Monochromatic with stripes & bubbles

cardi & flats: thrifted, tee: forever 21, pants: walmart

So, not much to say about this outfit except that it is fabulously comfy and with the stripes and bubble necklace trendy enough to work. And y'all these velour pants are so comfy and warm and soft. They are old lady pants, but I don't care.

Would you wear velour old lady pants?

Rainy Days & Sunday Clothes

jacket: thrifted, dress, turtleneck & heels: target

don't even ask - I have no idea what he is doing. ;)

Happy Monday, friends. We are having an icky, rainy, dreary day and I really just want to curl up under the covers and sleep or read. Anyone else have that problem when it rains? Anyway. This is what I wore to church yesterday. I got this wool blazer for $1 at the thrift store a while back. I love the pinky coral color, but it is unlined which makes it kind of hard to wear. Wool makes me itch like crazy so I can't have it actually touching my skin anywhere. Thus the turtleneck. I ended up adding the burgundy pops since I don't have grey heels.

Have a great week!

Christmasy Comfortable Chic

blouse: old navy, dress: charlotte russe, belt: hubby's, necklace: cato, flats: thrifted

contrary to his facial expression, the kiddo really wanted to be in a picture with mommy

comfy, casual for around the house

Y'all there are only a few days left until Christmas. When did that happen? Seriously!? Yikes. ;)

The top outfit is what I wore to go see my kiddo in his first ever Christmas program. During which he sat in his chair with his back to the audience watching the rest of the kids sing whilst not singing. a. single. note. ;) Apparently he believed he was there to be entertained rather than to do the entertaining. Oh well. He succeeded in cracking us up as we were trying to figure out what in the world he was doing. ;) The bottom outfit is what I wore to spend the rest of the day around the house. While I loved the dress over the blouse, there was an unforeseen problem with the layering. A knit dress over a silky blouse equals slippage. The shoulders would not stay put. I will most likely never wear this dress over a silky blouse again as it drove. me. up. the. wall. However I loved the combination of mint and burgundy and will probably be wearing the outfit with the cardi for Christmas day. We take about six million pictures, but I also like to be comfy and this outfit was comfy enough to nap in once I took off the offending blouse.

We have family coming in for Christmas and I doubt I will have a lot of time for blogging. So I've lined up a week's worth of Blast from the Past posts. Many of you are new readers who recently started following and I thought you might enjoy seeing a few posts from 2011. Please do laugh at them when you have the time. And I hope you all have the most blessed and wonderful holiday week.

Merry Christmas, friends!
