The Trend Everyone Will Ditch Their Leggings for This Summer

If you're sick of hearing about bike shorts, we don't blame you, but the truth of the matter is that the athleisure trend is here to stay until further notice. We might as well accept it for all it's worth. Bike shorts are pegged as one of spring's biggest trends, and we've informed you on how to style bike shorts, where to buy bike shorts, and much more. Today, though, we're here to look a little farther down the line. Ready for a little summer style talk? Thought so.

The bike short hype will surely still be alive and well through to August, and women will undoubtedly be swapping out their leggings for the cooler (both literally and figuratively) alternative. But that's not all. In an effort to make this fad feel a bit fresher, everyone from workout junkies to influencers has been spotted wearing their bike shorts with a matching top of some kind. Whether this matching top is a bra, tank, or short-sleeved crop top, we can guarantee this new set will be the new go-to all throughout summer 2020.

Ahead, check out a few of our favorite bike short set outfits and shop the pairings we think you'll love the most.

Have fun with colors and styles when it comes to bike shorts sets. Again, since we're spending more time indoors, start thinking outside of the box and get creative.

If wearing just a sports bra or crop top isn't your vibe, throw a cool oversize T-shirt on over your set.
