Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ Feb 21-26
Yep. I’m still putting on clothes (almost) every day.
SATURDAY
Was up all night watching a show, then slept til 1pm. Got dressed just to shovel (again) and get a sandwich from the deli.
Grabbed this striped top from the donate pile cuz it’s been so long since I’ve been to the laundromat and I’m getting tired of wearing the same six things. It may be too dingy even for donating. It may just go to the rag bag.
Striped Shirt: Ava&Viv/Target, 3x. Old/thrifted. Comparable here.
Plaid Blouse: Sanctuary, 3x. Comparable here.
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda jeans, black wash, 20 short
Sneakers: Converse Shoreline slip-ons
SUNDAY
Just running out to get breakfast sandwich from deli then home to try and do at least SOME of the things I’d planned to do over vacation…but didn’t. Shocker.
Pullover: Grey cashmere Catherine Malandrino, 3x
Turtleneck: Lightweight Fitted Long Sleeve Turtleneck from Lands End, 3x. Comes in lots of colors.
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda jeans, Scottsdale wash, 20 short
Sneakers: Converse Shoreline slip-ons
MONDAY
Back to work, but work-from-home today.
This has been a favorite combo for awhile. This sweater is so light and lovely to wear. I’m so digging the “sweater over t-shirt” look. I like the combination of all low saturation tones.
I’m just a low saturation girl.
Sweater: Ellos cream v-neck cashmere pullover, size 2x. Comparable here.
T-shirt: H&M viscose/cotton jersey, 3x.
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda, Callisto wash, 20 short
Sneakers: Keds Champions
TUESDAY
Back to the office today for the first time in many lovely days. Temps close to 40 so I didn’t need total neck/chest coverup.
Honestly not a huge fan of this combo. I think I’d like a darker grey cardigan better. I JUST found an old (really old) grey cardigan but it’s so crumpled and smelly from being trapped in a plastic bin for a long time. Once I wash it I’ll try that over this blouse (ha ha) and see if I like that better. It might be a little small for wearing over this shirt, but I’ll give it a try.
Buttondown: (I have some sort of mental block about calling them blouses. Blouses sound so girly. Like a friend used to call her husband’s underwear “panties” and I was like “panties are for girls.” Ha. Why we were talking about his underwear in the first place, I have no idea but. And clearly I had clothes-gendering issues back then.) Sanctuary, 3x. Comparable here.
Sweater: Charlotte Russe, 3x. Comparable here.
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda, Crystal White, 20 short.
Sneakers: Converse Chuck Taylor Shoreline slip-ons.
WEDNESDAY
Uhm. A work from home day. Might leave the building after work for a donut.
Oh, I’m TOTALLY leaving the building after work for a donut.
Sweater: Treasure&Bond olive green crewneck pullover, 3x
T-shirt: H&M viscose cotton blend white t-shirt, 3x
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda, Scottsdale wash, 20 short.
Feet: Model’s own
THURSDAY
I love this outfit.
I said in my TikTok OOTD video (yes, I’m still doing them every day. On Day 75 already!), if I’d only washed my hair in the morning, I’d give this ‘fit a 10/10. And I am a harsh critic!
I always enjoy the black column as base layer and I would wear this particular black turtleneck every day if I could…and these black jeans are my best fitting jeans (even though they’re all the exact same brand, style, size, and era). I have zero complaints with this brown cardigan. And this particular shade of rich chocolate brown paired with black black? It’s my new boyfriend. Who never stands me up (of course there’s a story there, wanna hear it?).
Thursday’s outfit is the winner for me.
Maybe I should rate all my OOTDs like this. Rank them 1-7 from favorite to least favorite. Hmm. I’m almost done here, I’ll do that next week and see if it’s useful to anyone. Maybe not so useful. Maybe better to list pros and cons of each outfit?
Turtleneck: Black cotton cashmere blend, 22/24
Cardigan: Old Navy, 2x. No longer available
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda, black wash, 20 short

Three online meetings! Ohhhh….

Tuesday’s outfit would look super with black pants/jeans. Love that cardigan…I like cardigans that have shape to them.

I feel like I’ve probably already done that (black jeans, red plaid buttondown, grey cardi) but will give it a go if not…if we have enough cold weather time left!
Thanks for the suggestion, Christine!
