Weekends

This past weekend we went to the Children's Hospital Holiday Parade.  This is what I wore:

With Matching Diaper Bag- A must- Ha!
This has been my weekend uniform lately: jeans, plaid shirt, vest, boots.   Easy, warm, and a step up from a long sleeved tshirt (which is what I'm wearing right now, lol). 
A couple of more pics from the parade:

Have you seen it?

This belt has it in for me.
I bought this beautiful tweed herringbone vest three years ago, when I was pregnant the first time.  Since fastening it was not an option, I guessed at the size and kept it in my closet for a future un-pregnant state.  When that time came around, I put it on, and could not understand the fit at all.  The top half fastened without a problem, but I had to tug and tug to even get the hooks on the bottom half near each other, much less fastened.  I know I'm pear shaped, but come on.
So it sat in my closet for a few years and I finally took it out this fall, determined to either alter it or donate it.  That's when I realized that there was a belt looped in the back, holding the bottom half open.  Duh.  I took it out, and the vest magically and easily fastened (in fact, it's a size too big, but hey it works).



I loved wearing it to work for the extra warmth more than the look.  But somewhere between the office and home in the evening the belt fell off ( it was loosely tied on), so now there's no belt.   All part of its master plan. If you find a brown leather belt lying around, let me know, ok?
