I’m trying to make more of an effort this year to get dressed (read: not just change from sweat pants to clean yoga pants). I’ve noticed that when I get ready, even if it’s just throwing on a pair of jeans and a tee and putting on a little mascara after washing my face, I not only feel more ready for the day, but I also feel better about myself. Four days a week may not seem like a lot, but that’s the weekly “get dressed” goal I’ve set for myself!
This weather is so dark and gross that I’ve noticed it’s even harder to want to change out of my cozy sweats and yoga pants, so I try to make the easiest possible go-to outfits possible that are still comfortable, but look much more put together. The final caveat is that since I’m still nursing, and I baby wear so often, I need something that gives Harrison easy access to breastfeed.
So, the basic equation for my new go-to outfit is this: some type of headware + a big comfy sweater + a tank dress (of which I have about 12, it’s kind of ridiculous) + tights / leggings + boots + these SmartTech gloves.
I used to just add whatever gloves I could find in our coat closet, but since I’m on my phone so much for personal and business use, I realized taking my gloves off every 5 seconds to answer the phone or construct a new email to an electrician was getting old, fast. I love that these texting gloves aren’t visually obtrusive, so they go with everything and are really comfortable and the perfect weight for the weather. The only downside is that since they’re so neutral, my hubby loves to “borrow” them!
I do want to add in more accessories, but scarves and necklaces and earrings are really hard for me to pull off while wearing H, since he’s so grabby! I’m hoping I’ll be able to start back-carrying him more often and then will be able to add a little more pizzaz. Overall, I think it looks a little better than what I sleep in, right? 😉
So tell me – what’s your go-to outfit equation?

Sadly, my go-to is not nearly so cute! I live in those Target long and lean tanks, jeans and sweatshirt. Occasionally when I'm feeling a bit spunky I have a couple button-ups or a chunky sweater but let's face it… buttons get old after about the millionth nursing session of on-off-on-off the boob and I cannot seem to keep the velcro from my Grovia diapers from snagging on my sweater at every. single. diaper. change!
You look amazing! I love your style. So comfy and cozy! Super cute top. Sadly I'm one of those yoga pant mom's and I'm OK with that! Lol
I LOVE that sweater. You are so gorgeous! I'm a fan of fellow moms who definitely make an effort to wear more than yoga pants or the dreaded mom jeans. 😀

Very cute and I love that sweater.
I'd say it's cuter, unless you are wearing super cute pj's to bed!
I love your sweater and boots! Super cute. Sadly I don't get dressed up as much as I should. I'm working on that.:)
Wow! Such a well put together and utterly cute outfit!
I really like the coat! I have noticed the oversized comfy sweater/coat look seems to be fashionable. I like the look. God bless! 🙂
So cute…I am all about comfort…for me it isn't what I am wearing…but if I get up and put makeup on…then I usually am very productive…even if I am wearing yoga pants!
Cute! I wear so much black but I love it!
Super cute. I love long over-sized sweaters.
I love that sweater! It's so versatile!
i love your boots.
This is an adorable outfit! I work from home and stay with my toddler, so I'm all about something comfortable that I can move around in: jeans, sweatshirts, boots. I'll switch the sweatshirt for a sweater (fancy!) when we go out to the store, but overall, I really need to update my wardrobe. Love this!
Love your outfit! Awesome sweater. I've been trying to up my style this year. Wearing more layers…
My favorite right now is cable knit sweaters with a pretty dress shirt.
So cute! I love that sweater. You look adorable!
love the cardigan… cute comfy and stylish ;o)
I love the style. I don't get to dress up very often anymore. I used to love to wear big heels!
I love that sweater! I'm trying to add more accessories, too, but then that's more for the baby to pull 🙂
Very pretty. Love your style. I wish I can wear this. Maybe when I will lose weight:)
My go to outfit is jeans, a graphic tee and cute shoes.
I love your sweater.
I love your outfit and that head band. I want. Thanks for the inspo
