Are sweatpants the new leggings? The new jeans? When it comes to post-pandemic dressing, casual pieces are more acceptably integrated into everyday looks. Combining your comfort clothing with your elevated staples makes for the ideal hybrid wardrobe. And yes, it can still look chic.
The art of combining these pieces is relaxed, effortless styling, which admittedly can be less effortless than it seems. Oversize blazers, longline coats, and luxe handbags are a few of the key pieces to execute this perfect mix.
This may be one of those trends that you may see others in and think looks aspirational, however, when it comes to re-creating, it’s trickier than it looks. So I’ve pulled inspiration from some of my choice influencers for some outfit ideas that will be seen at my local coffee shop. And, of course, I’ve shopped out a few pieces you might need to get the look.
