5 WAYS TO STYLE TRACKPANTS

I’m sure you’ve all seen the track pants trend and I actually love it because as you all know, I’m a huge fan of comfort chic and there’s no better way than to dress down than with track pants. Track pants are also a great way to elongate the legs or add some flair to an otherwise simple outfit. I’m a petite girl so I love the options I have with track pants since I can go with a more comfy look styled with sneakers or a more elegant look styled with boots.

  1. Off the shoulder blouse: This is such an incredibly easy way to pull off track pants, but it is actually a look I came up with pretty last minute. I decided to style my pants with a red top since it matches o the stripes on the pants, which is a simple and sleek way to look incredibly stylish and put together. Tops with bell sleeves also help offset the slimming effect that the pants create, creating an altogether chic look. The final product has a feminine flair that is perfect for this season.


  2.  Plain basic t-shirt: The plain basic tee is a timeless piece that everyone has in their closet. Throwing on a simple shirt will put all the focus on the statement pants. No matter what color the the pants are, the bold statement will have you pulling off a awesome, urban look. Throw on a beanie and layer on some chokers to perfect the edgy ensemble. You can also upgrade the look even further with a graphic tee and some platform shoes for an even grungier look.

  1.  Bright Colors/Fabrics: Bright colors are a perfect way to make an formerly athletic piece feminine and girly. Pair them with a simple blouse or a dark bodysuit. Colorful track pants are the perfect piece to wear to a brunch or a girl’s day out. You can play up the pastel pants even further by finding them in a variety of colors and fabrics and styling them with different accessories. Moreover, rather than the typical drawstring sweatpants, you can now find them in a satin or velour. These feminine fabrics look great with stacked jewelry and a bright lip.

  2. Wide Statement Pants: Something that has been blowing up Instagram is the appearance of wide-leg pants, and the trackpant style has not escaped it. Brands like Zara and NY and Company are coming out with their own version of the palazzo trackpant because the shape makes such a statement with little effort. Easily paired with sneakers or boots, these pants are incredibly versatile and look as if they were plucked off the runway. The best top to wear with them is something fitted like a tight crop top or bodysuit so that you don’t lose your shape in with too many baggy pieces.
  3. Heels: The stripes on track pants gives the illusion of longer, slimmer legs, and putting on a pair of heels helps to elongate the body even further. It helps to give the image of those supermodel long legs, especially for those of us on the petite side (like me!). Just by changing the shoes, it raises the sophistication of the entire outfit. This is great especially if you want to turn an outfit from day to night, but don’t want wear a slinky cocktail dress. These pants will keep you looking chic and comfy all night.

  • I am a huge fan of track pants! I have a few pairs and wear them all the time. Especially because they are so comfy and so on trend and super easy to dress. I personally love wearing them with a basic or graphic tee and sneakers with a jean jacket or leather moto. I love all the different styles you show here. Those jean track pants are too cute too. I need to grab myself a pair. xoxo, Christine

    • You were definitely one of the first bloggers that I saw rocking track pants and I was blown away by how great you look in them! You are also right about different ways to style them because the possibilities are endless!

    • Yes I think heels will help elevate the look to more dressier if you want to stay away from the causal feel.

  • I'm so glad trackpants have become so stylish, they're so comfy! I got some in the summer and couldn't stop wearing them with crop tops.

    • They are definitely comfy and the perfect transition piece to wear for the fall :)

  • You know me, Mariann! I'm all about comfort chic and hence I love trackpants, especially when you style them up a bit! I love your tips on how to do just that, but there are numerous ways of looking like a superstar wearing just trackpants and I'm glad they've gotten a revival lately!

    • Yes you are definitely right Thomas. It's so strange how trends work because they are always popping out of nowhere and I love seeing things from the past making a comeback.

  • Love all the track pants. So nice that you can style casually or dressy casual. You styled them perfect.
