Peach Fuzz

I am loving today's outfit. It is allowing me to re-use this dress that I bought with great hopes of it being something I always wear to hardly been worn and my new faux fur vest.

When I started my search for a faux fur vest I told my mom, as I always do since she shops more than I do and has the same talent of finding the best pieces in the midst of chaotic discount stores. She found this at Kohl's or Marshalls I can't remember. But it was a great find at $40. The fur is luxurious to the touch and not cheap feeling. I could belt it if I wanted but also wear it open like this. Some of the ones I had seen attached belts and I didn't want to be forced to that look each time.

And here is the dress. It is peach colored and made from a very thin soft cotton. It has an attached tank piece underneath with gold sequins on the neck. Ties on the hip for a blousan effect. It is just that I never could figure out how to style it. I think it became a great layering piece to the dark brown vest. The cognac slouch boots compliments the warm weather look of the vest.

I added the multi stranded front strecth belt at the lower waist line since the dress needed something. This belt came with a summer skirt I bought and it was a bit too loose to scynch it at my waist. My mom shortened it and now I will get to use it so much more.

My super old leather slouch boots. With no side zippers they are a bit pain to take off which is not good with kids but they were a pre-kids purchase and I do love the way they look. And their thick moderately low heels does make them wearable even when I am with the kids.

Here is the gold bib necklace I bought last season. It is fabric in the back and very soft and comfy to wear regardless of its looks. it always instantly dresses up anything I wear.

Today's Activities: Took the kids to see the 'Willy Wonko's Choclate Factory' play performed by junior theater group with our outdoor preschool class. I was worried about my daughter sitting through it but she did pretty good. My son who is usually 100%  focused on any live performance was a bit distracted with the seats that kept folding on him since he wasn't heavy enough to weigh them down. They did great though and loved the play. I kept telling my son he could be up there one day when he is a bit older and he loves that idea. The kid was born to perform so I can't wait to have him give it a try when he turns 4 which is the youngest age they can be part of acting programs. Afterwards a mommy friend and I fed them lunch at a cafe next to the theater and then had them run around in an innner courtyard art shop area. They both napped today! Went for a bit of shopping ( for home and kids only, I am not buyiing anything for myself this month), then my mom met me to take the kids. I have a super early root canal appointment tomorrow morning (yuck) so they are going to spend the night there. Of course to make most of this my husband and I are going on a date night as soon as he gets home which is why I am posting early. :)

Here is my daughter in our front yard this morning as I was taking my photos:
