Cozy Chic: Loungewear Looks

During this “new normal” of staying at home, I’ve been gravitating toward athletic clothing a lot. I’ve decided that I can step up my shelter-in-place look a bit more, but I would still love to be comfortable while I’m reading a book or sitting at my computer (or watching Tiger King…). I’ve also spent days weeks rocking the old-but-oh-so-comfortable-unattractive-sweater look, so I decided to check out some new options.

Loungewear sets are all the rage these days and I am all about it now. I like that I can feel so cozy but also put-together and cute at the same time. I’ve modeled some looks and added some similar options to shop as well!

Fun fact – this outfit is made out of recycled fabric!

The sets above and below are from Nasty Gal. Remember when I said these sets were flying off the shelves? They are both sold out :/. See end of post for other options.

For all of these looks, I am wearing either a black or white bralette under the sweaters. I like that bralettes are easy to throw on and can add details to a look like a pop of lace, a bow, or fun straps.

Some simple details to jazz up a sweater look

For this look, the sweater is from Lulus (sold out – ugh), the shoes are from SeeVees, and the bralette is an older one from Aerie. Click here to shop the earrings. The pants, as well as other loungewear styles, are linked below.

Gotta love a DIY project! I had some matchbooks sa Gotta love a DIY project! I had some matchbooks saved, and then we were also gifted some vintage ones! For a first-time project, I think they turned out pretty well! 👏🏻 

Collect your matchbooks and get all the craft materials here: https://www.amazon.com/shop/thebetslife/list/2F6IQ1Q2X7X35?ref_=aipsflist 🛒 

- Mod Podge your matchbooks and matchsticks. You can use a small paint brush or a sponge brush. I found that I had some discoloration on the white/lighter boxes, so maybe do a couple of coats on those to be safe? Or maybe go for darker colors? I did one coat of Mod Podge on everything. I let everything dry out for a day (although, I don’t think you would have to wait this long).

-  Follow the instructions on the box of the epoxy resin. Wear gloves and mix equal parts, stirring together for a few minutes. I mixed in plastic red cups that I later disposed of. Fill the coaster mold cups halfway with the mixture. 

- I waited 1 hour until the mixture was a bit tacky and then I added the matchbooks. The matchsticks/books may move around a bit, and you can always use tweezers to reposition.

- I waited 5 hours and then filled the rest of the molds up to the top with more epoxy resin. Leave molds for 24 hours and then remove. The coasters should pop out easily! 

What do you think of these? Let me know how your coasters turn out too! Share this video with your DIY/crafty friends. 🥰
