Family Gift Guide 2016

It's that time again!  Of course, I will wait until the weekend before Christmas to start shopping because I always procrastinate.  This past weekend, instead of holiday present shopping, instead I ended up buying the kids more clothes since the deals were so good!  I'll start holiday shopping soon and in the meantime have been making lists of things to get for family members.  Every year I say I'll start shopping in October but no...I'll wait until the weekend before...

Winter is Coming

And by winter, I mean Florida winter as in 65 degrees and it feels wonderful.  The weather has been cooling down here and the moment I felt even the slightest of cool air, I went into full panic mode realizing that Lucas had outgrown his sweaters and I did not have even one sweater for Olivia.  #momfail.  Never fear because I shopped my little heart out and bought my littles a whole new set of cold weather clothes only to wake up the next day to 80 degree weather...womp womp.

The Trumpet Sleeve

I thought long about this purchase.  To trumpet sleeve or not to bell sleeve.  Typically, if I have to think about buying something this way, I usually end up not purchasing it because it isn't something that I just have to have or, of course, need.  In this case, I thought, it's pretty and I literally have nothing like it so why not?  I have to say, the color is pretty and it was a nice change from my usual tunics and/or striped top.  I'm trying to branch out more and out of my box/rut and although I'm by no means a risk taker when it comes to fashion, it's baby steps towards a more rounded wardrobe for me.

Basic Witch

Another day, another oversized sweater and flats to the office kinda day.  But it's Halloween!  I am so so so excited for both my babies to dress up tonight!  Lucas chose his and Olivia's costumes and they will be going as Woody and Jessie from Toy Story.  I mean....holy cuteness!  

The pictures have a weird light and lines throughout but I couldn't love this oversized sweater more.  I bought it during the anniversary sale right before my maternity leave started and since I wore pajamas for three months straight, this was my first time wearing it.  I usually go for blacks and neutrals but this burnt orange color was just perfection.

Oversized Season

Let's be honest.  I don't need it to be fall nor winter to wear oversized sweaters.  I live in Florida and, yet, year round you will find me in oversized sweaters.  And I don't hate it.  But it just so happens to be socially acceptable now to wear slightly longer and baggier sweaters so I don't stand out too much despite the weather still being hotter than a chicken's coop.

The Cover the Booty Shirt

Just a quick post today to give a shout out to the genius who invented high/low tunics.  That person deserves an award, a prize, a billion dollars.  Seriously.
