Activewear-new ranges

21/3/2017

0 Comments

 
This week I thought I would focus on Activewear, as there are a couple of new players on the high street, Forever New and Seed Heritage now stock their own ranges.  Witchery no longer have activewear online but they do have it in their Newmarket store in Auckland. (They weren't able to confirm if they would be continuing the range). Country Road have condensed their range into 'Sweats', and now stock basics like track-pants, crew-neck sweats and t-shirts. (I must admit nothing in their range caught my eye, but you check it out.)

I have chosen the pieces that I like from Forever New and Seed Heritage and also from my other favourites, Nike and Adidas. I love the Adidas collaborations with designers and celebrities, and their great use of colour and print. I always find Nike to have great basics with an edge, they also stock a plus size range in sizes XL-XXXL.

Cotton On also do a great activewear range, and they offer a maternity activewear range. Their pricing is really low but the quality is pretty good. 

The Iconic is a great website to shop for activewear, as well as everything else. They deliver to NZ within a few days, and I have never had a problem with their clothes. They are like a department store, lots of different brands under one roof.

Jackets

Please don't tell me this is it, we've had summer? But with this wet and windy weather my mind has turned to thinking about another layer to add to my look. A Jacket is a great inter-seasonal piece to have as it will protect you from those Autumnal elements, but your not giving into the winter coat just yet!

There are some distinct styles that are emerging for Jackets. The bomber hasn't gone away and a leather jacket is a wardrobe must have for me, and I'll save leather jackets for their own post when the weather gets a little colder. Apart from those two, think about floral, embroidery and military styles, as well as customizing your own Jacket, and of course the trusty denim jacket which has been overhauled into some cool new styles.

​I have also styled two outfits with Jackets to give you some inspiration to try some new looks.

DENIM
Cotton On Mila Denim Anorak $69.95, ​Ezibuy Chambray Utility Jacket $69.99, Just Jeans Amaze Bomber AU$109.95, ​French Connection Badged Denim Jacket $159.90

MILITARY
Think lapels, button detailing, stitching, and double breasted Jackets. The look is sharp and is great for office attire or just to liven up your outfit.
Decjuba Olivia Bonded Biker Jacket AU$139.95, Portmans Attention Now Jacket AU$119.95, Forever New Libby Blazer AU$99.99, Witchery Braided Jacket $369.90.

FLORAL / EMBROIDERY
Floral prints are emerging and they can add a soft edge to your look. The embroidery look is also big whether thats floral embroidery, or iron on transfers, you can even DIY!
Cotton On Candice Crepe Bomber Printed $59.95, Moochi Nirvana Jacket $399.99, Decjuba Embroidered Denim Jacket AU$139.95, Ezibuy Emerge Bomber Jacket $89.99.
