Sweats Appeal

This was my favorite look of this shoot, since it perfectly sums up my style philosophy. Comfort, cool, urban, glam, new, and vintage, all rolled into one. I love using clothing in unexpected ways. Giving my cute, soft Aviator Nation sweatsuit from my fave athleisure store (still not down with that word) Clementine a shot of chic was a creative exercise. While I'm aware of trends, I don't really follow them. I'm much more comfortable randomly mixing things in an organic, unique way. I loved putting my favorite collared denim button down under the sweatshirt. This gave the look collegiate structure and made it more of an actual outfit. A sweatsuit worn in the typical fashion isn't me. It reminds me of those insane hot dogger neon situations that was the height of cool in my youth. Any "easy" two piece anything feels lazy for me. I get the ease, but I feel stupid like that. Here, I wanted to show how a basic sweatsuit can be transformed into a stylish ensemble, simply by adding a couple of glam touches.

Gold high tops anchor the look, giving urban shine. The aforementioned button down, my fave from J Crew, coming across as anything but preppy. My vintage Lynx vest which you've seen me wear a million times, since it works with almost anything. That's basically it. The best part of this sweatsuit is the fun but not in your face color. I love the soft red with the blue stripes. This pops the Lynx vest, making one hell of an argument for the theory that opposites attract. Forgive this cheesy closing line, but this outfit was definitely a slam dunk😜🏀👟. Always play around with style. There's just no reason to look the same for 70 years and then call it a day. There's no reason to do anything the same for 70 years and call it a day. We are all more interesting than that. What's the most unique outfit you've worn recently? Please message me with a pic if you have. I'd love to see how you combine and mix as well‼️
