Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough

 Here is a casual Monday outfit to face the start of a crazy week…

Inspired by a lookbook in Shopbop site:


I think just adding the chunky loafers makes this a bit interesting. And i love these mid waist jeans from J Crew…. Oh my goodness so comfortable and stretchy and yet look great!










Hoodie - vintage (can't remember it is soooo old)
Top - Target
Jeans - J Crew
Loafers - Coach

MONDAY:
Started the day with some aggressive plans but all went upside down when my car battery died after dropping off the kids at school… I managed to drive home before it gave out and called AAA and had to wait for that. And of course by the time it was fixed I barely made it to class to volunteer.
Then it was grocery shopping for the week, stopping home to unload, then to Dr's for a shot then back home to help my friend to do her daughter's hair and make-up for the Nutcracker dress rehearsal and then to pick up my son from a playdate take him swimming then pick up my daughter from a playdate and come home and cook shrimp linguini feed and bath the kids, pick up the house, 3 loads of laundry…
So, yes, that was my day….

SATURDAY:
We had a busy busy weekend…
Saturday morning started early with our family Xmas Photo shoot. I totally forgot to do my outfit though!
The shoot went great and fast. But then selecting photos takes FOREVER…
Afterwards we went to the tree lot to buy kids' real tree.
And when we came home we also opened our new (fake) 10 feet tree. It is just a tad big!




After the tree decoration and set-up, took my little girl ice skating and this time rented skates myself to have fun with her…



SUNDAY:
This was another crazy day started the morning super early driving south to my son's swim meet where warm up started at 7:30 AM!. He had two meets 200 and 100 yard free style for boys 8 and under.
He was competing against boys a year older than him (he is 7) so didn't place but beat 3 and 4 swimmers in each event out of 8 swimmers. That 200 yard race went on forever as it is 8 lengths of the pool. I was so proud of him. :)











Then we came home to rest just a bit… My in laws arrived… They went with my hubby and son to the Charger Patriots game while I went to watch our local Holiday Parade with my daughter and friends….












And here is my son and Hubby at the charger game!
