Oversized

I bought this cardigan a few years ago from our local Giant Tiger. It was a "cheap and cheerful" add to my winter wardrobe and has held up amazingly well.
 

Comfor-tea

I try my best to dress "well" most days. Left to my own devices, and no blog to be responsible to I would probably live in sweat-pants. And if that's your life- no shame, but I know me, and I know that if I allow myself to start by not dressing well, then I won't shower, won't take care of myself, etc etc. So, most days I dress as a way to get myself going.

That said - there are times when you just need to be comfortable. We had some early snow here in South Ontario and November is typically grey and cold day in and day out so when the weather really affects your mood like it does me I had a day where I needed to stay home, drink tea, play my piano, and just be comfortable.

And please believe me when I tell you - it isn't easy to post an entire post with these pics. Hair in a ponytail? No makeup? Yikes! But this is what comfortable looks like!

I love these "studded" leggings I got from Torrid last year. They're soooo comfortable, but they don't look sloppy like some of my sweats do. My socks are from Muskoka BearWear, which is a great Canadian owned/operated/manufactured company out of Gravenhurst and Bracebridge in North Ontario and just a cozy cardi and a super soft tee made for the perfect "outfit" to wear around my house for a day of self-care and quiet.

Hopefully I'll have less "grey days" and more comfort-Tea days instead.

What's your go-to for pure comfort when you need some self-care time?

So 90s

I pretty much always adhere to the rule "If you wore it the first time, you shouldn't wear it the second time" and since stirrup pant leggings, empire waist/spaghetti strap dresses and wild patterns were SO my jam in the 90s, I do try to avoid them when they make a resurgance in the stores.... mostly.

Summer Sunnin

I bought this "dress" probably 2 years ago from one of my fave low-cost stores here in Ontario - Giant Tiger. It said "dress" on the tag, but I have never EVER worn it without leggings underneath.

Belt it out

Sorry I've been MIA babes - I am having a hard time settling into my new work schedule - and sometimes my anxiety gets the better of me.

Fancy?

Actual conversation I had with my Grandmother while wearing this outfit:
Grams: What's wrong with your legs?
Me: Nothing, why?

It's the Endgame

Okay - I'm saying it up front - there are NO spoilers in this post.

Wear it Anyway

Oh friends - let me tell you the story of this dress.

I have owned this for probably almost 15 years. It hasn't seen an awful lot of wear and I'll tell you why. I bought this before the hubs and I got married, and I *thought* then that I was "too fat" to wear this dress. It was something I would wear just around the house, never outside, rarely even if someone was coming by. I was embarrassed by how it showed my tummy (which was nothing then compared to now! LOL), it was tight on my arms, and well - there's a lot of boob going on with this dress.

What Mama Wants

I've posted this tee-tunic on my Instagram before - and it meets one of my many "wants" when it comes to clothing: comfort while still stylish.

Niagara on the Lake

Just recently I went to Niagara on the Lake for a girls weekend with my Mother and sisters.

Leg(ging)s for days

Oh my goodness, #momlife, am I right?

Sometimes I feel like I live in leggings. There are days when getting up and putting on PANTS is just too exhausting to think about, lol.

That day before a shower hair

Ok - so where are my curly haired girls at?

Not a Dress

I was immediately drawn to this top when I saw it in Giant Tiger.... and then I saw the tag that said "Dress"...

Fun-runnin Fundraising

We had kind of a crazy weekend! From babysitting to play dates a yard sale and yard work and then....

Tunic Time

I'll admit that there's not much I love more than a good tunic. I find they're flattering to most body types, they hide a multitude of sins and they can be seriously comfortable.

Do you remember when I posted telling you about Newchic?

Fringe-tastic

Fringe, fringe, fringe!

Sweater-dress and Inspiring Bloggers Link up

I picked up this cute sweater dress (tunic maybe?) from our local consignment store last week.

Leggings for Days

If I have a fall Mom-iform (that's mom uniform for the uninitiated) it's leggings and a tunic. Seriously - it doesn't get much easier than pulling on some good leggings and a nice tunic and just taking the day head on.

Black, Grey & Coral

This past Sunday was our Remembrance Sunday service, and our dance group was giving a dance offering. Since I knew I'd be changing into my dancewear at the church, I needed to wear something simple, easy, and quick to change in and out of.
