Lita's at the Thread Show

 Here is the crazy outfit I wore to the Thread Show this afternoon!

 I was first going to wear my juicy peep toe boots and no belt. But the lita's added so much color and hipness. The tee was too boxy so added the thin belt to define it a bit and pick the red from the boots.

 I like wearing crazy combos to thread show cause for one there is no other venue I could wear such outfits and for two the crazier you dress the more attention you get there and gives me a chance to promote the blog.

Feather necklace which looks so high class is another F21 gem. The ring is thread show purchase from last year.

 I love tulle skirts. This one is actually a tank dress. I wish though it was a bit longer. I kept pulling it down.

 

My georgous new Lita's. You know these people were familiar when they didn't just say 'nice shoes' they would come and say 'I love your Lita's!'

Mom's fedora from France is getting so much wear in my care!

THREAD SHOW

Met my sister, her friend, my mother and my two friend's at the famous Thread Show this afternoon after we returned from the pumpkin patch and the kids went down for a nap.

Shortly after we got there I was approached by this group that was doing a photo project of everyone's cool shoes:

 This was the angle he was taking...

They did a face shot!

 

Here is my mom at the designer rack where they were selling items 80% off due to a small defect. She is holding a Miu Miu jean and tweek jacket here (she claims she can make this):

And this Valentino coat was so pretty. Mom thinks she can cover her old coat with lace like this:

I am actually only 1 inch taller than my mom but in the Lita's the difference is quite high! :)

Tried on this shaggy sleeve jacket but it was too much.

 These two ladies were very excited when I said I was a fashion blogger and wanted to be photographed...

My friend was super quick to answer a giveaway question and won this super cool white knit fedora and a tunic top!

Quick post to show the early part of our day. 

This was the outfit I wore to visit a pumpkin farm with my family and my brother's family this morning.

 I first wore my light denim shorts but of course they felt super tight and uncomfortable and hence my reason for dieting. I have been getting a lot of comments and questions about why I was dieting. After being totally inactive for 3 weeks while working I have been feeling all my bottoms getting tight. I actually don't care as much about the weight gain but I am paranoid about my vast collection of clothes not fitting me. Hence my motivation to loose the weight I gained during those 3 weeks. Plus the fact that we are going on vacation in one week! People at work were asking how many pounds was I trying to loose and I realized i have never weighed myself nor do I care what the scale says. All I care is that my clothes fit!

She absolutely adores these hi-tops I got her from Children's Place online. Wants to wear them with everything and they look really cool with everything!

The cutest little pumpkin!

Showing Daddy some love!

Pretty corn!

 Saw these guys leaving Sizzler afterwards! My husband kept yelling at me to not take their photo and that they would get mad. But on the contrary they loved it and some even waved!

British Mustard

I initially picked to wear my red dress under this tee with my black sandals for today but the weather felt so cold in the morning no way I was going bare legged. So went with this combo instead...

 Got to add my spiky bracelet set and the bronzish gold chain which went nicely with the boot detail!

 Added the burgundy shrug as I felt cold ...

TODAY:
So nice to see the kids again as I didn't get to last night since I arrived at 11 PM.  I kept on hugging and kissing them all day long. And they were more than happy to reciprocate as the longing for each other was mutual. First on our morning agenda was kids' gymnastic classes. My daughter was so happy to be wearing her new leotard we got last week. It is a one piece short-all thing with purple velvet bottom and silvery glitter top. She says she feels like Ariel. She is getting so good and loves it. And amazingly so does my son. He looks forward to it and seems to enjoy it. After the classes we went to a b-day party of their friend from pre-school. It was great seeing all my friends and being a mommy. Stayed home in the afternoon and my dad came for a visit and we all played with the kids while my hubby grocery shopped. After unpacking, putting things away and sorting out toys and dinner and etc...I finally sat down by 10PM. And once again concluded that life of a stay home mom is hell a lot more tiring than a 13 hour work day. But so much more rewarding just not monetarily.
