The Softest, Most Comfortable Outfit I’ve Found
I want to tell you that Oprah was right. In November, I posted about a Primaloft coat that made “Oprah’s Favorite Things List,” and I decided to try a few other things she had on her list. The best, softest, most comfortable outfit I’ve found was due to her list.

Warning – this outfit is on the expensive side. I’m working hard to try and find a similar option for you because I want everyone to experience this comfort level. I ordered a Two Piece Crewneck Pullover Tracksuit Outfit in purple, and when it comes in, I’ll let you know what I think.

I can’t even begin to describe the fabric of this set. It is incredibly soft and feels like a Ponte knit, except it is almost silky.

I’ve worn this outfit multiple times, even a few days in a row. Don’t judge me until you try this. Lol!

I was trying to get a photo where you could see the fabric better, but black is very hard to photograph, and this fabric is very smooth and silky.

This half zip does not cover your rear, but since these aren’t leggings, that’s fine by me.

This black crossbody is the perfect size, and I took it to Miami with me. It looks similar to the Saint Laurent Lou bag but at a savings of over $1,670! If you missed my post on Popular Designer Inspired Handbags and Shoes for Less, go check that out now.

I love these wide leg pants, but I’ll just tell you that Joe isn’t a big fan. He much prefers me in leggings (go figure), but he understood why I was wearing them once he felt them. Lol! The medium in the half zip and pants fit me great. I was surprised since I usually wear a large in this brand, but these run large, so size down.

The Nike Air Max Dawn Sneakers are a pair that my DIL wears all the time and raves about. So, I ordered myself a pair because they look so good with black leggings, which I tend to wear the most. I was amazed at how cushy they were, and from day one, they felt great. I knew I would be doing a ton of walking in the airports on my recent trip, so I gambled and wore this entire outfit returning home from Miami. Woohoo! My feet were happy, and so was I. These run TTS, and I’m wearing my usual size 9.

Since I loved the black set soooo much, I decided to get another set in classic navy.

I love the half-zip, and I can’t wait to wear it with jeans or white pants. The top is high quality; it is a great weight that isn’t too thick or too thin. I’ll be able to wear this top all the way until it gets really hot, and that probably won’t be until June.

I’ve never seen this sleeve element on any other top. It is a notch instead of a thumb hole. I’m not sure what the purpose of the notch is, but I think it is a cool design feature.

As you can see from this photo, the classic navy color of the top and pants aren’t the same. I’m so bummed that they are different shades of navy. I really wanted to keep this entire outfit, but I will send back the pants since they don’t match. I’ll get a ton of wear from the top with other pants, but I’m not sure I would wear the pants much without the matching top.

I really like the fit, feel, and shape of these pants. I’m thinking about waiting a week or two and ordering them again to see if I get a different color batch. But my bet is that the color will be the same.
This outfit goes under the “treat yourself” or the IYKYK (If You Know You Know) heading. Let me know if you’ve tried the Air Essentials line and what you think.
Features I Loved About the Outfit
- The fabric is incredibly soft, almost silky, and feels like a Ponte knit.
- Wide leg pants are stylish and comfortable.
- The fit is generous (size down!), making it easy to find a flattering look.
- The half-zip top is high quality with a great weight, neither too thick nor too thin.
- Unique sleeve notch design adds an interesting style element.
Potential Downsides I Noticed
- The outfit is on the expensive side.
- The classic navy set had mismatched shades between the top and pants.
- The half-zip does not cover your rear (though not an issue since these aren’t leggings).

Love the outfit but would definitely need to order a less expensive version. I didn’t realize Spanx had so many clothing options.
I’m definitely anxiously awaiting the inexpensive alternative to this outfit. It is cute but not worth that price in my opinion.
I know that you two are not looking forward to having to sprint through an airport. Hopefully you won’t have a carry on bag in tow, which can slow you down. I am not familiar with the brand of the outfits. I wore a pair of cropped wide legged jeans one day and Larry shared how odd he thought they looked, but he likes the full length wide legged Banana Republic white jeans I have. Go figure!
So cute! You look so comfortable!
I like the wide leg pants. I wish I could find petite ones. I did find petite bootleg athletic pants at Macy’s.
I read in the email about your 45 minutes to catch a flight. This happened to my sister and me when we were flying from Germany to US after leaving Israel. I barely made it because I had to make a potty stop. Some of the people in our tour didn’t make it and had to take other flights. Ours was the only straight flight from Germany to Austin TX. Don’t drink much so you don’t have to make any stops. Let us know what happens.
Spanx is too expensive for me. especially for this casual outfit
Those look amazing. I can almost feel the softness.
the outfit looks cute and comfy. and honestly, most of your clothes are on the expensive side. But I just accept that your budget is different than mine, and I follow your look and know what I can pair together, etc. Thanks for all the work you put into finding cheaper alternatives.
Vicki, I do try hard to showcase clothing from all price points. I realize everyone has a different clothing budget, and I want everyone to look great.
Love AirEssentials! I got the tapered pants and ‘got-ya-covered’ pullover top in navy. (My navy top & bottom color did match)
Oooh!!! Thanks, I might try them again!
Love the black but you are right about the navy.
