It’s true, I’m all for a good soul-expression…in any shape or form. Which is why I take the act of getting dressed everyday pretty serious. Aren’t our outfit choices our most obvious way to self-express? Obviously there are other factors that come into play such as weather, activities planned, and of course clothing costs. But you can still look fab while working out the mind, body and soul. Here’s what I’d wear if my soul (not my wallet!) had the final say in my outfit for the day.
I’ve been on a mission to find the perfect pair of sweats since Alexander Wang ushered in the whole sporty chic thing. I’ve tried several styles without success — which got me to the realization — there’s a fine line between slouchy cool and just sloppy.
It’s all in the tailoring. The right pair of sweats needs to have a good fit. That means they’re streamlined, sexy. Too loose and you’ve gone straight to slob central.
Perhaps swap out your go-to black leggings with a so-stylish pair of sweats? I promise you won’t have to leave your comfort zone.
A simple white tank is the ultimate in effortless style. Watch how it seamlessly pulls an entire look together.
And a deep V-neck flatters most features.
For me, it’s all about the layers. I want to be able to warm up (or cool down) in total comfort. And it always makes me smile when my cozy sweatshirt has some sort of party going on. (Cue the festive studs!)
Believe the hype — a pop of neon really does induce endorphins!
And though they may be annoying in yoga, wide-legged pants are perfect for the DANCE!
A good sports bra is an absolute necessity when working out. I prefer mine in a modern design. Who says you can’t be supported in top notch style?
What would you wear to get dressed on the soul express?
Cool ideas! I love to wear something bright–it seems to give me a boost when my energy sags and I see a shot of citrus yellow tee or similar. Love the black pant with horizontal stripes above. Who makes those? Thanks for the inspiration! xoxo
I love that last pair of yoga pants!!
ST, those pants are so fun! They’re from here: http://bit.ly/11dYMlP —
And I know what you mean about dressing brightly…I do the same thing too sometimes — if not on my outer pieces, then definitely on my underthings! xoxo
Me too! It’s nice to break away from our old stand-bys sometimes.
