Bold florals + Bold stripes (plus some little sister fashion)










Last night/early this morning my little brother left home for the next two years to serve a mission for our church.  We thought he wasn't going for another two weeks, so it was a really crazy few days for my mom getting him ready to go.  We all got together as a family last night.  It was sad to say goodbye, but we are all very excited for him.  As I'm typing this, he is probably almost to Mexico City.

I wanted to share some pics of what I wore last night and also what my 9 year old sister wore.  She was wearing the cutest outfit and it was so well coordinated.  I'm sharing pics below.  She also took the first few pictures of my outfit.  :)

This skirt is actually from my friend's wedding.  Isn't it cute!  I thought the bold stripes in my shirt needed a bolder floral pattern and I love how it looked with this bright, bold skirt.  My other sister got me this beautiful blazer for Christmas.  It has a stripe print with a chunky white lace overlay.





See how cute!?  She's got this beautiful white tee with clear, iridescent sequin sleeves and a pocket, a super cute polka dot layered skirt, white leggings with lace on the bottom, and then sparkly shoes that match the shirt.  She put this together by herself!

Thanks so much for reading!!

  2. I love the floral skirt! What a great skirt to wear at a wedding. And so PERFECT with the stripes! Congrats on your brother serving a mission in Mexico City. I have heard a lot of very good stories from missionaries who served there. Hang in there! He is where he is supposed to be!!! :)

    1. Thanks so much for your comment! He is actually going to be serving in Anaheim. They are sending him to the Mexico City MTC instead of Provo. Crazy, huh!?
