15 Easy Breezy Plus Size Joggers
There are few things I love more than a great, casually cool sport-inspired outfit. Currently, my favorite sporty piece is the jogger pant; with so many great plus size joggers available right now, they're a super comfortable and fun way to add some athletic chic to any look. A simple jogger in a dressier woven fabric or scuba is a great way to bring comfort into a business casual wardrobe. You can also opt for a cozy French terry when you want to lounge in style.
Although I enjoy the fun of dressing up, on most days I just want to look good without trying too hard. My favorite black joggers get some serious use in my weekly wardrobe rotation, because I can dress them up or down with ease, and feel ridiculously comfortable the whole time. I also love joggers because they are an item of clothing that, a few years ago, I would have avoided due to the concern that they were "unflattering." Now that I've learned the joy of breaking plus size fashion rules, I can't get enough of fashion-forward silhouettes that aren't designed to be "slimming."
If you enjoy a little fashion rule-breaking yourself, you'll probably love the cool simplicity of these fuss-free basics. So kick back, relax, and upgrade your casual style with these 15 fresh pieces that will make all your lazy days look so good.
