Mission #47, Day 4--Camel Coat
A camel coat isn't necessarily a coat that I would deem a "must have" per se, but it certainly does come in handy as a rich neutral colored outerwear piece. And it helps that camel coats seem to be everywhere this season, amiright?
So yesterday was my youngest niece Lara's first birthday. Hooray! It seriously is insane how quickly a baby's first year passes. It doesn't seem like that long ago that my sister and I were both preggers wolfing down fine breakfast food at Aunt Alice's.
But she is one, nonetheless. And in that short year, of course, she's gone from barely able to keep her eyes open long enough to study your face to walking and talking with a mind of her own. Having kids seriously puts your life into warp speed.
Why just last week or so I was on the phone with my sister, as we always do, when I hear her say to my two older nieces "Girls," she says, "what did you just say?" There is silence for a bit from my sister, but I could hear the girls giggling in the background and then my sister started laughing.
Well apparently while my sister was on the phone, Anya (8) got a hold of the Direct TV remote and was going through the guide with Emma (almost 6) trying to decide what it was that they were going to watch by Anya reading the shows off to Emma. when they got to the adult channels. And they were giggling uncontrollably at the likes of titles like "Brazilian Butts."
So young. So innocent. So hilarious.

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.
