4 quick fixes to dress up your yoga pants

Check these out, too...

  • Ed. obsession under $20: Primp out your keyboard
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
Tired of looking like you just rolled out of bed in your trusty black yoga pants? Change up your daily outfit with out actually having to change in the a.m. by adding a few cute accessories or tops. Check out below for four tips that have you heading out the door looking flawless, while actually having just rolled right out of bed.

 

Flowered and flouncy

Add some color to a normal school outfit with a loose flowy tunic in a graphic flower print. (Psst: it’s just as comfy as a baggy sweatshirt.)

 

 

Contrast Floral Blouse, $18, forever21.com

 
Instant shine
Just don’t have the effort to change into a pair of jeans for a night out with friends? A sequin top will instantly dress up your black yoga pants and draw the attention up top. Add cute flats and you’re set. Sweet!
 

Mini Scattered Sequin Tee, $13 (on sale!), charlotterusse.com

 
Bright Footed
Rocking your yoga pants with sneakers or boat shoes is sooo boring! Draw attention down with brightly colored flats that are super comfy. We heart TOMS for their good karma-promoting “one for one” project.
 

TOMS ‘Lina’ Ballet Flat, $80, nordstrom.com

 

2-second fix

Throwing on an over-sized white cotton tee and yogas is just fine. But why not add a long necklace to take your look boho-chic in less time than it takes to brush your hair.

mod mod mod!!!!
because of my I am Catholic, i wear skirts that are below the knee and tops that dont dip below about 2 fingers (placed side by side) under the collarbone or have too short sleeves.
Soooo... first, it's really hard to find skirts that come below the knee that aren't all floaty and feminine- NOT me!!;) Any idea where I can find some?
Second, I basically live in t-shirts. What would look good with a skirt that's not a t-shirt but not formalish??
Finally, I'm going to my cousin's baby shower in May and I have no idea what to wear! what should I do??
thank you so much in advance!!!

mod mod mod my mom wont let me wear yoga pants because she says they're athletic pants not school pants, however she lets my sister wear soccer shorts to school every single day. and she doesn't like the way i look in them... i work out for a reason.




Hey girlie,

Try to compromise with her! If you really love the way they look, ask if you can wear them one day a week as a "casual" day. Don't get emotional, cry, or say things like "But you let HER wear athletic pants to school!" Be mature and try to reason with her. But if she ends up saying no, it's not the end of the world. Yoga pants aren't the only cozy fashion choices out there! Smile Try leggings with a skirt or dress, jeggings, or cozy linen pants instead!

What underwear should I wear with yoga pants/spandex?
I would love to wear my yoga pants to school but my underwear line shows way to much, and same with my spandex for running (although I'm not as worried with those, haha I run with all girls).
I know thongs would work, but I don't have any and I'm not sure if I could ask my mom for some (I'm in highschool, and like everyone has them... but I'd just feel really awkward.)
Suggestions? Thank you!




Hey girlie,

I love wearing Victoria's Secret Cheeky style panties - they're kinda like thongs but give you a little bit more coverage, which might make mom feel less awkward Smile It's worth explaining the situation and asking her to help you pick a good seamless bikini bottom or thong for your yoga pants/tighter fitting bottoms! It'll freak you out at first, but I'm sure she'll understand!

I find myself a little bit overweight and I really want to lose it fast. I was wondering if I should do this. Should I? I also need help with a guy. I like this guy from my tennis class but hes really shy and doesn't talk a lot. How can I start a convo with him to become friends with him?thanks!


Hey girl, to put it simply, NO. I cannot stress enough the importance of eating a well-balanced diet. Starving yourself is never the answer, no matter how fast you want to lose weight. Crash dieting is extremely dangerous and can lead to long-term health issues. We want to keep you as safe and as healthy as possible, so please realize that not eating is never the answer. You're still growing--your body needs proper nourishment. If you want to get in better shape, start by doing 30-45 minutes of exercise each day. Challenge yourself by making the workout intense, but be sure to take a break if you need to. Cut out as much junk food as possible and aim to eat at least 5-6 servings of fruits and veggies every day along with whole grains (like oatmeal or whole wheat bread), and lean sources of protein (chicken, fish, yogurt). Remember to check with your doctor, too, to ensure that you are staying as healthy as possible! As for the guy you like, try challenging him to a tennis match or ask him about his summer plans. Once you make him feel comfortable, chances are he wil be more likely to talk to you. Be friendly by saying hi to him at the beginning of each class and make him feel welcome--you'll be friends soon enough!

I really want to look like Hermione Granger from Harry Potter in this pic: http://images.wikia.com/harrypotter/images/7/7b/Emma-watson-as-hermione-granger-in-harry-potter.jpg
How can I look like her? I mean with hair and makeup and everything? Thanks




Hey girlie,

For the hair, try our tips for Ashley Greene's wavy locks or Jennifer Lawrence's gorgeous wavy tresses! It'll look slightly different because your hair has its own texture, but the wavy style will totally mimic the movie! As for makeup, keep it natural: a foundation will even out your skin tone, while some light chocolate brown eyeliner will define your eyes. Finish with a nude lip balm or rosy pink lipstick - and you're all set! Smile

I need advice. Im extremely quiet and its not very easy for me to have conversations with people. I just can't think of things to say and It's SO annoying! Because of this a lot of my friendships aren't very deep. Well over spring break on of my really good friends is going to spend the night at my house. Its just going to be her and I (I don't want to invite our other friends since they're always hyper and you can never sleep because they might do something to you while your sleep lol) and I don't want it to be awkward. She's always good about talking, but I don't want her to be doing all the work. Can you help me with tips for keeping a conversation going? and also how to get a deeper friendship? THANKS!!!!




Hey girlie,

That's great that she's coming over! Bonding with a friend one-on-one is way easier than chatting in a group or talking at school, where you feel like all eyes are on you. Getting a deeper friendship is something that happens over time when you trust her with secrets, depend on each other when things are bad, celebrate with each other when things are good, and basically share your lives/interests/conversations with each other. So just go with the flow during your sleepover. Try doing active things so you always have something to talk about, like baking together, watching a movie, playing Truth or Dare, surfing the internet, etc. Talk about your fave movies or music, your crushes, school, other friends... don't feel pressure to start a convo, just stay calm and go along with it! Like I said, becoming BFFs takes time - so you'll settle into it and feel way more comfy by morning Smile Have fun!!!

I love the hunger games. at the begining of spring break my mom said that after spring break i could go with my friends to see the movie. after spring break i asked her what day would work for the movie and she said she is thinking about not letting me see it because all the critics said it was graphic and not really for kids my age. i have read the books so i know when graphic scenes may be coming but do you have any tips on getting her to let me go?



Hey girlie,

have a serious discussion with her and let her know how you've already read the book and you feel that you would not be seeing anything bad based off of what you've read.

Hey girl,

Your mom's an adult and can read what she likes, but if it makes you feel uncomfortable to hear that conversation it's okay to ask her to talk to her friends about it when you're not around.

Ok sso basicaly all my shirts are like fitted graphic tees like from abercrombie. I really want other shirts that arent fitted.
Where can u find them for cheap. And idk about forever 21 because the mall close to us doesnt have one.


Hey girl,

If you love Forever21, you can always order online! You can also try discount stores like T.J. Maxx and Marshall's for great bargains. Otherwise, take a look at some other mall stores and department stores to see what you can find!
