Does anyone wear real clothes anymore?
I can’t remember the last time I saw women 50 and older not in black leggings.
It has become our daily uniform.
So here’s how to get athleisure all right, and one or two tweaks is all it takes.
Wear a longline sports bra, not a regular bra.
It doesn’t work.
Thin, stretchy moisture-wicking fabrics, tops with widenecklinesor scope armholes and racerback tanks need a stylish sports bra.
It’s the magic ingredient that banishes jiggles and rolls.
Black works with everything, but try color for a change and if it shows … great!
Choose body-friendly tanks with the right shape.
Sleeveless tanks are an essential part of workouts and the athleisure look.
The deeply whittled armhole reveals more of the shoulder to create the illusion of toned, trim upper arms.
Try these kinds of tanks, and I bet you buy!
Pair leggings with the right pieces.
The problem with black leggings is we treat them as pants, not as an athleisure item.
Here’s the difference.
Black leggings are great at the gym and for errands andworkoutswith long tunic tops or sweatshirts and sneakers.
They look amazing in cold weather as a base for layers, sweaters andboots.
Then they look like pantyhose.
