Everyday Weekend Wear: What I Live In

Leggings and v-neck tee outfit on the Chicago River

I love getting dressed up, but what I live in 75% of the time is leggings and a v-neck tee.  On the weekends when I am out running errands I like to be comfortable and this is one of the most comfortable outfits that I own.  I recently bought these leggings and they are the best.  First of all, I love the price.  You can basically get two for the price of one.  Second, they are really great quality.  They wear really nice and wash up great.  You can’t beat it!

These Madewell tee’s are part of my basic wardrobe and they are my favs!  I have them in a few different colors and different sizes.  I wear the size small when I want a more fitted, cleaner look and I wear a medium when I want a billowed, more casual look.  They are easy to throw on with leggings or jeans.  I have to admit I might own three of these tees alone in white (I love a good white tee!).

Kurt and I took these pictures a couple of weeks ago when it was just starting to get warm in Chicago.  You never know what kind of weather you will get here in the Windy City, so when its a nice day-you take full advantage of it!  We took Addie down to the river walk and it was my first time down there.  I was in awe!  You see the city from a completely different perspective and its just beautiful.  And not to mention Addie loved it as well.  But then again she is always up for a long walk, wherever we might be going.  If you live in Chicago or are visiting- its a must see!

    I think your dog might be the cutest accessory possible!

    I’m always looking for an alternative to pricey Lululemon leggings, good to know there are tried and true alternatives that are a little more affordable.

      That’s exactly why I tried these leggings! I was sick of over paying at Lululemon. I actually prefer these more. Thanks for reading!

I’m always taking screenshots when I see cute outfits I like and I save them to a folder. This one got saved to ‘fall outfit ideas’. And when I’m feeling stumped and don’t know what to wear I scroll thru my folder to get some inspiration. It’s helped so much!

Comment ‘links’ and I will send you the details on this cardigan, my go to button down and the flats that I could walk miles in. Just got this new pair of denim and I am already loving them- the length is perfect 👌🏻
