As I sit here in drinking my coffee and ponder what I couldn't live without, I start to feel like a pageant contestant. What is the most politically correct answer? World peace, friendship, conservation, family...you get the idea.

Don't get me wrong, I am all for the 'right' answers. But, for some reason, I'm feeling a little selfish today and as I ask myself what I can't live without I come up with a purely indulgent item. I realize the answer is right in front of me. Well, not exactly in front of me, but on me. I absolutely cannot live without my comfy Victoria Secret sweats.

I don't know what age it happens and the number probably changes with each individual. But, what I do know is that at a certain point in a person's life, comfort takes precedence over many things in life. I think it starts with comfortable shoes and progresses to other parts of our wardrobe.

For me comfort comes in the form of comfortable sweatpants. I don't mean just any sweats, I have tried many different kinds over the years and finally found and fell in love with Victoria Secrets Pink collection sweats. Are they trendy? Maybe. Nevertheless, for me they are a major factor in my comfort level.

Have you ever found an article of clothing you love so much, that you cannot live without it? A particular shirt, pair of pants or jacket you bought in several different colors. That's how it was for me after I bought my first pair of Victoria Secret sweats. Maybe it's self-indulgent, but I hit that time in my life where comfort was important awhile back.

The sweats are warm, comfortable and something I look forward to throwing on after a long day. They are attractive enough, that I feel fine running errands in them. One of the reasons that they are my favorite may have to do with the fact the sweats tend to run a bit larger than I'm use to. Maybe that's another reason I can't live without these sweats. I get to buy a size smaller!

good point - people who are uncomfortable tend to be irritable!
