weed trap 

A stretch of space one encounters that carries a strong scent of marijuana. Unlike a speed trap, a weed trap is often unexpected and won't ruin your day.

Joe snickered as he strolled through two weed traps during his afternoon walk and drove through a third on the way to the dentist.

gym chic 

A dress code consisting of upscale and often pricey spandex pants, tops, sports bras, and similar athletic attire that may never actually enter a gym. Gym chic is more relaxed than black tie, business casual, and casual attire, but more formal than pajamas.

Sarah hasn't worked out in years, but owns an extensive collection of gym chic attire. She loves how her $97 spandex pants makes her feel sporty, fit, and fashionable while strolling the grocery store aisles and running errands.

A term used to describe a dress code consisting of spandex, shorts, sneakers, sports bras, and similar clothing typically found in a gym, but often worn outside of the gym. Gym casual is more relaxed than black tie, business casual, or casual attire, but more formal than pajamas.

Sarah was thrilled when the invitation called for gym casual attire. No need to spend a dime on new clothes or be uncomfortable. And with her spandex leggings on, she can eat whatever she wants.
