TUXEDO

With holiday parties underway, I thought I’d share this fun-and-still-festive look. Honestly… I think I prefer it to a dress? Am I not a dress girl but… a tuxedo woman?!

It’s not a look I would have picked out for myself as my first choice, but I’m doing a campaign on Instagram with J. Crew and a lot of the pieces were sold out in my size. When I took another look through the PDF, the tuxedo blazer stood out to me and I thought…. maybe? Turns out I love it! I ordered a dress too, to be safe, but the tuxedo surprisingly felt much more me. Maybe I shouldn’t feel so surprised. I have loved a blazer since as long as I can remember and this is just a fancy version, after all, right?

Even if you’re not into the tuxedo yourself, I need to tell you about these incredible pants. They’re structured and fit like a dream… but get this… they’re like a sweater pant so they’re insanely stretchy and comfortable. Talk about a win for a party. I have the kick crop version (aka they’re more cropped and feel slightly more casual) as well and loved them from the minute I put them on. Both pants, due to their stretchiness, are great options for postpartum when your size is in flux and you want to feel supported but not restricted.

I love this look so much I’m over here wondering if I sell all my dresses and just wear this as a party uniform from now on 😜
