My husband is learning

vest: tjmaxx (similar)   shirt: old navy (similar)  jeans: kohls  boots: discovery (similar)

The other day Chris told me that he watched a segment on a morning show about what fashion trends were in, so that he could tell me what I needed to buy so I could talk about it on my blog.

Let's just pause and say "Awwwww. That is so sweet of him to think of me and my fashion choices."

He told me one of the trends was fur vests, which I already wanted.

Especially after seeing this outfit, I knew I wanted to try to copy it.

However, once I did buy this vest, he is convinced it's because he told me that was trendy.

He also told me that I should try "block coloring" now too.

At least he got the fur vest part right.

Happy Wednesday!

Exhausted

top: h&m (years old - similar - $15)  skirt: old navy (similar)  bracelet: francesca's

You would think based off how tired I am that I have never worked a full day in my life. 

So all I have for you today is a total outfit copy.

Oh, Sydney from the daybook. 

If only I could have your perfect top bun too . . .

. . . and if I thought I could do well my first day of school wearing heels like that.

Overall, the first day of school was a success. 

While I'm sure I'll have a few challenges this year, I will currently revel in the fact that I heard 

"Wow. This is the best class ever."

and

"Mrs. Vale is the nicest teacher I've had so far." 

and say that we started the year off on a good foot! 

(I shouldn't even tell you that I had to look up how to spell revel, as I wrote reveal the first time.  

Good thing I only teach third grade.)

Happy day before Friday!

See? Now I look forward to the weekends again too. 

Dear Lauren,

 skirt: old navy ($8)  shoes: old navy ($1)  shirt: loft  ($8)  necklace: ?

Aren't you happy that we bought the same skirt on the same day in two different Old Navy's, one in Illinois and one in Vermont without even knowing it? 

And aren't you so happy that now we can copy Kristin Cavallari? 

I'm sure she spent a lot more money on her skirt then we did.  

I just forgot my sunglasses in my picture.  

Can you believe that I just reached 500 followers?  I'm still pretty shocked that anyone besides you and Lauren and mom read my blog.  

And not that I want summer to go any faster, but I am pretty excited that in 4 weeks we get to see you and your sweet family to go camping together for a week! 

I love you Lauren!

Love,
