OK. So this is the outfit I wore to Thanksgiving dinner. I didn’t get any good shots because I was the one behind the camera. So I put it back on the other day and HAD to share it with you. For this reason and this reason only: When I walked out from getting dressed, Thanksgiving day, my brother asked me why I was dressed like a grandma. WHAT! I totally thought I looked cute… but he kept saying that I looked like a grandma.

A few days later, after  I put the kids to bed, we went out for a few drinks. He turned 21 over the summer, and I had yet to buy him his first legal drink. When I went to go get dressed, he looked at me and said “Sis, wear something cute, don’t come out looking like a grandma again. Your 26, no 86” HAH! (Isn’t he so charming?!)

What do you think. Do you think I look like I’m dressed as a grandmother?

  3. I think your brother missed the memo that ruffled tops are not just for grandmas anymore! You looks beautiful and your outfit is young & hip!! Boys just don't understand!! :)

  6. I think you look really cute. My grandma definitely would not wear colored tights or ankle boots. I love vintage things with a little modern twist.

  8. The tights def kept it young and fun. Finding a boy that appreciates fashion is tough, they are such suckers for the simple stuff!

  9. Well, I love this so much that I had to pin it! The combination of ruffles and polka dots and color is just perfect. But then again, I am 34, so your brother might think I actually AM a grandma. ;)

  10. My grandmother would not wear this outfit! I think your brother has no sense of style (at least when it comes to women's fashion). I really like this outfit, especially the shocking blue tights!
