If you're like us, it probably feels like you're busier than ever: going to and from the office, sneaking away for a mid-afternoon walk and coffee, never missing a chance to catch up with a friend after a long day, or even jet-setting for the weekend once 5 p.m. Friday hits. However you spend your time on the go, make sure one thing is for certain: you never miss a beat because of your wardrobe.
Whether it was shoes that rub, shirts that wrinkled halfway through your day, a dress that you wish was just a touch less formal, or a jacket that just didn't cut it on a rainy day, we've all experienced outfits that just weren't quite right. As you gear up for a busy summer ahead, make sure you're never slowed down by what you're wearing. That's why we've curated 10 pieces from Athleta that are practically made for staying on the go.
Baja Linen Midi Dress
Working and commuting in summer can be a sweaty, unpleasant mess. But it doesn't have to be with the Baja Linen Midi Dress ($119). Turn to this flowy, textured option for its lightweight-linen-fabric construction that's 100 percent washable.
Sweet Bay Henley Sweater
Skip the fear of overheating and sweating before you even get to your first appointment of the day with the Sweet Bay Henley Sweater ($100-$129, originally $129), which boasts COOLMAX® fibers to help keep you cool and dry.
Levitate Poplin Tee
This classic and minimal Levitate Poplin Tee ($129) is versatile enough to pair with trousers, jeans, or shorts. Made from recycled polyester, this stretchy poplin top is lightweight, quick drying, and breathable. But more importantly, it's stylish, with pleating details, a structured collar, and a wide hem.
Nolita Wide Leg
The Nolita Wide Leg ($60-$98, originally $98) is a must on our commuter list for a number of reasons. In addition to being wrinkle resistant (i.e. ready to go from subway to cab to walking to desk and back again), this trouser features a Sculptek rib waistband and grosgrain ribbon detailing.
Zephyr Refined Tank
The Zephyr Refined Tank ($69) is surprisingly versatile, with a wider cut that pairs with leggings or trousers or can be tucked into a skirt for a more structured style. Beyond that, we love how easy this tank is: toss it in the wash and wear it all day without worrying about wrinkling.
Brooklyn Textured Jogger
The Brooklyn Textured Jogger ($89) is the perfect mix of comfort and style. Made from a cozy stretch fabric crafted from sustainable polyester, the Brooklyn Jogger wins us over with a noslip elastic waist, subtle sheen, and classic ribbing on the legs.
Santorini Cinch Dress
Whether you walk to work, rely on public transit, or hit the road yourself, the Santorini Cinch Dress ($98) is ready for your travels. We love the cinch detailing and natural neck of this dress for everyday wear. Plus, it's made from all-around stretch jersey and spandex material.
Brooklyn Ankle Pant
Can you tell that we love a versatile piece? The Brooklyn Ankle Pant ($70-$89, originally $89) fits that bill perfectly thanks to its wide, noslip waist, relaxed-fit legs, and side panels for added mobility.
Urbanite Dress
Channel a touch of utility-wear trend with the Urbanite Dress ($149), which features a removable belt and button-up shirt-dress design. This sustainable piece relies on Featherweight Stretch fabric for a super-silky, sleek feel against skin all while remaining light and flowy.
