Steph and I have been emailing back and forth with all sorts of questions about what to wear and who may be joining us for our Mom Blogger Mixer at Disney next month!!
It’s a three-day trip, so at one point she made a comment something to the effect of: "I guess we really only need three outfits, right?"
Allow me to pause so you can digest that.
Three outfits for three days? Now that’s impressive. But I’m afraid I can accomplish no such daring feat. I’ve got to have OPTIONS, people!
If you’ve hung around here for very long, you won’t be surprised to hear that my summer wardrobe basically consists of denim capris and fitted t-shirts. So I’m pretty sure I’m going to want something with a little more pizazz for my first ever blogger mixer! When the Boden catalog came in the mail yesterday, I knew I’d found my Spring 2008 wardrobe.
Here’s a few things on my wish list:
This adorable skirt. Wouldn’t it be perfect with a coral colored tank or t-shirt?
Or this one.
And what about this top with a pair of khaki or brown walking shorts?
Or this one?
Also. This tank — gotta have it. Modest yet attractive tanks are hard to come by.
Yes, I am aware of the coral theme. I *heart* coral. Especially in the spring.
Of course, then there are shoes and handbags to consider. Oh the pain, the drudgery. This is hard work, y’all. I might need some sustenance in the form of chocolate to power me through.
Oh yeah, today we’re talking about blush at Chic Critique. Come on over and tell us your favorite product. And tomorrow I will announce our newest additions to the Chic Critique team!
The shoes have me stumped too, Steph. I’ll have to think on that. Sneakers really are the most practical option, but I don’t care for the ones the model is wearing in the picture.
Jennifer! How exciting! I’ve been dying to know who else is going.
Don’t let all my yammering about clothes intimidate you. I’m a jeans and t-shirt kind of gal at heart. 🙂
I find your blog through OhioSarah. I love the colors you picked out. Enjoy your trip.
Blessings,
Jen
I’ve seen you around the blogosphere, of course, and I think specifically at 5M4M (I’m the Jennifer who writes there). . . guess what–I think I’m going to Disney too!
Of course now I’m kind of intimidated, because I’m no fashion plate. . . . I’m sure I can pull together 3 cute outfits in a month. Only one month to pure pampering and Disney fun!!
Adorable!!! When I get my online order in and decide what I want to take, I’ll post my outfit options, too! I of course included a cute skirt and tee, too! But the shoes…. what shoes?????? What is comfy but oh so stylish?
Steph
i like the first skirt and the first top — you look so pretty in coral!
Very cute clothes. I’m a wee bit jealous of you, getting to go to Disney. Oh well, I’ll keep reminding myself of the bliss I’m experiencing with a new baby. It is bliss, right? 😉
Oh yes, coral and I are great friends.
My Boden catalog just came in the mail today. I was so looking forward to it after reading your blog this morning. Must be a wee bit of good luck for me! Good luck with 3 outfits in 3 days. I couldn’t do it.
Those are really cute. I triple puffy heart coral, too!
Great choices from Boden – 3 outfits….3 days….I don’t think so.
By the way, what you appear to call tanks we call vest tops. And what we call tanks….
well….tanks (those big things that the army own that must be a nightmare to park!)
Just a liitle bit of Irish culture for you in honor of St Patrick 🙂
i LOVE that 2nd skirt!! 🙂
I really, really, really love that brown, leaf-print skirt…until I saw the $98 price tag!
I love that first skirt. I just may need to buy me one! You definitely need a new outfit, or two, or three for your fun Disney vacation. I say go for it!
That first skirt is cute, but not with those tennis shoes. It just doesn’t look quite right together. What’s your thought on that combo?
Steph, I totally agree. I’m not a fan of those sneakers at all. And especially not with that skirt. But what should I wear with it? (I ordered it.) I really don’t know. I need to be comfortable. I have brown ballet flats and I’m thinking they might be the ticket.
Ok, you and Steph have me totally pumped up for this Disney trip now. I’m formerly introducing myself to you here. Hi, I’m Amy and I’m going to DISNEY too! 🙂 I’m about to get all over my attire options for the trip…keep checking back. 🙂
Hi– I wanted to let you know that I am also going to the Disney Blogger trip! Please include me in the emails as they fly back and forth! Would love to somehow connect all of us beforehand. Wonder how we could do that?
Shari Braendel alerted me that you were going so I hopped on over here to find out about it! I have been wondering who all is going. Thanks for posting about this!
