Fashion Friday: Sweats are the New Black....OMFG...Wooo Hooo!

We blame American Apparel for their AMAZING off the shoulder, sloppy seconds sweatshirts...from last year

Or maybe we can blame Juicy for making Velour tracksuits day wear...SOOOOO happy those Juicy days are far far far behind us all.

**If you are still wearing matching top and bottom tracksuits...TAKE THEM OFF NOW. Donate them to the Goodwill and be on your way.**

...Who ever is to blame for the whole sweats in the day thing...we thank you!!!

See...you didn't think we were gonna say that did you?

But as we sit here typing in the cutest drop crotch, heather grey sweats ever looking quite cute(If we do say so ourselves) with our striped cardi and worn out tee shirt to match we can't help but thank the people responsible!.

Not us but such a great way to wear the new Fashion Sweats....

Sweats have come a looong way from those horrible ones of the recent past. They are full on fashion now!

So super fashion that they are giving them hardcore details to kick your ass in the best smashion-y way possible...

They marched down the runways of Isabel Marant (LOOOOVVEEEE), Burbury, Alexander Wang, Marc Jacobs to name a few (and out faves of course)

OK, now Miss me and I are no strangers to wearing sweats with vintage tees and converse, (our uniform last summer) but it was like a gift from the fashion Gods that they became fashion with the new styles that are out...

Monsieur A. Wang has thrown out Feats (Fashion Sweats...pronounced F-ets..rhymes with sweats) for the last few seasons and we really gotta get down and kiss his cute lil tootsies for that. And this last season he really F'd us up with his Athlete meets fashionista meets Mcgipster.

GIVE US THIS RE-FUCKING-TARDED TOP PLEASE!!!!! OMGGGGGGG...HELP!

Ugggh he even made matters worse (in the cutest way) with his new line of underwear and workout-ish wear. We are dying over these Hanes-esque boy undies!

These would look soooo super cute under baggy jeans. Oh...well look who it is...

Damn her and her cute fucking outfit.

What do you get when you mix the 80's, Punk(ish), and sweats? Ashish!

Their hardcore detailing of these 80's sweats is pretty funny and rad.

Throw on a denim jacket (not moto style...too much) and worn out tee and "look who the fashionista dragged in"

They also tried to give Mr Wang a run for his moolah with their rolled hem cropped sweatshirt.

Now you maybe asking.."Um hi...Not all of us have abs o' steel like a 10 year old supermodel or Gwen Stefani..."

That's ok! Wear this with...A. High waisted baggy shorts...B. with a hanes tank under..Tada!

Not ready to go full force with your Feats? Sauce's pink studded versions are perfecto for the girl on the verge...
Baggy tee, flip flops, side braid...done and cutely done!

Ooooohhhh honey...we lurve us some good details. And this twisted back sweatshirt from Urban is no exception.
Skinny jeans, buckled wedges (rad ones) and you, our loves, are RTG!

Oh dear LORD....What ...who...what????? Huh???

Snake drop crotch "sweat shorts"?????

3.1 Phillip Lim...you butt head!!!!! We are crazy in heartville with these shorts!!!!!!!!!

How the F are we gonna get these and wear them???

JCrew gives us a good ole spanking with their super rad zipper bottom version.
We love that they paired them with yummy Gladiators!

But we would also LOVE to wear them with our still favorite pair of "Cons"...the Ash Virgins!

Hello rad Cheap Monday Shredded Feats top! We heart you!!!!

We are going to get you and wear you with army pants and flip flops or converse!

Thank goodness XXI got on the band wagon too! Yesterday someone we know well (OK me) was wearing a rad grommet shoulder Feats top from them and people thought it was some $$$ designer!
This studded shoulder XXI top is not the one we were wearing but super similar and...yeah...hi...it's $18. Done and Done!

Oh hi....yeah that's right..Feats come in all forms now...even super cute vests!
Throw this bad boy on with a looong slouchy tank dress and watch out!

So whether your jogging...shopping...or just running around throw on some fantastic Feats!

You will kiss us later (especially after having to spend the whole day in work clothes or skinnies)

xoxo things we heart

Yummies:We Heart... Oooooey Gooooey Stickey Amazing Caramel...

Welcome Fall! How have you been? We want to apologize to you for a couple of reasons...

#1. Sorry we keep saying how much we looooove Summer...we do but it's not because we don't heart you too...we just heart flip flops, the beach and warmth

#2. Well that's really it...but guess what? We heart you too!

Snuggley Cashmere from White and Warren

You want to know why? Because we lurve cashmere, sitting by the fire and fall sweets! Sure ice cream and summer fruits are divine but nothing beats yummy gooey caramel!

