Since I only wore yesterday's outfit for just a couple hours figured I can wear some of the pieces again.
Same concept but less dressy.
Outfit: Instead of yesterday's satin brown pants, wore brown khaki pants. Same teal t-neck and same chunky fair isle sweater. Instead of cream high heeled ankle boots, wore flat brown boots. Instead of the gold glitter belt, went with skinny double brown belt and kept the t-neck untucked. Instead of the long and heavy necklace went with a smaller stone version that is not as clunky or long.
Activity: Went to a playdate at a friend's house in the morning. After naps, squeezed in a grocery shopping, a return and a frame purchase at Michael's and then rushed to the park playdate for some fresh air before the rains come later this week.
I find running errands to be a big challange with 2 kids. Even if the stores are in the same strip mall they seem to be never that close. You either have to park close to one store than stroller or shopping cart carry the kids betwen stores or deal with the hassle of putting and buckling them in and out of car seats for a 5 minute run in errand at a store. Haven't figured out which method is better. At times like these it is good to wear flats and have layers on top so you shed the top layer when you get hot from all the running and lifting.

Super Bowl Party
So, cheated first half of the day as I wore my black velour sweat suit. Kids woke up all through the night and had no motivation what so ever to wear anything else in the morning.
Napped while they are napping and got some energy and motivation.
Outfit: Brown satin pants, Teal cotton t-neck tucked in, bronze glittery thin belt, cream ankle high boots with ruffle trim, long gold chain/blue stone necklace and chunky fair isle cardigan with fur trimmed hood. Before the cardigan the outfit does seem too dressy but the chunky cardigan brings it down to more casual and makes it very cozy. Great for the rare and seldom cold days like this one for San Diego.
Activity: Super Bowl party at a friend's house with another couple of friends all with kids same age as ours.
Outfit worked most of the time. The necklace got in the way couple times banging on my daughter's face but other than that pretty functional.

Matching Daughter
Hosted my daughter's 1st Birthday Party. Thought it would be small if I only invited 8 of her friends but since each baby is from a family of 4 plus our family hosted a 52 people party at our house while it was pouring outside which means no outside space could be used.
Dressed my daughter in the puffiest and cutest ballet tutu, so had to wear something that wouldn't clash with her. Was going to wear a really cute white dress but it was too cold for a summer dress.
So...
Outfit: black leggings, grey tunic lenght sweater that has a pictures of two legs in black fishnet stockings and chains on ankles but in pink ballet shoes on point. Ballet shoe necklace, ugg boots.
I wish I could come up with a flashier outfit but didn't have time.
My mom's outfit on the other hand was very creative. She had this light blue top with rosettes peeking under the pink flowered cardigan. Light colored jeans, with a pink studded belt and bronze pink wedge loafers. Very flashy stylis but yet appropriate to the ballerina b-day girl.
