Mission #34, Day 4--Mary Anne
Mary Anne Spier. Kind of a wallflower in the Babysitter's Club series. All I really remember of her from the books was that she was shy, reserved and, from what I remember, pretty preppy. I mean, the gutsiest thing I remember she ever did was chop her hair. Whoa, slow down sister. So I went with overalls, flats and a generally understated look for this week's Mission Week challenge.
Speaking of slowing down, though. You guys. My baby is a month old today. I cannot believe it. I know that time goes by super fast when you have kids, but seriously, how can he be a month old already???
Also, I only have one more backlogged outfit for the blog. Eeek! That means I'm actually going to have to take photos again soon. Double eek! I've been getting dressed everyday--I truly can't function in pajamas. I've been taking pictures everyday--how could you not with an adorable newborn? But my tripod has been collecting dust.
I'm nervous about my future outfit photos. I find dressing my after baby body just as challenging as dressing my pregnant body sans maternity clothes. Not only does nothing fit the same right now, but you have to account for the fact that every couple of hours, you're going to have to maneuver a boob out of it (#reallife).
And, this means that my maternity leave is already half over. Sad face. I already dread the day I have to go back to work and leave my littlest guy. Luckily, he will be with Grandma. And I'll be working part time. But still.
It's all too much too fast. Ferris Bueller was right.

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.
