Athleisure at the office


For last week's Friday Funday, I decided to take a turn toward the sporty side of things with a pair of jogger pants. But not just any jogger pants, naturally—these are unquestionably Unfashionista jogger pants. Why so unquestionably? Let me count the ways!
  1. They feature a houndstooth design (albeit a very blurry, avant garde houndstooth!)—my personal favorite pattern!
  2. They have all three of my favorite cool colors: purple, blue, and green.
  3. The pattern and colors together make quite a statement—my favorite thing to make!
  4. The cut and style is so 5 years ago (I actually thought these pants were funky enough to have never been trendy, but then I ran across a picture in which Taylor Swift literally outshone my pitiful pants with a much blingier matched set...back in 2015.
Unsurprisingly, the Unfashionista is late to the multicolor houndstooth joggers party, but she's just glad she made it at all! I'm really pleased to have found these pants (for $3.20 at Swap.com - hit my referral link if you want to shop!), for lots of reasons, one of them being that I've been wanting pants with a tuxedo stripe forever, and although I had planned to make my own, these ones saved me a lot of time and effort!

They also have turned out to be a great pant for work—loose and comfortable, but still with a certain sense of chicness and sophistication brought on by the tuxedo stripe and silky fabric.

They go equally well with sneakers and heels, so I wore them with heels for a slightly more professional vibe, and paired them with some subtly studded rhinestone earrings and top. While I've worn some sporty stuff to work before, I'm pretty sure this pair of pants is my favorite piece of office-athleisure yet!
