Style Me Friday..Sweatpants and High Heels

I missed last week because the weather was nasty and I couldn’t get outside to take pictures but I’m back this week rocking sweatpants and high heels!

Style Me Frida 301

These pants are proof that trends are cyclical. I bought these pants in 2000. They came with a track jacket that had Bebe across the back. I thought it was the flyest set ever. However in the span of 13 years and endless amounts of moving the jacket got lost in the shuffle, however the pants have been loyal along the journey. I actually use them as my house pants and if they didn’t have paint stains on them I would probably rock them outside but in their current state they are only good for Style Me Friday photos taken in my backyard!! The jacket is equally as old. I think I purchased it with my first paycheck at my first real job…AHHHHH..that’s my slide down the rabbit hole memory lane!

Look Back at it….Look Back at it

The pants even have a little zipper on the side to turn them into more of a bootcut..Yes, my feet are ashy

What I Wore

Last week was Mid Winter Break. My son was out of school, and it was rainy and cold so I stayed close to home. Thursday, I ventured out to Fab’rik boutique in Buckhead for the debut of CoCo Rae Cosmetics Atlanta Tastemaker  S/S nail collection. Awhile back I posted that I was one of the bloggers selected to have their own color in the collection. The preview party was awesome. I’ll do a detailed post later in the week.

I wore:

Style Me Friday- Daytime Sparkle

I’m linking up with Eboni today for Style Me Friday. This week the challenge was making sparkle work for daytime. I didn’t go too literal on this one, but I did try to capture the look. So while I didn’t have a striped shirt I did make sure to pair my sequins pants with a printed top. No sandals because its too cold and they are all packed away so I opted to go with a nude pump.

I don’t really think I killed it this week but at least I got to wear my pants that I bought in the kids section at Target!! Make sure to check out the other looks over on Eboni’s blog.
