Loving to run doesn’t mean you have to look like a hot mess. With a few tweaks, an accessory or two and some deodorant(!), your favorite running kit can go from charging hard to looking chic—and no one needs to be the wiser. Keep in mind that your post-run body will be in cool-down mode, so soft, wicking fabrics that feel good against the skin are key. Beyond that it’s up to you—look for warmth, comfort, SPF or protection from the elements. Go ahead, rock your run and the rest of your day too!
