Everyday Dressing || Comfy Kicks + High Waisted Leggings

I’m not a spontaneous person. I’m a planner. I like to be prepared. In the summer months, if we have a beach day, I like to prep snacks and lunches, pack up the bags, and put the towels + toys in the car the evening before. So, I’m not really sure what came over me yesterday morning when I decided, on a whim, to take Harper, by myself, to Disneyland. I guess this weekend’s past trip gave me a little boost of confidence….

I asked people on stories if they thought I was “brave” or just plain “cray.” The response was mixed. You see, Harper is a runner. As in “don’t even try to make me stand in that line, my legs need to move” kind of toddler. So, the thought of being three quarters of the way through a line and having her bolt, without help, made me kinda nervous…. In the end, she did great. We had a few running instances, but all in all, I can’t complain… and she took a long afternoon nap… even better…..

So, given my new found sense of spontaneity, and my toddler who just loves to move her legs, I needed toss on something comfortable + practical, in a hurry. As always, I reached for my go-to basic black leggings (added benefit because they’re high waisted) and distressed denim jacket as a top layer. I knew my feet needed something comfortable, so I tossed on these new kicks… and let me tell you, they’re 100% in the comfort department. Buuuut, I wouldn’t expect anything less from them, since they’re UGG. Which, up until recently, I honestly didn’t know made everyday sneaks. Nordstrom has a great selection of their sneaker line and I love this perforated pair (comes in tons of colors, but the quartz color is my fav) and cute little slip on pair. They also have a wide selection of UGG’s cozy wear that can easily be worn with above mentioned shoes. A few that I have my eye on include this zip hoodie (which is a great transitional piece) or this basic black pullover, paired with these gray leggings.

I was just glad I had them in my closet for my solo Disney adventure with little miss…. I mean, the last thing people needed to see was a mom running, after her toddler, with a limp because of shoes that give her a blister……
