I’m not going to lie to you, I love sweatpants.  I won’t deny it or pretend that they’re not oh-so comfortable.  They’re my go-to for lounging around the house, but rarely are they really acceptable outside of that.  I’ve tried pairing them with heels in the past, and when they’re crisp and new and just the right fit, it sort of works, but after a few (dozen) lazy nights or weekends spent cleaning in them, they start to look less than chic.  Enter the sweatshirt dress.  I’ve made my case for this particular piece a few times already (here and here) but earnestly, when getting dressed feels like the hardest chore (like with yesterday’s migraine) it’s such a relief to know I can grab this dress and a pair of strappy heels and at least look a little more pulled together.
