Hallie Abrams builds her ideal Tuesday outfit from sneakers and wide-leg pants up through a white muscle top with built-in shaping and a beaded necklace. She wears a size 26 jeans but prefers the roomier 25, and picks pieces that hide what she calls her "schmabubble" without needing to tuck.
I've been doing spring planning with my one-on-one styling clients, and so then I'm also doing some spring wardrobe planning for myself. And this is one of those like perfect everyday— this is like a Tuesday outfit, like a really good Tuesday outfit. So let's talk from the bottom up. First of all, what makes it a good Tuesday outfit? Sneakers, because who doesn't love wearing sneakers, right? A low-profile sneaker like this looks much better with a wide-leg pant than like a Hoka, which I also happen to love, but it would be too heavy, too bulky on the bottom. Then we have to talk about these jeans, which are my new favorite for two reasons. One, they're super comfortable and lightweight, and two, they run really big. I'm a 26, like, across the board on jeans. The 26 was falling off of me. I reordered the 25, and those even have quite a bit of room. So they're meant to be a little bit of like not a low rise, but I'll call it like a low slung, like they're sitting more on your hips. But I could go to a 24, which just makes my, you know, teenage self do a little heart pitter-patter. I like them in the tush. They're easy. Then white top, but not just a plain white t-shirt, right? It has elastic at the bottom so you don't have to worry about the tucking or not tucking. It's like perfectly bloused. I like that it's more of a muscle tee, so if you don't like this little bubble that's right there, it hides it. By the way, I looked at my wedding pictures. Even then I had the schmabubble. I just didn't know to think that anybody was— should be self-conscious about it, but people are. And then I've been wearing this. I was going to say the bejeebers, but I've been wearing this all the time. There's something about beaded necklace or a leather necklace that just is— it's like finishes an outfit, but it's not too dressy, but it's not too casual. And I love the pop of red. So there you go, my favorite new Tuesday outfit. What's your Tuesday outfit?
