Comfy Cozy OOTD

Comfy Cozy OOTD

Hi! Going to the movies is one of my favorite things in the world and I love checking out what’s hot in horror or anything else that strikes my interest on the big screen. I frequent the local Cinemark with Johnny, my friends, and family at least twice a month and there is just nothing better than loading up on snacks and getting lost in the cinematic universe for a few hours. As you all know, I love to dress up for any and every occasion but that was so not the case the last two times I hit up the movie theater. The live recording of Hadestown and The Odyssey were both long AF and, for once, I could not be bothered to dress for cuteness lol. In those situations, it was all about comfort to settle into the almost three hour flicks! Check it out:

Who? What? Wear?

Rock On Hoodie: Zoe + Liv, Target

The sweats are just an old pair I work out in lol – like I said, I could not be bothered for cuteness!

Sneakers: Adidas, TJMaxx

Wow! That’s a totally different look than what you usually see me in but the thing is, this is how I look 95% of the time! During the work week, I am sporting no makeup, a hoodie or t-shirt, and jeans or shorts. The OOTDs I post on here are reserved for weekend dates with Johnny and outings with friends. Johnny and I both get up at the buttcrack of dawn for work and I just don’t have the time or desire to get myself done up to meet with clients or do content shoots after my morning work from home rush. And you know what? That’s okay!

Back when I was a teen and early twenty something, I would have been shocked to read myself say I go to work comfy and bare faced a decade later. In the olden days, I wouldn’t have left the house without makeup and a cute outfit! As I have gotten older, however, I simply don’t care as much lol. My clients all know what I look like, my content shoots all revolve around working outside, and I would rather eat a good breakfast and watch an anime in the morning over doing my makeup. That is honestly my favorite part of the morning and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 😀

No matter what I leave the house in whether it’s a full fit or lounge wear, I’m rocking it because I’m me. And the same goes for you too! This Comfy Cozy OOTD is a reminder that what you see online is usually far from what you see in real life. That’s why I’m posting this outfit and share bloopers from my OOTD shoots because that’s Lil Red too! I might look put together in the clothes I style, but I am still a goofy, imperfect, often fresh faced gal and don’t care who knows it. Especially because I was probably the comfiest person in the theater when I saw The Odyssey!! Lol GREAT SUCCESS.

This is Lil Red IRL but trust and believe I will be putting a few killer OOTDs together this weekend for the plans in my calendar. Stay tuned for the latest and greatest! ❤

How do you dress on a normal day? How are you required to dress for work? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

If The Shoe Fits: Adidas Sneakers Edition

Hi!! All of my hiking shoes have gone to the fashion gods in the sky and I was in desperate need of a new pair of tennies to hit the trails in. I decided to rectify this with a quick stop into Famous Footwear and was thoroughly disappointed as literally none of their shoes fit me. All of their size sixes were WAY too big and I walked out of the store empty handed. However, I did have an ace up my sleeve: A TJMaxx gift card from Johnny’s parents for my birthday! I honestly wasn’t expecting to find a new pair of sneakers during a shopping trip with my mom because TJ’s in store selection leaves a lot to be desired. To my pleasant surprise, I ended up with a new pair of Adidas that I really like! And, yes, I’m just as shocked as all of you that this edition of If The Shoe Fits doesn’t involve heels lol. Check it out:

The shoe department in TJMaxx gave me two options: A poppy pair of burgundy sneakers and the subdued but chic Adidas. I’m not going to lie, I was hoping that the burgundy pair would work because they were ten dollars cheaper. However, they were too big and went back on the shelf. The Adidas tennis shoes were my last chance before turning to online shopping and I was a little nervous as I tentatively slipped them on. To my delight, they fit like a glove! A true blue size six which is exactly what I am and exactly what I needed. These sneakers are sturdy, comfortable, and I just know that I’ll be able to walk for miles on the hiking trails or exploring the scenery of Italy during my vacation in the fall.

After trying the Adidas on, I was actually really happy that the burgundy pair didn’t work out. I think these shoes are ultra cool! I love the stone grey color paired with the beige stripes, chocolate brown soles, and the bold black laces. While the burgundy tennies provided a pop of color they might not go with every outfit while the Adidas are a perfect neutral. It has been a loooong time since I shopped for sneakers and it was way more difficult than I thought it would be. After a lot of trial and error, I came out on top and, as always, have TJMaxx to thank for that. I scored these Adidas for forty-five bucks which was a much nicer price than the eighty plus dollar options at Famous Footwear. Remind me why I even bothered with that store in the first place!

I kind of feel like a traitor for doubting the TJMaxx shoe department but I made good with this purchase. Peep more from my shopping haul coming soon!

What is your preferred style of shoe? Are you a sneakerhead? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah
