Pilates at 8, Office at 9
Style Tips to Take Your Outfit from Reformer to the Desk
Your boss doesn’t need to know you were doing plank pikes twenty minutes ago. Here’s how to make your pilates fit look like a real outfit without losing the comfort you actually want to sit in all day.
1. Start with elevated basics.
Skip the neon set. Go for neutral leggings and a sleek tank that could pass as “minimalist chic” under the right lighting.
2. Throw on a trench.
The ultimate disguise. It hides the fact you’re still in workout gear and somehow makes you look like you have a 401k.
3. Swap your sneakers for ballet flats or loafers.
One shoe change and you’re suddenly desk-ready. No one needs to know you were in grippy socks on the reformer an hour ago.
4. Accessorize strategically.
Chunky earrings, sunglasses, and a structured tote take you out of “gym bag” territory and into “meeting room” mode.
5. Keep a desk drawer kit.
Think deodorant, dry shampoo, tinted lip balm. Little fixes that trick everyone (including yourself) into thinking you’re fresh off a morning routine that did not involve 50 minutes of ab burn.
Because chic is less about changing your clothes and more about editing the story. And your story is: “effortless.”
