Style | The Perfect Lounging Outfit

August 24, 2015 by Whitney 40 Comments

This weekend was a bit hectic because hubs and I are in the process of packing to move to our new place next Saturday. While packing can be very overwhelming, I was thankful my family came over to lend a hand. Because of their help, I know the rest of the process this week will be a breeze! With all the packing and whatnot I really needed a brief change of scenery. Thankfully, hubs was able to whisk me off to The Mayflower Hotel in D.C. for a relaxing overnight stay, which happens to be my post-birthday treat. I was thrilled; anytime I can throw on a lounging outfit and relax for a bit, I’m down!

Weekend Lounge Outfit
I made sure I packed my favorite lounge item when I found out we were headed to D.C. This thrifted moo-moo is a staple lounging outfit. If I don’t thrift them I head to Marshall’s, TJMaxx or Ross; their prices and selections are always on point (starting at $9.99). Wearing this makes me feel like I stepped back to the 60’s or 70’s. I love those eras style wise so anytime I can channel that through an outfit, I’m a happy girl!

The perfect outfit for lounging and relaxing during the weekend. #wnjstyle

I like to wear garments like this because to be quite honest, it makes me feel FABULOUS. Wearing something flowy, pretty and feminine just while lounging always makes me feel good. Just because you’re in the house (or relaxing at a hotel) doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look and feel fabulous. Plus, your husband or significant other will appreciate it. I learned that from my Mom. 😉

    Your moo-moo is ca-ute Whitney! I have two of these in my closet that I wasn’t sure about wearing as dresses. I think you could definitely get away with wearing these out of the house for quick errands and still look chic and put together. That color is absolutely amazing on you and the print…yeeees!! Thanks for hosting the link-up!

    How very sweet and thoughtful of your hubby to whisk you away from the chaos. You look elegant and perfectly relaxed. This lounging gown is lovely…and my favorite color too. I hope the move goes smoothly.
