What I Wore | October Tweed

WhatIWore: These photos really capture October to me. Not the warm, bright blue skies contrasting the red and orange leaves, but the gloomy and damp days that tell us winter is getting closer. I’ve been inspired lately by all of the English woolen tweeds I’ve seen in magazines and glad I bought this one in my normal size last year when I was pregnant with Bea (worn here and here). Today I layered it over a vest and pale chambray top and flared dark denim. Very Annie Hall in a way - especially with the hat!

What:
Hat: Self Made (similar
Sunglasses: LOFT
Blazer: J.Crew (kinda similar)

PS. Buh bye blonde! I dyed my hair dark this morning! And I love it! Will post to Instagram!

What I Wore | Palazzo Pants

WhatIWore: Good Morning! Coming ‘atcha with an internet connection and a new batch of outfit photos. For the past week I’ve been spacing showers a littttle too far and wearing the same tired jean shorts every day. Moving house with two small kids is quite the challenge. A week or so later and I’ve starting to feel more settled! I am so in love with life out here, but me time has been non existent. So yesterday morning, I got showered and hit up Target right when they opened to do a little shopping for myself, then came home, changed and had Adam do outfit photos for me! 

Unlike my unsuccessful journey to the Fashion Mall in Indy, I really did well finding things yesterday! These palazzo pants and sleeveless jacket are two of them! One of the things I’m coming to terms with is that I just like what I like - so even if that means I buy another black and white print or olive jacket - so be it. If one shouldered ruffles aren’t your thing, there’s no need to push the issue, #amirite? 

When: May 23, 2017

What:
Shades: Karen Walker ‘Super Duper’
Sleeveless Jacket: Target (Mossimo)
Pants: Target (Mossimo) - now on clearance online! 
Sandals: Rockport (gift from previous partnership)

Where: Errands all over town

These pants really surprised me - for a high rise elastic waistband they are really flattering. Bonus points because they’re incredibly comfortable too. And long! I wore them with flats but I could shimmy them down an inch or two at the waist and do with a short heeled sandal too. I paid full price in store, but I saw they’re on clearance online, so run run run to get yours! 

As for the jacket, it’s a great option for nursing mamas who’d like a light layer for modesty and something more than just wearing the same basic tee shirts day after day.
