Favorite Fall Jeans

Hello Foxy Friends! Happy Hump Day! How it is November? This month The Blended Blog ladies and I are giving a month of our Fall Favorites. It can be anything, from clothes, to shoes, to things around the house. Each week I've decided to show you something different in my Fall Favorites list.

I bought these jeans at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, and oh my word, they are the most comfortable things ever! They're under $100 and you feel like you're wearing pajamas. The top is super comfortable too, I can't find the exact one but this one and this one are similar.

Now onto my favorite hair style. I usually do this when I'm on day 4 or 5 hair, click here to see how to extend the life between washings. Simple top knot, hides the fact that your hair is slight greasy, and it looks cute too. Seems like every time I do one it turns out different, which I absolutely love how it's always slightly different. This is my favorite Dry Shampoo.

The bobby pins are using are amazing. I didn't even know there was a different between the Target/CVS kinds...yes there is a different. I use these, and it's a game changer, seriously. Click here for the bronze bobby pins and click here for the black ones.

What are some of your favorites this fall? Link up down below!

Fall Staple - Scarves

Happy Hump Day Foxy Fashion Friends! Today is the last week of The Blended Blog October Style Series.

I just love scarves, they instantly spruce up an outfit and the best part no more jewelry is needed.

You guys I think I am one braided crown away from mastering the braided crown. I finally got the other side, I was good until I got to the opposite side and going back up my head...I always got confused which piece needed to do what...it had to be documented, so I took a picture. These were taken just after getting home from work, so 13 hours later and still looking good.

Some other scarves that I'm eying for the Fall and winter months. I love multi color scarves because it can go with so many outfits with a ton of different colors for completely different looks.

And now onto the silly part of the program...I decided randomly to try a stop motion video...not sure why, it's less than 5 seconds, the last part got cut off when uploading to Vimeo, but you get the idea. Now to think of something fun and then a thousand pictures...for 30 seconds of video.

Polka Dots Are My Favorite

Hello Foxy Fashion Friends. Quick post today, back from my birthday dinner, belly full and happy. We found a new Mexican Restaurant, which makes me happy since we hadn't been happy with our previous one. Anyway, this week I just did my hair once. I know, getting lazy in my old age, haha.

 

I just love this hair style, I need to work on the side profile, but other than that, it's pretty much exactly how I wanted it.

In case you just really wanted to see a close up of my head, haha!

That's all for this week, I'm sort of feeling uninspired lately...have any ideas on new hair styles you want me to try out? OH and I am doing my hair during the week, just haven't taken any pictures...like yesterday, I got up early and curled my hair and did it half up and forgot to take a picture...darn! Oh well, next week.

Join us each week for a Pick, Pair, Share! Pick one thing from each column and get inspired! Link up down below!

Fall Challenge - Week 2

Hello all! 2nd week of the Style Challenge*, and I'm back with 7 more outfits. Well 5 plus 2 outfits that I would have worn had I had the chance. So let's get to it. Here are the outfits at a glance.

Let's break it down:

Day 3

I'm absolutely loving this outfit, but it's just a bit too hot to wear right now, but hey a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, outfits must be put together! I actually followed the outfit formula, unlike Day 1 and 2.  But I will definitely be pulling this one out come colder weather.

Day 4

Love this outfit too! Can we talk about these jeans? I got them during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, so they are no longer available but these* and these* are very similar. They are the most comfortable jeans! They don't pinch at the waist and are the softest jean material ever! I would wear them everyday if that was socially acceptable. I would however, order a size down. I ordered my size and a few hours later I'm finding that I'm hiking up my jeans.

I only have two blazer, one is black and the other one is bright blue, but neither one really worked with this outfit, so I decided to switch it up to my pink leather jacket that I got from Wilson's Leather at the Camarillo Outlet Mall a few years ago. If you can go to a Wilson's Leather at an outlet great deals! I think I bought this jacket for $40!

This little lady wanted to jump in the picture...okay that's a lie she was trying to photo bomb and I scooped her up and tried to get her to take a picture with me. I have a feeling this is what our family photos are going to be like in a couple of weeks, lots of bribery!

Day 5

Loving this* white button down that I bought. Seriously if you have been looking for a white button down look no further! This shirt is worth every single penny, it's a little more than I would normally spend, but it's so soft and doesn't feel still like other buttons downs. I actually want to wear this, instead of just wearing something just to wear it.

I didn't follow the outfit formula again. I don't have a gray cable knit sweater yet, not sure if I am going to get one since I would probably rarely wear it over this white shirt, too hot! But that could be the 100° weather talking, come back in a few months.

So instead of adding the sweater over it, I just added this scarf. I really love the plaid in this scarf, and for the life of me can't remember where I got it.

Day 6

I ordered some olive jeans* (super comfy and on sale for $24.99! The olive color in person is much darker than online), but they hadn't come in the mail yet, so I subbed out for my Camo Jeans. Loving this outfit and will definitely repeat as it gets colder. If you don't have a pair of wedge booties, you have to get a pair! These were from Target a while back and were really reasonable. One day I'll buy the Toms version, but for now, my knockoffs will do.

