Let's Get Physical

Forever 21

Far from the colorful leg warmers and off-the-shoulder tops of Olivia Newton John's gym rat phase, this seasons gym-inspired clothing feature modern, structured cuts and sweatshirt fleece material in unconventional shapes. With this look, you can be chic and comfortable.

Victoria's Secret Dolman Sleeve Top, $35

Stylish sweats like oversize, off-the-shoulder sweaters a la Lauren Conrad have always been a go-to staple for girls, but many designers are now cranking out trousers, blazers, and blousers in the soft material. Even Walmart has a gorgeous gray motorcycle jacket for $24, made out of a 'cotton blend.'

The key to mastering this look is to wear one slouchy piece at a time. If you want to wear a fleece blazer, a good pair of denim is a must, and take it from the Forever 21 picture above: a baggy pant needs a fitted jacket and a well-defined waist.

Even if you have your sweats in a new shape, to avoid looking like you're leaving the gym, never wear them casually. That means no sneakers and adding key luxe pieces to your ensemble: high heels, statement bags, and glamourous jewelry scream anything but 'We only wear sweatpants on Fridays.'
