OOTD ~ It is possible to "Dress Up" Yoga Pants

 


~ OOTD ~
I am wearing Yoga pants today...
they are comfy and they stretch when I move.

~ Jobs Today ~

Grocery Shopping
Laundry
Tidying up The Humble Bungalow 
Hair Appointment
Cleaning Out cupboards

The day ahead also has a few opportunities to put myself "out there"...

I don't want to look uber casual yet I don't feel like changing my clothes to go out.


Popped on my big pearl necklace
will add my black leather loafers...
put on bright red lippy.


Grab my Black Coach Bag and head out to the shops.

Do you wear Yoga pants?
Are you opposed to wearing them in fear of being cited by the Fashion Police?

How do you style them so they look a wee bit more polished?

I think you did it just right Leslie! Love your pearls and your bright red lippy. I've never worn bright red lippy. I think you have to be an expert at putting it on to wear it.

I know I've said it before, but I just love your hair! It looks great and suits you so well, in my opinion. I was hoping you'd show the loafer you were wearing. I do wear yoga pants - all the time. But I have no great hints or tips on how to wear them. They're comfortable and I feel they look just fine, so I'm not troubled nor feel like I need to dress them up some way. Possibly it's a sign of my age(?)! Comfort rules in many ways! Your roses are really beautiful.

Those white roses are gorgeous.

I do not wear workout wear in public unless I'm working out, but I realize I'm in the minority these days! With your fabulous accessorizing (right down to your red lippy!), I bet 99% of folks didn't realize you had yoga pants on. Well done!

Lorrie said...

I'll echo Susan's comment about you hitting it just right! Love white - so many wonderful shades of it!

Patricia said...

I am sure you looked quite gorgeous in your outfit, the pearls, red lippy and the bag carry the day. While I wear slim stretch pants, I have never bought yoga pants; tried them on a few times but do not like the way they expose the leg shape. I must be the only person on the planet not wearing them! Love how you do white - the pearls, the roses, and everything else. Carry on :)

You look great. Yes, I do the same. Wear the yoga pants and then top it with something large that covers my front and back. But always add some stylish stuff to it. so I'm right with you. Yes, I'd like to see your loafers also. Love the look.

Joni James said...

Yes to the yoga pants in black only. I wear long button downs with them.

I like the Italian red lipsticks from Miss Pupa. They have several shades which I like and the gloss is lighter but lasts and the lipstick is very deeply pigmented. No expertise required at all :-))

Thank you Jeannine...my hairdresser will appreciate your comment! The loafers are very casual...I have two pairs one in a blue and one in black. Both are made in Europe and are leather with perforated flaps on the toe area. I never thought to snap a photo...

The roses are putting on a spectacular display right now...perhaps the last gasp before winter sets in!

You have so many lovely options in your wardrobe...I think accessories really make a difference especially if one is wearing less expensive clothing!

hostess of the humble bungalow said...

Think that whites are a great choice when one has a small wardrobe too!

I wear longer tops with Yoga pants and they are not as clingy or revealing as leggings! Stretch pants or ponte pants are a great option too. Black and white are mainstays in my minimal wardrobe.

I will try and snap a picture of the loafers...I never even thought about taking a picture! You accessorize with a flair and have so many fun necklaces and bracelets.

I wear longer tops and tunics with Yoga pants always!!!
