When you think of satin, the first things that may pop in your head are PJ sets, luxurious pillows, or your mom’s old wedding dress. Rarely do you think of satin as a fabric for day-to-day clothing!

Well, I am here to prove you wrong. Satin is showing up everywhere, from heels to shorts to bomber jackets.

And though I admit that satin is not the most flexible fabric in the world (it can be damaged easily, and stains can be difficult to remove), it is beautiful nonetheless, and more and more designers are willing to take a chance with it. 

If you’d like to see how best to wear satin without looking like your grandma or like you’re ready to go to bed, check out my favorite ways to wear satin below.

Satin Outfit 1: Fancy Joggers

Okay, so joggers are my favorite article of clothing of all time (I wear mine constantly), so it’s no surprise that these black satin joggers caught my eye immediately. Not only are they extremely comfortable and soft, but the sheen that is produced as you walk gives them a little somethin’ extra compared to the normal cotton kind. 

Pair these cuties with a fresh patterned crop top with a fancy criss-cross back to make your joggers a little classier.

To add some glamor, slip on these black Steve Madden sandals and pop on some pretty bauble earrings. Pull your hair back into a loose ponytail to make sure you see them! Finally, stow away your stuff in this chic black leather handbag, and you’re ready to rock n’ roll.
