Real-Life Mom Outfit of the Day Roundup- October

Real-Life Mom Outfit of the Day Roundup- October

I can’t believe that another month has past and it’s time to do another real-mom outfit of the day roundup.  I honestly never know what to call these posts.  I use to call them “What I Wore” posts, then I would say monthly posts.  Lately, I have just been referring to them as real-life mom outfit-of-the-day roundups because that’s what they are.  They are the real everyday outfits that I wear.  I love putting together outfits, but when it comes to actually getting a chance to wear every outfit that I style for the blog it’s hard.  I just don’t have that many exciting places to wear them to.  That’s why I challenge myself every day to put on something that I feel good in.

How to Style Staight-leg Jeans in 2021

October 27, 2021 by Katie Haller

 Straight-leg jeans seem to be a hot topic at the moment.  Ever since this idea that you are old if you still wear skinny jeans came about, everyone either seems to be running out and getting straight-leg jeans or holding their ground strong and refusing to wear them.  Now I am not saying that I will be getting rid of my skinny jeans any time soon.  I still prefer them over straight-leg jeans, but I do like to have a variety of jeans in my wardrobe.  This helps my outfits stay fresh.

 9 Fall Outfit Ideas With a Plaid Shirt

October is the best month of the fall season in my opinion!  Football, Cider Mills, Pumpkin carving, Halloween!  It’s always a fun month.  I feel like there is no better wardrobe staple to have in October than a plaid shirt.  It’s even better if you can find a plaid shirt that goes with everything in your wardrobe!

Mini Fall Weekend Wardrobe Capsule- 10 Pieces, 10 Outfits
I wanted to do a wardrobe capsule this fall, but the time just slipped away from me.  That’s why instead of doing a full fall wardrobe capsule, I decided to break it down and just focus on a casual weekend wardrobe full of some of my favorite staples that are in my closet this fall.  Hopefully, it will give you a few outfit ideas and you may even find a few new wardrobe pieces to add to your closet this fall.

How to Style Black Jeans

November 10, 2020 by Katie Haller

How to style black jeans #blackjeans
I’ve always loved having a good pair of black jeans to have in my closet.  They are so easy to dress up, yet they are still casual because they are denim, not dress pant material.  They are an important fall and winter wardrobe staple for me.
