HOW TO WEAR LEGGINGS WITH A CARDIGAN

Yesterday, I experienced sticker shock. It is not the first time in my life that I’ve had that feeling, but I wasn’t shopping for a new car, or even strolling down the aisles of the grocery store. I get sticker shock every time I go to either of those places, but this is the first time that I’ve had to sit down for a minute when it came to something for the blog.

Remember when I told you gurls that blogging wasn’t cheap? As your blog grows, so do the expenses. I’ve been looking at an upgrade that would help my blog run smoother, and a couple of my blogger friends are already using this product, so I felt better knowing that it was tried and true. Our blogs are roughly the same size with the same amount of traffic monthly. However, the price that this company quoted me was over 4,000.00 higher per year than what my friends are paying. What the heck?!? Have you ever felt like someone was taking advantage of you? I am giving them the benefit of the doubt, and assuming that they were giving me some kind of wam-bo-jam-bo upgrade that I really didn’t need. So, I sent them a message that said, “are you CRAZY???” Then, I nicely told them what my friends were paying, and that I wanted the same deal they had. I didn’t just fall off turnip truck, and I ain’t got time for that nonsense. Lol!

Today, I intend to just chill. I feel like dressing cozy and comfy and curling up with a good book. That is not going to happen, but that is how I feel. Lol! You have seen me wear this slub v-neck black tank over and over again. I can’t even begin to tell you how much I am liking this tank. It is a cotton-blend, so it feels great on, but it is the relaxed fit that I love. The tank looks great when worn by itself or as a layering piece. I am wearing a size 1 in the tank, and that is the perfect size for me. This comes in several other colors, and I just ordered a bright pink, navy, and sand one tonight. I would have ordered the other colors too, but they were sold out in my size. Lol! There is a 50% off of select items sale going on, and I ended up only paying 10.00 per tank. Don’t wait until your sizes are all sold out, at 10.00 a pop, they won’t last long.

The long Boucle cardigan is cozy and warm. This cardigan is fairly heavy, and it is thicker than the ones that I had on in yesterday’s post. When I ordered this cardigan, I had no idea what “boucle” meant but it must mean textured and fluffy. The only complaint that I have about this sweater is that it has 25% wool, so that means that it has to be hand washed. However, it was so nice that I kept it, and I am thinking about ordering some of the other colors. There are some gorgeous fall colors, and I am especially partial to the green, rust, and camel ones.

I am wearing a pair of Zenergy So Slimming Camo-Print leggings with side pockets. This is my first pair of Zenergy leggings, and I really like them a lot. I don’t know if I am the only one, but I have worn these three days in a row of the mornings when I first wake up. Lol! I yank off my PJs and put on something comfy until it is time to actually get dressed for the day. Did I mention that I liked these a lot??? I actually ordered the Cheetah print, and the cloud print versions also, and they just came in yesterday. I am wearing a size 1 in the leggings, and I love the way that they fit.

Ummm, did you notice that I had on my leopard slippers in some of the photos? Lol! I told you that I wore these leggings in the mornings after I took off my sleepwear. I forgot all about having the slippers on when I went out to take my photos until I was looking at the pics. It was pretty funny, and then I ran inside to grab some “real” shoes. Hahaha! My real shoes are a pair of shoes that I bought last year when I was in Nashville and I was doing a LOT of walking. I needed something to walk in that was comfortable since I was walking on concrete floors. These black slip-on shoes by Vaneli did the trick. I am wearing my usual size 9, and they fit great.
