As we reach the end of the month, I like to look back at what I wore! My blog is my space for sharing what I wear as a stay at home mom. a place where I try to be creative as well as share my travels and tips about life, organization and mommyhood. I feel like I am getting better with feeling content with what I have and more specific with what I would like to add to my closet. I am about 40 days into my no shopping for clothes and am loving the outfits I have created this month. One of my friends (and neighbor) gave be…

Any time I see someone wearing something cute there is that pull of “oh that is so cute, maybe I should get it”. There is also that smart voice in my head saying that I do not need anything else. I shopped well this year and am ready for fall and winter! As we enter fall and approach the end of the year, that means several things for us as far as where money will be spent: a couple of vacations, birthdays, anniversary and also Christmas. Do I need anything in my closet at this point? NO! So my goal is to find inspiration from others and also from myself…

Thanks again to Ada for asking me to join her with her Thursday Moda Link up! Today we are sharing how we would transition a summer dress for fall! Being able to wear your clothes for more than one season of the year gives you more bang for your buck and gives you opportunities to be creative with your clothes . One simple way to do that is to change accessories and add layers. Today I am sharing two dresses and how I would wear them in the fall. Now we took these pictures on a nice humid and hot afternoon (it was in the 90s) so excuse my hair!…

Every year, on the first Monday of September we celebrate Labor Day. The day celebrates the social and economic achievements of American workers. As on other holidays celebrating our country, its history and its people I like to wear patriotic colors without being overly obvious about it. For this day, as I am attempting to refrain from shopping for the rest the year, I shopped my closet and came up with two outfits. I like to have different options, one a little dressier than the other. Don’t forget to stop by Ada’s blog to see more of her outfits. Shorts and Graphic Tee First of all, I had my first…

Welcome back to Mireille’s August outfits! Today’s looks center around shorts and more dresses and skirts! Shorts Finding the perfect layering button up was easier than expected: a quick excursion to TJMaxx delivered! I love the material and the fit! Grocery shopping day: hands free backpack purse and simple outfit. Laid back look for a laid back Sunday afternoon: we flew our kites in our backyard and enjoyed our pergola. Poshmark fun find in the blouse: I tried to add some variety in my blouses and tops this year. Bringing fall a little with fallish colors and leopard! I probably will be wearing sandals for another month or so but…

Another month of winning outfits in my book! There were a couple looks I did not include because I did not like them and did end up donating one of those items worn. While I am not sharing any links this week, I have a reason behind that. As I gear myself for several months of hopefully no clothes shopping, I want to encourage others to shop their closets as I will shop mine or to make a list of the types of items you need for your closet. I am always tempted on Instagram or with my daily blog reading but I actually do have quite a nice fall/winter…

I am not sure how long I have followed Andrea’s blog regularly but I would say probably a year or two. Since I have been regular on Instagram, I have really enjoyed seeing her in action in her stories and love her bubbly nature. Her style is feminine but also practical and her #walkand talk stories are fun and intereactive with polls about all kinds of subjects! Her fashion sense often inspires me (I have bought a few things after seeing her feature them and I am even shopping her closet for fall:she will be sharing more in her Insta stories next week: so many cute things to grab!). Now…

I recently bought this shirt as I wanted to have a layer for sleeveless dresses for church but then realized it was quite versatile. I quickly thought about 5 different ways I could wear it. I found this on the clearance rack at TJMaxx for $12 and I love the cotton gauzy material as well as the loose fit and tie. It is a reminder to not look at size as it is XS but fits me well without being tight at all. Over a Sleeveless Dress I love this Target tiered dress but it is not appropriate for my church with the deep V and sleeveless sleeves. I cuffed…
