Fall Fashion: Floral & Stripes

I am wearing:
Skirt & Belt: F21
I love the skirt. It has pockets and it's comfortable!
Shirt: H&M (thrifted)
Flats: Old Navy

This afternoon we surprised Dustin with some coffee to get him through the rest of the day.
It was the first time I got to see exactly what he does at work and got a little tour of the lab.
(the lady at the star bucks drive thru started laughing when I asked her to write him a little message on the cup.
I guess she doesn't get those kinds of requests everyday.)
{I think my husband is grateful that I didn't show up in my mommy-uniform....yoga pants and old shirt.}

Being a stay at home mom, sometimes you feel like you never get to dress cute because what's the point when you're hanging out with a toddler all day, but this weekend, being my birthday weekend, I had lots of opportunities to get dressed up. Again, thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes. I had a wonderful day.

{Happy Fall Fashion Week!}

  5. Love the skirt! I am a huge fan of pockets in skirts and dresses. And the message on the Starbucks cup, too funny. I work at Starbucks and if someone asked me to do that, I would have been laughing the rest of the day.
