Atlanta's in Sweatpants

And I’m not even joking. We’ve been home since Monday afternoon. Being from the north, I’m not going to crack any jokes (out loud.) I get it. Snow is something foreign south of the Mason-Dixon Line and the freeways resemble the apocalypse. While being home with the kids this week, I’ve resorted to sweatpants and my ever-so-fluffy ankle-length robe. What I’m saying is: Sledding and snowboarding don’t require a sequined tank and a bomber jacket. If you live here in the Atlanta area, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

But, it IS possible to dress up your beloved comfy pants. Toss on a lacy tank with a cute cardi, furry boots, colorful printed scarf, big earrings, some slouchy sweatpants and throw your hair into a high pony. Want to dress them up? Try a pair that’s a big more snug, a crisp collared shirt, a faux leather jacket, cute booties and a thin scarf. Done.

For the days when you’re doing nothing, but still want to look ready for something, add a little spice to the items that you THINK you can wear only around your humble abode. And taking a look at the weather report, you may need these ideas for next week as well…
