Monday's Inspiration: Alexa Chung |
BLUE NECKLACE - Jaclyn1423 |
"Mommy, I know everything." That's what Princess Sparkles told me on the way back from the Aquarium today. She caught me a little off guard with her confidence. She told me she knew people, places, etc. I asked her if she knew math and she said yes. I asked her what "1 + 1" was and she actually got it right. Not bad. But then I asked her another math question and she didn't know it. Even still, she's convinced she knows it all!
Today's "Inspiration Monday" from the ladies at Two Birds is Alexa Chung. I find Alexa's style so charming. She looks lovely in her vintage outfits but equally fabulous in casual clothes, like in today's inspiration picture!

I decided to go with a floral romper (AKA adult onesie), a military jacket and my coral TOMS. This was the perfect outfit to take the girls to the aquarium in, since my TOMS are so very comfortable. Also, because the romper is strapless, it's quite easy to do the quick pull down when using the restroom. My jacket also made the perfect "picnic blanket" since Princess Sparkles didn't want to sit on the grass during our lunch fearing there could be bugs that might bite her.
Thank goodness for inspiration outfits. They definitely make dressing a lot easier and a lot of fun. Now what to wear tomorrow? Good thing I have my own know-it-all in the house. Maybe she can give me some sagely advice on an outfit!

I love checking out all the lovely blogs that dish out fashion inspiration! Some mornings I can't even get dressed without it! And Alexa Chung is the best!
The romper with the jacket look perfect together! The TOMS were a perfect finishing touch :)
So jealous you got to go to the aquarium! Looks like so much fun :)
I'm loving the army jacket and romper (adult onesie)! I really need a pair of TOMS I hear so many good things about the shoes and company.
Alexa Chung has the coolest style, she was such a GREAT choice!
I'm pretty positive that since she knows everything, she'd be able to tell you what to wear tomorrow. :)
You look adorable in that romper and I love the Toms! I'm dying to get some of their wedges.
I love your floral romper! so cute, and it pairs so nicely with the military jacket!
Chic on the Cheap
The olive jacket looks great with the bright dress.
I keep seeing Alexa everywhere now
she looks good but you match her!

Such a great combination! I love the floral pattern/military style pairing.
I had an outfit all planned out for this inspiration photo (which, by the way, made me want to add that color of yellow to my wardrobe in the worst way!), but it didn't quite pan out the way I thought it would. And then B woke up before I could come up with something else, so I skipped the pictures today. Rotten kid :)
I love how versatile the jacket is! It looks great paired with the floral print :)
I adore your jacket! I wore TOMS for the inspiration look, too. But don't look because you blew mine out of the water.
Great outfit and I love your coral TOMS. You've inspired me to do my own version of this outfit tomorrow. A high 5 to you :)

That romper looks great on you and I love the blue necklace paired with it. Really brings out the blue in the outfit!

What a cutie...hopefully she keeps that confidence. I love your "adult onesie"...your outfit is a perfect mix of cute and casual.
love me some toms!
I think you look fantastic in that romper and love the military jacket you paired with it! Great take on the inspiration from Alexa Chung!
This 'lookalike' post has got me thinking about my olive drab jacket in a new way...
And ya gotta love the confidence of kids.
this is an outfit you MUST wear again, it's SO cute!!! rompers may be a grown up version of kids wear but that structured jacket calms it down
i LOVE this! the colors look great on you as well
don't tell Alexa but I think her outfit fades in comparison to yours. haha.. You look so summery chic! I like the military jacket with the floral dress, it's fun and refreshing. You look great as always!

Loving the floral, but the necklace is beautiful!
i love those coral toms! they go well with the outfit! Sparkles is so funny!
It's a great onesie! I love the bright summery pattern.
I love that she's so confident. Once that feeling of knowing everything passes it never comes back again for the rest of your life--I hope she feels like that for a long time!!! Love your outfit too!

I find it easier to come up with an outfit if I have a brief to fill. Love your jacket, practical yet super stylish.
I absolutely love your take on this look--that floral romper is adorable! I admit, I'm still a little afraid to wear one, but you pull it off so well! I might have to give one a try...
sparkles is too sweet!!! at that age, all of them say that lol, i work with young kids and they tell me all kind of things just because they "are intelligent and know everything!"
love your outfit especially the shoes!

I ADORE that floral romper!! And the military jacket is a perfect match!

Uhoh, it's not good that she already thinks she knows everything! You're gonna have it rough when she's a teenager. ;)
That military jacket was perfect!! I love it with the flowery romper!

Great outfit! I love the floral romper / military jacket pair...I have similar pieces and wear them together as well. I just think it's a great combination of structure + flirty.
