Happy Black Friday!

 Funny that we spend Thanksgiving being thankful, and then it’s followed by a day of being indulgent!  Not going to lie.  I may have taken advantage of a few ridiculous sales this morning… :}  My Christmas list just got a little shorter though!Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-1 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-2 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-3 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-4 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-5 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-6 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-8 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-9 Blog Grey Cashmere Cardigan Vince Destroyed Skinny Miss Sixty Oxfords-10On me…

Mixing masculine with feminine…

Today was a bit of a rough day.  I had to take Maya to yet another urologist, and she’s gotten to the point now where the minute they call her name to go back she starts crying hysterically.  Not without good reason considering they had to do another catheter-ugh.  Needless to say, we were both in tears by the end of the visit…

Am I the only one that dresses in bright colors on crappy days, in the effort to cheer up?

Super Mom Tip:
  I posted one of the pics of Maya and me on my facebook page and a friend commented on my hair.  I laughed, because it was my “I didn’t take a shower and was sick of my usual messy bun” look.  Pretty easy to do.  Just start twisting one side (fix with bobby pin).  Twist other side, then gather both into a ponytail.  Then wrap into a bun.  Turns curly out of control bedhead into something a little put together 🙂dit-elle-Lauren

Joie Peasant Blouse 3 ways… Day 2

Yesterday, I paired this Joie top with slip on oxfords and a pair of DL 1961 jeans, for a comfortable day outfit.

Today, I wanted to show how I would wear it dressed up for a more work friendly outfit.

At first, all I did was throw on a pair of cropped navy pants.  It would work for the more casual work place, and the oxfords are great if you have to be on your feet (worn with these!)Blog Joie Blouse Elevenses Khakis-1 Blog Joie Blouse Elevenses Khakis-2 Blog Joie Blouse Elevenses Khakis-3 Blog Joie Blouse Elevenses Khakis-4 Then I added a belt to make it a little more structured and threw on some fun heels!

Joie Peasant Blouse 3 ways… Day 1

I love having items in my wardrobe that can cross over from day to night.  Casual to work.  This blouse from Joie, does that perfectly.

The first way I’m wearing it is just day casual.  I might not take Maya to the park in this, since it’s white/and a little expensive, but it’s great for errands or apts.  Paired with slip on oxfords and another pair of DL 1961 jeans, this outfit could not be more comfortable!Blog Joie Blouse DL 1961 Jeans Miss Sixty Oxfords-1 Blog Joie Blouse DL 1961 Jeans Miss Sixty Oxfords-2I like to put colored/patterned tanks under sheer tops for a little modesty, pop of color, or fun boost to a neutral outfit.

Top- Joie (on sale!!)
Jeans- DL 1961 Emma Legging  Don’t let the name fool you.  They are jeans, but with the usual 4 way stretch, they feel like leggings 🙂
Shoes- Miss Sixty “Marlene” oxford (sold out, but you can still find them on eBay!)  Similar here.
Tank- C & C California (old, but can find similar here.)

On Maya…

Top- Old Navy (thrifted, but dying over this one!)
Jeans-Gap
Shoes- Zulily They come up often, so save this search “Mariposa Slip on Shoe” ($6!!)
Super Mom Tip:
  I hate to iron, so whenever possible I spray items with a spray bottle (I add a few spritz of body spray in the bottle to make it smell good!).  I  either let the item hang dry or toss it in the dryer.  Voila-wrinkle free and smelling nice!  I always take a spray bottle when traveling too.
Tomorrow, I’ll show how I would wear this top as work casual. 🙂dit-elle-Lauren
