Double Stripes

Sometimes there are outfits that I just wear time and time again, and this is one of them. It was originally one of those outfits that came together unexpectedly, but there's just something about it I love. Before getting my booties I wore this with simple heels, but I love it with the booties. If you want more tips on how to style booties, check out this post. Honestly, I think I just like this outfit because it's a little edgier than my norm and it makes me feel cooler than I really am. :)

Plaid, Vests, and a Batman Sighting....

I wore this outfit the during Christmas break and Grant always like to "help" me take pictures. I couldn't bring myself to crop him out of he pictures. It was actually a pretty nice day, perfect for a vest for me and Grant's new Batman hoodie for him. He's pretty much living in it, and along with wearing his new Super-man light up shoes he's definitely the most stylish three year old. :). On this particular day Grant and I went to a paint your own pottery place and Grant painted a plane figurine. Then we went to eat lunch at a pizza place that is really popular here. We had a really nice little date together. It's so nice that he's getting big enough for fun activities like this.

Tights Weather

It's officially tights weather here and as much as I love tights, it's the general coldness I strongly dislike. However, this year I stumbled onto the sweetest pair of tights I've even owned Esprit fleece lined tights similar to these. They are amazing and they go perfectly with my new booties, which happen to have fringe on the back of them. If you follow me on Instagram you already know that my 4th grade self would be pretty jealous. Esprit and Fringe? The awesomeness is endless. : ) I decided to pair these two with a gray dress, my favorite cardigan, and a chunky belt. To finish this up I added my new infinity scarf I snatched up for $10 from an old lady at a craft fair. Last year I tried to knit one for myself and I think I did about three inches in six hours, before I ultimately gave up. I'm telling you, craft fairs are the best!
