As I looked at jogger pants for sale, they seemed to be marketed in a very casual way similar to sweatpants for down time only. But they have so much more potential. Even if you have never worn joggers, I hope you will begin to see how to make the most of them as you look through this post.
Joggers are comfy and casual, but they can also be dressed up for day or evening. They are usually made of French terry or jersey material, but there are also versions in velvet, satin and even sequins or faux leather. They are versatile enough to fit any occasion or lifestyle and yet comfortable and stretchy. Anyone can wear them. Age doesn’t matter.
Here are some outfit ideas to help you get the most use from your jogger pants. Even though there are outfits here using t-shirts and sneakers, there is a twist added with a third piece, texture or accessories.

As the incredible events of this past year went on, my life didn’t change a whole lot…until Christmas, that is. While COVID spiked, gifts had to be mailed or exchanged outdoors with masks on and our family didn’t gather this year. Basically, though, I continued to work from home on this blog throughout the year. Now that the year is ending, I’m ready to shine a spotlight on the best of Your True Self Blog in 2020. And as a new year begins, I extend good wishes to you for health, prosperity and happiness!

This is the fourth in a series of posts on how to add a touch of luxury to your outfits with velvet. Previously, I wrote a style tip and how to style a velvet jacket or top. You can find those subjects linked at the bottom of this post along with another that I wrote for my Holiday Series (HERE.) I have gotten lots of positive feedback on my kimono outfit ideas (HERE) so I know that kimonos are popular. Age doesn’t matter! First of all, kimonos and dusters cloak your body in comfort. Secondly, they’re that all-important third piece that takes a basic two-piece outfit from plain to spectacular effortlessly. Ultimately that makes them a go-to item for the holidays, whether you have a special event or you just want to feel festive at home. So with all that goodness in mind, let’s take a look at nine of the best ways to wear a kimono or duster. Continue Reading

This is the second in a series of posts on velvet pieces, from jackets to tops, skirts, pants, dusters and kimonos. The first post of this series was a style tip using velvet pants or skirts (you can find it HERE.) As usual, I give you plenty of outfit ideas to make it easy for you to get dressed with style every day. You can wear velvet for the holidays, in the evenings, any day just for you. I’ll show you how to style your velvet jacket or blazer for every day of the festive season. Treat yourself to this soft material any time and especially during hard times. Age doesn’t matter.
Alternative types of material and jacket styles
As a casual alternative, you can substitute velveteen or velour. A black velvet blazer is a classic staple. If you feel better in navy, feel free to substitute that and think of it as your new black. And if you don’t go to many fancy events, you can get just as much use out of a casual version such as a kimono jacket, bomber jacket or even a jean jacket in velvet.
Here’s What I’ll Cover
I’ll start with evening and holiday outfit combinations because that’s when we automatically think of wearing a velvet jacket. Then I will go on to special events, then business looks and then I will give you outfit combinations that are more casual. I will end with other ways to wear velvet jackets or blazers for any variety of situations.
But first, let me note the basic formula for wearing a velvet jacket or blazer and then give you a quick style tip:
