Plaid with Stripes

Hi friends!

It is frosty cold here today!

We are back from Philadelphia, the race went great. 

I'll post about that next week.

 

I can't believe Thanksgiving is right around the corner.  I'm getting excited!

I so love the holidays.

I need to get myself into the spirit!

 

I've worn a couple of outfits with plaid as of late.

I even got myself a new plaid top so now I have three!

I haven't ventured into the plaid on bottom, but maybe soon.

 

I'm just realizing now I paired both of these plaid tops with large stripes.

I'm totally digging that... obviously enough to wear it! 
I think the large stripe is fine with the plaid, and it adds more interest than a plain color.

 

I went with a boot cut jean for this look, and a heeled short boot, makes me taller, and feel thinner!

 

shirt: target

sweater: marshalls

jeans: downeast basics

boots: payless (old)

 

This next look I went with a skinny jean and riding boot.

And now the plaid is on the outside with the stripe inside!

both tops and jeans: old navy

boots: marshalls

 

 

 



Plaid Mustard and Boobie Prison

Are we sensing that I love mustard?  That would be totally correct.

 

My kitchen was all mustard and a few months ago I wanted to paint it, but couldn't let go of that color, so now I have mustard stripes! 

Sorry, that was random... but don't you LOVE it?

 

Anywho...

Tis fall, thus the plaid.  I only own 2 plaid shirts.  How about you any plaid?  I feel like I could add just a couple more plaid items to my collection.

 

Do you watch New Girl?  I recently started watching via Netflix and am on season 2 now!

Love that show!  When Jessica Day lost her job as a teacher she sat around in her jammies all day and glorified the fact that she didn't have to put her boobs into (bra) prison everyday!  I laughed... hilarious... boobie prison!

 

You know the great thing about being small breasted?  If I don't want to be imprisoned every day... I don't have to!  I just put on my camisole-like underwear so nothing flops around... because I have had 4 kids you know... and I'm set for the day!

 

This would be one of those days... I know... you can't tell the difference!

Hallelujah for little ladies!!

Happy Saturday!

 

top: lucky

sweater: old

jeans: downeast basics

shoes: old navy



Great Butt Jeans and My New Jacket

Hi pretties!

Why is it one day you put on a pair of pants, and feel like a million bucks...

Then the next day try on different pants and feel like a heifer?

Is it possible I gained 10 lbs overnight?

I think not... rather it's all about the pants I put on that day.

Note to self... try on all pants and clean out, because yesterday... I didn't feel so hot!

 

So, it makes me feel good to post these today, because these jeans look good on me!

Calm down Carolyn... you are not a heifer!

 

This was a little number I wore all day, then out for date night with my man.

 

 

Oh ya, feeling good!

These jeans are DownEast Basics, they are one of my favorite pair.

 

Rear view... which can be scary butt not today!  That means you have a great pair of jeans... worth every penny!

 

Don't you love this top?  It's a great fall piece.  I love the lace.

 Got it here: Cotton On

I wore my little black half boots for a little height.

Got those at Target

 

 

Of course the evenings are chilly now.  I got to wear my new leather jacket out.  It really is adorbs right? 

Got that at Marshalls  of course!

I rocked a high pony, feels a little more diva.  Not sure where I got those earrings.

Where did you get your favorite pair of jeans?
