Top:  XOXO, Plato’s Closet and yes I have been stalking their store as of late….and I’m so glad I do, because suddenly I am realizing that all my favorite tops and jeans are from there!  It also seems that I tend to buy most of the owners clothes, and I think from this point on she should just call me before she puts them out….
Pants:  So old, the tag is unreadable….I have had these pants for mmmmm….close to 9 years?  Over the years they’ve fit, not even come close to fitting, and maybe a couple times (anxiety related) they’ve even been too big.  I tend to use them as a measuring stick, and as of today….they’re a bit tighter than I’d like to have them.  Time to get back on track….goodbye gluten and sugar.  Again.
Shoes:  Also a beloved and well worn pair….from Target years ago, and my go to comfort shoe.  And p.s. I will never get tired of the mary jane style.  Ever.
Bracelets:  Walmart, $3.  Dying, right?
Watch:  La Mer
Sunnies:  F21
Ring:  Tiffany

On a non related fashion note….
but on my mind:
This weekend our foster son is going to stay with friends for a couple of nights, and it will be the first time in MONTHS that we will back to what used to be our “normal” family.  I have such mixed emotions about it…as he’s blended in so easily that I have forgotten what my life used to be like.  But in the really crazy moments, sometimes I wonder if I miss that life I used to have.  Yet when I see his sweet face….his trusting brown eyes, and I hear him randomly tell me that he loves me and that he loves living in my house…I know that no matter what kind of missing my old life I may be feeling now….it may never amount to the missing I’d feel if he left us.  I always said, long before he came here, that I’d rather it be hard for me, than hard for him.  
I mean it still…..
