Whether you’re working at home or relaxing on weekends, you can still look good — even when no one’s looking. Just for you…your true self…body, mind and soul…to be comfortable and beautiful. So I’m going to share with you my ideas on how to look cute when you’re just lounging around. Age doesn’t matter.
Since I’ve been working at home writing a fashion blog, I don’t need to get dressed for work anymore. I’m around the house a lot. And, of course, I just want to be comfortable. It’s time to dress down.
Yet I still like to play with colors, scarves are my signature piece, and I like to add a cool piece of jewelry or more. As always, I don’t like to wear the same thing twice; I like to create endless combinations of what I have. Yet I have some favorite combos, such as a tunic with skinnies or a maxi with a t-shirt. And the best thing is: I love my jeans.
What do you wear when you’re just hanging around the house? Do you wear sweats or jeans and a tee? Are you tired of the same old thing and feel like you’re ready for some new inspiration? Do you want to look great while you lounge in comfort?
Well then, let’s explore:

When my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I pointed out my selection in the Southwest Indian Foundation catalog: a handmade embroidered hoodie and matching drawstring pants. When we called to order it, we slowly discovered that COVID-19 had swept through the desert Southwest reservation areas and large numbers of Indians had died. That realization made me decide to interrupt my Velvet Outfits series in order to let my readers know about this urgent situation. Now, what I want for Christmas is help for Native Americans.
