Skinnies Instead of Leggings + TBB Linkup

Hello there, friends! I’m linking with my besties at The Blended Blog for style day. Confession time: Our theme today is leggings but I sorta kicked my leggings to the curb. I know they are probably the most comfortable item of clothing known to a woman but I just don’t feel like myself most of the time when I wear them out and about. I wear them to the gym all winter long but that’s about it. So I’m trading my leggings for skinnies today for the sake of style today.

Saturday was the hubby’s birthday and since we had been couped up for much of the week due to the rain, we spent the day running around. This was my casual but want to look put together Saturday on the go look.

I almost didn’t wear this because I thought the pattern on the top and sweater clashed a little but I changed my mind that decided he probably had a cool vibe instead.

The question of the day: Why does my hubby always capture these looks when snapping the camera? Why are my feet missing? Just have to laugh….

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you’ll add your post to the link-up today. We love your style!

Enjoy the day, friends!

Be blessed! ~ Carrie

    I'm chuckling at the last caption Carrie. My partner does this all the time! They just don't get it do they about our blogging photos! Laurie xx
    • You think it's a great photo and then...I have no feet. So glad someone else understands.

    Carrie your skinnies look great on you and I love the top with the cardi! I try not to wear leggings too often because I think it's easy to put on weight that way, especially when it's cold outside and all I want to do is snuggle up inside on the couch and eat comfort food. It's been so hot here lately that my leggings have gone into early retirement this year! For me, I like leggings but I have to be careful not to wear them too often. xo, Kellyann

    Carrie where did you get this outfit? I can’t seem to find that info.
    • This is all older things from my closet. Skinnies & top are The Limited {in store before bankruptcy} and the sweater is from Target. Shoes are DSW.

    That's a very me oufit. I adore it. Simple but chic.
    • Thank you you so much, Anna!
  • It's totally a cool vibe. you just always make things look cooler anyways ;)
    • Awww...thank you sweet lady!
  • Love the look! You look great!
  • Ooh what a great cardigan - I love the textural feel that the marled knit gives. And I am with you on leggings vs. skinnies. The skinnies are nearly as comfortable and just as easy to put on, so why not look that little bit more polished?! Especially if it feels more "you".
    • Agree w/skinnies and leggings in the comfort department. I tend to feel frumpy in leggings but I think that's because I haven't found any that I totally love.
  • This is such a classic Carrie outfit! Love that Dale takes your pictures.
