I hope to stay off the "don't" list

Lately I've been lovin' Mrs. Fussypants's Fight the Frump posts. I've shared before my issues with fashion.

Let's review some of the basic style rules I've learned over the years. Shall we?

1) Always wear a shirt.

2) Always wear pants.

3) Don't run around in your training pants with your Daddy's shoes on and who-knows-what on your head. Not stylish.


4) If your Aunt asks you to be in her wedding, tell her only ruffles on the hem of dresses is cool.

The style rules I've learned have gotten more sophisticated over the years.

Not to shabby for a workin' Mom, hey?



Did you write a Flashback post this week? Link up! Any kind'll do. Come back and play again next week - no theme! Review rules & get graphics here.

I'm digging the ruffles on the dress. Reminds me of that shirt from Seinfeld.

Love the bling! Those fly aways can be tricky. The bra strap thing always puzzled me, why show those???

You do match your curtains. Fantastic.

BTW-very adorable pictures and I agree your aunt did you wrong with all those ruffles! LOL

but for around the house on a hot day pants are optional, right? Only underwear is necessary? (This is a real issue of mine.)

Jennifer said...

all the pictures we're just as sweet as can be.

and yes i totally agree, that was way toooo many ruffles!

So, bascially you're saying you're the same child you've always been - just more cloths? That's a good thing.

that is too good. I should gather some funny kid shots while I am here at my mom's. My kids have been going through the old pictures so there should be plenty of them there. Great inspiration. Thanks.

Breanne said...

I just found your blog and this is great idea. Are they supposed to be funny? I didn't do a funny just somehting I learned. Yours is too funny.

I really must do this - but first I have to scan in all my old photos.

You and I must be around the same age as I'm sure my photos look just like yours - although I only have one naked - the 'bath' shot!

You do this so well.
