Tried and True

March 3, 2017

Sometimes I feel like I need new pieces in order to keep things interesting around here. I have to remind myself the best outfits aren’t complicated, and they often seem to be the ones you all like best anyway. With nothingΒ new to build an outfit around, I did what I often do and went for my tried and true favorites in an easy neutral combo.

These black distressed skinnies have been around for a while (first seen here almost two years ago, yikes). My white cami is a layering staple that is still available (seen here and here). This duster cardi was first seen hereΒ over two years ago in a pretty identical outfit to what I am wearing today. My boots were a favorite from last season seen here. This belt has been a fun piece to add to both dresses and pants (last seen here and still available). Though my exact jeans, cardi, and boots are long gone, they are such staple pieces I was able to find very similar options I am linking below.

Russ and I are fortunate to have a friend group in a similar life stage as us, i.e. babies and toddlers. Saturday night several of us grabbed take out and met up at a friend’s house. We literally packed a cooler with a couple beers and a bottle, ha! Keeping it classy (and safe, I promise). My how things have changed. Diapers were changed and no one was embarrassed when their baby cried or spit up because five minutes later it was someone else’s turn. It was fun and refreshing. Why am I telling you this? I wore this outfit, so somehow in my head it all relates. Grin. Hope you all have the best weekend.

    The simplest and easiest outfits are often the best as they are the ones we have the most fun in, we’re never worrying about what we’re wearing or how things are sitting! πŸ™‚ Plus mum style requires simplicity as you have so little time to get dressed each day….ha!

    Glad you had a fun night. It sounds like a lovely lifegroup. I don’t have an in person lifegroup, but do go to a few mum groups and playdates and playgroups and it’s a very similar environment πŸ™‚

    Hope you are having a great start to the week πŸ™‚

    Tried and true outfits are the perfect go-to looks… simple, stylish, and you know you’ll feel good in it! I love this one you’re wearing here. It really is refreshing to be with people in the same seasons of life, too. They get it, you get it, and it’s a nice reminder that they’re dealing with the same things you are. Oh, and do you prefer going by “Amy” or “Amy Ann”? I realized I’ve been commenting “Amy” but your post signature says Amy Ann and I was like CRAP I’ve been shortening her name this whole time, LOL.

    A simple classic white tee and a great fitted pair of black jeans are my basics as well. But that statement belt certainly does upnotch this simple look. Love it!
