SPORTY CHIC
Lazy girls, rejoice! You’re going to own this season. The fashion industry is calling it “sporty luxe” but we know that’s code for “go ahead, girl, and rock your sweatpants, err, joggers, out on the town.” Old Navy is all aboard with the trend this season, featuring terry-fleece dresses, joggers, felt hats and cool faux-suede high tops. Even your blazers are getting more relaxed as they’re made with soft cottons.
Cap it off

Baseball hats are getting a sophisticated spin this season with leather bills or monograms. The women’s caps at Old Navy got a felt makeover for a look that’s preppy, sporty and pairs well with a plaid button-up or a cable-knit sweater. Women’s felt hat, $10, Old Navy
No sweat

For a date night look, juxtapose loose-fitting, drawstring pants with an unexpected pairing—like a white T-shirt and leather moto jacket. For an off-duty, weekend look, these pants look great with a long-sleeve T-shirt. Women’s drapey cinched pants, $28, Old Navy
Flat-out cool
