What Mama Wants: Plus size fit-gear

Now that the weather has turned nicer I'm finding myself craving some new gear for walking, running, playing tennis with the hubs and riding bikes with the kiddos. I'm doing 2 runs this summer - one for Prostate Cancer in June and a Mud-run Obstacle course in August - so I try and "train" a bit for each one.

Outfit of Secrets

I felt super mysterious writing that title out... unfortunately this outfit is not nearly as exciting as that title might make it seem. Right now I am all about unexpected details and being able to wear a piece of clothing in more ways than might have been intended when it was made. At first glance this seems like a basic black dress pant and sweater outfit, however, this sweater has a great gold zipper detail down the back which I love. These pants look like simple wide leg dress pants - however, they are actually yoga pants that I purchased almost ten years ago from Joe Fresh, which have such great stretch and staying power that I actually have worn them countless times, even wearing them through both of my pregnancies. And last, these smoking slipper style flats are actually less slipper-style than they are just... well... slippers. But they have a rubber sole, and they're so so so comfortable that I don't feel badly about wearing them outside.
