How was everyone’s weekend? I came back from Miami on Saturday night after a whirlwind two days. It was one of those trips that was so much fun, but I came back even more exhausted. Does anyone else get so wiped out from flying? Whether I’m flying one hour or cross country, it always sucks all the energy out of me.
Needless to say, yesterday, I wore the above outfit. I was craving comfort and didn’t want to be bothered with much makeup or thinking about what to wear. To be honest, normally, I wouldn’t post this outfit on the blog. I feel like it’s not “blog worthy,” but I’ve gotten quite a few requests for more casual outfits, so here you go.
These Golden Goose sneakers, which I always get a ton of questions on, are definitely a splurge, but they’re pretty much 1 out of 2 sneakers that I always wear. While they did take a few wears to break in, now they’re incredibly comfy! I’m not the biggest sneaker person, but I do like having a pair I love for the days I want 100% pure comfort.
Do you all want to see more casual outfits or nah?

You always look great! But uber-casual isn’t my fave. I gain far more inspiration from your take on amped-up basics, etc. 🙂

Hi Francine,
Totally understand that! Thank you for your input – always appreciated!

I don’t know if it’s an algorithm, but your ig profile has completely disappeared from my ig account, has this happened to any of your followers before? I am going through Helena withdrawal!
December 10, 2018Gabrielle
Me toooo!!! I am so sad – I literally always watched your stories and your IG was always first, and now I have to go find you!! I don’t know what happened. Happy someone else said the same!
December 10, 2018Helena
ugh! this makes me so sad! 🙁
I try not to let the algorithm get to me, but comments like this make me realize it really is the case. I’ve heard that in order for my stuff to show up, particularly Instagram photos, you have to “like” and engage with my content so Instagram shares it. It’s bizarre and annoying, but I guess that’s the thing to do!
Thank you for for sharing! xo

I’m glad you posted this outfit on the blog, because while I do appreciate the glamorous and pretty outfits, I can totally relate to this.
December 10, 2018Rach
I get wiped out too. It’s so funny because in a plane you’re juste sitting and somehow it is exhausting! Your puffer coat is awesome!

Oh no..no sunglasses deets? Please please share
December 11, 2018Helena
Hi Ania,
December 11, 2018Sorry about that! They’re Le Specs and I just updated with the link.

Thanks for sharing this outfit! I love dressing up as well, but with an increasingly active toddler I find myself reaching out for the Goose sneakers more often than I would like. Oh well at least they’re stylish 😜
How Do you like those Commando leggings? I’ve been eyeing them for a while. How would they look with an oversized knit you think?
December 11, 2018Helena
I love them and especially love them with just that – an oversized knit! They’re not 100% comfortable at first, but stretch and get more comfy after 1-2 wears.
December 11, 2018Vivian Fellman
Yes yes yes!! I love casual looks too. That makes you real. Kind of sick of seeing some bloggers only do glamorous and lavished looks. I like the fact that we still keep it real because we are the real human beings that’ll deal with the daily sh$t every day. Love you, girl! ❤️
December 11, 2018Helena
So glad! xoxo
December 11, 2018andrea
Love all your posts, but definitely into casual looks! Keep ’em coming!
December 11, 2018sam
Definitely YAY.
I have the freestyle short down style from SAM and while it’s definitely a casual look, I still consider it an “amped up basic” with the shiny exterior and boxier cut. Elevates any casual outfit.
December 11, 2018Claire
Love this outfit! 😍👟 just bought my first pair of GGB sneakers on black Friday and they are worth it! more casual outfits please!!
December 11, 2018Helena
So glad you love them! and hearing all of you – more casual outfits!

Chic as always! You are the reason I bought my first Golden Goose ( and not only) this past summer and I think a casual outfit on the blog is very refreshing. :)) Mom of 2,5 year old so totally relatable. Kristina
December 11, 2018Helena
Hi Kristina,
December 11, 2018I’m so glad you love them!

More casual outfits!
December 11, 2018Maria rivera
Hi Helena.What are your thoughts on Dad sneakers? I wanted to buy a pair of their cute butt I’m also terrified of them LOL. What do you think?
December 11, 2018Helena
Hi Maria,
Ehhh .. not my favorite! Some others can pull them off, but overall, I cannot get on board. Sorry!
December 11, 2018Kara
Omg yes! This is so cute and would love to see more posts like it. Mom of a Baby here and I’d love some insiration for true every day looks that are practical, yet stylish and put together. To me, this is the best post in a long time because it’s totally real and helpful. Not a lot of bloggers are doing this.
December 11, 2018Helena
Hi Kara,
Thank you so much for your feedback! Helps so much to know that you all want to see more looks like this!
December 11, 2018Jean
Love your dresses up outfits but love this too! Def love to see more casual outfits!
December 11, 2018Maleah Glass
Yes, love the casual fit inspo! I love all of your outfits but would literally have nowhere to wear something like many of them! San Diego is so very laid back but I love the NY style so this is a happy medium! Thanks from the west coast, Helena!
December 12, 2018NEale gilbert
I love the casual style!! Love how you do both effortlessly!

This is great. I’d enjoy seeing more of your take on casual outfits.
December 12, 2018Camille K
Love seeing you in casual wear. I think a good mix would be good. Love this puffer, I need a new one as I’m mostly in casual wear/athleisure. I feel like I move faster when in casual wear.haha
