Here’s another little holiday shoot my husband recently shot of my boys and I…. I love how he captured their different personalities, and the varied dynamics of our relationships! Jude, my eldest boy, is very thoughtful, sensitive, loving, gentle, kind, and protective of me. Charlie, my youngest, is…. well, a stinker through and through. 😉
Holidate Night
Gooood morning! I’m talking about my favorite kinda nights, this am: Date Nights! To be honest, date nights for me usually consist of jeans and a fun heel, but the festiveness of the holidays makes me want to push it up a few notches. Hence, the dress, some fur, and some party pumps. This dress
Winter Uniform
Talking “real” clothes, today! Yes, my ankles are cold, but I don’t care at all ’cause I’m super cozy-warm everywhere else (and I can’t help but love those frayed, cropped guys)! Anyway… So. Chunky knits, blanket scarves, and warm, winter parkas is pretty much where I live these days in the real world. Seriously, this
Three Peas in a Holiday Pod
Ok. So this name change thing. I’ve been on the fence for a while now, wondering if I should break away from Style Me Perfect, and create my own space for a blog (rather than via my company), and this last month of big changes for our family kind of solidified it for me. The recent
Sweater Weather
Meet my first sweater skirt. It was love at first color-combo-sight! Seriously though, that mint green and grey, sweater-softness, plus a bright punch of red? Christmastime deliciousness. Pssst, these pumps are only $20, too…. Turtleneck: Banana Republic (similar) | Sherpa Denim Jacket: Loft | Sweater Skirt: Moth via Anthropologie | Sunnies: F21 (similar) | Pumps:
Atypical Holiday Look
Holiday parties are right around the corner! Feeling festive, I threw on an atypical, casual, holiday outfit, for me. Meaning, there is no red-and-green, or shimmery metallics, or swingy, tulle-y skirts, but the fringe and fur says, “party” – to me, anyway! I also like the 20s-retro feel of this look, too – just to
Snow, Sleet, or Rain…. Shine + Sparkle On
This NYE shoot was slightly comical. Between the gusty wind, rain, sleet, and snow avalanching down from the trees, it’s a wonder that there are any dry patches of outfit to sport in this look. This very Mary Poppins meets Narnia shoot and weather scenario is actually kind of a great metaphor of my life this
Into the Snowy Woods
Merry Day-After Christmas! I hope you all had a joyful, blessed, Christmas day, and are still able to enjoy the truly most wonderful time of the year We sure are! It’s kinda hard not to, when you live close to beautiful places like this, here in Oregon…. Wearing: Mint Sweater: Gap. Chambray Shirt: Madewell (old –
It's the Little Things
I cannot even tell you how abundantly (and undeservedly), blessed and happy I am. Yesterday started with a solid, ten-minute, giggly cuddle with my two-year-old in my bed (rare treat from that always-on-the-go guy), got sandwiched with a much anticipated arrival of my little sister from NYC, got topped with a dance fest with said
A Full, Striped, Happy Heart
It’s almost the weekend before Christmas!!! How did that happen?! I’m so excited!! My little sister is coming into town soon, and my kiddos are literally bouncing these last days away in anticipation (coulddd be the sugar cookies, too), and their eyes have the cutest, sweetest, extra-twinkle in them – it truly is the most wonderful
