Happy Friday everyone! It’s Feel Good Fashion time around here.

Yesterday I wore what is possibly my dream outfit. As in, if you had asked me a year ago what outfit I was the most envious of seeing someone else wear, this would be an outfit I would definitely pick. I have literally always dreamed about wearing boots like this!

I pretty much walked around all day feeling awesome. I can’t wait to wear these boots again.

These are the boots I mentioned I was going to buy several weeks ago. Zappos was out and I’ve been waiting to buy them since! I bought a different pair of brown boots while waiting, but finally these came back in stock and I’m obsessed with them!

I was running errands and was at Sears and popped into a dressing room to take pictures while I was out :)

Here’s where everything is from:

Wait bella band?! wtf right?

So, the last time I wore these black skinny jeans and wrote about them, I complained about how my waist band kept popping over. On that post Zalary recommended buying a bella band to keep my pants up. Buying a maternity band was a little strange, but I took a chance and bought one. It’s works great!!! Zalary is a freaking genius.

I bought a black one and wear it under my shirt and it keeps my pants up and I adjust it every time I got to the bathroom. I definitely recommend this if you are in between sizes and having trouble keeping those dang pants up!

I am so happy I was able to find boots that fit and that Rachel talked me into buying skinny jeans. I love this outfit and can’t wait to wear these boots + jeans in other combinations.

Tell me or link to me what your dream outfit is. If you wrote a feel good fashion post this week, link to it in the comments!

Dude! I have a bella band that I wear when I’m doing yoga in a class and for when I’m feeling like my pants are sagging too much! It’s a fantastic tool, and I actually bought one a size too small to help smooth things out. ;)

PS: You look fabulous in your outfit, girl!!! Keep rockin’!
