OOTD: Sporty Spice

If you know me you know ... I LIVE in sweats & other "comfy" clothes. The athleisure asthetic takes up so much of my wardrobe, I could write a book on it. 

I feel like, even today, when sweats and joggers and tees are SO TRENDY, people still see wearing super casual clothes as laziness. Like, if one decided to leave the house in anything they could've bought at Modells, they simple don't care about their appearance.
Well I'm here to tell you (and show you) those people are wrong. Sweats and other clothes you'd typically wear to the gym, can be SO CUTE when put together with a little effort and creativity.
For this look, I started with these super fun Adidas track pants I originally bought for my boyfriend, then immediately kidnapped for my own use, haha. I love the loose fit & straight leg. I paired them with my favorite crop top. This little red tee is SO comfortable and I love how the "Champagne" graphic mimics the Coca Cola logo. Topped the look off with my best over sized grandpa sweater & this retro denim shearling coat. Threw on my Superstars (added the plaid laces for even more fun) and grabbed my metallic gold backpack and hit the streets in comfort and style.

Chic, Fashion-Forward Pieces That Are Still Work Appropriate

Image
I'm BACK! And just in time for some fall style insight, too. I recently started a new office job that actually has a pretty lax dress code. My inner (mostly outer) fashion girl was SCREAMING with delight!  "A great job, with health insurance, AND I can wear what I want?!".  But, with that kind of freedom, comes responsibility. You see, when they say "wear what you want", they mean as long as it's still appropriate for the office. i.e. - no mid drifts, no booty shorts, no mini skirts. So, for my own sake, and yours - I've complied the following little listicle of super chic (and super affordable), pieces for fall that will have you excited to get dressed for work in the morning. Imagine that. 1. Not Your Fathers Blazer   H&M - $129 (okay - this one isn't exactly "affordable" but it was so cute!) The key to making any outfit work for the office is a well-fitted blazer. These guys are making a BIG comeback this se...

Sneakers For The Girls Who DON'T Wear Sneakers

Image
A couple of posts ago, I talked about being a sneakerhead and listed my favorite drops of 2017 so far. I know that, like myself, there are tons of girls out there that love sneakers and are always keeping their eyes peeled for the latest, coolest releases.  But I got to thinking ... what about the girls who don't usually wear sneakers? The girls who only throw on trainers when they're going to the gym. I'm always badgering my girlfriends to ditch the boots & flats and try on some kicks, but never really thought to help them find styles they'd like and actually want to wear. So here we go, my curated list of sneakers for the non-sneakerhead girl. 10 pairs that'll surely spark some interest in all you girly girls out there! 1 - Adidas - EQT 91/16 Racing Sneaker - $120 I literally could not think of a more girly sneaker if I tried. These super cute Adidas are perfect for warmer weather & for those who typically eschew socks, even with closed toe shoes...

Denim on Denim on Denim

Over the  last few years, there's been a rise and a shift in the way we as a society wear denim. No longer are we confined to just a basic pair of jeans, or a denim jacket.