Day 7

I absolutely love this plaid dress*. When Alison told us a plaid dress would be involved I wasn't sure if I was going to get one. I know that I'm not a red plaid dress girl, but found this black and white one and it's right up my ally.

Not totally sure if I can get away with the length, definitely not with the kids around, but for sure a great night out with the girls or the hubby.

Day 8

This is when I didn't have time to take pictures with the outfits on. So I put together a picture of what I would have worn. I'm actually surprised, I'm not sure I would have paired the olive jeans with that polka dot sweat, but I think it looks great! Apparently the olive jeans like to photograph a little lighter than they are in person, or maybe I need to get my eyes checked, either way this outfit looks great!

In case you were wondering, the outfit formula called for an orange sweater, which I don't have, I've been subbing in this polka dot one and it seems to be working with all of the outfit choices so far.

Day 9

Again I didn't have time to take a photo of this outfit, but I am LOVING my new burgundy jeans (which of course they don't have in stock any more), they are super soft and I can't wait to wear them.

I did sub out the riding boots for these flats, since most likely I wouldn't have worn my riding boots with them. I'm not sure why, but in my head it just didn't make sense. The outfit calls for the grey cable sweater over it, to me that makes more sense to wear the riding boots, but with just the button down, I didn't think so.

There you have it, 7 more outfits brought to you by Alison! Which was your favorite?

The Pacifier Mystery Solved!

The days are getting shorter, I'm going to have to find somewhere in my house to start taking my pictures. Usually I take pictures after work, pretty soon it's going to be dark when I leave and when I get home, sigh.

It seems almost impossible that I haven't put this outfit together. So simple on these hot days. I went to Payless to pick up a pair of their Defelex Comfort shoes (and yes they are super mega comfortable) in nude and the sales lady said...I never would have thought to put that turquoise color with purple/blue. Well thank you!

When walking out the door for work, instead of grabbing my jean jacket, I decided to grab this blazer. Not sure if I totally like it, but I'm leaning towards the I like camp right now.

Now onto some random things.


Remember how I told you I was watching this show? Well how perfect was it that Alfonso did the "Carlton" on Dancing with the Stars this week. Made my week.

I'm so ready for cooler weather. I seriously feel like we've been in a constant Spring/Summer mode for the last two years. Last year it rained maybe 3 times and all of our flowers were blooming in March! Seriously? We've had in the 90° weather for the last week or so. We're supposed to be getting a "cold front", you know 80° weather for a few days before it goes back up. This happens every October, why am I always surprised?

I found out this week there can be too many raisins in Raisin Bran. This is the best one out there, they are small little flakes that are chewy and delicious! But every once in a while we get a box where the raisin machine must have had a freak out and dumped 2-3 boxes worth of raisins in...I love raisins, but 10 raisins on each bite is a bit much.

We've had the case of the missing pacifiers. Slowly but surely all of Mini Fox's pacifiers were disappearing. It was like the mystery of the socks in the dryer...couldn't figure out where they were going. Well turns out Little Miss, was throwing them behind her crib...we found 11 back there. LOL, sneaky girl. Mr. retrieved them on Friday and guess what? This morning she was back down to 4...silly girl. At least we don't have to keep buying new ones...just move the crib. haha.

My Virgin Lips

Sometimes I can't believe where I live. This was the view on our drive to dinner on Saturday. It was that clear and it was warm and perfect.

I think this might be my new favorite outfit, it was super comfortable, the flowy top and the skirt with pockets, need I say more?

Top - Loft, Skirt - Nordstroms (no longer available), shoes - Jessica Simpson (really old), necklace - groupdealz (I honestly have no idea who I bought it from, just that I got it from groupdealz).

How awkward is my arms just dangling there? I told Mr. to get a close up of waist up...oh well, good thing I'm not a fashion blogger

These shoes, they're Jessica Simpson and I pined for them for over a year. That's right, over a year. I saw them in the store and immediately wanted them. Eagerly tried them on and LOVED them, then I saw there as a blemish, and I didn't want my new favorite shoes to start with a blemish so I walked away. Then I couldn't find them, I looked high and low for another pair. A year later, I finally found them, and they were mine! What's not to love about polka dot shoes? Mr. really needs to step up his picture taking game, this angle is awful!

So let's talk about lipstick. I've always been a lipgloss type of gal. But I wanted to try something new, I got the NYX Matte Lisptick in Perfect Red. Let me tell you, this lipstick has some staying power. I put it on before we left the house, ate a 2 hour dinner and it was still there! Just hanging out on my lips after eating a ginormous dinner, I just had water, but no straw, and the lipstick didn't get anywhere on the rim of the glass. I would highly suggest it! So for me first time with lipstick, I think it was a huge success!
