Getting Comfy

I don’t know about all of you, but I have been wearing the same few items in my closet for the last three weeks or so. Loose-fitting, elastic waistbands, soft cotton, lots of stretch. Since we’ll probably still be in lock down for the next couple months my eye has been looking for some more comfy clothing that I can wear. Here are some of my top picks…

Just because we’re stuck inside doesn’t mean we can’t look cute while feeling 100% comfortable.

I hope all of you are well and safe through this crazy time. I’m going to really try to keep posting regularly to help distract and entertain you all while we get through this!

Trend Alert- The Denim Dress

I love nothing more than a trend that lasts over time. Right now denim dresses are all the rage! They are just such a classic look that I wouldn't even feel bad about spending a little more on one as I know this is a look that I could wear throughout the changing of seasons...and it will still be in style for years to come. Here are some of my favorites:

What I love most about denim dresses is that you can dress them up or dress them down. Wear them for work or for play. They are just so versatile. Who says that everyone needs a great pair of jeans? I think every gal needs a denim dress in their closet!

I'd love to know what style of denim dress is your favorite and how you'd wear it.

Trend Alert: Wide Leg Pants

I don't know how you guys feel, but I'm absolutely loving this wide leg pants trend. As you all know, I am way more into dresses than pants...but I can definitely see myself filling my closet with this look. It almost reminds me of the palazzo pants phase that took over my 8th grade. Ahhh, memories. Anyway, here are some of my faves---

'70s Vibes

I never wear anything high waisted, bell bottomed, or even pants for that matter! However, when I came across these adorable bell bottoms this past week at Lord & Taylor I had to pick them up. They are so super comfy and have some great stretch to them.

With the rain on the way I thought an extra long walk with my pup this morning was necessary. Gotta tire the little guy out while I can as he'll be spending much of the weekend indoors. So a stroll to the south side of Williamsburg was on the agenda.

What do you all think of bell bottom pants making a comeback? I'm kind of in love with '70s fashion at the moment (maybe it's all of those old episodes of Three's Company I have been watching lately)...so I say bring them on! I mean you can't wear skinny jeans all the time. Right?

While we were out we stopped by Meyer's Bageri for some breakfast. My husband opted for the ham and cheese danish, while I satisfied my sweet tooth with a raspberry danish. YUM!!! We were both in heaven with these treats!

Here's to a wonderful weekend...no matter how soggy and wet it is!
