Fashion Tuesd... Er, Fashion Thursday

Missed Fashion Tuesday completely due to hum drum wardrobe choices. Today, however, when I picked the girls up from school, this is what I was greeted by:



Loodle, on the right, has chosen an... interesting color palette. Red and pink, red and green, green and pink. Any of those combos I could deal with, but all three colors together, paired with lime green socks and black patent leathers (that she was wearing before kicking them off in the formal living room) are just too much for me.

Boodle, on the other hand, looks so cute. This is her new, first day of school outfit. Note that today is Thursday. She also wore this outfit on Monday. She has worn the same outfit twice in the same week. I have much to teach this girl before she is annihilated in Junior High.

I also have to note that I've done no laundry since the weekend. So that means she dug this outfit out of the dirty clothes bin. Her explanation? "I was going to get dirty anyway." Thank God. I don't have to do laundry ever again.

Last point. How could I let them go out dressed this way, mismatched and dirty? I couldn't. But The Man could, and he did, as he was the one to get them ready this morning. Am I complaining? Hell no, since I got to sleep in until 8:30am. Can I get a HALLELUJAH!??!!!?!!

7 of you HAD to say...:

2 weeks ago girl #1 came down in pink plaid shorts and a red and white striped hoodie. On a hot day. I looked at her and said "that does not go together." thinking I was going to have to figure out how to fix the stiuation. Then, I thought "why?" She was obviously happy. And so, I stumbled all over myself and said "for a grownup, we cannot not wear a hoodie with shorts in the summer but you can." and she looked so pleased. So I have SEVERAL pictures of us out and about on a "field trip" with her in that outfit. It's atrocious. But she was adorable and PROUD!

ROFL Your kids are hilarious. This is the best, because they are both together.

My younger son, Remy, would wear the same clothes every day for a week or two if he could. I'm serious. He did it this summer...I was curious how long he could go and he did for over a week...

I have to make him change. Every day. He sleeps in his clothes too. Weird child. He used to have to wear things backwards. Seriously. HAD to. That went on forever, I thought it would never end.

He's my wild one.

Good for them for picking out some rockin' outfits. And I appreciate where your oldest is coming from. If I think like that, I'm never doing laundry again.

Except for my sheets.

I may be crazy . . . but I kind of like the red/pink/greeen thing.

Well, think of their fashion choice this way - together they go with EVERYTHING. All the color groups are represented. [I wanted to quote Breakfast Club there, but I don't want to alienate your huge fanbase, ATBD.]
Now that I think about it, Boodle only wore the same outfit twice in one week. Like rhea's son, my boy also wore the same outfit several times in the same week. It was his black power ranger outfit. I think costumes fall under the "it is play clothes, so it doesn't matter that they are wearing the same stuff over and over again without it being washed", but I actually had to throw away a princess dress because the smell was... *gagging*

Ok, it's been a week since you updated. Where are you?!

BTW, love the new profile picture! I don't know if I'm just noticing it and you've had it for a long time or it's new...but either way, I love it!
