We have another snowy day today in New York City. Sadly, it's not snowing enough to stick, and I had no excuse to "work from home." (Sigh.) I trekked into work with the rest of the commuters rocking snow boots, hoods and puffy coats. No one looked fabulous -- not even me. I should've worn sweatpants!

Before you laugh at me for saying that, consider this: sweats can be made chic.

I used to think it was impossible to look chic and comfortable at the same time. However, my friend, Wendy Toth, recently schooled me on how to wear sweatpants in public. As it turns out, wearing sweatpants does not necessarily equal looking sloppy. In fact, you can look uber-fabulous with basic pairs of the cozy bottoms.

Just look at how Wendy styled herself and her buds!

They were all wearing the same pair of $6 Fruit of the Loom men's fleece sweatpants from Walmart. You'd never know it! From countryside to old-school hip-hop, she has discovered the fabulous ways to be sloppy.
