Staying Cozy and Chic in Sweater Pants

If you follow me on twitter you may have read about my debate on purchasing what I thought were just "fancy sweat pants", you maybe saw my dressing room try on of what is actually a sweater for your legs, and you may have seen my new J.Crew purchase of sweater pants.

Sweater pants.  Let that sink in. Um, they are the most cozy comfy sweet pants I have, and I think pretty cute (and funny).

I defiantly got a few double takes.  Here are the sweater pants in the dressing room:

 And how I fashioned up these little comfy pants and wore to work and into the evening for a dinner night out:

 So these sweater pants... soooo very comfy and draped nicely.  I love the wide waist band and draw string closure. I was unsure about the tapped ankles, but just make the overall look of the pant fit very chic.  I mean, we wear sweaters on the top of our body...why not the on the bottom?  I love them.

 Would you wear sweaters on your lower body?
