Oh I Just Can't Waaaaait for the Spriiiiing!
Did you sing the title of this post to this tune? If so a billion points for you.
My mother is going to kill me for telling you this story. But I was talking to Matty and Patrick about it this weekend and they got a kick out of it, so I think you will too.
My mother and three of her best friends were kicked out of Veil, Colorado. Well, not the city . . . but pretty much every place in Veil. This was about eight or so years ago, so it's water under the bridge now, but nonetheless, the story is entertaining.
My mom is a rebel, which is where I get it. And sometimes when her and her girlfriends get together, it can get a little rambunctious. Just like me and my girlfriends.
Well, I can't talk about everything that happened. Partly because my mother really will kill me and partly because, like I said it was a long time ago and I don't remember all the details. But in synopsis:
They crashed a wedding, pretending to be the florists. They were chased by hospital security guards. They put a bunch of jewelry on hold that they weren't ever planning on buying. They had some sort of run in with a Denny's (something about hash browns?), the hotel and a bar.
My mother and her friends were the original The Hangover. Pretty crazy right?
Also this story is appropriate today because even though it's January and the majority of the country is freezing their bums off, Colorado has been blessed with an extremely warm and spring like warm front. And even though I'm pretty sure I wasn't supposed to be taking pictures at this barn . . . I managed to snap a couple right quick. No harm, no foul, right mom?
But . . . there has been some wind. Obvi.

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.
