A few years ago I made it my personal mission to upgrade my old pair of sweatpants for a more elevated take on loungewear. I kept seeing the Spanx Air Essentials collection everywhere, so I decided to grab a cropped hoodie and matching pants during one of their sales. Years later, not only do I […]

How to Wear a Black Dress in Summer
