Fall Fashion: Friday

I kind of feel like my mom has inspired or impacted every aspect of what
"fashion" means to me today.

When I was a kid I thought her need to be "put together" was silly, or that she acted "too pretty" with her lip stick and high heels, but now that I'm all grown up, those same high heels and bright lips makes me feel EMPOWERED! It makes me feel like a woman to wear lipstick. So honestly, everything "fashionable" about me, is due to my mother because she has never been able to fit into any kind of box, she has never "gone along with the trends" she just wears what she likes and she always looks cute. So cheers to you mom. I am often times jealous of the outfits you manage to put together.

You're cute mom. I like shopping with you and I'll admit, you're WAY more fashionable than I am.
I said it... Get over yourself. You're probably reading this smiling.
I am wearing:
Bird sweater: Anthropologie- gift from Mom
Shirt: Polo-thrifted
Skirt- American Eagle-thrifted
Tights-gap
Boots-Nordstrom rack
Scarf-Buffalo Exchange

We went to the Post office, thrift store in search of a big black sheet, and got some lunch in this outfit.
THEN when we got home and I threw these clothes off and put on my sweats and hoodie.
When we were visiting friends in Texas a few months ago, they pointed out that every time we went somewhere, 
I put on my outfit and then when we got home, I changed into something comfortable.
DOES ANYONE ELSE DO THIS OR AM I THE ONLY IDIOT WHO
CHANGES CLOTHES MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY????
When I'm at home, I wear PJ'S but if I have to go somewhere or have a guest over, I change into appropriate clothes.
 Is this normal? (please tell me someone else does this too...)

Here are a few pics of my little man sandwich from this past week. 
We had another play date at the pumpkin patch and he rode another really fun ride.
 Smiles and clapping to prove how fun it was! 

Conrad enjoying his sea weed snack on the ride....

{Happy Friday!}

  1. Such lovely photos on your blog!!! Those boots are awesome. And no, you aren't the only one who changes. Unless I'm already in a t-shirt and jeans, I immediately change when I get home. Which is why the laundry pile is always out of control :)

  2. I LOVE your outfit. The whole thing is absolutely amazing. Your boots are fantastic and the scarf is so fun and bright! But mostly I love your bird sweater! You look great! And your little guy is probably, no he is one of the cutest little boys I've even seen.

  6. I totally change clothes multiple times a day. I try to rectify it by doing most of the laundry, but that rarely happens.

  11. I thought I was the only one! I change into "normal clothes" when I go somewhere and the second I get home I change into comfy clothes. I sometimes don't get how someone could stay dressy all day long at their house. I'll have to try it :)

    ((You're style in fab! Get 'em girl))

  14. Chels, this is by far my FAVORITE outfit this week. You look young, chic and just cute, cute, cute. The girls at my work say you look like a model (a short model, thou) ha-haha. And thank you for the sweet compliment. I think dressing up is lots of fun, but also just putting on lipstick with compfy sweats to go to the grcoery store is pretty okay too. Love YA Lotz, Mom

  22. I think my neighbors probably think I'm crazy because every time I leave the house, I'm wearing something different.. some days I change like 3 or 4 times. Oh well, I like to dress for whatever I'm doing.
