a day in the life

Going Incognito

We thought if we went out in this get-up the paparazzi would miss us...guess we were wrong!

Cocooned

The LBD goes casual.  We would love for this to be more mid-calf length but that's probably not so practical for a 2 year old!

Ready to Workwear

This week we're making use of all the black basics of our wardrobe....those pieces we turn to again and again and again.  Our newest friend is the turtleneck!  We'll be getting our money's worth on this one for sure...

Ruby Friday

Today we're putting our vintage brooch and pin drawer to work.  It's a long and lasting love affair with that brooch drawer!  A little sparkle always makes us feel good...  Feeling inspired and starting to think it might be a good weekend to hit up the flea and and add a couple gems to the mix!  Have a good one...meet you back here Monday!

for the Littles:

  • American Apparel Long Sleeve Rib T-Shirt or similar Crewcuts Long Sleeve T-Shirt (5 star reviews)
  • similar Crewcuts Boys Denim Jacket (we like the relaxed fit)
  • DIY Jacket Embellishment:  Stampendous Jewel Red Glitter dusted over Fabric Glue that has been applied carefully with a paintbrush (apply coat of clear dry fabric glue on top of glitter once dry to seal the glitter, embellish with Dome Rivets/Studs ***potential chocking hazard so only use for appropriate ages and make sure all studs are applied securely, we like the wash, color, fit and general attitude of this J Crew Boys Jean Jacket as a starting point
  • we wear brooches and pins but under extremely high supervision, these are small items that could be a choking hazard or cause lacerations 
  • Old Navy Dark Wash Jean or similar Stella McCartney Dark Wash Jeans
  • Akid Lip Print Sneakers
  • Old Navy Sunnies (no longer available!  :(  ), similar Gucci Junior Sunglasses

Let your shoes do the talking for you.  These certainly have a lot to say!  Instant personality for any boring ol' outfit.
