my everyday style: fringe sweater!

- September 19, 2017

What's your biggest challenge in getting dressed each day? I always love to pick out cute outfits and plan them out carefully, but I'll be honest that some days I just get too lazy to get dressed. So instead I will just throw on a ratty old t-shirt and jeans and then call it quits. Since I work at home there are a lot of days that I don't interact much with other adults and since I doubt my kids notice what I am wearing, it seems like too much effort.

That's why I love to have wardrobe formulas on hand that are easy to pick out and easy to throw on so I can avoid the ho-hum outfits. Don't get me wrong, there isn't anything bad about my jeans and a t-shirt combo, it's just that I feel better about myself and usually feel more productive when I actually have an "outfit" on. I find that making these "formulas" as EASY as possible means I'm more likely to go for them when I get out of the shower vs my lazy standbys. Jeans and a sweater is my go-to for fall and winter. It's so easy, it's warm, the sweater can be worn on it's own or with a coat or jacket over top - it's everything good about an outfit. I especially try to keep sweaters on hand that are fun to wear, have a little extra something to them (like this fringe detail, shop it here or here) and of course that are soft and not-itchy so that I can wear them all day with ease. Then I can just throw on a pair of jeans and flats and I am set for the day!

I rounded up some of my other favorite sweaters right now below... who's going to join me hoarding sweaters for the winter like squirrels!?
