How to style the athletic dress

When it comes to styling the exercise dress, the options are limitless. According to Garcia, \"You can easily wear this dress casually with a sneaker to workout and tie a button-down around your waist to elevate the look just a touch so it's lunch-appropriate.\"

She continued, \"If you are looking to bump up the look of the dress, try pairing it with either a jean jacket or an oversized blazer and a heeled sandal.\"

Another attractive feature of the exercise dress is that styles run the gamut of price points. Keep scrolling to shop.
