Have you ever wondered what to wear on an airplane? Maybe you travel a lot and are looking for something new and comfortable for your next flight. Or perhaps you haven’t traveled recently and need to replace your Pan-Am bag and blue suit? Well, I have found the most comfortable clothing for flying! It’s SOMA Intimates new Style Essentials collection!

Long flights sometimes drive me a little bit crazy because I am trapped in a tube, who knows how high above the ground, for five to six hours. It is really boring. I can’t go for a run, I can’t jump and down, and I feel stuck in my seat. Since I am stuck in a seat, which isn’t exactly comfortable, I always need to make sure my airplane attire is as comfortable as possible. Thank goodness for SOMA Intimates Style Essentials collection!

The SOMA Intimates Style Essentials clothing is extremely soft. Their clothing is so soft and comfortable, sometimes I forget I am in street clothes and not wearing pajamas! haha

I love these cropped leggings for travel. They are really soft and easy to wear. They allow me to get as comfortable as possible in my airplane seat; and that’s quite a feat! This blue tunic tee is super soft and comfy, it’s great for being comfy at home, travel, or anytime you want to wear something which is no-fuss. You may recognize this black jacket, it’s my current go-to cover up. This jersey jacket is really soft and the perfect weight for fall weather. It’s great on foggy days and perfect for air travel. Love!

You can find more comfy air travel options from SOMA Intimates online at Soma.com.

Track pants on a spring day

athleisure for spring how to wear athleisure how to wear track pantschloe nile handbagtrack pants for spring

wearing: white and rose gold earrings / lipstick / black v-neck tee / denim jacket (old, also love this one) / track pants (on sale!) / black leather and rose gold watch / spring nail polish / bracelet set c/o Macy’s / Chloe bag / sneakers /

Have ever had one of those days when you wake up and something hurts, you’re exhausted, and your schedule is full? Ugh, that was me last Friday! I woke up with an aching knee, I was exhausted-as if I ran a marathon, which I did not, and my schedule was jam-packed!

My knee threw me for a loop. Since it was spring break, I thought it would be a good idea to do a few volunteer hours with my daughters since I am trying to teach them our responsibility for the community around us. Since the weather was nice, I thought an outdoor volunteer job would be nice. So, I took the girls down to the Rose Garden in San Jose and we joined other volunteers to help maintain the garden. Our job was weeding. Now, I have a gardener at my house, so although I know how to weed, my body isn’t used to it. We worked for three hours, and afterwards it felt like I had done squats for three hours straight! Eeek!

I could barely walk the next two days, and on Friday I woke up with a pain in my knee. Ugh! I had to cancel my plans of attending spin class with a friend, and just concentrate on getting through the day without aggravating my knee even more. I met up with my fabulous friend Laura from Have Need Want and snapped pictures of our outfits, played with her cute little toddler, and ate a yummy lunch at Tacolicious. I’m so thankful I had this athleisure outfit in my closet to help me be comfortable throughout the day! Three cheers for the athleisure trend! Hip, hip, hooray!

There is nothing like wearing super comfortable sneakers and soft track pants to help alleviate exhaustion and pain. I never want to take these sneakers off! Or these pants! haha, they are so comfy!

Do you ever have days when your body just wants to stay in bed, but you have so many errands to run, you have to get up and go? What’s your favorite way to dress on those days? Mine is definitely athleisure!

Thanks for stopping by!

Winter into spring athleisure dress

casual athleisure dress outfit ideas jd williams tote bag how to wear athleisure dress sneakers winter springjd williams silver sneakershow to wear a dress with sneakers

wearing: nautical navy statement earrings / lipstick / grey leather jacket c/o JD Williams (on major sale!!) / navy athleisure dress c/o JD Williams / spring nail polish / black tote bag c/o JD Williams (has a detachable shoulder strap) / sparkling silver street sneakers c/o JD Williams (so comfy!!)

Spring has sprung! Of course, as we transition from 40 degree winter weather, into our current daily highs of spring-like 75 degrees, our wardrobes need to transition too. It can be challenging to create an outfit which can easily flow between these extreme temperature swings, thankfully, the athleisure trend is an easy way to transition between seasons.

As you know, the athleisure trend is huge! The more popular athleisure looks become, the more variety we are all looking for while putting together our daily looks. I love this trend so much because it is comfortable, practical, and machine washable! haha Seriously though, who has time for running to the dry cleaners every week?

Athleisure styles are perfect for daily life, plus they are ideal for transitioning between seasons. I love being able to wear a casual dress with street sneakers (so very athleisure!) and also to be able to flow from 45 degree mornings into 75 degree afternoons. With the addition of this extremely soft and comfortable moto jacket by JD Williams, I can easily flow from winter mornings, to spring afternoons. Love that!

I spotted this dress on the JD Williams website. Instantly I could tell it would be something I could easily wear in the winter, and the upcoming spring season. Plus, it’s blue! You know that is my favorite color! It’s super comfy, and easy to pair with edgy street sneakers. I love silver footwear. Last fall I wore silver boots all the time; even at fashion week! So silver sneakers are a natural addition to my wardrobe. They add a bit of glam to athleisure looks. I’m all about a touch of glam in my daily looks!

This was my outfit a few days ago when I ran errands with the kids, tooks the kids to some of thier activities, and was on the go. It was super comfortable, and when the weather warmed up, I removed the jacket and felt perfectly fine. This dress can also be amped up for non-athleisure looks with the addition of booties, loafer pumps, or flats. It’s really versatile.

If you haven’t checked out the JD Williams website-check it out! They have so many cute looks you can wear now and throughout the spring season. Plus, they have some really cute coats on major sale! Also, JD Williams carries plus sizes in addition to missy sizes. Love that!

Have you been wearing the athleisure trend? Have you tried it with a dress?
