Mom-Approved: Black & Blue{no beating involved}







Dress: Vintage | Heels: Target{old} similar here | Bag: Cynthia Rowley | Necklace: Via shop on Etsy now closed, but definitely check out ILY Couture | Watch: Target | Bangle: Target

I'm loving this season's blue and black combo. Last year, we saw a lot of black and brown. I think that is clearly{and in my opinion, always} in style still, but the blue adds a fresh, new color that hasn't been popular for years. My next look for executing this modern color combo is an all black ensemble and pairing with navy or cobalt flats.....I'm totally picturing it right now and LOVE it. Can't wait til I can make it reality. Just gotta get these beauties!!!  ;)

Have a splendid day!

Mom-Approved: Get your riding boots ready








 
Top: ZARA | Riding Pants: ZARA, similar here | Boots: Gianni Bini | Faux Fur Vest: bebe, similar here | Bag: Vintage, Similar here and on major sale!!!| Earrings: Forever21 | Necklace: J.Crew Factory | Bracelet: Target | Watch: Target

I'm cheap....not in a slutty way, so you can stop holding your breath. ;)
I mean: I ONLY buy things if they're on sale.....or at just really cheap like F21. So I apologize for not usually having legit links to buy stuff. I'm so cheap, most things I buy are like 75% + extra 30% or something. So it's all sold out before I get a chance to link it. But I do try my hardest to find similar styles.
Happy Monday!

Mom-Approved: Stretch Jeans and Swing Coat







Top: Peter Nygard{borrowed from Mom} | Trousers: GAP, similar here  and here | Swing coat: Isaac Mizrahi for Target | Bag: Kate Spade {ancient} | Flower Bracelet: Forever21 | Black and Gold Bangle: Target

Why this outfit works: The jeans look chic but they are so deliciously comfy.....like 'I could sleep in them' comfy; but I won't cause that would wierd my Sexy beast out rubbing a denim bum in the middle of the night. My usual uniform is jeans and a shirt, but a cute one. And usually with heels to dress it up, and this is perfect.
Hope everyone has a splendid Friday! :)

Being in Florida, it was 90!!! degrees yesterday, so I have yet to unload my winter wardrobe. I'm hearing stories of snowfall up north already and I'm still able to walk outside naked and still feel hot lay out at the beach. Definitely ready for this humidity to calm down so I can at least wear boots to the pumpkin patch this week.

Mom-Approved: Coordinating with the Babes





I was planning on doing a fashion post, but it turned into a photo bombingfamily gathering{minus the sexy beast} since we all color-coordinated. It wasn't on purpose, I promise! It worked out great! I rarely get pictures with my son since he's either taking the picture or running away. Can you tell I had fun with PicFX app? For some odd reason, filters make almost every picture look so much better.

Me: Blouse: J.Crew | Denims: Guess | Wedges: MaddenGirl via ROSS | Bracelet: BCBG | Watch: Target | Earrings: Target

Robey: Shirt: Crewcuts | Denims: H&M | Camo shoes: Gap | Redneck Hat: Wally World

Aubrey: Dress: Gap | Sandals: Target | Necklace: Mommy's closet J.Crew | Bracelet: F21


So what do you think? Do you like the filtered pics or should I stick to the norm? Maybe a little of both?
