Mission Monday #38--Scarves
There are soooo many ways to wear a scarf (this video has been a useful tool for several years for me). And they are not just for warmth either! You can rock them in the other seasons also. They can add a lot of interest, texture and color to your outfit. So next week, it's all about the scarf.
This weekend was so much fun. On Friday my daughter and two of my nieces had a horseback riding lesson. Patrick and I got them gift certificates for Christmas. All my nieces love horses and horseback riding is actually a great form of therapy for kids with spina bifida, like my niece Anya has.
But it wasn't just the three girls. Oh no. It was the three girls, my three sons, my nephew and my other two nieces. 9 kids--ages 2 months, 7 months, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9 and 13. And my sister and I. Insanity.
My niece Brynn was too scared to ride the horse, but she did get to brush one. She said she had a lot of fun and will maaaaaybe ride the horse next time. My daughter was all about it and Anya was on Cloud 9. The other kids were pretty good too, even the babies.
I will say this though: that's a lot of damn kids. Even well behaved. That's a lot of damn kids. Super fun. Love them all. But I'm good with four.

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.
