Simple Styling Tips to Dress Up Loungewear

Swapping a cardigan for a blazer and socks for heels.

I'm currently typing this snuggled up in a big sweater (my Burton one actually that I snowboard in) and a soft blanket, drinking hot peppermint tea to keep me somewhat warm. It's raining so hard outside I can hardly hear my own thoughts, but I must admit, I've learnt to love this weather. It is definitely a great excuse to park yourself on the couch or, even better, in a hot bath and relax.

In my case though, I've spent a part of my day updating my editorial calendar for the next couple of months, a task that never fails to spark a lot of inspiration. I've been so motivated recently, posting almost every single day here on Lion in the Wild and I still have so much content to share with you. I've really enjoyed blogging daily, even though it is a ridiculous amount of work and keeps me very busy. If you have any requests for blog posts, don't forget to let me know in the comments below or send me a Tweet.

Speaking of being busy (when are we not, seriously?), I've been running around here, there and everywhere recently. One of the reasons for that is because the parcel delivery people in my area don't seem to know how to knock on my door and instead leave me with a "We Missed You" note, even though I was home the whole day. [Insert frustration here.] Does anyone else have this problem? Oh well, I guess it's an excuse to get out of the office and grab a large takeaway cappuccino, right?

This is actually such a great outfit for one of those days where you want to be comfy in the office, yet chic while you're out running errands. Essentially, this outfit is all about lounging around, but for the addition of some polished styling like the black blazer and pointed pumps. And you know what? As soon as I get home I swap the heels for thick socks and the blazer for a chunky cardigan. Now that is my type of outfit! Heh-heh-heh.
