Happy Fashion Friday!
What a week. I feel like a blinked and now it's Friday. The first half of the week was so nice weather wise that I ran outside, did a yoga class with the doors open and even ate lunch outside (So NOT normal for the mountains in February. One year around this time I was iced into my house for a week!) Yesterday though was windy, nasty and cold. I'm hoping the weekend evens out some.
This weekend the Hubs and I are going out to dinner ourselves tonight for pseudo-Valentine's thing. We'll spend the actual Valentine's Day at home. And then Saturday we're meeting our good friends Dan and Sommer for dinner. The rest of the time I'm planning on getting in a few good workouts and starting the process of decluttering the house. I've decided that will be my "tax season" project this year. If you are new to the blog, the Hubs is a CPA and I spend the next few months as a tax widow while he works an insane amount of hours. I usually try to come up with some sort of project to make the most of my time.

Now onto the fashion part of the week! Have you guys noticed jogger pants making a comeback? Joggers are the athleisure pants with the cuffs at the bottom. They totally channel the 80's and I think they are a lot of fun. You can style them full on fitness style with your favorite workout tops or make them transition to street clothes like this!
I paired my new black Saucony ones with a denim skirt, simple white t-shirt (half tucked!) and a tassel necklace.
The look is a great way to use items in your closet and wear the fun new joggers style. This would be easy to throw on going to and from the gym to make your outfit look a little more presentable if you have some running around to do before actually working out.
The shoes are those same Saucony Marl shoes I talked about late last year. Guys... they feel like you are walking on clouds. I cannot get enough of them. They would not make great running shoes, but they are fabulous for light workouts or just running errands.
Pick up a pair of these pants and those super cushy shoes... they are so much fun to wear and instantly make your look more current!
I hope y'all have a fabulous weekend and happy shopping.

What are you doing this weekend?
Abby Parker says
I love your sporty-chic outfit as it can be perfect for morning jogging to casual street look. It’s also amazing that we can find stylish at the same time functional shoes suited for our activities. Wearing the wrong shoes in jogging will only lead to foot problems like ankle sprains and plantar fasciitis. So think resorting to sporty-chic yet functional shoes can be great to keep us comfortable and our style statement fashionable.

Oh you are too cute! I have seen people start wearing them and I was questioning whether I'd actually be able to pull them off or not. You're inspiring me to give it a try =)
JulieWunder says
I think they are really fun and black it pretty forgiving.
Farrah says
Sauconyyyyy! <3 I love em'! You put together the cutest outfits! :]
JulieWunder says
Thanks Farrah!
Elsie says
It's so perfect with the chambray shirt!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Elsie! xoxo
Tiffani at Breton Bay says
I LOVE joggers...to me they allow me to wear sweats and be chic at the same time. That's a WIN in my book. I love that you dressed yours up with a chambray top and tassel necklace!! I've been doing that with my athleisure wear a lot lately...it justifies in my mind how much I dress so casually 😉

Ellen That Chic Mom says
Those joggers are super cute!!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Ellen!
Vicky Cristina says
I just wear joggers when I go to the gym and when I'm at home. Don't know why other girls wearing it look so fashionable, as you, but to me, it makes me look smaller and shorter. what a pity!
JulieWunder says
Awww!! I guess it is a hard thing to wear for you! I totally understand though.
Edye says
I always get excited for your Fashion Friday posts! I love wearing joggers but need to do so more often. Thanks for the inspiration, Julie <3
JulieWunder says
Thanks Edye! I do too!! xoxo
Emily says
I've never worn joggers, but you style them so well. It's both fashionable and casual; they sound really comfortable!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Emily! I really like them!
Kimberly Hatting says
Those joggers look great on you, but I don't think they'd be my best option...I'm tall (LONG legs) and they'd probably barely graze the top of my calves LOL I love the combo of white/black/denim!
JulieWunder says
I'm 5'8"! How tall are you?
Savvy Southern Chic says
My linen blend JCrew Factory joggers were one of my best investments. I have worn them all seasons, even dressed up a bit with sandals. You look so cute in this outfit.
JulieWunder says
Ohhh I bet those are lovely!! Thanks for stopping by today.
Blane Sherer says
You have such a nice variety in your Fashion Fridays.
Hope you enjoy your weekend and your Valentine's Day.
JulieWunder says
Thanks so much Blane! Hope you have a great holiday too.
Morgan @ Morgan Manages Mommyhood says
I always WANT a pair of those, but I have a feeling they will just got be my best choice, ha! my family is cursed/blessed with what my mom is fond of calling "birthing hips" bahahha but they look WAY cute on you!
JulieWunder says
Oh noo!! haha! I doubt it's not that bad!! 🙂
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
You look so cute! I still love those saucony shoes!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Nicole! Me too!
Jaime says
We're going to dinner and a concert tonight, and it feels like my weekend is packed with chores and things I can't get done during the week! At least I have tonight. 😉
JulieWunder says
I feel the same way! Hope you got caught up.
Susie @ Suzlyfe says
I definitely dig those joggers, and would so wear them if it was not FREEZING
JulieWunder says
Hopefully soon!
Annmarie says
Can I just come raid your closet? I want those Saucony shoes too! 🙂
JulieWunder says
YES! Let's trade stuff! lol!
Heather @Lunging Through Life says
So cute! I haven't bought any of them, but eye them up every time I'm in the store. It's honestly just the whole pregnant thing, what size will I be after thing that is keeping me from them! haha BUT I am lovingggg that look. Also, love your tax season project. We've been decluttering like crazy. The only sad part is that it's mostly closets and cabinets so you can hardly tell, lol
JulieWunder says
I can imagine it's hard to buy clothes now! I feel the same way about the clutter... I hide mine well so you can't see it!
Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner says
I feel very comfy in my yoga pants and tights but I tried those pants a while back and felt like they were not me. Maybe I should retry them! Looks cute on you
JulieWunder says
I like them!
lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
I think that looks great o you by idk if I would be able to pull it off. Enjoy your pre Valentine's dinner this wkend.
JulieWunder says
I bet you could!!
