Share the Covers--Leaving on a Jet Plane (2)
I've already featured another cover of this song by Peter, Paul and Mary, but I fell in love with this cover by one of my favorite bands, Slightly Stoopid . . .
And it fits because last weekend I went on a little Mother/Daughter weekend to Las Vegas with my mom and little sister. Of course, if you follow me on Instagram (and if you're not--you should IMO), you already know this.
It was a lot of fun--though too short of course. Mostly it was just nice to spend time with my mom and sister. They truly are two of my very best friends and I am so lucky to have such a great relationship with both of them.
This is not to say that we do not have our differences. My sister, for example, is quite outgoing where I am more introverted. My sister, much like her oldest daughter, makes friends with everyone she meets. I'm not kidding you. She came home with at least a dozen phone numbers.
And I don't mean men's numbers. I mean the married couple on the shuttlebus. I mean some of the women she met poolside at the hotel. I mean that she made friends with taxi drivers, father and son guests of the hotel, children, old people, married people and waitstaff.
This girl, I tell you. She could find a friend anywhere. Meanwhile, I was over here all . . . let's not. #nooffense #notapeopleperson

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.
