Share the Covers--Blue Monday
Here's the original . . .
Aaaaand the cover . . .
What? You thought I forgot about Share the Covers Monday didn't you? Tu parles mademoiselles! I just took a break last week to gush about the honeymoon. It's baaaaaack!
And honestly, is there any better song for Share the Covers Monday than Blue Monday? I mean, the two were kind of made for each other.
How were your Mondays? Mine sucked, personally. I mean Mondays suck in general, but mine was served with an extra side of suck today.
I won't get into all the suckiness that was my Monday, but here are some shareable highlights:
Do you ever get up extra early in the morning and you are just . . . up. Yep. That was me. At 5 this morning. For no blessed reason. So I just started getting ready.
Not that that stopped me from being late to work. Somehow, with kids, no matter how early you are up and how prepared you are, something will undoubtedly go awry and you will be late.
You know what else sucks too? *caution, TMI ahead* having to go to the store for tampons and only tampons.
You ladies know, when you go to get tampons, you like to have a few non-menstrual related items in your cart so it seems all incognito. You know, like fabric softener or frozen peas. But sometimes you're in a hurry and don't need any broccoli stems and you just have to be like "yeah, I'll just take the Tampax, let's move on."
You know what else is annoying suckdom? Having your gas light come on the day before payday. Which means, I have to leave early tomorrow to get gas on the way to dropping the kids off at school. F!
As of right now I am instituting a new abbrevity (Lebowski ref, did you get it?) to the mix. Forget T.G.I.F. I am going with T.G.M.S.D.I.O. Which means Thank God Monday Suck Day Is Over. It'll catch on.

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.
