I'm sure some of you are still unsure about this trend, so I teamed up with Melissa, of I Still Love You, to show you 6 ways to wear track pants, without looking like you're wearing pajamas!
First up, Business.
Just because these pants feel like jammies, doesn't mean they can't become professional for a day at the office! You'll thank me too when you're incredibly comfy all day long (although your boss might not if you fall asleep on the job)! Throw them on with a blazer and heels, or a structured blouse, both of which will offset the slouchiness of the pants.

Track pants are typically not edgy at all (and these ones definitely aren't), but throw on a leather jacket and your outfit instantly has some edge. You could also try some strappy, edgy shoes, a spiked necklace, or a leather embellished top to add some edginess to your look!

And finally, Bohemian.
I love the laid back vibe of this look, with an unstructured feminine blouse, and some simple brown wedges. This look was inspired by the gorgeous Mara of M Loves M. You could also try a peasant style blouse that flares out at the waist, like her crocheted top, and some strappy flat sandals.

Love your blog. Can I wear the "track pant" with flats or dressy runners? I'm not heel competent ;)

They do look comfy, and not like pajamas at all. You pull it off well! I'm still not sure if I could though. lol
ReplyDeleteThose pants look great on you and you make everything looks so perfect on you.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!! I've been wanting track pants for so long, but haven't found any that fit nicely!
ReplyDeleteLove these three looks :) I definitely need some for work!

The boho look is the way I usually wear my track pants, but I love the dressed up looks with heels!

Great job! I love all three looks!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post! I'll admit that I was pretty skeptical about the track pants trend, but you've provided some really cute outfit ideas here! How do you decide which trends to invest in/try out and which ones to skip?

Gosh, it's hard to know. I usually don't jump right on board with any trend -- I like to wait it out a month or to and see if it's really going to stick around, or if I really like it. Usually that helps me make a smarter decision ;) Hope that helps!
DeleteThat does sound like a wise approach. Thanks! :)
DeleteI had a totally different idea of what a track pant is lol
ReplyDeletewhere are the diamond printed pants originally from "brand"?
ReplyDeleteThe diamond ones were originally pajamas from Target that I refashioned! :)
DeleteNice! I definitely don't like typical harem pants but I LOVE these! Just got these in the mail yesterday and was looking for ways to style them:
