Who wouldn’t want to wear a comfy sweatshirt out for a casual date night? I DON’T KNOW. I found this fun bright blue one and I’ve been wearing it non-stop. It’s that in between weather time of year where it’s still quite cool but if you’re like me you’re getting sick of sweaters and all the layers…
Cue the cozy sweatshirt in a bright color with plenty of fun accessories. Pair it with favorite black jeans, fun shoes, earrings and a bag with some metal details. This easy look could obviously be great for a day to night look, too.

I think the trick here is to choose a top that’s oversized for that sexy 80’s Flashdance vibe. That makes it more date night appropriate yeah? The bright color also helps.
And when you go out and wind up eating ALL THE SOUP DUMPLINGS no one will ever know in your oversized sweatshirt. #winning (Yes, that was me staring lovingly at our delicious meal at XLB in N. Portland)
Outfit Details
Sweatshirt – H&M Oversized Sweatshirt – So easy and comfy and you’ll probably just want to sleep in it, too. I feel like that’s the best kind of top for me these days. #easy Wearing size S.
Jeans – Madewell 9″ High Rise Skinny Jeans in Black Sea – Favorite black skinny jeans. They hold their shape and are soft and comfy. They just fit me best and the knee distressing hits where I like. I wear these literally every other day. Fit TTS.
Boots – Matisse Nelson Bootie – LOVE these. The heel height is SO walkable and yet they’re nice and dressy. They don’t come up too high on the ankle either, so they’re flattering for shorter legs like mine. I wear these as a neutral boot and I love love them. Fit TTS
Earrings – Betsy & Iya Novi Hoop Earrings – Local Portland designers and my fav earrings.
Bag – Vince Camuto Crossbody – Mine is an older style but I’m loving this updated one with similar brass details…and this one with studs is on sale!
