Love it or hate it, "athleisure" is officially recognized as a legitimate word in the English language. Yes, you read that right. I, for one, constantly feel lucky to live in a time where comfortable, stylish fashion is both celebrated and encouraged. With a huge shifting focus on wellness and health in the fashion industry, it makes sense that are wardrobe reflects breathable, versatile pieces that won't cause us to feel restricted. Since we're all busier than ever, multifunctional options that take you seamlessly from one activity, errand, or function to the next just make sense.
If you're still hesitant to rock leggings from work to happy hour, we're here to convert you. Activewear does not equal sloppy or lazy, especially these new JoyLab by Target pieces. The looks are fitted and flattering, and the brand's patterns and hues are on-trend and versatile. Layer sweaters over an oxford for work or pair leggings with booties for brunch. Still not quite sure how to make it all work? Scroll down.
