless outfit the secret to this trend is to not try too hard, but always ensure you add an element of glamour or an unexpected twist to your sporty pieces.
Dressingtip:
This elastic waist style of pant can be baggy so always consider your body balance and the style that is best for you. If you are quiet slim in the legs opt for a style that is slightly tapered, if you have a fuller upper thigh, ensure you don’t go too wide at the base of the pant, as it could make you look “blocky” from hip to floor. Always consider what you wear on the upper half of your body too. For a more fitted silhouette, a casual blazer works well and for a more loose silhouette, a sweater or layering a tee over a knit jumper can be flattering.
Howtostyle:
- Layer a long sleeve top under a slogan tee and team it with your track pants.
- Reverse the relaxed styling and wear a sweater back with a tailored pant or textured skirt (tulle, chiffon, leather etc).
- Team elastic waist, semi baggy exercise pants with a blazer and tank. Perfect for relaxed office or casual work meetings.
- Invest in coloured sneakers.
TIP: buy a sneaker that is for the gym or exercising but saved for your daytime outfits. This way your sneakers will always look clean and not too worn in.
- Adorne yourself with a statement accessory, neck scarf or layers of fine chains as this will elevate your style and ensure you don’t look like you are in your around–the–house tracksuit.
- Opt for a neutral with this trend and instead of black or navy track pants try this season’s hues of chocolate, burgundy and red.
- Mix textures and combine silk, leather, fleece, lace and knitwear together to take your tracksuit styling to a whole new glam level.
Enjoy experimenting and introducing some sporty style into your wardrobe this winter with this ever–so–comfy trend.
