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!

Ruffles, ruffles everywhere

Never underestimate the comfort of a shirt dress and leggings.

We know I'm a stay at home mom, and when I'm home I like to be comfy... but when I go out I want to look cute.  This look has both!

 

AND it's plaid!  How are you wearing your plaid right now?

 

I think this look is better with the olive jacket.

Too many ruffles... nah, never!

A little leather belt adds some shape and it has been warm here... haven't even worn boots all that much!  I'm glad, I have plenty of cute flats that need some wear time!
