Time for those dazzling Friday Fashions!

It's Fashion Friday, time to take a look back at the fashionable (cough cough) ensembles the girls put together on their own this week. I should probably mention that they're a little wild, so you might want to brace yourself or get coffee first or something (I know I did). The outfits this week kind of made me grit my teeth, to tell the truth. But I'm proud to say that this uptight mama kept her mouth shut and let them do what they wanted. How could I not, when one morning Ree ran into our room and yelled "Do we get to pick our clothes today?" and when I said "Sure" she bounced back down the hall to her room saying "Happy!" "Happy!" "Happy!" with each bounce. Little sweeties. Alrighty, let's see. Ro (on the left in both pics) has been into crazy pants this week. She has on a pair of Hanna Andersson soft knit pants in both of these pictures. She also picks her chocolate-brown "teddy bear boots" from Target pretty regularly. She loves the soft fur-lined insides. In fact, when we were riding in the car recently she looked down at her feet and said "I wish my underw**r could be furry like my boots." Ha!! Ree is going for layers upon layers of multicolored stuff lately. I think she's embracing "the more the merrier" school of style. I know I'm a control freak, but her outfit this morning was just begging for some intervention. I think it actually would have turned out ok if she had just grabbed a simple jean skirt or something. Anything but that summer butterfly skirt (which I have a feeling is going to get mysteriously lost in the laundry, shhhhh)... Ah well, other than holding the jean skirt out hopefully (and in vain) while she was rifling through the closet, I didn't do anything. Then we've got a little Mama Fashion, because, hey, I get to have a little fun in their closet sometimes too. I got these orange and chocolate-brown shirts at Gap, the skirts are hand-me-downs, and those are Ro's fave boots. Fall stuff is so cute!: Happy day before Halloween! And heaven help the teachers, because the kids are all carving pumpkins at preschool today.
