Trust me when I say I normally look like dirt at home. My poor husband is lucky if he gets a glimpse of me when I walk in the door from work before I’m right back into mismatched sweatpants and a tee. I have this thing about wasting good outfits when I know I won’t be “seen”. Like who do I think I am? I also rarely shop for casual wear because I’d much rather spend money on clothes I’ll be seen in. Do you guys hear me right now? I sound like the paparazzi follow me around waiting to sell my photo to US Weekly. Get a grip, Amy. We actually do leave the house on the weekends and I almost always end up taking way too long to get out the door simply because I have nothing to wear. Chris really hates it when I say that by the way. I seriously feel that way though and end up either looking like I’m trying too hard or I just rolled out of bed. So today during nap time I spent some time combing through my closet and putting together some new go-to looks for casual weekend outings. Yes, this is how I spend my two hours of freedom. You’re welcome. Also, just to note the majority of the athletic wear pictured below has never actually made it to the gym. I promise I’ll get my $20 insurance rebate for going 12 times a month starting next month, Babe!

Sweater: Free People Lover Rib Thermal (same as the burnt orange one I wore in the Fall Sneak Peek at Evereve only this time I tied it in the back as shown in the bottom image. You know, the one that shows off the half assed curl job I did on the back of my hair. I celebrated my birthday a little too hard this weekend so this is the best you are going to get.)

Joggers: Gap – I love a good jogger pant! These ones are sold out, but I found a similar pair from Athleta.

Sneakers: New Balance – similar here or here. (Fashion sneakers are on the top of the list for fall trends so stock up, Ladies!)

Watch: Michael Kors ‘Bradshaw’

Denim: Gap

Coatigan: French Connection – old, similar here or here

Sneakers: Nike – old, similar here, here, or here

Yoga Pants: Lululemon – old, similar here or cropped here 

Black Tee: Peyton Jensen from Evereve

Military Vest: Nordstrom Rack – old, similar here (you’ve seen me wear this a lot already. It’s a staple.)

Yoga Pants: Athleta

Sneakers: New Balance – similar here

Sweater: Nordstrom Rack – old, similar tunic style here for only $29.99. (A thin sweater is a great alternative to a hoodie)

Tank: GapFit Breathe Racerback

Yoga Pants: Calvin Klein Performance – old, similar print here, also love these floral print ones

Sneakers: Superga from Target (I got mine on clearance in the store for $20 but they have them online for $29.99. A MAJOR steal compared to the $98 price tag at Nordstroms – I’m sorry, come again?)

Tunic: Nordstrom – old, also like this one with the open back or this one with the tie front

Leggings: LuLaRoe (I own two pair of LLR leggings now and they are on repeat nightly.)

Sneakers: Stan Smith (they were described on the Today Show recently as the Holy Grail of Fashion Sneakers, but we already knew that.)

Tee: Lululemon Love Tee(I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect v-neck tee for a while and this is it, ya’ll! It’s the perfect length and stretch. I want it in every color.)

Flannel: Nordstrom – old, but flannels are everywhere now. Here are some prints I like from Rails, Lucky Brand, Madewell, and JCrew

Faux Leather Leggings: old, similar here (I like that the leather is just on the side panels. It keeps them more on the casual side.)

Sneakers: See above. Here are some other styles I’m loving for fall: New Balance in a deep turquoise, TOMS ‘Del Rey’ Sneaker, and Nike ‘Juvenate’ Sneaker in B&W Floral.

Belly Pooch: Courtesy of two kids that love their daddy more than the one who birthed them. Sold as a pair. Price is negotiable.

I’m taking requests. What’s a staple item you want to see styled next?
