Knowing how to wear the popular athleisure look and the new athflow is integral to our lifestyle today.  Why?  Because, hey, we all like to be comfortable…especially over the past year when we’ve been hunkering down to keep from catching COVID19.  And then, wearing sweats or lounge wear anywhere you go is so laid back and comfy.  Wearing business clothes or evening clothes that are comfortable makes the day or evening that much more enjoyable.  Besides, athleisure and athflow outfits are perfect for workouts, errands and chill time too!

Now  that our lives have been changed by a pandemic that has prompted us to work from home, we have relaxed our lifestyles.  A new comfortable way of dressing has been evolving.  It’s a new form of athleisure called athflow. It seems that living in comfort is something we are becoming attached to!

So go ahead and mix activewear and lounge wear into your usual outfits wherever you go.  Use sportswear the same way you would your everyday polished basics and add high heels if you like.  Simply add one or more polished pieces to your comfy clothes and go out the door.  Wear what you love and have fun!  Age doesn’t matter.
