Yes, it's a party, yoga pants and all!

Welcome to my Fashion Fiesta! Thanks to Big Mama for hosting such a fun-filled event. I'm glad you wanted to take a peek into my closet, my only request is that you don't judge. There are things here that could have been here for awhile.

I've got a 2 1/2 year old...Need I say more?

So, sit back, grab a beverage and some refreshements and read on to find out those fashion pieces I can't live without and those that I so wish I had. I'm going to focus your attention towards those things that I wear in the spring and summer because in the winter I hibernate and eat and gain weight and wear sweats. Don't you?

First off, what's a good closet without some great, basic t's? I love the t-shirts from Gap. Here's an example.

I have this t-shirt in teal, magenta, lime green, white and black. They work for summer or winter. In the fall and winter, I pair them under a cute hoodie or put then on top of a long-sleeve shirt. In the summer, layer them together and I've got a look. Not sure what kind-of look, but a look nonetheless. It's a basic, mom-on-the-go look that works for me.

I love to pair t-shirts with basic, denim cropped pants in the summer and jeans in the winter. And here is where my problem comes in. I would love to have these jeans or these jeans. Forget the fact that my legs or stomach or backside will never look like those models, but work with me people.

Work.with.me.

Those would be jeans that I would get if my child didn't need to eat tomorrow, or his clothes lasted for decades or if I didn't need shelter and food myself. I can dream, right?

Instead, this girl has these jeans and these jeans. Yes, I admit, they are a bit cute and I wear the heck out of them, but would you really call me a fashionista in these jeans?

I also must have some yoga pants. My latest ones that I wear often are ones that I purchased in a two pack (black and blue) at Sam's Club for a really great price...something like $12 for both pairs. Big spender, aren't I?

And my wardrobe is not complete without a pair of these or these (especially when I'm trying to look hip and dress things up a bit). You know because nothing says dressy unless it flips and flops and goes between your toes.

I dress it up from time to time with a skirt or a dress, but most of my days during the spring and summer are spent dressed in clothes that are tough and are not afraid to get dirty. Having a 2 1/2 year (a 2 1/2 year old boy, that is) really makes the wardrobe a little basic. And boring. A boring, basic wardrobe is what I have.

You've probably been bored to death, but at least you can scratch me off your list of people to call for fashion advice. I try, people, really I do...remember, DON'T JUDGE!
