Mmmmkay Pumpkin?
Is it really already Wednesday? Because it totally felt like a Monday. But then again, I've totally lost all concept of time.
What I didn't lose track of, thankfully, was the Fall Fashion Challenge. Today's color is pumpkin which meant two things: one, I got to wear my vintage rust colored dress again and two, I got to wear the new faux fur vest I bought shopping with my SIL this weekend.
I feel myself slowly slipping into a writing funk. I used to get a lot of random ideas driving or cooking or whatever and just be all "yeah, that would make a good blog post!" Or something weird, random, awesome, funny or ridiculous would happen to me. Something.
Lately, nothing. I feel like I walk around in a blur. I don't know if I might be just getting in a quasi-depressed funk since Patrick left or if I'm just extra busy or what.
Nonetheless, I don't want to spend this whole post writing about literally nothing, so I will just make these couple of quick meaningless observations:
Brinner solves everything. I'm for real. I think my kids were at their wits end today until I slapped some homemade from scratch waffles, scrambled eggs and bacon on the table. Solved.
Finding locations for photos is such a pain sometimes. Spring and summer time = beautiful but crowded. Fall and winter time = desolate but dead, bare and grey.
Do any of you all by chance have the Stylebook app? I got it on the iPad a few months ago and I am totally in love with it. It takes a significant amount of time to get all of your clothes in there, but once you do, it's awesome. Like Polyvore for your own closet.
Before y'all ask, no, I didn't cut my hair. Yet. I pinned it up in a bob. But I told Patrick that now that the wedding was over and since he's gone, I'm gonna chop the hell out of my hair. When I can find time for another appointment with Vanessa, that is.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