Thank you for your warm and inviting caramels, fall..thank you for how fantastical they taste and feel in our mouths! Ooooohhhh...we are drooling a little..hold on...let me get a Caramello to attempt to satisfy my caramel craving..

Ok...we are back and RTG about our fav fall sweet...CARAMEL! ooopsie...sorry for yelling..we are just super excited...

Caramel is such a simple sweet, from heated sugar comes a golden sweetness that could really only come from the heavens...that is if heaven was filled with gooey sweetness...and we think it is ;)...well that, Unicorns and Crumbs Cupcakes.

Our heart affair with Caramel came when we were in 2nd grade at our friend JP's house making Caramel Apples for Halloween.

There is nothing like the sound of the crinkling plastic wrapper coming off the golden Kraft Caramels...the smell of dipping bright green apples into warm golden liquid...waiting for them to cool on the wax paper...UGHGHHG amazing! Sooo worth the wait.

Here is crazy easy recipe for delish Caramel Apples and the easiest place to find Kraft Caramels.

Um hi...sometimes you get really lucky in the gift department and this last Winter was not exception.

A friend (now we consider them family for such a yummy gift...and we are going to invite them again..shhh) brought us these unbelievable Fleur De Sel Caramels from Joan's on Third, here in LA. One taste and we were hooked!

We are not sure what it is...but Sea Salt and Caramel are a match made in heaven! The salty sweet stickiness is TDF!!!!

Joan's doesn't sell them online but we found these yummy replacements that look just as amazing... Trust us...you're welcome ;)

Speaking on FDS (Fleur De Sel) Caramels...Trader Joes makes suuuuper good ones that come in an uber cute tub. And PS...if they are from TJs you know they are yummy and crazy affordable!

Close your eyes...are they closed? Oh wait..then you can't read this.. OK don't close them but imagine gooey warm caramel sauce poured over vanilla ice cream in a glass bowl....OMG right?

So like a warm hug from your lover!

We found this sauce once in a gift basket from the Chocolate Bar and have been hooked ever since.

It's really rich and thick and when drizzled over ice cream, bread pudding or brownies it's like heaven on Earth. You could probably pour it over anything and it would taste amazing.

Don't feel like waiting for your ooooey gooooey sauce to come? DIY it hot stuff! Our Goddess of the Kitchen, Ina Garten, will show you the way.

Yuummm....molten chocolate cake...mmmmmm. Your dinner guests won't believe their eyes or noses when the get a glimpse of one.

But what do you think they will do when they put their spoon into it and gooey warm caramel flows out from the center with the fudgey goodness?

Um, they will probably kiss you and come back the next day.

We found an amazing recipe here at 2stews!

Remember the long lasting, amazing taste bud tickling fun of eating a Sugar Daddy?

The slightly salty, yet totally sweet caramel lollipop that lasted for hours!

You can still find them and they are every bit as good as you remember...

Now that you are a wee bit older, how about trying a shmancy version of the Sugar Daddy ?

Our fav ice cream brand, Ben and Jerry's is super on the caramel bandwagon too this fall!...Wooooo hoooo!!

Now you can get their amazingness in Triple Caramel Chunk!!! What?!?!?!? Uh huh...TCC.

Need...this....now!

It's caramel ice cream, with caramel swirls and huge chunks of fudge covered caramel!!!!!

Wowowowow! Fire side...in cashmere jammies...eating this! Yes please!!!!!

Want the chocolate covered caramels with out the ice cream? It is just as fun and totally decadent.

The famous Fran's creates the most divine CCC (choc covered caramels) in the Northern Hemisphere!

Sprinkled with a touch of smoked sea salt...DONE AND DONE!

Bring these to your next dinner party for the host and they will invite you back for sure!...

But beware...they might tell their friends about you and then you'll have to bring them some to their parties and your wallet might be a bit thinner...

So if that is the case...make your own!

Take Kraft Caramels, yummy dark chocolate and gourmet sea salt.

Melt the choc...dip the caramels into (use a fork to hold them on the bottom side) lay on wax paper and sprinkle with salt (not too much!).

Easy Peasy!

Martha S. has amazing ideas on how to package home made goods so you can show up to that dinner party and be the fancy pants!

Some ridiculously cute Etsy seller and marshmallow extraordinaire makes caramel marshmallows and they are every bit as delish as they look...

MMmmmmmmmmm drop one of those in your hot chocolate...just saying...HEAVEN!

Oh geez...here we go...the ultimate....the fantastical...baked goods with caramel!!!!!!

We can not wait to make this warm caramel apple strudel...

Hurry friends...throw a casual dinner party so I can make this and bring it over!

Here are a few famous gourmet chocolate and caramel makers around the US...
