what i wore: my new favorite sweater!
May 1, 2012
it’s that time again! time to link up with lindsey for what i wore wednesday.
this week i was driving down the street in my neighborhood and realized something:
my husband is pretty dang lucky.
i get dressed EVERY day.
that’s all i’ll say.
it wasn’t always the case, but i feel so much better about myself when i put a little effort into my wardrobe.
in fact, for the first time in a LONG time i actually went to Costco straight from the gym. gross. stinky, sweaty, gross. i hated that costco trip. yuck. and wouldn’t you know it, i ran into owen’s teacher from church! of course! oh well…
anyhow, this week i just want to rave about my new favorite item in my closet.
it’s pink.
it’s striped.
it’s girly.
and lacy.
and it’s a cardigan.
what more could a girl ask for?!?! i’m in love.
and i wore it twice this week. and also at SNAP! shhh…

what i wore wednesday – lisa leonard!
March 13, 2012
the other day i laid out all my pretty lisa leonard necklaces to admire.
swoon.
i love that they all represent a different part of me.
a specific time of my life or something i hold dear.
wasn’t long before a curious admirer came along.
and spotted his name.
couldn’t you just eat him up?!
one of my only prerequisites for jewelry is that it has to be kid proof. these passed the test long ago, but now that owen and henry both have such an interest in letters and words and recognize their names, they have a whole new meaning to them and to me. i love the excitement in their eyes when they see mama wearing their names around her neck!
soon enough, henry joined in on the fun.
where is your name, henry?
and then, (don’t tell dad) they had to pretend to be mom… just for a minute.
don’t you love it when your jewelry tells a story? i sure do.
i know my boys wear it cuter, but here’s how i wore my lisa leonard this week.
sweetheart tree necklace: lisa leonard designs
striped cardi: H&M
floral scarf: target
giant felt rosie: allora handmade
my sunshine necklace: lisa leonard designs
striped sweater: h&m
spazz: me
tiny squares necklace: lisa leonard designs
aqua shirt: downeast basics
coral dress: thrifted
fluffs: allora handmade
