Dear Baggy Sweatpants

"Wouldn't life be perfect if sweatpants were sexy?"

Dear Baggy Sweatpants,

You're awesome. Possibly my favorite type of attire ever, if you don't count boyfriend hoodies. Sadly, though, I recently found out that it is not very acceptable to wear you in Spain. As you know, I will be spending the next five months of my life there, so this poses a serious problem. What will I do without you? You're not confining, like jeans. You always fit me just right. I mean, no one's ever worried about not fitting into their "high school sweatpants", right? God knows you're the only one I want around when I'm sick. When I'm having a bad day, I snuggle up with you on my couch and watch TV. And every night, I fall asleep with you. We have bonded far too much to be separated for this amount of time. Please write.

Miss you already,
Fai

    OMG I am laughing so hard! I love it because I know exactly what you mean! I LOVE my sweats more than I love anything in the world!
    I am in nursing school and sweats have become a huge part of my life, so much that I am on a diet because I have grown "into" them. Whoops. I guess thats what happens when you wear them all the time!

    What are you going to be doing in spain?

    Sweat pants are pretty comfy, every time I come home I can't get comfortable until I get in some

    I am wearing sweatpants right now. In fact, if it's not sweatpants I prefer no pants. That's just how I roll. So unfortunate that Spain isn't as accpeting of elastic waistbands as the US is... Boo to that.

    I was always the girl in sweats in class because I was a dance major lol
    My goal was basically to just not smell when I had classes outside the dance department... over share? haha

    This is awesome. I feel the same way about my sweatpants! My mom made me get rid of mine because they were "old"... I told here they were just over loved! Hope you have a great weekend. Looking forward to reading more of your hilarious letters.

    xo, Kels

    Hahah, I think we both have the same bond with out sweats. I know guys though that actually like seeing a girl in sweatpants, compared to being overly stylish. I guess the situation depends. Great post!
    I'm following you (:
