Remember the days circa mid-2000s where tracksuits (made famous by Paris Hilton and her posse of ermmm... friends) were all the rage? The only difference is that back then, no matter how hard one tried, it always appeared like one just rolled out of bed, threw on the nearest thing in hand with eyes half-closed and called it a day. In other words: A fashion flop. It wasn't long before the look was out the window, and it was clear to see why.

Fast forward to a decade later, the look is made popular once again. Celebrities and social media darlings like Bella Hadid, Rihanna, and Alessandra Ambrosio have adopted the casual look, and revamped it to sartorial perfection, making it the getup to look to if you're heading in the casual chic direction.

Scroll through the gallery to see how A-List celebrities sport the once slouchy track suit with a cool, modern twist. Something to learn from these stylish women when it comes to pulling this look off is that it's all in the styling. Just leave the printed trucker caps and flip flops at home.
