Make every day chic, no work necessary!

It's a lousy day out: rain, snow, sleet--you name it! Or maybe it's perfectly nice out but you were up late studying. The point is, you don't feel like making an effort and putting on a cute smock-top or squeezing into your tight jeans. Your solution: sweatpants. I know, we all have those days. My advice? Steer clear from the sweatpants/messy-bun look. Looking cute can be effortless, you know! Taking a "sweatpants day" can really affect your attitude for the whole entire day. It may sound superficial, but looking like a bum makes you feel like a bum. Confidence is key! Instead of grabbing that sweatshirt, just put on a soft tee-shirt and a cardigan. You can be comfortable and still be chic. It doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing sort of deal where you either look super cute, or look like you just rolled out of bed.

P.S.  A great, chic "comfy-day" item? Long, cozy, wrap sweaters (not too long, not below the knee or else you'll look like you're wearing a blanket!) They're warm and cuddly and look great with jeans, leggings--you name it!
