I have majorly fallen in love lately with Boden. Have you ever shopped there? Such cute stuff. I like it because it’s priced great, chic and stylish and perfect for my 31 year old self. The catalogs I get in the mail get one too many dog eared pages of things I would like to order. And don’t get me started on Mini Boden. Oooh the cuteness!!

I really love the pattern and bright color of this sweater. I’ve been wearing it a ton. I think I love it so much because it lets me dress simple. Jeans. Sweater. Watch. Heels. Done and Done. The pattern really takes the place of any accessories needed.

I got these cute heels at Tj Maxx the other day. They’re just a tiny bit higher than a kitten heel and oooh so easy to walk in. Makes a casual date night seem a tad bit more special.

Ok. Well I’ve rambled way too long about clothes now. It always makes me feel a bit weird now a days to write a post strictly about what I am wearing. So to change it up a bit…

It’s 12:50am at the moment and the girls have been up a total of 5 times already. Lord beer me strength. I have to keep whispering to myself “this is just a stage. This is just a stage”. This is just a stage, right? Someone please give me a glimmer of hope that one day I will sleep through the night again without being woken up 100 times.

At least I can wear sunglasses to cover up the dark circles that are forming under my eye until that day arrives.

An impromptu Family Picture

popup7

If you follow me on instagram you probably saw all my pictures of the craft class I taught last weekend. My sweet friend Amy opened up one of the coolest shops I have ever seen about a year ago. It’s full of antique vendors, vintage clothes and handmade goods. I seriously could spend hours in there wondering around. Anyway, they have this really cool space to have classes. I taught a felt flower holiday wreath class. It was packed with around 30 ladies. I also had a little pop up shop that day to showcase some of my necklaces. I won’t lie. It was a pretty awesome day!! It was a whole lot of what I love rolled up into one day! Art, teaching, friends, shopping- what’s not to love!

The shop is in a super cool old building and since we were all there together, we decided last minute to try to take a family photo. We are at an age at the moment that if Rowan isn’t in the mood for pictures there is no way you are getting a picture. There was a lot of squirming and wiggling around so they aren’t the best family photos, but it’s a photo of all of us nonetheless. Something that doesn’t happen all that often. I’ll take whatever we can get. Thanks Adam!

It’s getting to the point where coats are a necessary part of any outfit. Brrrr! That’s why I feel like it’s ok to have lots of coats (right?). For those American folks- Did you have a nice Thanksgiving? We had a wonderful time with Kev’s family. We also got to bring Rowan to her very first movie! We went to see Frozen. It was awesome. Anyone else see it? Wasn’t it so good? Rowan was so cute. Of course I teared up when we walked into the theatre and she held her hand over her mouth and said “whoa!”. I don’t think she had any idea what a movie theatre was. Her sweet little commentary during the movie was the best part. It was cracking me up.

What was with that weird Mickey short in the beginning? We weren’t fans. Rowan thought it was scary. Anyway, I love me some buffalo plaid!

More and more I am becoming a jeans and tshirt kind of gal. My closet used to be filled with way more skirts than jeans. The tables have turned now a days though and I am quite ok with that. I know it’s all everyone is talking about but… don’t you just love the fall? I have a slight (ok, major) addiction to fall coats. I can’t stop, I just love them so much. I picked this one up at forever 21 a few weekends ago. I like to pretend I am extra tough when I wear this “Don’t Push Me” tshirt with it. Kev jokes that it’s the Grandma from Napoleon Dynamite. I just like the looks I get when I am waiting to pick up Rowan in the preschool line.

p.s. I’ve really missed doing outfit posts. It’s one of the major reasons I started jenloveskev. Ha! I can’t believe I used to take 6 outfit posts a week. Crazy. Anyway. I hope to do it more often. That is all.

Our friends invited us to go apple picking with them yesterday after church. And since we didn’t have plans, we hopped in the car right after church and headed down to Kinderhook, NY for a lovely fall afternoon. Sometimes it’s the trips that aren’t planned out that end up being the most fun.

I haven’t been in an American Eagle in quite sometime. After teaching high school kids, I sort of just associate that store with teens. I found myself in an American Eagle last week though looking for jeans for Kev. I noticed they had some high waisted jeggings. I hate that word, but I like what they stand for. Sometimes I find that skinny jeans aren’t skinny enough for me. Jeggings seem to be the way to go. As long as they are more jeans than leggings. Anyway. I decided to try them on for the fun of it and well, they are awesome! I got a black pair and then I found these ankle moto style ones. The waist is high but not too high. Perfect!
