Day and Night Pants

March 14, 2020 Caroline Tullis

Ever have two different pairs of colored pants that you want to wear but can’t decide which? Well, what if I told you could wear BOTH colored pants in one pair of pants at the same time?! It’s your lucky day because I have the perfect solution thanks to … Day and Night pants!

Please excuse my cheesy infomercial intro 😂 But in all seriousness, these pants by Choosy are actually perfect when you can’t decide on a color. And the two sides combined into one pair makes the pants look so funky and cool, and that’s what I love most about them. They fit right in with my spunky and bold sense of style and personality! I like to call these pants my “Day and Night” pants because one side looks like daytime and one side looks like nighttime. It’s actually very relevant because they are literally referred to as “Day and Night” pants on Choosy’s website. It also made it a lot easier and convenient to title this post!

I originally found these pants through Instagram when an ad for them came up on the stories. I thought, “Wow, these pants look so fun. I need to check them!” And so I did, and it struct me that they were only $75. For funky pants like these? Honestly, not that’s one damn good deal! But instead of buying them right away, I decided to put it on my Christmas gift list and see if I would get it. I actually was a little surprised when I opened it on Christmas morning. I did not think my parents would actually get them for me!

Y’all, I couldn’t even believe how many compliments I received from wearing them. I was on a shift for my job at Francesca’s a few weekends ago and a few guests and my manager, said they looked so cool. I also went to my Great Grandma’s 104 birthday party (yep, she’s still thriving!) later that day and I received even more compliments. I didn’t even think they would like them that much, so that was definitely a feel-good surprise!

You can bet your boots that I’ll be wearing this pants for more family events to come 😉

My favorite top to wear with these pants is my black bodysuit turtleneck from Altar’d State, which actually matches the funky style of the pants thanks to the long bell sleeves! I also saw on Choosy’s website and Instagram that a lot girls wearing the pants wearing military combat boots with them, so I like to stick with the trend and wear my black Steve Madden military combat boots with them. Adds even more of a spunk to the look!

Classy, Sassy, and A Little Badassy

January 9, 2020 Caroline Tullis

“I only work in black… and sometimes very, very dark grey.”

One of the greatest quotes by Batman from one of the greatest movies of all time… The LEGO Movie. This all-black outfit gave me the perfect excuse to use that quote for the post.

Do any of you have one particular outfit in your wardrobe that instantly makes you feel like a badass when you wear it? Those kinds of outfits that make you feel like you can conquer the world simply just by putting it on? From a chic leather jacket to a pair of boss lady high heels, there’s nothing better than a classy but sassy look that makes you feel badassy! There you go, that’s the title for this post!

Just call me Dr. Freaking Seuss 🤓


I have quite a few outfits in my wardrobe that boost my confidence, but the one that definitely makes me feel most badass is my crisscross cropped turtleneck from Zara combined with my faux leather leggings from Target. I’m not going to lie, this outfit makes me feel like a spy with the all-black tone 😂I’m not complaining about that though, spies are pretty badass! Even the ones who look like Nicholas Cage and steal the Declaration of Independence ... ANWAYS, to accessorize the outfit, I paired it with little gold drop earrings, a gold rhinestone coin pendant necklace from Francesca’s and my black combat boots by Steve Madden.

This OOTD was inspired by one of my three girl crushes: the lovely and amazing Emma Watson (Anna Kendrick and Candace Cameron Bure being the other two). She wore this outfit a few years ago while she was a promo tour for the live action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast and shared it on her fashion Instagram account The Press Tour. I love how she paired the black cropped turtleneck and black pants to make it into an elegant yet killer fashion statement. Emma is one of our generation’s biggest fashion icons (in my opinion, but definitely very obvious). She has a modestly chic yet FIERCE touch to her style that never fails to turn heads!

One thing I love most about this look is that it’s a spunky type of glam and makes me feel fierce when I’m wearing it, but it still has a modest touch to it, just like Emma’s outfit. It shows a little bit of my skin, but not too much of it. And I’d rather be modest like that rather than try to show off any more of it. I think there’s something kind of sexy about modesty, which I hope can become a bigger trend as time goes on. I actually saw a quote about modesty by Emma Watson herself, who I think sets a good example when it comes to dressing with a purpose. The quote came pretty convenient for this post, if I do say so myself! She said:

“My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal, the more people wonder.”

~ Emma Watson

Very wise words from a very wise woman that I highly respect and admire. Way to be classy, sassy and badassy all at once, Emma!
