I’ve slowly, but surely gotten more into the athleisure trend happening right now. I’ve always loved the style, but haven’t bought a ton of pieces myself. I’m more of the mindset that I’d like to spend my money on really feminine pieces. But lately I’ve been finding lots of chic, stylish athleisure pieces that are perfect for my feminine wardrobe. Now with the Olympics going on, all I can think about is athleisure. It all started with finding these Adidas Gazelle sneakers in a variety of pastels. They came in pink, but sold out immediately. Don’t worry, I’m still on the hunt, let me know if you are looking for them too and I’ll update you. But I found them in mint which is my second favorite color to pink. I kind of want both; I regret nothing.

A huge trend I’ve noticed for the past year has been workout leggings that look like leather. I haven’t found a pair I just loved, until I saw this moto style pair. I love these for going to barre and heading out to drinks later because they actually look like they are just regular pants. I know a lot of people are always saying that about these things and it’s like yeah no those just look like workout pants thanks. I actually feel like these stand up to that statement. Bonus, they look great with those damn cute mint sneakers. While not a huge athleisure trend, I have to mention this bra because it is so comfortable. I just got it and love it. Bras for working out are always a nightmare if you’re over a B cup. My issue with finding the right one for barre class is that it’s not intense enough for the kind that literally straps your boobs in and I don’t want a uniboob when I run errands after. This Spanx one is perfect. It’s got great support and because it’s Spanx it makes you look amazing.

I feel like the athleisure trend is really owned by Gigi Hadid, who is just fantastic to me. I don’t know why, maybe because I’ve always been Team Yolanda’s Fridge on the Real Housewives of Bev Hills. It’s a clear door, walk-in fridge people who doesn’t want that. #FridgeGoals. Anyway, I think Gigi is amazing and so is her style. I feel like styling her look isn’t complete without this Adidas crop top. Another favorite piece I see her in all the time is the bomber jacket which is going to be huge this fall. I love this white perforated bomber jacket because it’s casual enough for the gym, but also nice enough for a non-athleisure look. To bring the athleisure look together, a chic gym bag is the perfect piece. Kate Spade just released this quilted tote bag with a slot for your yoga mat. I love this bag because it’s perfect as a nice work bag which can hold your work stuff along with gym clothes.

Anyone else jumping on the athleisure trend as you transition to fall?
