Get The Athleisure Look + Giveaway

Being a full time blogger I spend 90% of my time in workout clothes. For one they are beyond comfortable, and second I go to the gym every morning. I am always on the hunt of cute, affordable, easy workout gear. There are a lot of times I go from the gym to a coffee meeting, lunch with a friend, a coffee shop to work on blog posts, or just out to run errands. To get the athleisure look you just need clothes that can go from the gym to brunch or a movie easily. For MONTHS I have been on the hunt for new workout shorts. I am super picky about them. They need to be long enough, because at 32 short shorts aren’t my thing. They need to be inexpensive because if I love them I will no doubt buy them in every single color. I found the Journey Shorts by Calia by Carrie Underwood at DICK’S Sporting Goods®. These shorts are AMAZING. They breathe, they are long enough for people who do not want insanely short shorts, plus they are really comfortable. You could wear them all day and not feel constricted. I could easily wear these for running, regular gym workouts, errands, etc. But let’s talk about the Calia line. I could not believe how cute this line of clothing was! I actually went to look at DICK’S selection of Lucy active wear and when I saw this line I was drawn to it. So many bright colors, patterns and easy pieces that can be mixed and matched. I have a feeling I will be going back for more really soon! I also loved the selection of Under Armour, Nike, and found the cutest Lucy sports bra! Seriously, if you haven’t been to a Dick’s lately, you need to! The women’s selection is where it’s at! The Nike Kaishi sneakers are technically guys but I just got them a guys size 6 and they worked! I work out on the weekends at the park by our house a lot. It has a lot of areas to get a good workout in. Box jumps, pull ups, tricep dips, and a path for running. Plus the weather has been so nice lately it’s hard to want to workout indoors.

Journey Shorts (c/o) | Printed Jersey Tank Top (c/o) | Nike Kaishi Sneakers (c/o)

To really get the athleisure look post-workout, I wore these super cute printed shorts in the same style as above. I also added this grey essential tank. So this tank is probably my favorite thing I bought. I actually purchased three more colors of it because I loved it so much! It’s very breathable but also easy to pair with workout clothes or non workout clothes! Then I added this knit cocoon sweater, and an easy crossbody bag to grab some Starbucks, and run a few errands before meeting a friend for an afternoon movie. This is absolutely something I would wear to the gym and then add the sweater because coffee shops and movie theaters are notoriously cold! We have this awesome outdoor shopping area near my house that has a movie theater, restaurants, and lots of stores. While waiting for my friend I stumbled upon this rock/fountain area and sat down to respond to emails and enjoy my green tea lemonade. It was super windy so I was really glad I had this sweater. What I love about the sweater is that you could wear it over your workout clothes to barre, yoga, or the gym, and then transition it to an afternoon outing so easily. I wore the same sneakers because I feel like even though they are great for workouts they are also great for errand running. Beyond comfy!

    What a great look! Finding shorts that are long enough for working out is always something I struggle with. I don’t know why they make them so short! I find that I spend an awful lot of time pulling them down and adjusting them and then get frustrated. Can’t wait to check these out.
