My little guy starts early childhood Monday! I can not even believe he's going to school 5 days a week, but it is time. On this day we went to meet the teacher, pay, and see what we needed to bring for his first day. Since I knew we would be hitting Jewel up right after I wanted to be able to do a lot of walking around. These are just like wearing gym shoes as far as I'm concerned! I seriously could do all day 5 days a week in these bad boys! ;)
Can we talk about these pants now? These were another hand-me-down from Katrina before she left and I seriously love them! They are a size too big, but when you cuff them they look more like a boyfriend pant and I really love the relaxed fit! Great addition to my year round wardrobe, no?!
What do you guys think on the color combo? I was wondering if the peachy blazer was too "spring" with the army green pant. Hopefully I pulled off the transitioning to fall look without looking too much like an Easter egg! lol

Sniff. Sniff. I thought it was going to be tough to send Moose to EC Sped at CPS, but so far so good. Hope you like it. We love our program so far. 5 days is a lot, but it's so nice to have one kid for a few hour stretch.

Love the outfit!

Cute outfit. I love your blog and that you prove being a mom doesn't mean you have to stop being fashionable!

Your jacket looks almost identical to the F21 one I bought recently.
I love it paired with green cargo style pants. And those wedges do look very comfy.
Hope your little guys does great at school. I am sure it will be harder on you than him in the beginning. I am leaving tomorrow for a week long consulting gig and freaking out about leaving my kids!

As your child's teacher, I thought it inappropriate that you made me take these photos outside the school. I get paid to teach spelling and reading and stuff. Next time, at least slip me a $20.

(For an extra $20, I'll make he gets the seat next to the coolest kids. It's important.)

great blazer!!

Thanks everyone! and very funny Delfin, I took these with my tripod! But maybe I should have asked his teacher, I could have gotten good action shots! ;)

In my opinion green cargo pants are a neutral and you can pair them with avsolutely everything except a camo shirt : ) I also have those Rachael earrings. I love Jewelmint buy my credit card whishes I would cancel my membership.
