It's great to establish a style but I notice some people pretty much wear the same type of clothes everyday, only with different colors/patterns. I'm kind of the opposite. I don't really seem to have a style. I vary drastically from sporty to lazy casual to dressed up put together. Lately though I have been dressing pretty sporty because I work out a ton and work out clothes look good and feel comfortable so it's easy for me to slip into them and dash off. I've been wondering if I could add more style to work out clothes and give it more 'tude.

I've been thinking about trying this look with a baseball cap:



Not really sure if there's a name for this style... sporty sleek? Can you think of other items that would go together that isn't the same thing in different colors?

Kinda digging this look too. Anything with a leather jacket makes it look cooler.

Just realized the main staples are leather jacket and sneakers. Maybe I should start there? What if I don't feel like wearing a leather jacket that day. What else should replace it?

Good idea. I do like moto jackets. I'm silly. I just realized this trend is called sporty chic, or the more popular name, athlesiure. Seems like almost every brand is doing that these days so shouldn't be hard to find clothes haha.

You can definitely do a lot to spruce it up with different colors of everything. Different jackets, different tennis shoes. Brightly colored workout shirts or leggings, different hats, etc.

I think in order to look a bit more polished, you definitely need the minimalist sneakers. If you wear regular trainers, it just looks like you threw something on!

All I'm really seeing here is that it's a pairing of a smart/sharp, simple-lines leather jacket, with casual clothes.

I have almost that exact jacket. I did a double-take.

Is that second picture supposed to be of a model?

The first thing I thought of, if you want to name her 'look', is "crackhead chic".

She doesn't look healthy, hair is unkempt and needs a root job, and she's wearing scruffy sneakers.

Not even a leather jacket can fix that mess.

I think she looks awesome and healthy and like she wouldn't have anything to do with crackheads.
It's even cool that her sock needs to be pulled up...but she doesn't give a damn because she is cool and confident.
She's radiant.

I certainly agree with you on the first picture.
