The rain is back in Seattle, but I got out during a break and walked Scout today so that was a win! Here are some thing I’m currently digging-
Athleisure + office wear
I’m lucky to have a very stylish bestie, and she is a master at pulling this look off- athleisure + office wear. I love the juxtaposition of something fancy + something casual. It screams effortless (which is actually quite funny since it takes a lot more thought!)
This outfit was inspired by her- a crisp collared button down (office) and a red flat cap + Nike sneaks (athleisure). I’m also wearing my new fleeced lined leggings I wax poetic about below.
The Netflix comedy special Nate and I loved
Not only is this guy absolutely hilarious, he somehow threw in some very thought provoking commentaries on dating, the current immigration crisis, and parenting. It’s a rare and masterful art to be able to teach an audience something so important while simultaneously making them die laughing. I cannot recommend this enough.
The pants I’m going to wear all winter long
Just recently, I inherited a pair of snow pants from Buy Nothing. I have lived in Seattle since 2009, and it was the first time my legs weren’t cold in the winter. This was actually revolutionary to me. I had always just assumed everyone wore big puffer jackets on their upper body and that everyone, just like me, had cold legs. I wore my summer leggings in the winter and fall. I wore my regular jeans all year round. I always had cold legs.
After I felt the coziness of snow pants and realized I had gotten tired of friends constantly saying sarcastically, “Oh, hitting the slopes today?!” I decided to go on a mission to find the warmest alternative to these pants that didn’t look like I was about to do anything athletic.
I got some recommendations for fleece lined yoga pants but again, I didn’t want to look athletic. I also wanted the absolute coziest, most plush, and thickest lining I could find.
I found these on Amazon and have worn them three days straight. They look just like a casual legging but hidden in the lining is the thickest, coziest, warmest, most plush – soft, fleece Sherpa to be exact! I am obsessed!!!
Anyways, it’s 11pm and it’s time to go to bed! See you tomorrow!
