Ok, seriously? She just cracks me up.
Hands down favorite thing Maya does. I usually squat down to take her picture, and she’ll just run towards me for a hug. Not usually conducive to actually taking her picture, but I’ll take a big bear hug over a picture any day.
On me…

White + Black & a pop of Red
I’ve mentioned before my love of white jeans. They really aren’t practical when you have a toddler, but I can’t help myself. They make me think of summer, which is a nice thing to think about right now 🙂
Can I just say how much I love these shoes?? I got them off eBay for a steal, and wasn’t sure how cool they really would be until I got them. LOVE THEM!!
Pretty sure my neighbors thought I was even more crazy that usual while I was trying to get this shot. Balancing the camera on the ground, while kneeling on a towel to focus/get the exposure (had to protect the jeans!!) As a photographer, I always have these shots in mind, and I love trying to figure out how to do them myself 🙂
AND THEN….Maya went traipsing through the mole hills that have attacked our neighborhood. She looks quite pleased with herself, doesn’t she? There went my nice clean white jeans…but hey, that’s what stain remover is for!
On me…
Shoes- Converse (thrifted, but similar here)
Coated denim…day to night.
You know all those weekends where you play with your kids during the day and then get to go out with your husband at night? Yeah…me either. However, it does happen on occasion, and a lot of times it’s a short notice offer from my parents that we jump on. Here’s an outfit that lets you run around during the day, then swap out the shoes for night.
These are so comfy, and I love the added bling of the glitter. So not me, but fun! I think Maya is rubbing off on me haha.
Then a little bootie for night! Haha, just reread that. And, yes to that too 😉
Funny story. I’ve had these boots for probably 10 years! That is the upside to buying quality leather… I used to wear them under my long bootcut jeans. You never even saw how cute they were. Love that it’s in fashion to let them show now! Remember-hoarding, I mean holding onto quality classics, is good 🙂
These were all done with the self timer again. Maya was a little sad she wasn’t in them all!

On me…
White after Labor Day…of course!
I have a slight obsession with white jeans. THAT is not exactly “mom friendly”, but we have stain remover, so I indulge my obsession every now and then and hope for the best. It’s a good thing I have 4 or 5 (ok, maybe more) pairs…
This particular pair is DL 1961 Kate Slim Straight. I talked about my love of DL 1961 jeans here. Their 4 way stretch is SO comfortable! I bought this particular pair over 2 years ago, when I was pregnant (I only wore stretchy non maternity jeans when I was preggers!) They’re one size bigger than I normally wear now, but that just makes them kind of a skinny boyfriend fit 🙂
I like adding a little pop of color to a neutral outfit.

During these last days of summer/early fall the temperature changes pretty drastically over the course of the day. Layering is key…
Am I the only mom that walks out of the house and 75% of the time realizes that I match my kid? I like to buy clothes for Maya that I would wear, so I guess when I’m in the mood for something…it trickles down to her 🙂
So… Chambray shirt with a pop of color (she picked the shoes)….who wore it best?? haha
Yeah, I agree. She did 😉
