lazy legging lovin'

this was my lazy look for the first day of the new year! after a night of celebrating & waking up when half of the day was already finished i was looking for a simple, comfortable, fashionable look to go out with my honey. this was what i came up with! and i have to admit it felt fabulous. take a look!

 

 

outfit details: chambray [forever 21] floral top [buckle] black legging [wet seal] scarf [new york & company] boots [steve madden] bracelets [forever 21] crossbody bag [michael kors] lip color [MAC coral bliss] nail color [sinful colors timbleberry]

outfit chat: i love leggings with all of my heart! i wear them several times a week [i have too many pairs] & i think that is because they make an outfit feel simple, flirty, relaxed, & can throw in a pattern to really add to the look you are trying to achieve. leggings can be best paired with long loose button ups or sweaters, cardigans, or blazers. just to name a few. the options really are endless, which is why i plan to do several posts showing a few different uses. this simple pair helped with the relaxed, somewhat grungy, look i was going for. i am not a huge fan of "grunge" at all so this is my version. the unbuttoned chambray went fabulously with the look & paired with a floral top i was able to make the outfit look feminine. fun, right? the scarf & boots topped off the wintery look i was needing on this freezing cold january day, as well as allowed for good color additions to the outfit! whenever i am feeling the relaxed look i find the top knot my first choice in hairstyle for the day. and since we were going out on the town i had to class up the outfit with my Michael Kors crossbody bag. which is my most favorite possession by the way! now go make sure your closet owns a pair of this fun & flirty substitute for pants & put them to good use!
