What to Wear: Family Photos

October 19, 2021 by ashadmin No Comments

It’s that time of year… when you have to bribe your husbands and kids to hold it together and smile for the camera for an hour so you can *hopefully* get one good photo for a holiday card. If you leave your session without any meltdowns, tears or feeling like you’ve run a marathon you are ahead of the curve. We’re taking ours tomorrow so I’m preparing myself for the worst and packing a bag of lollipops and other necessary bribes.

One question I get asked pretty often is how to chose outfits for family photos, so I wanted to share some tips.

First off, I pick out what I’m wearing. That might sound selfish, but I think I have every right to be a little selfish here, that way I know I’ll be wearing something I’m comfortable in and can fill in the blanks with the rest of the fam. I typically wear a maxi dress so I’ll share all the options I considered this year.

This year I went with the blue and white, also our photos are at the beach, so I wanted a blue/neutral look for the family. I went through Crosby’s closet and found a dress she already had that I knew she’d love to wear, then went through Wilder’s and Jeff’s and picked out shirts for them that would coordinate.

You don’t want everyone in the same color or it will look too uniform. Keeping in mind our beach location, I went with blue and white for me and Wilder, dusty rose/mauve for Crosby and tan for Jeff.

I also like to take a picture of the clothing together to make sure nothing is clashing and everything flows.

Easy Neutral Fall Outfits

September 27, 2021 by ashadmin No Comments

Happy Monday and happy fall! I can’t believe it’s practically October. I also can’t believe I haven’t gotten a blog post up in weeks. I’ve been busy adjusting to our new schedule with schools, pickups, etc – but I hope to be back to posting more regularly now. Today I wanted to share five outfits I’ve worn recently… a little bit of everything from carpool to cocktails. We’ve actually had a bit of fall weather and it’s been a nice change from summer. It’s supposed to heat up again this week, but I’ll take it while I can.

Six Ways to Style a Shacket

December 8, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

This fall the “shacket” has taken over. Are you familiar with shackets? They’re basically oversized shirt jackets that give off an effortlessly cool vibe. Shirt + Jacket = Shacket. I’ve been on the hunt for a neutral plaid one for awhile now and finally came across this one last week. I purchased it and shared three ways to wear it on instagram, but it sold out so fast. Luckily it’s been re-stocked and is also available in another plaid and solid cream. They’re all so pretty! Today I’m sharing six different ways to style the plaid shacket.

Size note, I’m wearing my normal size and it has a slightly oversized look but the sleeves are fitted. I can still comfortably wear thicker sweatshirts and sweaters under, but if you’re worried about that you an always size up.

3 Ways To Wear White Jeans In The Fall & Winter

November 17, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

I know there’s rules against it, but I love wearing white jeans all year round. I think that rule is pretty outdated anyway. There’s something so fresh about white – in any season. Today I’m sharing three ways to wear white jeans in the fall and winter.

coatigan, tee, jeans, boots, sunglasses

Before I get into it I have a little tip with buying white skinny jeans – size up! You can get away with tighter skinny jeans in darker washes but white shows everything. I always go up a size and feel the most comfortable. I’m wearing this pair in ankle length (I’m 5’4″). They also come in regular, tall and curvy.

Look 1: Winter Whites

coatigan, tee, jeans, boots, sunglasses

Maybe my favorite way to wear white jeans in the colder months is a winter white look. I kept this monochromatic white and then added my favorite camel colored coatigan to make it feel polished. PS – the coatigan is on sale right now for under $100. You already know how much I love it and wear it.

Look 2: Pulled Together Casual

denim jacket (& similar), sweater tee, jeans, booties 

No matter the outfit, I think a slightly oversized denim jacket always adds a cool factor. It’s casual but still feels polished if that makes sense. I went with autumn colors with this rust sweater tee and really comfortable booties.

*Sweater tee is a little itchy but it didn’t bother me.

Look 3: Black and White

sweater, jeans, similar booties 

Wearing a black cowl neck sweater for contrast and love how the animal print booties tie the outfit together. My leopard pair is several years old but I found a similar one here – I also love the look of snake print booties. To me, animal print is always a neutral.

Hope you’re having a good week so far. As always, thank you so much for reading and following.

I can’t believe Thanksgiving is just a couple weeks away! I feel like it always kind of sneaks up on us after Halloween, but this year I’m especially excited for it. Do you dress up for the day or go more casual? I’m all about casual and comfort – basically anything I can wear to chase around two toddlers and eat and drink to my hearts content. Today I wanted to share 8 casual Thanksgiving outfit ideas that you can easily recreate with pieces from your own closet.
