Sunday Best

December 22, 2014~ Etc.

I wish there were many things more perfect in this picture. I never finished the other plaid dress for my other daughter so our Christmas outfit got postponed to next week.  I wanted to put make up on and try a subtle smokey eye but only had the time to do my eyebrows and put blush on my cheeks while we drove to church literally 1/2 a mile away.  I wanted to put my hair up in that cute braid crown style I’ve seen people do on Pinterest but I didn’t have the time.  I also wanted to try on another pair of gold strap heels that are a lot more simple to see which one would look better with my outfit, but didn’t have the time, I got 3 kids ya’ll!  How am I suppose to find the time?  I honestly don’t understand how people have fashion blogs and have the perfect hair, perfect shoes, and the perfect makeup every single day and look like it took them 2-3 hrs. to get ready.  Not to mention having someone take your picture at different locations per outfit and then uploading and editing and posting everyday!   I can barely do a fashion post once a week on Sundays when I have to get ready for church anyway!  And it’s always taken right by our front door because I ain’t got time to go anywhere else! And I’m wondering, are there any fashion bloggers out there with multiple kids?  Maybe they’re all childless or have just one child?  It would make so much more sense.  


whoops, no make up doesn’t look good in a fashion post, let me add some sunglasses to that.  also in this picture as my husband was taking it he said to me, “So who are you looking at and smiling for?”  just let me do my thing! haha
much better!  except, the black sunglasses make me look a little creepy. oh well.  I don’t got time to take anymore pictures(or learn to pose better)! 😀
Outfit: midi dress | necklace: DIY | gold heels: BCBG
This dress is the same dress as I wore last week for the Sunday best except in green!  This dress is more green, it’s a deeper forest green in real life but in pictures on a overcast, rainy day, it showed up in a different color than it really is in person.
I also applaud the real fashion bloggers for their dedication and drive, they have to be constantly buying new clothes and they can’t really wear the same outfit more than once, could they?  I am honestly thinking about opening up an Instagram account where I post everyday outfits of me, which is mostly leggings, sweats, or repeated outfits I wear weekly.  Or sometimes I wear the same outfit 2-3 days in a row.  Because I didn’t shower for 2-3 days either.

Her outfit: lace dress: ?(I’m too lazy to go look) | vest: j.crew | denim shirt: gap
My outfit: midi dress | necklace | heels: ?(too lazy, so sorry)
Can you tell I take my fashion posts very seriously?  I can’t recall which brands my girl’s dress and my shoes are but I am just too dang lazy to go look.  But let’s talk about this dress.  I love this dress so much!  I love the color, the length, the fit, the textured pattern.  I have one more of this dress for sale in size US2 at stcollection.bigcartel.com.

Baby’s outfit: shirt, pants: h&m | baby moccasins
Her outfit: sweater: gap | skirt: old navy | tights: gap | shoes: toms
My outfit: shirt | skirt: oasap | boots: sears 
We went to our cousin’s baby blessing on Sunday and had no time to take pictures so our iPhone had to do, which I think my husband was pretty happy about.  My husband dressed our son and they were matchy matchy on purpose, and my daughter refused to tuck in her sweater underneath her skirt and  was adamant she picked the shoes to go along with her outfit.  She is slowly trying to gain control of her Sunday outfits and I don’t like it one bit!  I might have to go back to bribing her to take her to the dollar store. 😉
On another news, it is December 1st and my husband woke me up this morning with a kiss… without his molestache,  Hooray, Hallelujah!  He no longer looks creepy!

Our Sunday Best

November 24, 2014~ Etc.

Her outfit: shirt & tee: h&mb | skirt: DIY(my old skirt made smaller) | tights: gap | boots: zara
My outfit: striped tee: gap | textured skirt: Spark c/o Trolley Square | tights & hat: romwe | ankle boots: urban outfitters
I got this cute skirt from Spark this past Saturday when Trolley Square invited me and some other bloggers over for dinner at The Spaghetti Factory and for some shopping.  I’ve never been to Trolley Square before but I plan on going back with my husband after Thanksgiving.  I loved that they weren’t crowded and the building has so much history, the building used to serve as a trolley car system for over 130+ years from 1908 to 1945.  They’re the only mall to have Pottery Barn Kids in UT, and other unique shops that no other malls offer such as Spark & Cosset Bath & Body, two shops where I spent most of my money at.  I got some really cute clothes other than this adorable skirt that I’ll have to show you later on!

His outfit: cardigan & pants: h&m | shirt: gifted | bow-tie | moccasins

Her outfit: lace dress: zara | green vest: j.crew | leopard tights & sunglasses : gap | boots: old navy

My outfit: long sleeve top | high-low dress : anthropologie | handbag : nena & co. | boots | hat c/o

My son did not want to take pictures so this is as good as it gets.  My daughter has been letting me dress her on Sundays and I am loving this!  I tell my friend at church to tell my daughter how cute she looks and what a little fashionista she is so that she knows she can trust mommy’s style since she always says, “Mommy, this is Sarah’s style, but it’s not Adi’s style.”  We’ll see how long she lets me dress her and until then, I’m going to enjoy every outfit she lets me style for her!  
Also, taking pictures in direct sunlight is supposedly a big no-no in a photography world but I like it, don’t you?
