Once reserved for gym bags and sofa days, the humble track pant has, in recent years, made the official move to high fashion staple, and Amanda Holden is the latest in a long list of celebrities to show them off.
The presenter is most often spotted in polished colour-blocking ensembles or fitted frocks, but earlier this week, Amanda was seen out and about in London wearing a pair of leopard print Adidas joggers, which felt like a relaxed and fun change from her usual glam outfit formulas. Of course, the star still gave the sporty bottoms a chic spin, styling them expertly with a fitted brown top and a mink coloured, faux fur coat - and her outfit was like a masterclass in how to tick off the athleisure trend for this season.
Amanda’s combination was a total winner for a low-key day and can easily be recreated for any weekend plans. You can emulate her high-meets-low combination with the stylish buys below.

A light satin fabric combined with bold leopard print gives the retro bottoms a very fresh and modern feel. Wear them with a fitted top and jacket like the star or team them with a cosy knit.
Ruching at the front of this top gives the otherwise simple separate a high fashion feel that will sit well with barrel leg jeans or a leather skirt.
A fuzzy coat in a soft oatmeal colour is a total classic and will see you through the last few weeks of winter, and can then be worn again next year without any worries about it dating.
