Good Monday morning! I hope y’all had a nice weekend. Ours was fantastic. Lots of fun family time during the day and then out with friends at night celebrating birthdays. Best kind of weekend.
So today’s post is a follow up to a post I shared around a month ago about pairing long tops with leggings, specifically the spanx ready to wow leggings. These leggings are the freaking best. I only have one pair now but plan to get another pair b/c I’ve been wearing them so much. They totally suck you in and are really thick so they’ll be nice and warm in the winter. But they’re still comfortable. Pretty much the best. It was kind of chilly this night so I threw on my Veda leather jacket. Any excuse to pull it out. It’s worth the splurge but if you’re looking for a look for less this leather jacket is a great alternative in black.

You may have noticed that I’m really into asymmetrical hems. It’s such an easy way to make a classic piece interesting and unique. This Subtle Luxury uneven hem crew sweater is one of my favorite sweaters. It’s long enough to wear with leggings, but because the hem cuts up in a few places, it keeps it interesting. Plus it’s really soft.

Just catching up in the blog world. Love the hemline, killer outfit!
Love it. It adds a bit of the unexpected and in a really good way!
Dude you HAVE to. If you love the tights you’re going to want to marry the leggings. Thank you :) xoxoxoxo

They almost are! I kinda feel like I could wear them as pants. They’re that sturdy.
Love that jacket!! And I’m really curious about the leggings, they really look like skinny pants!
Hahahaha, yes that’s a good alley isn’t it? ;) Thanks Julia.
They’re really amazing. And yes I have the city pant too – love that one!! Can’t believe they don’t make it.
Good questions Ashley. Not see through AT ALL! They have washed well – I lay them out to dry. Trust me they’re worth trying. They are my most flattering leggings I have.
I’m really interested in these leggings, but they do not have them at my local Nordstrom so I would have to order online without seeing them. After wearing them for so long, how do they wash? Have they balled up at all? Are they pretty thick fabric, as in, not see through even when stretched?
I have the Ready to Wow leggings on my list to buy- I keep hearing too many good things. I feel similar about my J.Crew City Pant- It’s a damn shame they don’t make them anymore!
