So! Today's outfit is purely for comfort and a house cleanin', laundry doing, resume updating, tea sippin', horror movie watchin', pumpkin' carvin' day. It's raining outside as well, so there's that.
*Here you can see the little tears in the upholstery on Bets (short for Betty, yes, I'm a Mad Men fiend, a FIEND I SAY!). We found her by the dump and just couldn't let her sit there so we adopted her and one day, new upholstery will be in the works.
Sweater- Vintage Dior, stolen from my dad's closet in high school. He actually bought it for my mom and she wore it a lot when she was pregnant with me. This is one of my most beloved pieces of clothing and it's cashmere so it's like being wrapped up in unicorn wishes and kissed by the backs of baby rabbit ears.
Shorts- Buffalo Exchange
Mukluks- Urban Outfitters
Limp hair, tired eyes(I was tossing and turning ALL night), oil production out the yang and STILL stuck on lipstick (that stuff really does outlast)- Three pinot grigios, two glasses of champagne and three gimlets. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Jack wears- Huggies (he had just woken up).
Here's some pics of the aforementioned pumpkin picking spree. Our stupid camera lens was dirty and I couldn't tell from all the sun. So pardon the crappy quality.
If today's outfit were a song (sorry about the stupid 3 sec. sound clip the precedes the song, I didn't realize it was there until I posted it.)-

Those boots.... those boots....THOSE BOOTS. I want them on my feet.
I am feeling a lot like you are today- only I am hung over from my punk baby and not tasty Champagne. Boo.
I love the shorts with boots. Fantastic and I love the story behind the sweater.
i love your pumpkin pickin' outfit!! You look like a celeb. Im so glad youre joining in again!! :)
I am drooling over your boots. I am checking for those myself since two years but they are ridiculously expensive in Germany. I bet once they are out of fashion I can get a cheap deal.
I love the pumpkin shots of your little one, looks like so much fun.
Thanks ladies, I'm definitely glad to be participating again. Only I'm hoping my next entries will have a bit more luster to them.
Oh! and @plantmyappletree- I got these for $20 at Urban Outfitters. I realized a few years ago to shop for things after the season (which is when I got these). So check for things a month or two after they come out, it's very likely they'll be discounted.
I love love the outfit! A perfect balance of completely hip yet still comfy! And I've been hearing great things about some burlesque shows around here - hope to make a girls night out of it soon!
That sweater did remind me of unicorns. :) I love the cut and color, and how fun that there's family history to it as well.
You look totally comfy (never, ever a bad thing) and your boots make me want to slouch around the house allllll day.
Aw, I lovelovelove the story behind that sweater. Absolutely adorable.
And those boots -- my goodness they look delicious!!
PS - Thanks for the oh-so-sweet comment on my 'fit today :] You made my day!
OH, and PPS:
The picture on your blog's header is friggen hilariously AMAZING. Classic.
Those mukluks are killer.
Aaaaand I love that word.
"mukluk."
Leaving the House in THIS?!?!
okay, um... why do you look freakin' fabulous as you clean your house?
Um, I don't know what you're talking about because you basically look amazing in both outfits. If THAT'S your bad day, I can't wait to see the rest of the week!
Oh how fun would it be to see that Burlesque's Halloween show! How fun!
You could wear a paper sack and still look hot!
Love the bootie-shoe-boot-socks.
and as always, your little man is adorable!
I love the boots and shorts look. You pulled it off amazingly!
