Quantcast

I'm not sure who coined the term "athleisure" but I am all the way here for it. Don't know what it is? Well, first of all, it's a look that has been absolute clutch in this pandemic with most of us quarantining and working from home. It's a combination between athletic wear and leisure wear. It's comfortable enough to wear around the house but it's also cute enough to run errands or to pick up quarantine snacks. And these days, it's the trend that doesn't seem like it plans on letting up anytime soon.

In order to dive deeper into this highly coveted trend, I looked to two of my absolute favorite influencers Marche' Robinson and Erica Fae to show you exactly how to rock athleisure wear.

Marche' Robinson stuns in Nike, be it neon green or orange. The brand has the best colorways in both their shoes and clothes and they make it super easy to rock the monochromatic look with their athleisure wear. When the weather changes, the bike shorts can easily be swapped out for a pair of leggings.

See what I mean? Erica Fae's monochromatic athleisure set from Body By Raven Tracy looks so bomb with leggings. I love how Erica paired her set with plush slippers that are perfect for relaxing.

This may be TMI but traditional bras are one item that I haven't used a lot since we've been quarantining. I mean really, what is the reason? But I absolutely have been all about the sports bra. When paired with bike shorts or leggings, it adds some sexy while still maintaining comfort. Heading out to get more snacks? Throw on a cute light jacket like Marche' has up above.

Champion is the OG of athletic wear! Marche' paired a matching bodysuit with her Champion sweats. The versatility of sweatpants is unmatched.

I am obsessed with all things one-piece: bodysuits, rompers, overalls, you name it; so when I saw Marche' rocking this Nike sports bodysuit I definitely made sure to grab one too! It is so comfortable and it is a whole look. They're still available at Nike.com so you'd better get one while you can.

We All Mess Up Sometimes. But Can You Trust A Friend's Apology?

Although what I mostly deal with when it comes to the clients that I have is romantic relationships, there are definitely times when other topics come up. For instance, recently, someone was talking to me about some drama that they were going through with a friend of theirs. Emotionally, they felt like they were in a bit of a bind because while, on one hand, they had been friends with this individual for over 15 years at this point, on the other, there were certain things that they had done, more than once, that were starting to take its toll.

When I asked my client if they had clearly articulated their feelings, concerns, and boundaries to that individual, they admitted that they hadn’t.
