Our Response

Dear Goalie to Girly,

Sporty clothes used to get a bad rap for being unstylish; however, thanks to athleisure, the fashion world has mostly gotten over that notion. Usually, though, athleisure/sporty style has more of a tomboyish aesthetic, with most items being either menswear-inspired or very sleek and minimal. That is not to say that you can’t style sporty clothes in a feminine way; all that is needed is a little creativity and a willingness to take some fashion risks!

Below, see three outfits that incorporate both sporty and feminine pieces, along with advice on how to style your favorite sports swag!

Outfit #1

Products: T-Shirt – Topshop, Pants – ASOS, Jacket – Zara, Tote – COS, Earrings – COS, Necklace – COS, Mules – Zara

I decided to style this look around a super-cute pair of coral pink joggers, which are a great update to your standard black pair — not to mention that they look really pretty when paired with bright red, orange, and white.

To get this look, begin by pairing the joggers with a white t-shirt that has a subtly stylish roll-sleeve detail. (Note: The tee shown here could easily be swapped for one baring the logo of your favorite sports team.) Next, add a not-so-basic white denim jacket with beautiful eyelet cutouts for an ultra-feminine touch.

Add some gold geometric earrings for a bit of contrast, as well as a sleek-yet-girly statement necklace for some polish.

White pointed-toe mules are an unexpected way to add some more femininity to the outfit, while a textured red tote completes this girl-meets-boy ensemble.
