covet:: sweatshirts

Remember back when I wore super-cute outfits and heels all the time? Even when nine months pregnant? Even while toting a newborn? Those were good times. Good times that ended once I had a mobile tiny person, with sticky hands and super-fast running skills. These days I seem to live in some variation of sweatshirt/jeans/brightly colored flats. Every time I attempt a dress, my child decides to hide under it while in public. When I pull out a vintage top, I rip out the sleeves attempting to pick him up. Heels? He starts running down our gravel driveway and I'm wobbling behind.
So this is where I am: in a momiform. I've packed away all my vintage and most of my cute shoes, knowing there will come a day when they'll come back out. And in the meantime? I'm trying to make sure I wear something a little bit cuter than a Hanes crewneck fleece.

1. How cute would this be with skinnies and slouchy boots? Or leggings and ankle boots and a beanie? I like the longer length; butt coverage is key. Old Navy 2. I mean, Jcrew is basically the Mecca of sweatshirts that are a little more classy. But seriously. JCrew 3. Nerd alert, right? But so fun! And a good color. SoEffingCute 4. Octopi are gorgeous anyway, and I love this dramatic black and white design. skipnwhistle 5. This tunic-length top would look adorable with zips undone over a neon tank. Gap
So how are you classing up comfy? Or are you refusing to cave?
