Style Tip: Embracing a Sporty Red Look
Embrace a stylish and athletic aesthetic with a pop of vibrant red in your wardrobe. Here's a guide on how to style sweat shorts in a sporty way, inspired by our writer's recent choice of attire.
On Thursday, January 18, our writer opted for sweat shorts, choosing grey sweatpants as an alternative but ultimately deciding on the sportier option. To maintain a cohesive look, they paired the shorts with a red crewneck sweatshirt, creating a unified color theme.
Neutral basics like white sneakers, such as Adidas Samba Sneakers, and Aritzia Unwind Socks, balanced the brightness of the red pieces. Accessorising with a baseball cap or sporty sunglasses added to the athletic vibe, while a Washable Canvas Tote provided practicality.
For layering, our writer suggested a red windbreaker, track jacket, or lightweight hoodie, like the one in their red wardrobe, to coordinate with the red shorts. Keeping the shorts length more on the shorter side maintains a modern sporty silhouette, similar to current soccer and athletic shorts trends.
Incorporating red pieces into your wardrobe doesn't have to be overwhelming. Pair red sweat shorts with a white sporty top, or opt for red sweat shorts and a red jacket as a statement piece.
Remember, red as a statement color pairs best with neutrals or multiple red tone pieces to look cohesive rather than chaotic. Shorter athletic shorts paired with sporty tops and loafers or sneakers can achieve a clean, polished look.
