Outfit Post: Upstaged

I have to say that sometimes when I look at my outfit photos, I don't want to post them.  I know that's my choice, and I could simply not blog them (like my friend Allie of Wardrobe Oxygen chose yesterday!)...except we aren't a blog that posts outfit posts everyday. And since I did the work for a new post, I figured I would need to brave it.

It was hot and I needed to change quickly to go to dinner and run errands, so this is what I put on.  We went to a pizza/pasta/salad place (I had a big salad and pasta with garlic/olive oil/parsely/hot pepper flakes) that gives the kids balloons...which just happens to be one of Aurora's favorite things EVER! She was in heaven...and we ate in relative peace!

Dress-vintage, Belt-vintage, Shoes-MIA


The outtakes of this outfit are way better than the originals! Aurora was obsessed with that purple 'boon'.

Sadly, Aurora let go of the balloon (we had it looped around her wrist, but it came unlooped) and it floated up into the sky.  So Aurora learned her first lesson about loss.  A jelly bean made it all better.

You can see more of Aurora over on the Miskabelly blog as well as little Lyla!  Even if you're not a mom or mom-to-be, there's a lot to read and see.

That's all for now...

xo,
Amanda
