Yay you guys! The winner of the trashiest of all Halloween costume was actually a tie and somehow that warms my heart! As it turns out, Sexy Ronald McDonald AND Sexy Rosie the Riveter are equally as offensive, so Lauren and Anna, email me at nomoremomjeans (at) gmail to claim your prizes!
My Halloween was awesome, but only because this is what my daughter decided to be:
(Maximize the screen for maximum awesomeness.) She's 9, people. And her life dream is to become a paleontologist and when she this costume, it was over. I was forced to shell out $50 and constantly inflate her all day long to get this to work.
Not gonna lie, that Halloween felt like it lasted longer than Christmas and I'm glad October is over.
Also, because I'm into multitasking, here are outfit details for the month of October. MAN AM I EFFICIENT.
I went shopping with friends and all four of us bought this sweatshirt moto jacket. It was honestly like $17 and it's fantastic for when you want to look a little put-together but also not super fancy. Also, it's SWEATSHIRT material.
Jacket: CP Lounge via TJ Maxx (

Jeans: Calvin Klein (

Okay, sometimes I don't do my hair. So sue me. A big, fat bun and a hairband is my go-to when I don't feel like doing anything, ever. This outfit was for a Wednesday, when I had to be to a couple of meetings and also at my kids' school. It was a pretty solid balance. I bought the shirt and vest at the same time but didn't plan on wearing them together until I noticed how much I loved the plaid on plaid thing, therefore encouraging all Canadian lumberjack stereotypes.
Short: Gap (

Vest: Okay, it's from Gap too (

Jeans: Calvin Klein (

I had planned to wear a completely different outfit this day but it didn't work. And when outfits don't work, you throw on a dress and jacket and call it good. Also, I wanted these shoes foreeeeeeeeever and finally got them and now I can't stop wearing them!
Shoes: Calvin Klein (
here, mine are a dark burgundy and they will look sooo good with jeans.)
I'm not normally very matchy matchy, but I couldn't resist when I realized that I had a top and a pair of shoes in the same super-bright orangey-red. Ehhh one time won't hurt anything. Let's just not make it a habit.
Shirt: Calvin Klein (
here) I officially own one million of these shirts.
Shoes: Charlotte Russe (

I believe this day was errand-ing and it was probably the most glorious fall day of all time. Naturally, I wanted to drive around with the sunroof down so I had to wear a hat. Also because my hair was messy but we don't need to talk about that shhhh.
Pants: Calvin Klein (do I own anything else anymore??) I bought these last year but they're back at CK outlets)
Off I go to face November. I will not think about Christmas. I will not think about Christmas.
