Not Your Average New Year’s Article

The typical January fashion articles focus on one of two things: (one) workout wear to encourage readers to keep their New Year’s resolutions or (two) sparkly New Year’s Eve attire to help you start the year out right 🎉. I, personally, love those two topics, but I decided to mix it up for Stitched readers!

I feel like for me the most important part of January is resetting so I can garner my creative energy to set my New Year’s goals.  And, if you’re like me, you really dig deep, and ask, “How is my time in 2019 going to get me closer to what I want?”

The most important part of goal-setting is –drumroll– loungewear.  That’s right. Get comfy and put away your leg prisons (otherwise known as pants). I am going to show you the cutest goal-setting digs around.

This set is magical. So magical, in fact, that my sister bought me, my other sisters, and my mom sets for Christmas after she bought herself one. And, yes, I do support grown women having full matching outfits.  If you are trying dry January, a bath, these threads, and a book are a perfect night.

The Groove Pant

Yoga pants are the “gotta have them” of loungewear. If you are feeling a little stuck after the holidays, these pants will help you find your groove again.  Okay, that was cheesy. But I really do feel like these pants make women of all shapes and sizes feel good about themselves. I know that I need clothes that help me stop obsessing about what I look like so that I can sit down and concentrate. Try these or the Target version for a much prettier price point. The Groove pant is worth every penny, but I am also obsessed with my Target ones. I included a similar pair of plus size yoga pants from Target.

Hooded Parka

Good jackets are like closets: they make everything on the outside look neat and clean.  Insecurities be gone, this jacket will cover any of your faults so you can maintain your positive attitude and be the goal digger you need to be.

Palomar Sneaker

The important part of a loungewear outfit is to always be able to change one thing and go run an errand, but also be able to change one thing and be able to take a nap. So I give you a final recommendation, a shoe comfortable enough for you to loaf around the house in, but stylish enough for you to go out to lunch.

I don’t design clothes. I design dreams.
