Since my life has become a virtual tornado of craziness lately, this is about as close to a real-time IRL outfit of the day as you are gonna get from me. I wore it yesterday, so yahoo!
Above is the polyvore of today's outfit. I had been searching and searching for the skirt, and eventually bought one on ebay. Darn seller mistook the skirt as a size 6, grr, and in reality it was more like a 4, therefore was too short and too tight. Ugh. But then I saw a size 8 for sale a few weeks later with a reasonable buy it now, and so I bought it now. Well, girlfriend selling it actually reads this blog, so if you see this now, "hi, and I LUURRRVVE it, thank you for paring with it!"
Oh, and don't worry, I sold the other one. I don't have two of these in my closet.
I never would have originally thought to pair this with a boldly striped top, but I was feeling risky (for a SAHM, ya know?) yesterday. I think it looks pretty good together as they are in the same color family and the patterns are of similar sizing.
My daughter's pre-school class needs a family photo, and to be completely honest, we struggle with family photos. You know what worked? I promised the kids a treat in the car on the way to school. It is amazing what a tiny bit of candy will do for toddlers. Swedish Fish are my SECRET WEAPON. LOL.
I might use this on our Christmas card. Hmm...
You all have a great afternoon. :) Now go and mix up the prints.
