27/30 - 30 x 30 Challenge - Fall Capsule Wardrobe

I feel like I am counting down the minutes until today at 5pm.  Bring on the Turkey and all the trimmings.  I am still feeling a little frazzled from traveling last week and then working the single parent thing while my hubby was out of town. I am so glad that he is home and I get to make a beautiful Thanksgiving meal for some great family and friends in a few days. Oh... best part - I don't have to work for multiple days in a row.

Sorry guys!  This are scheduled post for this next week as I will be traveling for business.  I am going to post my 30x30 outfit selections, and then when I get home I will create a Suitcase Confessions - Houston Meeting post that actually details what I took for my trip.  My boss told me to "over pack" so I am doing just that.  Hope everyone has a great week!

Happy Halloween! West Fest & Trunk-Or-Treat

Happy Halloween!  Thank you so much for supporting my efforts.  I have had over 1,000+ pins on Pinterest and over 1,200 visits to my Simple Halloween blog pages Part 1 and Part 2!  WOW - and that is all in the course of week. If you still need Hallween ideas for tonight check out my Simple Halloween blog pages Part 1 and Part 2.  

This is basically the same outfits as a a few weeks ago with a different accessories and a different cardigan. I might just keep the spots theme going for the remainder of this week.  Ha - we shall see. View the Taupe Versatility post here. 

We had a blast at West Fest (a children's event at my Church last Sunday) and we followed it up with Trunk-Or-Treat.  Here are few pictures of all my family and my daughters friend.  

Little Bit - Oscar the Grouch.  I actually bought this outfit for a teenage on amazon for $11 bucks and cut the entire thing down to fit my 22 month old. If you are wondering, YES her hair is sprayed green and even three days later there is still a little green floating around in there. 

Boo Bear - Frankie Stein from Monster High.  Boo came to me this year and stated that she did NOT want to be anything cutesie for Halloween.  She wanted to be a vampire or a dead bride.  We found a little compromise with this outfit. 

My Hubby is very creative and he NEVER buys a costume for Halloween.  He always seem to come-up with something new and creative year after year.  This year he went as"Mucho Dinero" those are pictures of Robert Dinero taped to his shirt. I was a night owl - easy and simple. Here is a little collage of pictures of a few of the past years for Halloween and yes that is me as the Geisha Girl many, many years ago. Copperhead Road, Dora, Geisha Girl, Jeff Fisher, Middle Aged Super Hero, and Pappa Smurf. Hope you have a happy and safe Halloween.  Trick or Treat!

Taupe Versatility

I know it has only been three weeks since I started my blog, but I can honestly say that I have never worn this many different items from my closet in a three week period. I am guilty of going to the same outfits over and over again. I use very little imagination and don't rethink much about my accessories, but remixing my closet is the point of this blog.  This is a blouse that I bought on clearance at Target.  I was not into the high low tops and wasn't sure that I would ever really wear it, but versatility is the name of the game. This is my third post using this same taupe top and I have worn it for work, night out, and casual look.  Check out the Remix It! page at the top to see other examples of Remix It! One Piece, Three Ways.

Try as hard as we may for perfection, the net result of our labors is an amazing variety of imperfectness. We are surprised at our own versatility in being able to fail in so many different ways.~ Samuel McChord Crothers
