1. I'm not actually wearing the outfit this week. I've been fighting a sinus infection for the past few days and my face is quite swollen. I look a bit scary!
2. I'm not actually wearing today's featured outfit until Sunday for our family photo session. Since I have felt like crap all week, we haven't really gone anywhere. Sure, I have ran to the store alone in the evenings, but that's been about the extent of my outings this week. I just feel crummy.
So, with all of that being said, here is this weeks featured outfit! AND A BONUS OUTFIT!
(And a promise to come back next week wearing my Thanksgiving Day outfit!)
Family Photo Day
Boots: Urbanog.com (similar)
Here's the deal: This is a super simple outfit for family photos. I like to keep it basic-no busy prints for this girl when getting photographed! I *may* add a red scarf. As a matter of fact, I will more than likely add a red scarf. L's dress is Christmas plaid, so that will go well together.
I feel my best in the jeggings and boots so that should help me feel comfortable getting my picture taken, which I can't hardly stand to do anymore.
***BONUS OUTFIT***
L's Christmas Dud's
Top: Hand-me-down
Dress: The tag says Children's Place, but it's a hand-me-down, too.
Tights: Wal-Mart (similar)
Boots: K-Mart (exact)
We love our hand-me-downs! I have had to purchase a few things here and there for L since she has been born, but between the hand-me-downs and, what we like to call "Grandma Splurges", this kid strays pretty well outfitted.
L's outfit is a bit different this year. The past couple of years she has worn really frilly Christmas dresses. (Think sparkles and glitter...I know, I know....but she's my little girl and she looked so cute....) Anyway, this year I wanted to do something a bit more comfortable, yet still cute.
What do you like to wear for family photos?
I hope you feel better!! Love the boots & outfits. Stopping by from the DBB. Theresa @DearCreatives
ReplyDeleteThank you Theresa! Vitamin C and honey and lemon tea have been my best friends for almost a week. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteHey Sara,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I hope you are feeling better soon. Thanks for sharing even when you're feeling under the weather. I think simple outfits are best for picture taking and Lynzi's little plaid dress is darling. Thanks for sharing. Feel better. <3 Kim
Thank you Kim!
DeleteI love those boots! And Lynzi's outfit is ADORABLE!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Amber!
DeleteLove the boots. Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm all about hand me downs, sales, clearance, and promo codes (I do most of my shopping online)! I never pay full price unless I just can't live without it! Can't wait to see the family pics, I'm sure they're gonna be great! Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks TaMara! I am the same way-I am a BIG sale shopper! When I buy things, I always think about what I can dress it up or down with, etc. I believe it comes from years of working retail and having to do add on sales, dressing mannequins, etc. I have gotten quite smart and strategic with clothing since having Lynzi. It is such a blessing that we have people to get hand-me-downs from, too! I love 'em!
