Faux Leather Leggings…I can’t quit you!

Ok, so a while ago I showed two different attempts at wearing these.  I wasn’t sold on either one, but they are SO comfy that I thought I’d try again.  I think I like this look the best, but again…it could be their comfort level that is swaying my thinking 🙂blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-1 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-2 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-3 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-4 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-5 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-6I took the images up top with my tripod and self timer while my parents were watching the Peanut.  Then, my mom got this one of us together when I went to pick her up 🙂 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-7She still loves going up and down stairs! blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-8 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-9 blog Faux Leather Leggings HM Parka Booties-10On me…

Can we just pretend I took a shower?

Ok, good.  Now let’s carry on.  🙂

Ever since starting this blog, I’ve started dressing up a little more than I have since I started working from home (which was 6 years ago).  The Huz is really liking that part 🙂  I’ve always had the other clothes, but kind of fell into a rut.  When you work from home, are a stay at home mom, or in my case both, it can just be easier to stay in your sweats haha.  Most days, I don’t take my shower until later in the day, which means hair in a bun…  All that said, I feel SO much better about myself when I do get out of my sweats and actually put some thought into my clothes.  Even if I don’t make it into the shower haha 🙂

So, I may not have taken a shower, nor put a lot of thought into my outfit, but at least I’m not in my sweats 🙂blog H&M Army coat J Brand Jeans Black Frye Harness Boots-2 blog H&M Army coat J Brand Jeans Black Frye Harness Boots-3Oh, but wait…at least we don’t match!1Maya 103 weeks rain boots vest-1On me…
