Sweatshirt and Midi Skirt Weekend

This is the most perfect of weekend attire. The kangaroo pouch red sweatshirt is ultra comfortable. The pocket keeps my hands warm and I can leave my big purse at home. Everything goes in the pouch. When I'm done running around, it's also a great place for the remote control that always seems to get lost on the couch.

The skirt is a thrift find that at first glance seemed quite boring. It's very figure flattering though with a wide drawstring waistband and fancy gores that gives me some length on the stumpy legs even with the midi length. 

Super extra bonus points for being a throw on and go skirt. It's wrinkled but it looks fine that way. Adds texture and visual interest. At least that's what I tell myself.

It's still cold in this land.  After braving the weather in my near pajamas, I hopped right back on the couch with a glass of wine looking very similar to the morning's coffee pose. No wardrobe change required. 

I feel put together though. I do believe I've channeled the essence of a very interesting look I posted on Facebook. I wasn't sure how I felt about the sweatshirt midi skirt combination then I started to dig it mainly because of the wearer's confidence. Now having tried it, I'm loving the combination even more. Next time I'll have to wear a bad ass shoe -- the key to any great outfit.

What does your weekend attire look like?
