Athleisure: The Art Of Dressing Up The Sweatpant

Yes, it’s possible to dress up a pair of casual pants or athletic pants. If you are willing to step outside the box a little bit, anything is possible! I found these dressy athletic pants on ASOS and fell in love with the ruffle detailing at the bottom, figuring they could easily be dressed up with heels, or down with a sleek pair of nikes (lately I’m really into the Cortez style – these are so cool), adidas (I have these) or athletic mules like these! You can try this concept with any athleisure pant though and there are some great ones out there! Dressy athletic pants can sound like somewhat of an oxymoron, but anything is possible these days haha. Look for something that makes them a little elevated, like a ruffle or stripe down the leg. Even a pair of biker joggers like these are so cute, detailed, and comfortable. Pair it with a tank, or a fitted sweater, making the look steer away from sloppy! My exact heels are HERE, and pointed white shoes are so in right now, so you can find a pair anywhere really. Try the white trend with a mule flat if you don’t want to do the pump. These cute bow pointed flats and these bow flats are some great options as well. Don’t be afraid to dress up or dress down anything, it’s all about what you make it, and personally I love the concept. I love being able to put my own twist and create an outfit out of clothing that doesn’t necessarily go together. Find a pair of dressy athletic pants and think about how you can wear them a few different ways, and you’ll also thank yourself for the comfortable outfit!
