Sharp-Dressed Man

Sean loves going to take pictures for the blog. I know it doesn't sound believable, or it sounds like some crazy woman trying to justify taking nearly daily pictures of what she wears, but he really does like it. He likes weighing in on what I'm wearing- picking shoes and accessories- and picking places and even sometimes posing with me.



Over the weekend, he felt like he was rocking a good look, and he wanted to make sure we documented it! Now this shirt is super cute, but it's also a chalkboard! You can write on it- how awesome is that? Sometimes Sean decorates the tie and sometimes he leaves it plain. It's nice to have choices!



The last time I wore this dress I paired it with a bright yellow cardigan and matching sandals. This time, since I am in love with these Payless wedges (Thanks, Erin, for the recommendation!) I matched it up with a cropped navy cardigan. Like I said it's nice to have choices!

So cute! I love your outfit, and Sean looks so happy in his tie-shirt. A friend gave me a necklace with a chalkboard pendant last week, it's so much fun!

Carrie said...

You can't go wrong with a cheery red floral + navy, and you are always rocking the most adorable, practical-yet-cute-and-affordable shoes. :)
Yay for picture parties with Sean! And I have to admit that if that chalkboard shirt came in my size, I'd wear it ... :)

I love this outfit! It's pure perfection! And what a cutie your son is :D

Thanks, Annie. He doesn't really "get" it but he knows I take pictures and write stories and it magically gets on the 'puter!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Go to Payless. Or even online. So many awesome shoes. And the chalkboard shirts come in adult sizes! I bought Curtis one for Father's Day!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Aww, thank you! He was really excited :)

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

You do. So many good deals at Payless. And thank you so much. He is quite the cutie!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you so much! It's such a cool concept for a shirt!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you, Cambria! I like that word! I look charming. It sounds so... charming :)

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thanks, Catie! He is my super sweet helper. He told me he doesn't want to grow up and get married because I like him just the size he is! Sweetheart!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Oh, well, you can have a chalkboard shirt! They make adult sizes too!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you! I can't resist a floral, chiffon dress. They are my weakness!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Every time I wear an outfit like this I think about YOU. In a totally non-creepy way of course!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

It comes in a ton of different designs, such a cute idea.

And thank you so much for the hair compliment. It only took my 20 years to figure out how to fix my hair!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Your kids would love these shirts! Built in entertainment!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

He's always picking shoes or necklaces for me. He takes it very seriously ;)

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thanks, Chris!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Yay! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so :)))

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thanks, Trice! He likes to show his "style"!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you, Megan! I am going to check out your blog right now!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you, Sarah!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Ha! I love it! Sean has finally gotten to the age where he doesn't want me to see him naked. Close your eyes!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Thank you, Katha! I am going to have to look into chalkboard accessories. As a teacher, the nerdy side of me loves the idea!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

Well, I will NEVER, EVER buy expensive shoes. I just CAN'T do it! And that chalkboard tee totally comes in adult sizes!

Catie said...

Aww, that is soo sweet! My little girl, who's 6, told me one day that she wanted to live with my forever. When I told her that someday when she's all grown up she'll want to have her own house, she started crying!! It was silly, sweet and sad all at the same time. lol Little kids are the greatest!

Ashley Vazquez said...

I have that dress too and I love it! It's the perfect "v" without showing too much and you can wear a regular bra, a must! Sean is totally adorable and that t-shirt company should be paying you commission, I have a feeling sales are going to spike.

Marie_McGrath said...

aawww, how cute that you both pose together! You both look fantastic!

I love it too - and it's so fitting for a teacher :)
She made a tutorial for the necklace, you can find it here: http://maedchenmitherz.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/countdown-to-valentines-day-chalkboard-necklace/

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

I will ALWAYS be in a regular bra, trust me! ;) No one needs to see that. I'd be happy if I got a shirt of my own from them!

Hems for Her, a.k.a. Katie said...

thank you! :)))
