Day 7 :: Wow! Today's high is going to reach only 49°F. I might still venture out to crunch through the leaves + soak up some sunshine. Afterward, this outfit has just the cozy feel I want on a stay-at-home Sunday.
I feel like I've only scratched the surface when it comes to the ways I could wear these two pieces. I could have styled them up a whole lot more, but these looks are a pretty good representation of how I dress. I like to keep things simple + feel like I can switch things up easily with the switch of a pair of shoes.

This bonus look is a good example of that. Wearing flats rather than trainers or Birks elevates this look just a bit. I imagine wearing this for a morning of work in a coffee shop...post Covid.
These vintage army pants are just another example of how one item can be super casual when worn with a white muscle tank + sandals...and then about as dressy as I need to be when worn with a white button down (or cashmere pullover) + flats. Our clothing can often serve us in so many more ways than those for which we give them credit. When I talk about wearing my clothing over + over...I mean it. :)
I can wear this "pajama" top with every one of my fitted pants: jeans, white pants + army pants (not to mention shorts). I can wear it as a layer over a tank, tee or slip dress...or under a cardigan or jacket. Again, the shoes I chose would change the resulting looks as well. The pants are a dreamy summer weight that will get lots of use with tanks, tees + sandals. They will also serve me well as a cozy partner to sweatshirts, sweaters + socks in the cooler months. I might not wear them to work, but I'd wear them to most any other casual setting. It's all in the mindset. I think of these pieces not simply as pajamas, but as a perfectly legitimate top + pants.

Thank you for letting me indulge in this little experiment. It's been really useful in forging a quick, deep love for these pieces. Rather than growing tired of them, I'm looking forward to wearing them again + again for a long, long time. That is a testament to the quality of the pieces, the beauty of the print, the weight of the fabric + the versatility of the style. I am really happy with this addition to my small wardrobe. :)
