It can be hard to find a balance between comfortable and put together. When running errands, you want to be comfortable but still look fabulous in case you run into that cute guy from class. But it’s too often that I see girls pairing leggings with sandals, Sperry Top-Siders or flats. Leggings or workout tights go with sneakers. Period. Pairing Tory Burch flats with Lululemon leggings is never a good look. So keep the Nike sneakers on, and instead try switching up your top or other accessories to make your comfy leggings look more dressed-up. Activewear and athletic accessories (such as FitBit) are trending. I love contrasting feminine pieces with sportier styles in my wardrobe. Pairing a flirty dress with sneakers is super cool and perfect for running errands in the city.
This Fashionista nails the look. Her leggings get a chic upgrade when paired with a mesh detail top and draped cardigan. A bright blue tote is functional and adds a fun pop of color. I love how the silver jewelry pulls the look together in an unexpected way. Her colorful Huarache x Nike sneakers are perfect for running around town. This Fashionista also shows that an easy braid is the perfect sophisticated yet low-maintenance hairstyle.
One Simple Change: Meeting up with friends after a busy day? Swap out leggings for an asymmetrical pencil skirt and the tote for an on-trend bucket bag. There’s no need to change shoes! Sneakers give this look a cool edge and keep your tired feet happy.
