At a certain point in the last few years, comfort became key. Trends have played a part in this, with looks like athleisure, casual footwear, and oversized tops/dresses being in style. Another factor is that I no longer have to dress up for an office setting. The problem with all of this, is that, like most things in life, I managed to take things to an extreme. Somewhere along the way, I’ve lost both my motivation to dress up, and, well, my figure!
My new mission is to find once again find a balance between casual cozy and an elevated look. There has to be a way to blend my dressier style with a balanced comfort, right? With a new season, comes new inspiration and this look is a step in the right direction. This badass new Western belt from ASOS with some high waisted jeans gave me the ability to *shocked face emoji* find my waistline again! Loved matching this all black ensemble with this New Look belted coat that was only $80 CAD from ASOS. Can already tell that I’ll be re-wearing both of these a ton! Anyway, I feel like I wanted to say this out loud so that you guys can help keep me accountable. If it’s all giant sweaters and leggings in a row, maybe remind me of this post so that I can step my game up again. Cool? Cool! Knew I could count on you all 🙂
