Hiking Outfit: Stylish and Comfortable

We have been taking what I call a hiking or nature vacation once a year for the past few years typically during spring break and this year we headed to a cabin near Townsend, TN which is minutes away from the Great Smoky Mountains. I will be sharing several posts about our hikes and adventures but today, I wanted to share one of my hiking outfits. I will be sharing a recap of all of my outfits in a couple of weeks but today, I am sharing my formula for a stylish but comfortable hiking outfit.

I was pretty pleased with what I packed (practice makes perfect) and I packed several joggers, tshirts and sweatshirts. I also made sure to bring a good windbreaker as the temperature varied from day to day and there was rain in the forecast.

I find joggers much more stylish than sweatpants or leggings (I did wear leggings on a colder day) and I find that a colorful top or sweatshirt instantly adds style to an athleisure outfit. I usually wear trail shoes for rugged hikes but on this particular hike, the path was paved so these fun colorful sneakers were perfect.

Dressing in layers is important as temperatures change from shade to sun or change during the day. On this day, we were definitely well prepared and I was able to put the boys’ extra layer in our food backpack cooler when they shed it. Style does not need to be high end or expensive…  I spent $3 on this sweatshirt at Kohls on clearance and with a $5 Kohls cash.

I took this picture back at our cabin: finding a place on the river was really worth it and I hope to book this place again next year! Do you forget about style when hiking or do you try to put together a fun outfit? It probably makes a difference that I know I will be taking pictures but I do know I feel better when I have a fun outfit put together.

Come back on Wednesday to see more about this waterfall and hike: it was a beautiful hike!
