Athleisure Wear for Fall
I have visited Arizona twice in the last 4 years and have loved that state. I love the cacti, the dry heat (vs the humid heat) and the different fauna and flora you see. So when I came across this sweatshirt when I was in Uptown Cheapskate here in Atlanta this summer, I had to pick it up. It wasn’t inexpensive by thrifting standards, but I love it enough to pay $10-12 it was.
I don’t wear athletic outfits much unless I am running or walking for exercise, but I do enjoy wearing a pair of joggers with a graphic tee or a sweatshirt. I bought this pair of joggers before going to Costa Rica a couple years ago as they would dry quickly. I also liked the pockets where I could stash phone and keys.
I think the key to a put-together athleisure outfit is the fit and what pair of shoes you pair with your outfit. I always put on a pair of earrings, often times choosing a large pair to dress up my outfit.
My Calvin Klein sneakers are perfect for giving the outfit that little extra. They aren’t canvas so they will wipe easily if they get dirty and the contrasting black and white is really fun. Bo shared a similar pair paired with a skirt a couple months ago and I reached out to her to see what brand they were.
The fun little star earrings will come to the beach with me, and maybe the whole outfit! I am struggling with what I want to bring because I keep changing my mind. I definitely want some casual comfortable outfits and it sometimes gets cool and windy. This would be perfect!
I always think it’s funny how I can pack so minimally for a 2 week trip to Europe, but a week at the beach has me over packing and wanting to bring all the things.
How do you do athleisure wear?

I don’t wear athleisure too often either, except to maybe early morning swim meets! But I agree that shoes are key! Those pants are super cute! Love the pockets!

Thanks, Laura!

Mireille, your entire outfit looks so comfy and cozy, but elevated with all of your choices. I love the hoodie with the desert graphic print on the back-a great thrift find! And your black and white sneakers are definitely outfit makers. Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a good weekend!

Thanks, Di! I am pretty particular with my casual sneakers because I like to wear them with skirts and dresses too.

What a great sweatshirt, and you could easily wear that under an oversized blazer or vast, or even a kimono, and make it more for a casual day, instead of athleisure wear.

Yes! Definitely would have to be an oversized blazer since it is not fitted.
Joanne
That is a nice, cozy outfit!

You look very comfortable and fashionable at the same time, Mireille! I think, when you drive, in the back of your mind, you know you don’t have those luggage constraints of flying. You know you can take that extra pair of shoes or jeans or whatever because it’s not going to add to the weight. At least, that’s how I think. Since it’s only two of us, we have an entire back seat, trunk and storage space so I can take lots of extra stuff!

One thing I did learn from someone is that when we travel by car is to put the boys clothes in packing cubes but instead of putting them in suitcases but them in a big tub and it saves a lot of space!

I actually only wear those clothes when working out. And that’s 4 times a week so it has to be good and super comfortable. But they are great to wear for a day out in nature!

That is kind of like me. In the fall and winter, I tend to wear something like this on Saturdays because we end up biking or doing something outside.

Looks cozy! Now when I don’t have to go anywhere, I like to be cozy when working from home.
