Best Women’s Loungewear Pieces

February 19, 2021

Where I live, February is one of the coldest months of the year. Temperatures are often single digits and there is always a chance for snow. My style switches from looking good to staying warm and comfy. I’ve complied my list of best women’s loungewear pieces that I cannot live without. This list has everything you need to keep you comfy and warm, while also stylish this winter.

The Matching Set

This trend has recently taken off during quarantine and I’m here for it. There is no better feeling then having sweatpants and a sweatshirt that match because it helps you look a little more put together. This set that I’m wearing is actually from Victoria’s Secret Pink.. shocking I know. I poked around on their website and was so surprised to see that their signature logo was not plastered all over the clothing. One of the reasons I turned away from Pink was for that reason. I couldn’t stand wearing clothes with the brand in giant glitter but the logo is small and discrete. It helps to make this matching set looking definitely more expensive and almost like something from Aritzia or Urban.

The Perfect Leggings

No matter the season, leggings are always a staple for me. They’re perfect for staying warm and dressing up or down an outfit. I’ll throw on leggings for a workout and even just running errands. I truly believe they are versatile and are the epitome of the athleisure style. Leggings also go great with winter shoes like boots and sneakers, so why wouldn’t you take advantage of this comfy time! My go to legging brand will always be Lululemon. I am probably their Aligns’ biggest fan. I know they’re pricy but let me tell you, they are worth it for how soft they are and they last as long as you take care of them.

Socks Aren’t Just for Warmth

Crew socks have definitely come a long way in the past few years. I personally never wore them until they somehow made a comeback. Whether you’re wearing boots or even sneakers, a crew sock is the perfect accent for any outfit. Obviously you aren’t going to wear them pulled all the way up but I love the look of them scrunched up on top of leggings or just peeking out of my UGGs. I think this is one of the best women’s loungewear trends because you actually get to take advantage of the comfort and coziness of the sock.

Cozy Boots

I know UGGs might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I wouldn’t survive winter without them. They are my go to shoe because I don’t have to put much thought or effort in. Like I mentioned above, I’ve been styling them with a taller sock so the color peeks out at the top. I also just think you can’t go wrong with anything that’s warm and cozy during cold months. My favorite type are the mini ones. I have had the tall and the short, but the mini gives you enough warmth and comfort without losing the definition of you leg.

Bralettes

You probably weren’t expecting to see this on my list for winter but finding a good bralette is essential to loungewear. I cannot tell you how great it is to find a bra that is soft and so comfy for those days you’re just hanging out, literally. Bralettes are my go to with sweatpants and a sweatshirt. We often forget to think of our undergarments as loungewear but we want to be comfy and supported. I love these from Aritzia because they’re made out of a thicker material that keeps you supported but not uncomfortable.

I hope my list of best women’s loungewear helps to keep you cozy and warm for the rest of the winter. These are all staple pieces in my wardrobe to stay comfy but also a little stylish as the weather stays so cold. Be sure to leave a comment below letting me know you loungewear must haves!

Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

November 30, 2019

Can you believe its almost Thanksigiving? Or that I’m actually writing a post dedicated to Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas? We have all been there: it’s the morning of a holiday and the outfit you thought was cute ended up being ugly or widely inappropriate for a family affair. I’m here just lending my hand and put together some fall trends to help you spark some Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas early instead of waiting until the night or morning of to decide what you’re going to wear.

Fall Dresses:

This might sound basic but dresses are probably my go to on holidays. As long as they aren’t too short or too low cut, they are the easiest to style and actually look like you tried. I love a fall colored dress or some sort of pattern that just reminds you of fall. This dress is from Free People that I actually got at Marshalls (I was so shocked too). Adding my boots and a fun sock or leg warmer just adds to the outfit and makes you look more stylish then you usually do.

Accessories!

I think this tip goes for any outfit. Don’t be afraid to add a hat or knee high boots. I feel like for fall not only do hats keep you warm but they also give off a really cool vibe. It is important to find the right kind of hat. Don’t just og to the store and buy one. You should actually try them out and see what fits best for your head shape because hats are definitely not always flattering on everyone. I am obsessed with this look I put together awhile ago and I still look to it today for my Thanksgiving outfit ideas.

