Threesome Thursday--Mustard Sweater
Not only did this sweater work for the Fall Fashion Challenge, but it also works for Threesome Thursday. I thrifted it over a year ago and have worn it at least a dozen times. Unfortunately, it was bought without tags, so I have no idea the brand.
Just in case you can't tell from the photos, today was one of those days where it smelled and looked a blink away from snowing. Luckily, though, it didn't and was only slightly chilly.
You may be wondering what the hell is up with the YouTube video today. Well I decided to forgo the music portion today to feature the amazing highlights video that Kaden's coach made for the team.
Now I am not into football. Like at all. But I do a similar DVD every year for Christmas and send them out with our Christmas cards with photos from the year with all of our family and music and the whole bit. So I can appreciate the work that goes into it.
In case you watch it, Kaden is number 65. If you are so inclined, skip through to 3:16 and you will see the hit that Kaden took this year that took him off the ground and brought me out to the field in a panic.
If you can't tell by my chipper writing style this evening, I actually have adult socialization tonight! My mom and brother came into town and we went to dinner.
They are both staying the night and my brother and I are currently indulging in some movie time. Specifically, The Campaign, which should be much more enjoyable now that the elections are over.
And we have a big day tomorrow. My oldest son turns 12. Tweeeeelve. I can hardly believe it. I know I am only 18 years older than him, but every year on his birthday, I feel like I've aged ten years.
His party is also tomorrow night. Yep. We are going moonlight bowling and then having several tweenie rugrat boys staying the night. I'm already terrified.
So I think this chill kind of night is much needed. And so is time with my brotha-man. So if y'all will excuse me . . .

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.
