WFHW: Joggers

September 28, 2020 by Nikki No Comments

Here’s the next outfit in my Work-From-Home Wardrobe Series where I display the cute outfits I’m wearing while working from home during the coronavirus pandemic.

Joggers are probably THE BEST work-from-home wardrobe piece out there. They’re incredibly comfortable for sitting but can be dressed up for those Zoom video calls. Case in point: these comfy joggers that pair nicely with this pretty Loft blouse. In fact, I think this is my new favorite outfit. Everything about it just works!

Since I didn’t really leave my house the day I wore this outfit, I didn’t put on shoes. But if I had, I would have a lot of options to choose from depending on where I was going and what look I was trying to achieve. A pair of flats (black or a nice statement color) or loafers would be cute for a business casual feel while heels would elevate it into an outfit I could wear out for a drink or two (sigh, I sure miss those days!). If I wanted a more casual look, perhaps to run errands, I would grab my cute new white lace-up sneakers.

Also, I’m wearing my dissent collar earrings inspired by RBG–may her memory be for a blessing–that Nick purchased for me last month.

Another Cropped Sweater

I told you last week about my newest obsession with cropped sweaters and here’s proof: another cropped sweater. I wore it with my “fancy pajama pants” to work and to class because I just wanted to feel cozy and comfortable; I succeeded. I’m not really sure what else to say about it, so just enjoy some photos.

Fancy Pajama Pants

November 12, 2014 by Nikki 4 Comments

Fancy Pajama Pants | NCsquared Life

My friend calls these drapey pants/joggers my “fancy pajama pants” and I can’t argue with her. They are crazy comfortable AND super cute. I love how I can dress them up or down and wear them to work, to school, out shopping, or for movie nights with friends. Seriously, there’s nothing you can’t do in these pants and that’s why I love them.

I wore this outfit to a birthday dinner at an incredibly delicious new Italian restaurant in Durham. My friend, whose birthday we were celebrating, has a knack for finding the best restaurants in town so I love going to eat with her or to any place she recommends. I’m glad I wore my comfy pants because I ate so much yummy, authentic pasta that I thought I was going to burst into little pieces of Italian happiness. I didn’t, though, so that’s good 🙂
