I have been passing the cotton fields for the past 2 weeks and have been worried that the cotton would be gone before I would be able to shoot an outfit at sunset but my son and I made it happen. Then the following evening we went back and took some family pictures. I actually thought at first that they were soybean fields when I took pictures there in my white dress but no, cotton it is! Today’s outfit is a copy cat outfit of an outfit Shelly shared on her blog last week. I love Shelly’s blog and she has inspired some of my outifts numerous times. Prior to…

Today, I am looking back at my outfits for the month of September. I see a lot of outfits that I really like so you may see some of these again in September with hopefully some extra layers if the weather cools off. I did not spend much of my money on clothes this month but had some birthday money and a gift card that I was able to use. I am now implementing a no shopping month for October as I have all kinds of new clothes to wear! I wore this as part of my 4 ways to wear a utility vest post and to church on a…

It took me over a year between deciding to add some camo to my wardrobe and actually purchasing some camo for my closet. But I now have a soft camo tee from Nickel and Suede (looks like it is no longer available) that I love and these camo pants from TJMaxx. Today I am sharing 3 simple ways to wear camo pants. I am fairly basic in my looks most days as you can see in this post. Check out Shelly from Queen in Between though with her awesome print mixing in her Wednesday post last week! With a white tee I actually had to update my white tee and…

Earlier this month, I gave myself a budget of $25 to go thrifting. I redeemed some credit card points in the form of a Visa gift card and decided that was the max I would spend on my outing. Well, it turns out I only needed a fraction of that! I spent a total of $7+ tax since it was dollar day! I purchased 4 tops, 2 skirts and 1 little pouch. Here are my 3 favorite items: White House, Black Market skirt I think this is one of my favorite thrift stores buys of all time. This cute skirt has stripes, pockets and will go with so many tops.…

One of my most used vest in the fall is my olive utility vest. It is a few years old and I was inspired by Putting me Together to purchase one after she reshared a post with multiple ways to wear it. Here are some now and later looks for last summer and early fall. You probably can copy these look with a blush, burgundy or other colored vest! Denim shorts and striped shirt A perfect look for the end of the summer! It is too hot here for jeans yet (apart from the occasionnal cooler day) so I will probably still wear my denim shorts well into September. Pair…

I actually kind of forgot about my jumpsuit until I was brainstorming ideas for fashion blog posts for the fall. Then I remembered my Amazon black jumpsuit and how comfortable it is! Now, here in Georgia, we will probably have warm weather till close to November with the occasional need for an extra layer on some days. With that in mind, I came up with several outfits using my jumpsuit as a base to build on. Fall accessories I wore this outfit to run some errands this past Friday and while the morning started at 64 degrees, the high was 90 so there was no need for layers. I used…

Last week, I took the boys on a roadtrip to visit a college friend and a church friend that live about an hour from each other in Missouri/Kansas. The trip takes about 12 hours so we made our first stop in St Louis where we visited the zoo. I will share our experience there on Wednesday’s post. After reading Grace’s post on Graceful Rags on how to pack a capsule wardrobe for a trip using a color theme, I decided to follow her example and chose a coral and navy theme for my wardrobe. Our trip included outdoors and indoors activities and it turned out that the weather was actually…
