Athleisure Outfits

Want something casual but still cute? Athleisure is your go-to! The ultimate cool girl outfit formula always starts with some sleek activewear.

Here’s how we’re styling athleisure looks:

  • Full-length or flared leggings paired with a staple zip-up hoodie
  • Cropped bomber jacket styled with a dad cap for cool-girl energy
  • Finish the look with an oversized slouchy bag to carry your essentials
  • Pro tip: pick a color palette that works with the college/team you’re supporting!

Things To Consider

Tailgate parties 101

Before the game starts, supporters will have a pre-game party in the parking lot. This is super common, so make sure to leave yourself plenty of time to get ready! These are often the best part of game day, so make sure you don’t miss it.

Reach for your reliable layers! Think a cozy oversized hoodie, bomber or denim jacket.

Team Colors

Always a good idea to rep your college merch/colors! Whether it’s a subtle nod with an accessory or a full outfit in your team’s shades, it’s an easy way to feel part of the energy.

Afterparty

If your game day turns into a night out, plan ahead. Wear boots that can go from bleachers to a bar, and bring a small crossbody bag or clutch for later.
