One of my “comfy” outfits
It was Saturday, it was cold and snowy, and I needed to tackle the grocery store. My preference was to just stay in my pjs. So, what’s wrong with comfy? Nothing, if you just use a little common sense. Here’s an example of how I do it.
Fleece tunic – This top is so soft, and I love the funnel neck. It’s a great length for my age, since I don’t want everything hanging out. (For you younger ladies, you might want to go a little shorter.) American Apparel (downtown Chicago. Check them out online — they have tights in just about every color of the rainbow.)
Skinny jeans — These are SO comfortable. They are stretch denim, but don’t have any zippers or pockets to cause a lot of lumps and bumps. And here’s my big secret — they have an elastic waist! (I once told my daughter that if I ever even go near the elastic waist pants, she should shoot me dead — right here, right now! But these pants are my exception.) Daisy Fuentes at Kohl’s.
Tip: The secret to buying skinny jeans is to make sure the calves aren’t too tight. If you have fuller calves or thighs, try straight-leg jeans instead.
Boots – I love this pair, because they are very loose in the leg, making it really easy to wear them with jeans or heavy socks. Mid-calf boots are also popular and are really cute with leggings or skinny jeans.
Do any of you have any favorites for those “comfy” days? Please feel free to comment.

Returning to this snowstorm means that an ear-covering hat (maybe cloche style?) is at the top of my list right now.
Love it Sara! This is my favorite comfy outfit too + a scarf 🙂
