Wow. Today is definitely one of those days when no amount of coffee can get me into the swing of things. The overcast sky and cold air have encouraged me to have a lazy and unproductive afternoon.
As far as lounge apparel goes, I am probably the worst. This is really not a good thing, especially in a dorm environment, which requires me to use my bed for just about everything I do - studying, lounging, eating, and of course napping/sleeping.
About two weeks into college, I sold my soul to J. Crew sweatpants. I was hesitant, but I am here to tell all that they are absolutely wonderful. I wear them all the time when I'm hanging out in my room, doing laundry, etc. Though I most definitely have not worked up the courage to wear them in the eyes of the public, I have grown to accept the functionality and comfort that they provide! Plus, they are actually long enough for my legs, which never happens, and run true to size.
I've learned that dressing for class or the typical daily activities I engage in every day is just not the ideal time to put my best shoe forward (literally). The UVa campus is relatively small, but I still have to do a lot of walking every day! I recently learned that the average college student walks 5 miles a day - and from my experience this is pretty accurate. Five miles in my cutest pair of flats just isn't going to happen.
This outfit is very typical of something I would wear on a day to day basis! Cute, yet cozy (necessary in lecture halls) and comfy (feeling uncomfortable without being able to change for 5+ hours is the worst).
Side note: I totally wish I could have Warby Parker glasses (they are all SO cute), but my glasses prescription is wacky. I wear progressive lenses, and only a few name brands can accommodate for that so far - though word on the street is that WP will soon be able to jump on this wagon, I wear these Ray Bans (which I still love a lot).
What's your favorite cozy/comfy piece?
