8 Sporty Looks That Cool Girls Are Copying Right Now

These aren’t for working out, but they work out.

With temperatures blazing, it’s no wonder the fashion girls are fully embracing sportswear. After all, there’s arguably no category more apt for the season than performance-driven style. Dry-fit fabrics, sleek mesh, and pared-back athletic trousers aren’t just for the gym anymore as they’re the foundation of the sporty-chic aesthetic taking over streets, beaches, and even offices.

Beloved by off-duty models, neighborhood it-girls, and fashion-forward celebrities, these looks have officially cemented their place in the trend cycle. So, this isn’t about looking like you’re en route to a workout; it’s about leveraging sportswear as the ultimate fashion-girl solution. The secret? Incorporating one performance piece at a time, contrasted against dressier staples from luxe jumper to bubble tops or ruffled blouses. 

In cities like L.A., where activewear is the unspoken dress code and sunset hikes are embedded in our DNA, sporty ’fits aren’t just a trend they’re a lifestyle. We’re talking looks perfect for smoothie runs, fitness studios, or sprawling hilltop vistas. It’s a Hot Girl Summer uniform, reimagined for right now. And with brands heavily investing in the sporty aesthetic, our options only get better.

But let’s be clear: This isn’t about comfort (though that’s a perk). It’s about elevation. Track pants styled as trousers? A natural progression from summer’s gym shorts, now contrasted with tailored pieces for maximum impact. Tennis separates mixed with Y2K nostalgia or cottagecore romance? That’s how you avoid looking like you’ve accidentally wandered out of a spin class. The “anti-trend” movement has officially made its way to athleisure, spotlighting pieces you’ll wear for years not just this season.

After scouring the internet and countless DMs with my co-conspirators (shoutout to Dawn), we’ve zeroed in on the 8 sporty looks dominating the scene. From FP Movement’s essential one-pieces and trendy tennis separates to dressed-up track pants begging for a chicest top, these ’fits are perfect for all kinds of sunny-day activities. We’ve done the legwork so you don’t have to, curating only the freshest, most copy-worthy combinations.

So, whether you’re dreaming of a wellness summer, craving a Hot Girl Hike, or just need an office-siren alternative to tired trousers, these looks are your answer. Don’t blame us if you’re suddenly inspired to swap out your entire rotation. Keep scrolling, they’re good.
