I wore this outfit last weekend to a cute "Mommy and me" photo session we did. It gave me flexibility to move around to take photos but still look somewhat put together. I did not own any sneakers for years, other than the ones I run in, but I have thoroughly enjoyed this pair of slip ons. Now that regular sneakers are becoming accepted as fashionable I may have to invest in another pair for wear other than running. Any suggestions?
 
Today is my Friday and beginning Friday and through the weekend we've got lots of plans. It's going to be  a busy weekend so I'll keep this short and get moving.

We were back into a warming trend last week but it was decent enough Wednesday evening to add the utility vest as a layer. I think it helps make my track pants a little more fall like. This is an outfit that came together because I saw the vest and pants hanging on the clothes line drying together. Have you ever made an outfit from random pieces hanging on your line or lying in the laundery basket together? Maybe that would be a fun challenge sometime- just pull random pieces from the laundry that you didn't originally wear together and create an outfit.

Aztec take two



 
Shirt- Target option option
pants- Macys option
shoes- Payless option option
necklace- Belk's
Worn June 11, 2014
 
I wore this outfit on travel day of my trip with the church youth group. I got tons of compliments from the kids, boys and girls, on these pants. They were a hit. And they are super comfortable for wearing on a long ride.
 
I wore the pants before with my sneakers, but this time I went with sandals. I wish these sandals came in a multitude of colors too- I'd buy every one. I've worn them on two vacations trips now and done tons of walking in them- no blisters, no aching feet. They are from the Payless comfort plus line and hold up to their name.
 
What's your favorite travel attire?

Aztec track pants





Shirt- Forever21 option option option
shoes- Macys option option
necklace- JCPenney option option

I bought this shirt last week at Forever21 when I had a chance to go to a store. It comes in other colors (cobalt, red) but I cannot find it online. I have been looking for a perforated or open weave piece to add to my wardrobe and this one fit my needs.
 
Now let's talk more about these pants. I bought them on the same trip. I was not trying to create an outfit with the two pieces, but they work together for a sporty chic look. What I was looking for was a pair of "soft pants". When track pants hit the scene, I instantly said "no" to myself. Just one of those pieces that no matter how you wear them, they are still what they are- track pants, and track pants are not an item of fashionable wear (like flip flops- sorry ladies, well talk about that later.) I was not going to go there. But I was growing more interested in a soft flowy pair of pants. About 15 years ago, I had a pair- black with a little flower print- and I wore them ALL THE TIME. I LOVED THEM. So comfortable and easy to dress up or down. So I definitely wanted to get back in on that trend (isn't it funny how trends come around in 10, 15, 20 or even 30  year waves?)
I found some pants that I liked in the juniors department (should I admit that? I'm 40.) The funny thing is I ended up liking the elastic bottom ones that are like track pants more than the others. So here you have it, I'm wearing track pants. And they are so comfortable, I think I'm in pajamas.
