Style Files My real-life OOTDs.

All of these outfits are from January, before I got sick with a nasty bug, worked through Valentine’s Day at the flower shop, and recovered from my annual holiday hangover (#floristlife). The last couple of weeks looked something like this: dirty hair; bare face (with a quick swipe of this complexion rescue tinted moisturizer because my SPF game never takes a vacation); same pants for five days in a row; sneakers — these knit ‘flex appeal’ sneakers are insanely comfortable if you’re on your feet all day — and oversized sweaters. You’re welcome for sparing you the photographic evidence.

Speaking of pants: at this point, I may as well throw out all my jeans besides these performance denim leggings; they’re all I wear these days! I have them in three colors: dark indigo, mid-indigo and black.  I bought them in the petite fit for the perfect ankle length (I’m 5’4″ for reference) and went up one waist size from what I typically wear in their “regular” skinny jeans for a little extra room through the waist and hips. They sit comfortably on my waist — not too high, not too low — and hold their shape all day with lots of flexible stretch. I give ’em 5 stars!
