We've been wearing workout clothes on repeat for what feels like forever, and as much as we love channelling our inner Sporty Spice, sometimes we like to feel like Posh Spice too. Comfort is still king, there's no doubt about it, but we want to find new ways to dress up our comfortable clothes, and turn them into outfits we'll love to wear anytime.
For us, the key to elevated athleisure lies in four distinct categories. You can either wear a workout top with bottoms, workout bottoms with a top, a workout dress, or an all-over workout outfit with a sharp jacket. Ahead, we'll break down each look, as well as the pieces you can shop to achieve it. Keep on reading to shop our picks, and add this post to your outfit inspiration file.
