“Winterize a Spring Outfit”
β’
Itβs the 2nd week of my random challenge. (See our stories for behind the scenes videos!)
π
Maya got inspired too! I asked her to pick out a “spring dress” (as an avid thrifter…she has a lot to choose from π), and I styled the dress she picked for the warmth of our 46 degree WINDY day. π³. LOTS OF LAYERS!
β’
I’m totally committed with continuing this style challenge and would love any further input on other weekly themes!
β’
Last week was “Black and White” courtesy of the suggestion of @mskim_says
A few people followed suit, which I was super excited about! If you tag #DitElleGetInspired I will share your posts! Most likely in my stories, but hopefully others will get inspired too!
β’
AND…both of our outfits are entirely #thrifted or #ebayfashion as they usually are. Let me know if you have any questions about thrifting! Or…@ebay I’m a pro!
β’
Does anyone else love a good style challenge? I’m always SO pumped by @themomedit #TMEStyleChallenge and have totally committed to them the last few years. I actually saved ALL the challenges this last time and planned my outfits for them. BUT…life. got. in. the. way. As it does!! π«
β’
Just know. Any time I post a challenge…it’s not time sensitive! Tag me whenever you choose to be inspired! That is the idea of the hashtag. GET INSPIRED! β’
I promise to check it, but if you tag me I’ll see it!





LOOOOVE this sweet face!


On me…

Pretty sure that first image included a pinch to my arse… and then a possible punch??




Gotta love my neighbors walking by…
Yeah, and usually one comes up behind me walking their dog!
This fringe and stud detailing…LOVE!!!
Always obsessed with our matching clogs from
Her face!!
Then 5 minutes later the sun was gone and it started to rain…

And, without fail…my cheap timer goes off when I don’t want it to.Β BUT…it’s cheap, and…it’s

Funny thing is that I’ve had these for probably…2 years!Β I was convinced I’d just resell them, but hadn’t gotten around to it yet.Β I’m SO glad I didn’t!

Oh….and another neighbor?Β Don’t mind me…
So…funny story.Β The reason there’s a “haze” on the first image, is because Maya kept jumping up and waving her hand in front of the camera…Β
Looooove this next one!
AND….awe!!!
My mom and Maya decorating with flags…

hahaha π
Not exactly what you’d think of for climbing shoes, but… π

What to say about this sweet nugget…
And…twinning is always winning!
Love these next few!!!

My new favorite of the three of us!!
And…to my amazing mom and friend…
I can’t even…
Again….NEW FAVORITE!
Funny story.Β I cropped myself out of this shot because I was frantically running towards the camera on the tripod that was going CRAZY taking pics!Β Maya’s face though….WORTH IT!
All the heart eyes…
Pretty much the best reality of our group shot attempts…
But then we got this!!
And this, so…I’ll take it all!
And then…letting her do what she loves to do.

Hahaha.Β Yes, by butt as a try to stop the shutter AGAIN, and Maya picking her nose…as she does ALL THE TIME.
Licking me….as she does ALL THE TIME π

Me trying to wrestle her to NOT lick me…
Maya giving herself a hickey that you can STILL see 3 days later…
I love that I caught the remote being thrown in mid air.Β I’d had it with it’s craziness!
Maya probably explaining to me how I can fix it π

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve worn these clogs!Β I’m so sad to be saying good bye to them until next summer!
And…had to get shots of both of our shoes, because our shoe shots are some of my favs!
Seriously…dying.

And…then I gave her the remote to take pics of us together.Β I feel like she has way more fun when she has control of things at times.Β But again…a kazillion shoe shots later… π
Her face when I said let’s dance together!!
Oh, and then she said
I’m going to call it a tie!
But these next ones…
LOVE!
There’s something about clogs on her feet! Β She just wants to dance! Β I used to be worried about her twisting her ankle, but nope! Β She just keeps dancing away!
That tongue and pointed fingers!!
Oh, and my dad happened upon us once again on his evening walk.
And of course she talked him into an airpalne!
I can’t even begin with this…hahaha. Β Maya’s hair! Β Seriously…how did I fix that??!
And then…
LOVE this back!!
And But….love her more!
But they came right back on for aΒ dance off!
Oh, and the side details of these super comfy clogs?
and then I decided to tie the back of this tee for a more fitted look…
I can’t even!
Seriously, so cute with the tied back right??!!
I can’t even…IΒ LOVE capturing the way we look at each other!!
My dad goes for a walk in the evening, and we see him when we are out playing after dinner.

And sometimes she grabs the remote and starts shooting a kazillion pictures.

I can’t EVEN!!!!
Yes, this is her new thing. Β If I Β pick her up, she does this…
Not going to lie. Β I feel like I’m going to drop her!!
Could she be any happier?!
The microphone in the background….it will be back!

Oh, and she wanted to bring her microphone outside with us..
BUT…guess what. Β The following week she was in a singing camp, and
The focusing stand. Β I wish she’d hug ME like that…
Nope. Β Hasn’t exited the licking phase yet! Β UGH!!!
Because….
So, I gave Maya the camera, and



Classic Maya… π
