High Street Style - Sports

So it seems since I did my sports style photoshoot I've seen about a million things I would have loved to have used. I'm hoping by doing this post I'll get it out my head so please just indulge me!!

Dresses

ASOS £30 (comes in Navy/Lime) - Really like the styling in this. For a super luxe look slick back and straighten the high ponytail, hairspray and pop in a hair cone like this one below:

ASOS £35 - Love the simplicity of this piece! Pair with some high tops for a laid back, street look.

Miss Selfridge £37 - I would love to see this with a pair of white trainers and a little denim bomber jacket, think it would look really cute :-)

Miss Selfridge £39 - Super sleek high bun and a pair of killer black heels would look great with this dress on a night out.

Topshop £46 - This would look great dressed up or down with poker straight hair. Thrown on some blocky heels and a short chunky gold necklace for a going out look or wear with high tops for a glam day look.

Jumpsuits/Playsuits

ASOS £38 - I love this!! Bit hard to wear admittedly, unless you're a super stylish gym goer! It would, however, look super hot and different on a night out with loose hair and chunky black wedges. Alternatively stick a chiffon maxi skirt over the top for a floaty contrast, or a fitted mini, trainers and cropped bomber style jacket in keeping with the sporty style!

ASOS £40 - Great for those who love playsuits but don't want to show so much leg! This is a great relaxed daytime look, just stick on some pumps and you're good to go!

River Island £40 - For the girly girls! If you want to work the sports trend but perhaps more subtly this is a good alternative. Embrace the preppy style with crisp white pumps and a cardi or stick a mint green polo shirt underneath!

Skirts/Shorts

ASOS £15 - Liven up a plain mini dress with these poking out underneath for a 90's vibe. Although I do love the way they've been styled here too!

ASOS £24.50 down from £35 - This is definitely a look for taller girls and high heels help to keep the legs looking long in a skirt this length. Love the fluoro piping (this skirt also has a matching blazer). Try adding a cupped leotard to sexy it up a bit or dress it down with a loose fitting t-shirt tucked in and layers of necklaces. Mix and match the colours and lengths to make sure it doesn't look too 'done'

River Island £30 - This is a great colour companion to a sporty top or leotard. It would go well with the Project by Miss Selfridge bralet further below to nail the midriff baring trend seen on the catwalks for S/S '12.

Topshop £24 - For the tomboys and lovers of the 80's and 90's! I love this kind of retro sports style that's making a comeback and I would wear this over something fitted to contrast the loose fit of the shorts. A leotard would be my first choice or ASOS have some great printed swimsuits that would work really well! Alternatively a plain grey marl t-shirt would make a cute cheerleader off duty look! Add some hair accessories to girly it up if you like :-)

Topshop £28 - I'm going to go same as above here!!

Tops

ASOS £28.50 from £36 (also in Pink) - Like how it's styled here with black skinny jeans, leggings would work too. Or pop it over a fitted black vest dress and trainers.

ASOS £28 - Really like this top! It works really well with the pastel trend too so put it with some high waisted, skinny cut-off jeans in a pastel shade for a pretty, ice cream look! A floaty maxi skirt would look equally pretty.

ASOS aertex bomber jacket £55 - I need this jacket, no I actually do. SUCH a nice colour for S/S!! There's so many different ways you could wear this, over a pretty sundress like above (I would leave it open) or over a cropped broderie anglaise vest top and high waisted plazzo pants, or over the first dress on this post, or over a leotard and the cheerleader shorts, the list goes on.....

Miss Selfridge £20 - My immediate thought was dipped hem skirt so i'm going to go with it! Tight high ponytail and big gold hoops for sexy and severe!! Of course some high waisted denim shorts and tennis shoes would look very cute too!

Miss Selfridge £22 - Miss Selfridge always keep me happy with their leotards. They are such a staple for the wardrobe and so handy to have! Really like the criss cross detailing on this. With some acid wash skinny jeans and killer heels this would look great.

Project by Miss Selfridge £18 - See the green skirt further up!! For the brave, pastel skinny jeans and a see-thru loose chiffon top to cover a bit of modesty and this would definitely turn some heads!!

Topshop £16 - Again, two trends in one with the pastel colour! This would look pretty and simple with plain jeans and pumps, sometimes less is more.

Topshop Unique £60 - More cheerleader style!! Slightly fitted maxi skirt or fitted mini to make it look like a dress. Or go all cheerleader with a loose ponytail, a flowery bow and some high waisted pastel skinnies!!

Urban Outfitters £16 - Another good staple to have if you like wearing high waisted stuff. This would look good with the bright leggings and trousers you will see below. Or the grey and fluoro piped pencil skirt above!

Trousers

River Island £10 (also in pink or orange) - Nice and simple, which means you can either add a basic vest or tee or go crazy with a patterned or panelled top!

River Island £28 (also in mint green) - I like these a lot, I think it's because they're retro!! I think they would work really well with killer heels and a cut out leotard (they're not jersey jogging bottoms by the way!!)

Topshop £12 (also in green and yellow) - As with the blue ones, these are just good to have to pair with some of the other pieces i've put here and a good alternative to jeans or black leggings.

Accessories - Just some thoughts of pieces you can use to style up all the above!!

Well that's all folks!! Hope you liked the post. I will be hitting the shops soon to take some pictures of pieces styled up as I know it can get a bit boring just looking at pieces on their own like this! This is just my selection of some great high street options!!
