Since most of today was spent camped out on my living room floor with my laptop in front of me, I was all about comfort. But even when I'm working at home with no one around, I like to at least feel pulled together. So, this is what I would call my big girl sweats: soft (and over-sized) sweatshirt, soft (and over-sized) scarf, soft (and over-sized) chinos.
I did have to go to work this evening, so I put on a pair of boots, a belt and a drapey cardigan in place of the sweatshirt. It was still casual, but more work appropriate.
But once I walked through the front door after work, I ran straight upstairs and slipped into my zebra striped flannel PJ's. And now I'm going to watch ER on DVD and eat an ICS.*
Sweatshirt: free from work - Scarf: H&M, $10 - Chinos: Target, $6 - Mocs: Minnetonka, $37
*ICS = Ice Cream Sandwich - I was on an acronym roll :)
I'm totally impressed that you still look put together while at home - I never look half as good as this! But you look totally chic :)
ReplyDeleteI love to be comfy chic too! I hate it when I feel too sloppy, even at home!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same as you, I like feeling pulled together no matter what.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could eat and ICS now :(
How perfect : ) When I am working from home I am PAJAMA'd out all the way :). Sometimes I do feel ashamed when my son comes home from school at 3:30, but don't worry. That only lasts for 10 seconds : )
ReplyDeleteVisiting from God's favorite shoes this morning!

ReplyDeletecute scarf and sweater!
ReplyDeleteHow great you look girl, you should be here in Paris for the fashion week!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what a scarf and chinos can do for a sweatshirt. You look great!
ReplyDeleteI want that sweatshirt so bad!
ReplyDeleteYou totally inspired me with this look. I was dressed for work/school but was feeling very uninspired and unhappy with my choice. I took one look at your weekend wear, turned by butt back around and restyled my outfit in 2 min. and came away with something much more fun and me- thanks.
ReplyDeletei'm always so much more productive at home if i get up and get semi-dressed. i have outfits like this that i call "loungies"--not quite clothes, not quite jammies, but perfect for lounging and working around the house.
ReplyDeleteLooks gloriously comfy, and that scarf is the perfect touch of unstudied chic!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely like the look. Way more pulled together than I would have been.
ReplyDeletelol- you should see my "at home " look- the bf's sweats and trust me- i look like a sloppy mess!! good for you!! i wish i could stay pulled togther on my down time.
ReplyDeletelove this look- i was thinking today how i needed a pair pf moccasins!
p.s- thanks for the sweet comment :)
I'm rather quite liking your scarf/sweatshirt combo! Comfy-chic at its finest.
ReplyDeleteVery chic sweats!
ReplyDeleteI love that this outfit is cozy and put together at the same time.
ReplyDeleteoh so comfy, I like this for casual pulled together.
ReplyDeleteThis is so much cuter than my usual "at home" outfit. You look so comfy and sweet! :)

P.S. I'm giving away a clutch at my blog, if you'd like to enter! :)
Kyla, I love this, and I love how that scarf just completely amps up an otherwise simple outfit. Great casual day look!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of rolling up the sleeves of a sweatshirt. It makes you look totally chic!
