Lookbook (Partner in Crime)

{Blazer: Anthropologie, Shirt: Anthropologie,
Jeans: Seven for all Mandkind, Shoes: Tory Burch}



Sorry posting has been so sporadic, but the new early morning schedule wreaks havoc on the lookbook posts. This look was from this past weekend. Little princess had a friend's birthday to go to at Chuck E. Cheese. She decided that she wanted to join me in the outfit pics. She's learning early. Note the message on the cute tee "More shoes please!" Ha!

Mad Dash for Halloween

This time of year is always super busy. The in-laws on their way here for their annual trip to Colorado, Halloween events and the Princess' birthday all in the same week. I wasn't going to do much for Halloween this year because last year I had the crazy idea of combining Halloween and birthday together in one big bash. I thought I'd make it easy on myself this year, but two hours before sundown I decided I couldn't just let Halloween go. So on the eve of Halloween I made a mad dash down to the basement digging through my spooky stash. I managed to throw a few things together to turn the house into a fright fest. I even squeezed in a quick pumpkin carving lesson for hubby. How on earth he'd ever live through childhood without carving a pumpkin is beyond me.






When it comes to event details, I have a hard time with store bought anything and that includes costumes. I had my heart on dressing the little princess as Bjork this year. I convinced her that she was going to be a beautiful "swan princess." I was rolling on the ground laughing when she finally put on my Bjork creation. She's a good sport. Candy bribes didn't hurt either.

I have a huge favor to ask of you dear readers. Gilt is hosting a Best Dressed Halloween costume contest for kids and I desperately want to win. Not only because I think the little princess is the best dressed, but to score $1000 in Gilt credit.
