Threesome Thursdays--Lock Print Blouse
I found this lock printed blouse in a consignment store while I was birthday shopping (para mi!) earlier this year and it has quickly become a favorite in my closet.
We have been blessed the past few days with some amazing weather. Chilly, yes, but clear skies and temps in the high 60's.
And even though I've wanted to savor these last few weeks or so of nice weather with bare legs, I have to ultimately succumb to the fact that pants or tights are actually much more temperature friendly.
I actually did something new with my hair today (amazing!) by following this really easy pin.
Tomorrow is Friday and I couldn't be more excited . . . well . . . actually I could . . .
You see, it will be the weekend, but . . .
Both of the boys have playoff games. Out of town. Early in the morning. So no sleeping in on Saturday.
Then we have to get the house ready for the Halloween Party on Sunday by re-cleaning the house and decorating and shopping for the supplies.
Not to mention the actual party on Sunday wherein there will be anywhere from a dozen to three dozen kids from ages 4-12 here. (whyyyyy can't anyone R.S.V.P. anymore? I seriously have no idea how many kids to expect!)
But, at least the kids will have a really fun weekend and that is what is important. Plus, there's always next weekend, I guess.
In the meantime, I am going to relish in the fact that we are supposed to have awesome weather this weekend. We've actually had amazing luck with weather every year that we've had this party.
Not only that, but in mix of all the shtuff, we also get to carve pumpkins. I am not a fan of carving pumpkins. I am terrified of using a butcher knife without severing a limb and I think the pumpkin guts are nasty.
But, I tough it out. Cause that's what moms do. Am I 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.
