Skinny Jeans
You know the days when you’re too lazy, tired or (fill in the blank) to squeeze into your skinny jeans?
I call them Mondays… But at any rate, this is your go-to pair for looking cool and feeling comfortable.
But I’ll get to that…
The week leading up to Christmas is always kind of a shitshow, no? (Seriously, where does the time go?)
Even for the most seasoned of shoppers, gift-buying during the holidays can be a bit… Intense.
If you’re anything like me, we’re the type of girls who leave their holiday gift shopping until the very last-minute. As a result, I’m usually spending the days leading up to Christmas running around the city, fending off crowds and paying an arm-and-a-leg for overnight shipping.
(And while we’re on the subject, an FYI: Nordstrom and Zappos both have super-fast, free shipping and returns — with guaranteed delivery by Christmas.)
On a recent holiday dash around the city, I stopped into Old Navy to pick up a new pair of their activewear pants/compression leggings. (I wore them last week — they’re my favorite for indoor cycling and outdoor running alike!)
Old Navy is, quite simply, killing it.
We’ve known this and we’ve talked about it, but holy shit. Guys, how am I so late to the game that is the Old Navy Denim Fan Club?
I honestly haven’t taken them off since, which you’ll note in the next few weeks’ of outfit posts. The darker hue slenderizes every body type and easily adds a dash of laid-back luxe to any look… Or every look, I suppose, in my case.
The best part is that they don’t fit like starchy jeans, but they also don’t look like painted-on leggings. The bit of stretch makes them ideal for holiday travel, which I have a lot of coming up here in the next few weeks.
More on that to come — for now, I’ve got to finish shopping!
