Vintage Tweed Jacket + High Waisted Crop Raw Hem Flares + Sheepskin Lined Clogs

Well, we are officially in the cold weather, and I’m thinking about Thanksgiving outfits.

We have a pretty laid back casual Thanksgiving. We usually host, and I’m usually still cooking/cleaning/prepping until people start showing up. 😏

SO…I have to be comfy. This honestly might be what I end up wearing.

Sweater (I gotta try, right? 😜) + High Waisted Jeans (to hold in my overstuffed tummy 🙈🐷) + Warm sheepskin lined clogs (comfort, cozy, and cute-the 3 c’s! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻)

I’m determined to shoot a few more options up until then, so I’m not frantically deciding the afternoon of… I’ve realized that I’ve photographed these jeans repeatedly (ok, not sure I’ve posted them repeatedly yet, but they are coming!!)

…but they are SO comfy and so flattering, SO… 🙂

On me…

Jacket- Vintage (similar here and less expensive here)

Sweater- Acrobat

Jeans- 3×1 (ebay)

Clogs- Ugg “Kalie” clog (ebay, sold out)

Keeping it Real…

When it’s just me, I don’t have as many outtakes. And that’s only because I literally took 5 minutes from the first to the last shot.

I know the rest of the country is SICK of the snow, but we don’t get it that often in Seattle. We were in heaven… I actually covered up the best part of this jacket with my scarf. It’s got this super wide collar and double breasted buttons. Vintage Nordstrom that I’ve had for 15+ years. I got it at this hole in the wall thrift store that went out of business-so sad, but LOVE the coat! Happy!!! 🙂 Went inside for brief break, and then back out to sled. On me…

Stripes + Faux Fur On the two of us…

Leave a reply

I’m pretty sure it’s obvious, but I am so obsessed with stripes! The “don’t wear horizontal stripes” is for sure a rule to break. Everyone can! Little hints of it peeking out of layering…LOVE!!! I’m also a bit obsessed with the faux fur trend, but have only really had the nerve to try it out on Maya (my little fashion guinea pig :}) See the below expression? That would be me awkwardly trying to talk to a neighbor that came out while the self timer was going off. Hey, I have a limited window of Maya snacking in the wagon. I’ve got to keep this moving! 🙂 He eventually went back inside… And THIS is why I am so thankful I’m doing this blog. Are you kidding me with that smile? LOVE HER! In her hand is a doll from LinaMarieDolls. They are SO CUTE (sorry, I didn’t get a better picture of the doll, but getting Maya to “show me the doll” wasn’t exactly working. I won it in a cut throat auction, and have never been so glad to spend more than retail price on anything! 🙂 It’s all for a good cause, right? She has SO many other cute creations!! I foresee our house being overrun by them… 🙂 I see so many other bloggers talking about “reality” vs “blogging reality”. I admit. I’m only posting pictures that look good. Where me and Maya look happy. Duh. Honestly, I’m so lucky. Maya really is a happy kid, but I HAD to put these in here. These are SO going to be my teenage years… This is such a blogger pose below… And remember this sweater in red? YES, I found it in another thrift store in cream. Same “too big” size! This one was $1.50. SCORE!! Now, back to reality. “I’m jumping!!” Lastly. Wow, I’m rambling a LOT in this post. I’m not sure if any of you care about coats, but I’m thinking with the crazy weather in the US, the answer is yes?! I LOVE vintage coats. They are a fraction of the cost, look totally current (most designers base their looks on vintage coats), and nobody else will have them (WIN!!). All around SCORE as far as I’m concerned!! I haven’t really blogged much about outerwear, but I thought I might at the end for those that care. Pretty sure I got this coat for less than $20. It’s been a while… On me…
