"Reverse" 30x30: Velvet Pants on a Snow Day. Hip hip hooray.

I'm going to chuck some randomness at you. Let's see what a good catch you are.

1. I love these leather gloves from my mom because they have a "secret" power. They allow me to play with my phone, but they don't have those little silver patches on the fingers! The downside? If I touch my oily face with them, they leave a black mark, which is a tad reminiscent of war paint. 

2. I need snow boots. Though these rain boots are undeniably cute, they are not snow boots. Anyone have some good recommendations that don't come at an enormous price tag?

3. Why do good hair days come along only on snow days that do not involve going to work or anywhere that people other than your husband, dogs, and leasing office will see you? Silver lining? Start a blog and the people of the internet will see you in all your curly glory. (Yes, that mane is natural. No, it doesn't always cooperate and look like that.)

4. This blanket scarf is so large and in charge that I almost fell coming up the apartment steps today because I couldn't see my feet. It's okay if my neck is broken as long as it's warm. 

Reverse 30x30 Goodness

I reversed these teal, velvet pants. 

The verdict? They are most definitely staying for the long haul. 

It's like someone kidnapped the velveteen rabbit and turned him into pants. 

Plus, as I was trying to style them with items in my closet, I realized that they go with several items. 

Who knew pants like these could be so...remixable?

You'll probably see them again this month. I have a work outfit planned around them. 

It'll be like wearing pajamas to work, and those are the best outfits.
