The Street Style Way to Rock the Athleisure Trend

Athleisure is a deliciously weird way to be able to combine business casual pieces with sportswear staples. It's SO popular that the term made a place for itself in the dictionary, forever. Busy lives demand comfortable, practical clothes and athleisure is the perfect way to achieve that, all while still managing to be chic. This sporty street style babe was spotted in the major trend, layering a cropped hoodie over a loose-fitting button-down shirt, detailed joggers, and a grunge-inspired pair of white boots.

There is a plethora of the '90s trend that we're so glad resurfaced like fanny packs, mom jeans, muted tones, and graphic t-shirts. There's another look we're always down for that Alessandra Ambrosio has perfected. She was spotted out and about in a white muscle tank, cut-off denim shorts, and combat boots. Of course, the icing on the cake was her flannel shirt tied around her waist and a luxurious bucket bag hanging at her hip.

20 Alternative Wedding Looks

1. Stone Cold Fox dress



2. Naeem Khan separates



3. Jenna Lyons at Solange Knowles' wedding


As some of you may know, my fiancé and I have been engaged for over two years now. We got engaged right before my dad passed away, so the wedding planning got put on the back-burner. It's been hard to think of having a wedding without my dad being around, but we've finally come around to feeling excited about it again and are slowly starting to make plans. With that, of course, comes the search for the perfect wedding look. I've been on the hunt for a more non-traditional wedding look and have really been interested in the idea of pants. These are some of the best alternative looks I've come across so far.

GRUNGE CHIC

Why hello there total grunge chic, plaid UNIF dame skirt. You'd be a perfect addition to my spring/summer wardrobe! No, but seriously, I am so happy to finally find a killer plaid skirt. With all the plaid madness happening now, I've only been able to find good plaid shirt options, but no decent plaid pants or skirts. Def one of my top picks from Shopcuffs at the moment.
