    Don’t own a sweatshirt? Say hello to your new off-duty staple...

    It's official laid-back luxe is a fashion thing. Seen sauntering down the catwalks at Isabel Marant and hailed as the new-season hero by Vetements, it's time to embrace luxurious loungewear in the form of the sweatshirt.

    If like us, a head-to-toe tracksuit feels like a step in the wrong direction, start small and embrace the crew neck sweatshirt.

    The humble sweatshirt has earned itself some serious fashion credentials of late and has been spotted on some of our favourite street style stars.

    The key to nailing this look is keeping it polished. Leather leggings, pleated skirts or boyfriend jeans should be your go-to pairing outfit-wise. Low block heels would be a bonus should you want to take on the fash-pack look.

    If bold is your style, switch up your look with Christopher Kane's amazing statement style, or, for something printed, how about Stella McCarney's animal print wonder?

    Slogans are always a winner and we can't resist the quirky feel of Etre Cecile's metallic creation.

    From the high street to the high end, just about every store has curated a version of the super-sleek sweatshirt and we've rounded up our top 10 style to wear right now.
