3. Sports Merch
Sports merch isn’t super fashionable, but as proved by fashion it-girl Alix Earle, you can always style it to look cute, particularly if you’re planning ahead for the Super Bowl. A great hack is to get a fitted jersey like this, or an oversized one and crop it to create a flattering silhouette.

6. leggings
Leggings are like marmite when it comes to dressing elegantly – either you love them or you hate them. In the case that you do want to wear them, it helps to keep the rest of your outfit chic. Pair with a well-fitted sweater or tee, and a tailored coat or blazer.

8. blazer and shorts
Blazers are a useful garment when it comes to styling slouchy, sporty outfits because they add an element of sharpness to the outfit. This is a great traveling outfit, though for flights shorts may not be the best option as it can get cold on an aircraft.

Carrying a super formal purse, like a clutch, just wouldn’t blend well into a sporty outfit. Go for something crossbody, or in a sporty fabric like nylon, to create balance.
