Today I'm so excited to be collaborating with the fun and gorgeous Meghan from Citrus Refreshing! Meghan has beautiful style, perfectly choosing outfits with fabulous accessories. Take a moment and visit her over at her blog for more details on her look!
Meghan and I are bringing you day to night looks! I love putting together posts like this to show versatility of clothing pieces. These utility chinos from J.Crew have to be a favorite purchase for me this season. They are super comfortable and very slimming. I wear them a lot! So by having the top and my chinos as the base for my day to night look, I just changed out the jacket, shoes, and accessories!
On a different note... Last week was the start of Preschool - YIPEEEEE! Can you hear me from Philadelphia squealing with delight? Don't get me wrong I love my nuggets, but every minute of every day of, "Mama, can I do a project?", "Mama, can we make a craft?", "Mama, can I help you?", "Mama, can I have a snack?" (five minutes after the last snack..)... Well, let's just say it's nice to have a few hours to do what I'd like to do :).
Nugget story:
After school one day Ella out of the blue asks me, "Mama how did Jesus go up to heaven after he died on the cross?" (she is a deep little girl)
Me: "Jesus flew up to meet God and God met him with a big hug."
Jack: "I think Jesus picked up his butt and flew"
Now you might think that sounds crazy or disrespectful if you've never seen The Lorax. If you have, you'll know what that funny kid is thinking about.
Happy Monday, thanks for reading. Don't forget to click over and visit Citrus Refreshing!

I love both your ensembles - both completely wearable and both on-trend without being trendy.
ReplyDeleteLove both looks! I have a pair of camo jeans that I have not put to good use and I think I can use these looks as inspirations.
