I’ll be honest, I first heard about Cuddl Duds a few years ago when I was contacted to try out the brands “amazing” collection of thermal fleecewear.
As a lady living in Alaska (of all places) who could hardly keep warm, I jumped on the opportunity. Warm clothes and squat-proof leggings with moisture-wicking features are my ultimate guilty pleasure.
Speaking of leggings, I hope youβre not tired of seeing this Zella High Waist Leggings. Because I have this outfit styled with said leggings again ?.
Talk about getting the most wears out of your clothes ?ββοΈ. The Zella High Waist Leggings is so comfy that I find myself wearing it A.LOT. Itβs like comfort food for your skin haha. You can read my Zella leggings review here.

But on a more serious note, Iβm focusing on my Cuddl Duds fleecewear today as promised (with a full breakdown of my Cuddl Duds review below). You’ve probably heard the word about Cuddl Duds reviews. If you haven’t, I’ve got you covered!
I first crossed paths with Cuddl Duds fleecewear 3 years ago. I loved that it kept me warm and comfortable. So much so that I’ve added a few sets to my wardrobe since then.
So when it comes to βsparking joyβ from the things you own, you can bet that both Zella leggings and Cuddl Duds fleecewear rank darn high on my list.
The fleecewear is lightweight, soft and cozy. You almost forget that you are wearing clothes. Here, I paired the fleecewear top with my tried and true Zella leggings. You can read my Zella Live in High Waist Leggings review for more specifics about this Nordstrom label.
For reference, I wear a size XS or S (US 4) and weigh about 130 pounds.
I have a total of four pairs of Cuddl Duds. One of the pants fit a little too snug for my liking. The others? Perfect fit. Maybe it was a little defect or something.
This was a beautiful fall day. The leaves were starting to change colors. But there were some areas, like where I shot this outfit, that was still enjoying the tail end of summer. I think the black and grey pieces are a nice contrast to the colorful landscape behind me.
The fleecewear top, this figure-sculpting leggings with a no-slip waistband and a faux fur scarf were the right amount of layering I needed to withstand the mild cold.

This fleecewear and leggings combination without the faux fur is an outfit you can wear every day to run errands and grocery shopping. The faux fur definitely elevates the entire ensemble adding a tad bit of βbougie-nessβ to the look.
My tassel oxford loafers (similar) are really chic and comfortable. They do not have a thick cushion footbed. And interestingly, I donβt have any issues walking or standing in them for an extended time.
Given the style of shoe, I broke into them quickly and easily. However, the loafers make a sound when walking on hard surfaces. This might not be the attention you need if you arrive at work a little late ?.
That said, the pompom details are a lovely touch that moves elegantly with each footstep. You might not be able to see from the photo, but they are made from suede with a light fabric trim on the edges.
Although Iβve done this a few times, I suggest mixing and matching your Cuddl Duds fleecewear with other wardrobe staples like denim for a practical everyday look or work pants (like Betabrand yoga pants dress pants) instead of wearing the set from head to toe.
When dressed in Cuddl Duds fleecewear (top and bottom) from head to toe, your outfit might look overly comfy. And thatβs absolutely ok if thatβs the look youβre going for. If itβs not, try adding some statement jewelry (like this or this), a wristwatch, a handbag (this would be perfect), a pair of geeky glasses or dressier shoes (a pair of riding boots would be perfect).
Accessorizing a simple everyday outfit can be a game-changer. For me, it’s a pair of classic loafers with cute tassels and a faux fur scarf for some old Hollywood glam. This is definitely a practical look (with or without the scarf) you can easily pull off on a cold day.
WHAT I REALLY LIKE ABOUT CUDDL DUDS:
- Superior comfort level
- Functional and fashionable
- Perfect cold-weather staple
- Also great for layering
- Great selection of style and patterns
- Form-fitting and non-restrictive

Very helpful, and you look great, thanks. I’m 70, and still getting by with the snow pants a girlfriend (who’s now 88 and had to quit running her 6 miles a day 2 years ago…just walks instead every morning near the woods…) but am getting cold when I snowshoe with my friends like at Crater Lake here in Oregon. SO…I found a 30-year-old undershirt that’s kinda thick, with WOOL in it, and wow that’s made a big difference. But I need something warm on bottom now, so I am wondering if fleece would really be as warm as investing in a pair of leggings or pants to wear underneath with wool. I’ve been wearing CuddleDuds for 25 years probably but (duuuhhh) just realized recently they’re too thin! So do you think these fleece would work in 20 degrees if I was just standing around? We always bring a sack lunch and find a log…we hike about 4-6 miles a couple times a week.
Hi Jacqueline, that’s a great question! Could you possible try the fleece option to see if that would work for you. I have to admit that the quality of products several decades ago is probably much better than the quality we have now (or you’d have to pay wayyy more to get that same quality). However, I had no issues wearing my Cuddl Duds in 20ΒΊF weather.
