Can you guys tell I've been experimenting in different parts of the house with the tripod? Just trying to find spots that work inside when I can't take outside pics. I decided to do today's look in my closet room. Even though these views here and here are my favorite, the spot I'm standing in these photos is where I spend the majority of my time when I'm in my closet room - whether it's using my mirror or picking out jewelry.
As far as this outfit - I've been digging the track pants look, what can I say? I thought it would be perfect for a casual Friday. I don't know why but the gathered ankle on the pants makes all the difference in the world to me vs something like this:
...which I feel can make me look stumpy, perhaps that's just me. Definitely a bit on the trendy side, and since I decided to go with the animal print sweater and zipper back heels, I kept the accessorizing to a minimum. Call me crazy, but I kinda love these pants. A lot.

Thank you! I would love to have it professionally done one day, but I certainly can't complain as is!
DeleteAH this is SO perfect!!! I have a pair of chic sweatpants and I LOVE to wear them! Will totally have to check out the pants you have.
ReplyDeletexo, Lee
Thanks! I was surprised how much I loved this look!
DeleteSuper cute ;)
ReplyDeleteHeyyyy...we have the same Little Black Dress jewelry organizer! Will the coincidences never end?! I just had to expand to a second one because I was doubling up all my necklaces on the first one. Especially since I decided to become an equal opportunity metal employer and wear both gold AND silver. OK, I'll stop now. :)

Haha focus on the outfit, woman! Just kidding, I am happy to be twinsies with you in every way. I have 3 ways to store jewelry and I wonder at what point is it excessive??!
DeleteLove the track pants. I can't wait to wear mine. It's too cold here in Michigan to wear them now.
ReplyDeleteI'm so over the cold! Ugh! Hope you get to wear yours soon!! Thanks for the comment!
DeleteSuch a cute look! I love that sweater. I bought a pair of pants like those a few months ago and I still haven't been brave enough to wear them. I'm such a wimp. :) They look awesome on you!

Oh man, you could totally rock these, I promise! And thank you!
DeleteLove the pants! I am a big fan of this style too. I don't think you look stumpy at all and the v on the sweater enhances your silhouette.

Very sweet, Tracy - thanks so much!
DeleteYou're closet is beautiful! I love the track pant trend, but it's not my usual style at all, so I'm still trying to find the perfect pair that's not going cost an arm and a leg. I definitely agree, gathered track pants are more flattering, I think it's because the gathering helps to create a slimmer line around the ankles.

I was able to score these during their 40% off sale, and I'm glad I did! Even if they had to sit in my closet room for a few weeks!
DeleteI really really love to comment on your outfit, but I'm still trying to get over your closet room! I showed my housemates and they both said WOW. I need a closet room like that in my life.

It's both a blessing and a curse to have this room! But I do love having my own space!
DeleteThanks for the nice note!
I'm not sure I'd wear those pants myself--but I believe you should wear what YOU like. Hey, I still wear flared jeans even though I know they aren't in favor these days. :P I love your dainty necklace!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, they definitely are one of the more 'controversial' pieces in my wardrobe - I'm still not honestly sure why i love them so much, but you're right, I do like them a lot and feel great in them!
DeleteAnd I've got nothing against a good pair of flares!
I also love the gathered ankle, I think it brings the shoe out and gives the pant a better finishing touch.

It's definitely a great way to showcase your heels, too!
DeleteThanks for reading!
Wow I love the contrast between the pants and the shoes. Super lovely top.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I don't know why I automatically reached for this sweater with the pants! It felt right!
DeleteReally like the printed top, such a lovely piece! :)

Thanks, Mica! It's def a fave sweater in my wardrobe!
DeleteI LOVE THIS!! You look amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteTHAT is your closet!!! OMG...it's awesome! I graciously concede the floor to you...you are my closet inspiration from now on. Wow! My mind is so blown I can't even remember what you were wearing...
ReplyDeleteHahaha! This made me smile! And some would say I'm crazy so thanks for not judging!! I also want to add that my husband had a 3 car garage so this was my trade off to that!
DeleteYes, this definitely is a great casual Friday outfit and once again you look great. I need to find a good spot in the house for my pics, even though I enjoy being outdoors and yes, even in the cold and snow - lol. Thanks for sharing and linking up again this weekend at the #WWDParty. Have a fantastic weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou're so sweet, Antoinette! I appreciate your comments!
DeleteAnd yes, indoor spots are definitely hard. I'm not sure I'm satisfied with my locations this weekend, but it's fun to experiment!
Hi Carylee,
ReplyDeleteThe pointed heels kept the whole outfit sexy!
Cheers,

I definitely agree! I love the silouette of the pants with the heels! Thank you!
DeleteI love the gathered ankle - and you're right, it cleans up the look for me too! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anna! I am excited to wear them again!
