Bloomingdale’s x Nintendo sweatshirt // Joy Lab leggings // Nordstrom sunglasses // Bucketfeet shoes // Red lipstick
Towards the end of my pregnancy, I developed a casual uniform – my version of athleisure. Normally athleisure is the farthest thing from my mind, but when tying your shoes is a challenge, you start to reconsider.
While I can’t do the extreme version of the trend (Dad shoes, I’m looking at you) I was able to adopt a version that works for my personal style. I’ll call it ‘nerd glam’.
I originally bought this sweatshirt for my husband, but when it didn’t fit, I claimed it as my own. As a huge fan of the 1980’s and all things nerd, it was the perfect novelty piece for my wardrobe. Plus, I’m not one to miss out on a designer collaboration. Check out Bloomingdale’s x Nintendo for more goodies – I may need to get these shoes!
Target killed it with their inclusion of Joy Lab athletic wear, and I picked up these leggings on my last errand run. I’m actually wearing them inside out because I love the color blocking effect over their floral pattern. Bonus points for the 2-in-1 option!
Style tip
Don’t be afraid to adopt unorthodox ways of wearing your favorite pieces. Turn it inside out or backwards for a fresh take!
If you go way back in my archives you’ll remember this post about footwear company Bucketfeet. They put indie artwork on their shoes for a constant rotation of fresh designs. Supporting independent designers is super important to me and I love the coffee cup design on these classic slip-ons.
To round out my version of athleisure, I had to add some dramatic sunnies and a red lip. Although I rarely wear lipstick, glamming up a casual outfit is a must. It makes running errands all the more fun!
