Jack Frost Nipping At Your Nose!

If you, like me, spend a lot of time at home - not working in an office but in your house, taking walks around the neighborhood, doing some yard work or going to the gym, you face a dilemma of what to wear and not look like a hobo. I can look like a derelict in less time than it takes to brush your teeth!


The weather and time of year has a huge influence on what to wear "around the house" and with the cooler weather, it is actually easier to dress nicely.

Boyfriend jeans are great because they're roomy and fit most venues. You can wear them with knee boots or garden wellies or sneakers or flats. You can roll them up or wear them down. See what I mean? Great!



Tee shirts under something can be warm and easy. Flannel shirts over your tee, a cardigan over a tee or, like Sheldon on "The Big Bang Theory" a long sleeved tee under a short sleeve tee is a fun layering style.

A collared shirt under a nice sweatshirt is a good look and you can dress it up or not.

Turtleneck shirts or sweaters are really warm, thermal shirts layered under a vest, and cute hoodies are such a nice look and will keep you toasty.


Corduroy pants are different than denim and usually warmer. Thermal long undies will keep away the chill. And sweat pants are, of course, an option. I personally do not like the ones with elastic ankles...too much like gym wear. But I do love Target's sweatpants. They look like slacks and several styles have pockets. I so love pockets in my clothes!







And remember that if you dress for the weather, you won't have to run your heat as much and ... the money you save could end up being shopping money!


Until next week, I shall remain,

Stylistically yours,

Sooz
