30 for 30 Remix – Day 23

Monday, July 11th, 2011

I love these earrings.  But the best thing about this pretty pair:  the price.  I got them on super duper sale at Target for $3.00!

30 for 30 Remix – Day 22

Friday, July 8th, 2011

It’s 97 degrees and 97% humidity here today.  In other words, it’s HOT!  So, in all honesty, did I really wear this jean jacket all day while chasing around a 3 year old and a 4 year old while they were playing in the sprinkler and riding their bikes?

Why, no.

No, I didn’t.

Just sayin’…

30 for 30 Remix – Day 21

Wednesday, July 6th, 2011

It is hot, hot, hot here.  And by hot, I mean I’m absolutely melting in this pair of cropped pants.  Whose idea was it to include 3 pairs of pants, 4 jackets, and 2 cardigan sweaters Kendi’s 30 for 30 Remix Challenge?

Oh yeah, it was mine.

Sigh.

 The 3 stinky boys and I have had so much fun this long 4th of July weekend.  We hope you and your family have too!

30 for 30 Remix – Day 17

Friday, July 1st, 2011

Lately, my friend’s 5 year old daughter yells that she has a yeast infection whenever her mom sits her in time out. 

And what, you may be wondering, does that have to do with Kendi’s 30 for 30 remix challenge:  absolutely nothing.

But it’s funny, right?

Totally.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 16

Thursday, June 30th, 2011

We were under an excessive heat warning today with temperatures hitting 103.  So the question is:  WHY AM I WEARING A SWEATER?

The answer:  fashion over function, my friends.  Fashion over function.

‘Nuff said.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 15

Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

While I love hats, scarves, and a big bunch of bracelets, nothing can accessorize an outfit better than my boys.  My little guys were riding their bikes when David snapped these shots and they stopped everything to pop in the picture.  How could I resist?

Pairing checks and florals must be good luck.  I mean, what other reason could there be for finally finding the perfect console table for my entry way while wearing this outfit?

There isn’t one.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 12

Friday, June 24th, 2011

‘Do you shop at the Gap,’ a friend recently asked.  And I’m all like, ‘Hello? Have you met me?’  She went on to say she doesn’t shop the giant retain chain because of the high prices.   To that, I told her I never pay full price there.  Never.  In fact, I buy clothes there so inexpensively I feel like I’m stealing.  See this navy blue blazer I’m sporting here for Day 12 of Kendi’s 30 for 30 Remix Challenge?  I bought it at the Gap for $10.99.  Original price:  $98.00.

True story.

The End.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 11

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

You may have noticed that mixing stipes with my entire closet is my new obsession.  And you know what I’ve decided?  Stripes are the chameleon of the print mixing world.  They can be mixed with each other, or with any other pattern in existence.  Animal print, abstract print, and florals all go with stripes.  Seriously. 

Try it!  You’ll like it!

30 for 30 Remix – Day 9

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

I love wearing red and I really wanted to incorporate the color into Kendi’s 30 for 30 Remix Challenge. But the trick with red is to keep it hot. Wear it with pink and orange and tobacco and fuchsia. There’s no point trying to tone down red. Pump it up. Wear it full blast or don’t wear it at all.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 8

Monday, June 20th, 2011

When I discovered this dress at Dillards, I was so surprised it fulfilled everyone of my mommy of two toddlers clothing commandments: 

1.  It has to be cool.

2.  It has to be comfortable.

3.  It has to be cute.

4.  AND, it HAS to be washable.

Love it!

30 for 30 Remix – Day 4

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

Me:  “If I sit like this, can you see my shorts?  Because seeing my entire outfit is kind of the whole point of this 30 for 30 thingy.”

David:  “Oh yeah.  You can see ‘em.”

The conversation David and I had just prior to him snapping these shots for me. 

I am wearing shorts.  Really, I am.

30 for 30 Remix – Day 2

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

I’ve never worn this sweet spaghetti strap dress with anything other than flip flops.  And that’s exactly reason # 332 why I adore Kendi’s 30 for 30 Remix Challenge.  When you only have 30 clothing options to choose from, you have to mix and match.  And voila:  new outfit!

Date Night Duds

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

I heart The Beauty Department blog so much that I used three of its recent tutorials – Catty Eye, The Everyday Wave, and The Perfect Red Lip - for date night with David on Friday.  We had such a fun time at dinner and drinks with friends before attending an incredible fashion show in Kansas City, and I just wanted to share a few photos of what I wore.

What did you do this weekend?
