I was putting on these Vuori joggers the other day and I thought ‘man, I should talk about these more online’ as they are simply some of my favorites. And I definitely don’t want to gatekeeper a favorite. This pair is the Vuori Jogger and I bought them in 2022. Let me tell you — they have been a staple throughout the past 2 years. (Through weight gain and loss as well. We love to see versatility.) And what I love about Vuori is that they last. I wash this pair on cold and never dry in the machine, hang only. They air dry quickly because of the weight and the nature of the fabric and they fit like the first time every time. They are in such great shape still, even after so many wears.

Then I realized that I shared these joggers in my 2022 capsule in October. In fact, I shared them 7 different ways and still today I’d wear each and every one of these outfits. That just goes to show that when you pick timeless pieces, they will last through trends and seasons. So let’s pretend I chopped my hair off again and tell ourselves this its present day because while my hair isn’t up to date, the outfit sure are.
1 / The Slouchy Sweatshirt
Instead of going with a straight up matching sweatshirt, I like the idea of mixing two similar hued pieces so it looks less like a uniform and more organically put together. Keep it neutral to stick with the pants and it will look like a perfectly chic pair. This sweatshirt is from 2022 but I’ve found lots of options below!

2 / The Sweater Blazer
The sweater blazer is very underrated when it comes to casual dressing. I like to think of it more as a cardigan with structure than an actual blazer so it works perfectly with this look. The joggers are obviously a more casual piece, even athletic wear leaning, so pair it with this structured piece elevates the joggers. This is a great outfit for when you want to look pulled together but you’re not really wanting to get out of soft pants. (This explains the whole month of January for me.)
This particular sweater blazer is from J.Crew (sold out) but there is an identical one from Quince here! I’ve linked other options as well.

3/ Oversized Shirt
This look is for the shacket lovers or those of us who love to toss on a button-down instead of a jacket. This outfit is perfect for fall days that starts cool and warms up in between. Toss over a tighter tee or a tank and you’re good to go. I’ve linked a mix of options below.

4 / Boyfriend Blazer
A blazer will always mean business to me so when I juxtapose it with these soft joggers, it creates a very interesting look. People will be asking ‘will she or won’t she be going into the office today?’ ‘will she show her bottom half on zoom?’ ‘is she ok?’ I’m kidding, everyone knows you’re not okay. No need to hide it now.
I definitely think keeping the colors similar is your best bet with this look since the blazer is quite different than your joggers. Keeping the colors similar helps keep the cohesiveness of the outfit.
This one is from Amazon and is still available here. Do not size up — it runs oversized. This is the large in the black gray. I’ve linked similar below!

5 / Polo Sweater
Now this look could be a sweater or a regular polo tee, I just happened to wear a polo sweater. Once again pairing up the clean look of a polo collar with a relaxed jogger gives interest to this outfit. No matter what fabric you choose, keep your polo relaxed and looser to fit the vibe of the joggers.

6 / Tailored Tee
I don’t like using the phrase no-brainer, but this one kind of is. A tee? No brainer of course. But the key to this look is keeping the tee more fitted because it keeps this look clean. I also like to take it up a notch and match the hue of the joggers with the tee. In this case, I got as close as I could with a black tee and dark charcoal joggers. You can easily pop on the blazer over this look or sweater blazer, as well.

7 / Sweater Vest
I love this look the most — it’s just cool, I can’t explain it any other way. This sweater is one of those Amazon purchases I will suggest and I will stand by (even though I’ve taken a hard pause on shopping Amazon this year!) But with items that I’ve bought in the past and I really like, I don’t mind suggesting to you. I still have and love this sweater. (I am in the medium here and the color is Apricot, just FYI.)
I think the coolest part of this look are the shoulder pads and muscle tee look. It’s weirdly chic and works great with this silhouette. Find this exact sweater here! However for a more 2024 look, go for a sweater like this one here.
