American Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles flaunted her bold, streetwear-inspired style and new blonde look as she made an appearance at Houston Rockets' recent game against the New York Knicks. Fresh off the Gold Over America Tour and her campaign at the Paris Olympics, Chiles turned heads with her vibrant fashion statement.
After her Paris Games exploits, where she won her second Olympic medal by contributing to the United States gold medal victory in the team event, the 23-year-old joined the Gold Over America Tour in September. Led by teammate Simone Biles and featuring other gymnasts like Jade Carey, Hezly Rivera and Fred Richard, along with 12 others, the tour offered a one-of-a-kind experience for the fans, and it was aimed to inspire the next generation of gymnasts. After visiting 30 cities across the United States, the tour came to an end on Sunday (Oct. 3).
Afterward, the Oregon native was spotted relishing her downtime as she attended the Houston Rockets' Monday night game against the New York Knicks. The Rockets triumphed over the Knicks 109-97 with Alperen Sengun being the top contributor with 25 points and 14 rebounds.
Jordan Chiles took to her Instagram to share pictures of her enchanting look, where she rocked a white bralette paired with an oversized black leather coat and baggy, light-wash jeans. Chiles accessorized it with a black baseball cap featuring the Rockets logo and carried a designer Diesel handbag. Her blonde hair and necklace added a layer of glam to her look, while her pointed black high heels brought a sleek and feminine edge to her overall ensemble.

"Just being authentic to who I am" - Jordan Chiles opens up on inspiring fans by staying true to herself
Speaking at a recent event celebrating her collaboration with Vaseline, Jordan Chiles stated that she aims to inspire her fans by setting an example of authenticity and staying true to who she truly is.
"Showing up for my best self is really the people that are under and above me, you know? I feel like some people, when it comes to asking me that they're like oh the younger generation, it's like no, there's people above me that do look up to me and I think just being authentic to who I am," she said.
"It's also my 'why,' like 'why do I do my sport?' or ' why do I, you know, become great partners with Vaseline?' or 'why do I, you know, do the things that I do, it's because of just me being the person I am," Chiles added.
Jordan Chiles earned her first individual Olympic medal with a bronze medal in the floor exercise. However, she was later stripped of the medal after the CAS ruling, a decision she expressed deep disappointment over.
