Whole Again
Best Moment of 2013 So Far Award goes to:
Photo taken by Patrick's General with my crappy Blackberry (yes, someone still owns one of those).
Having Patrick back has been absolutely amazing. I cannot believe how much I missed him. Brielle pretty much didn't leave his lap/side all day.
We've enjoyed doing absolutely nothing "special" together like going to Lowe's and watching television. And it's been so wonderful.
I don't want to sound cocky but this is my favorite outfit this year. I've been dying to wear a hat ever since I got my hair cut.
I've been teetering with the harem pant trend and, true to form, jumped on the bandwagon when they're not really around anymore. But they were $5 on eBay and a lovely wine shade, so worth the risk.
This sweater is a prime example of not paying attention to sizes when you thrift. This is a size large and it is the perfect blend of cozy big but not swallowing you whole. Plus I fell in love with the exposed zipper on the back.
As you can see, the snow did indeed come. Not the eight inches promised, but it did bring the bitter cold with it.
But that's no problem. All the more reason to cuddle up with the hubbie, sip on hot coffee and zone out to tv.
Leather Jacket-Wal-Mart; Striped Sweater with Zipper Detail-Loft, thrifted; Silk Wine Colored Harem Pants-eBay; Sweater Socks-Kohl's; Football Booties-Charlotte Russe; Fedora-K-Mart; Necklace-Kohl's

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.