Cowl Neck Sweaters

Turtle neck sweaters are not my favorite but for some reason I can wear a cowl neck no problem. I love this one from Hollister because its boxy but also flattering. I dressed it up with a sweater but it also would be cute with a pair of jeans or booties. If your Thanksgivings aren’t that dressy, even wearing a nice sweater with leggings will keep you looking put together.

Corduroy Skirts

One fall trend that I love and is timeless is textured materials. I love Corduroy skirts because they look cute but often are thicker and warmer than other skirts. Forever 21 often has them super cheap and I think that is where I got this one from. I love a good skirt and sweater situation for Thanksgiving and fall so this outfit is perfect!

I hope this post is exactly what you need to get inspired for Thanksgiving outfits. These Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas are some that I will use this year to put my outfit together. Be sure to follow me on Instagram @cassiedenisco to see what I end up wearing!

Jackets for Fall You Can’t Live Without

October 23, 2019

My favorite fall accessory is a jacket. Jackets during fall are the perfect accent to any outfit and are generally going to be your statement piece because it’s going to be most visible. Jackets for fall are the first thing people will see because it’s not like summer where you can leave the house without one. I’ve gathered all of my favorite fall jackets for you to hopefully break down the idea that jackets have to be bulky and made out of weird materials. These jackets for fall are perfect for all style tastes!

The Peacoat

This is a classic fall/winter jacket for me. It might not be the most warm but it gives off a really classy, put together vibe. I suggest having a peacoat in a few different colors so that you’ll have one for all of the events you need to go to and it can match your outfit perfectly. My peacoat is from J Crew a few seasons ago but here is a link to a similar one!

The Puffer

Now puffers might be a little more winter related but I love starting to wear them on those cold fall nights. I have two really cute puffers here with different material. The white is a classic winter jacket material but the cut makes it so flattering. It’s boxy and slightly cropped so it would look great with a workout outfit or anything street style related. On the other image, I have a suede pink puffer. I’m obsessed with this because it gives the classic puffer a really fun twist. The suede puffer is from Abercrombie but the other is from Target. Here’s a link to the similar one!

The Denim

I love love love a denim jacket with a hoodie. I think it gives such a cool and cozy vibe. Denim jackets scream fall to me and I couldn’t imagine fall fashion without one. I like to get my denim jackets for fall a little more oversized so that I am able to layer with them. It helps to make it so much easier when I’m not trying to shove my bulky sweatshirt into a cropped jacket. I also think it could be fun to get a colored denim jacket. I know black ones are really cool but I also think a red one could be perfect for fall. Here’s the link to my exact one!

The Teddy

These were huge last year but I think that they’re back again this year. The I.am.Gia craze might be over but nearly every store has some sort of teddy jacket. I’m obsessed with mine from garage when I want to be extra cozy and warm. I definitely don’t wear this jacket out as often but I think it is a staple in most people’s wardrobes. Here’s a link to a target dupe!

The Fun Ones

I am literally so obsessed with a fun jacket for fall. I love this pink fuzzy one from Lulus but I also am obsessed with any kind of statement color jackets. I have a gorgeous yellow from Brooks Brothers but I think statement jackets for fall are a must. Find one you’re obsessed with and just rock it and live it.

The Leather

I had to finish off this post with my all time favorite fall jacket, a leather one. Leather jackets are the perfect accent to fall because of their texture and warmth. Adding a scarf to a leather jacket is the perfect accessory to any fall outfit. This one is from Topshop and is real leather but you can totally get a faux leather one for much cheaper.

I think fall jackets are so important in putting together the best fall outfits. Jackets are what people will see so you have to make sure you’re choosing wisely. I’m a bit jacket obsessed but for good reason, not only are jackets for fall key to keeping you warm they also are great to add to any outfit. Check out my last fashion post here.
