The warm weather is FINALLY here in Chicago! Although, I’m scared to say that too loudly for fear that the temperature will suddenly drop back down into the 40’s. But until that happens, I’m going to live it up!
To celebrate, I partnered with Finish Line to shop their new summer arrivals for some new athleisure wear to my growing collection.

The secret to a great athleisure look is striking the perfect balance between comfortable and cute. You want to look like you just left the gym, but also like you plan to run into that hottie who lives on your block.
These Adidas classic 3-stripe leggings and Primeknit sneakers from Finish Line are athleisure must-haves! They work if you actually do make it to the gym (teach me your ways!), but in the event that you don’t, they easily transform into casual chic in no time.
Even though these kick-ass sneakers also come in grey, I thought the ivy colorway was a great contrast to the rest of the grey I’m already rocking. It takes the look from your mom’s head-to-toe matching gym attire to chic off-duty blogger. That said, don’t be surprised if you see me at your local Finish Line buying them in grey, too. (I also may or may not have convinced a guy friend of mine to buy them—for himself—in blue.)
BONUS: If you’re looking for another great athleisure staple, try out the Adidas Superstars. I snagged them as well and plan to style them a million ways this summer. *Note: They run a full size too big.

I am a big fan of athleisure and this combo is absolute win win outfit. Like the sleeveless cream-gray crop top teamed with high-rise gray skinny pants and green sneakers.
