Game Day Chic

If you hadn't guessed, I'm not a huge sports girl. But I do love to rally around with the crew once a year and watch (or at least drink my way through) the Superbowl. Last year I felt like a fish out of water in a little brown Calypso dress, black tights and Frye boots --I was trying to be "rustic"-- when the other girls were rocking jerseys and *gasp* in some cases, even sweats.

This year I decided to throw in the towel and wear something team-themed (even though my team is not in the game), and was especially inclined to do so in honor of the Packers after catching a matinee of "Lombardi" today. I wanted a great little top like the ones they carry on the NFL website, but nothing was to be found. Josh and I roamed the streets from west to east and stopped into every appropriate store in on the way. We almost hopped in a cab and headed all the way down but after calling our desired spot, it was determined that no Packers gear existed--especially in small, cute sizes--anywhere. In the end, Josh found me a cute kid's tee at Modell's and tomorrow I'll rock it with some black leggings. Not a bad solution!

Victoria's Secret PINK carries the cutest NFL gear and I wanted one of their bedazzled jerseys or fitted little pants with "Packers" written across the tush. After trying the location near Josh, we did journey to the 34th Street location but they had niente for tomorrow. But I did pick up a great pair of comfy blue Giants sweatpants that will come in handy next year ;)
