Mission #32, Day 1--Floral Leggings
There are many ways to wear the current trend of the printed pants for Mission Week. One way is by pairing them with neutrals, as here. My sister gave me these floral leggins back when she was the only pregnant one (ha!) and they have since served me well.
This was the second weekend in a row in which I have been a slave to my bed. I've been exhausted, for one, and not feeling good in addition to that. Thanks for showing up again first trimester symptoms.
I have three kids. A full time job (yes, I'm still working). A blog. A husband. A home (currently under remodel). And many other obligations. Allowing myself down time is not something I'm used to.
And I feel guilty. There's still much to do before this little babe comes into our lives (or at least it feels that way anyway) and for the past two weekends I've totally meant to do it. But then the weekend comes and goes and . . . so does my motivation.
But I figure--I have ten more actual work days before I'm on maternity leave. And all of the major stuff is under control. I might as well just use these last two (yikes) weekends before the baby to rest . . . right? I think I remember how this newborn thing works--you don't sleep for two years.

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.
