Wardrobe Woes


Yup, I'm still struggling with outfitting us for our photo appointment on Saturday. I've got Brian and Andy figured out, but I'm still stuck for me. First of all, we are all wearing jeans. This helps to keep it simple. Brian is wearing a long sleeved, collared "casual" dress shirt (untucked) that is dark blue with very fine gray stripes. My sweet boy will be wearing a long sleeved, collared white shirt (untucked) with a dark blue vest. I'm opting for gray. As in a cardigan style sweater over a white tank. Of which I have none. Which is putting me in a really gray mood. My speed demon shopping trips have proven unsuccessful, and I'm running out of time.

So, have you any ideas for me before I resort to just wearing a Hefty lawn bag?

  1. I feel your pain. A nice tailored collared white shirt (which is emminently reusable) and a nice grey scarf.

  2. Walmart and Target both have tanks and cardigans out right now. As does old navy. Do you have a dress shirt with a collar you could wear like them?

  3. The layered look so you can have add/subtract for different pictures? Cardigan, tank and a scarf. You will look great no matter what!

  4. Expensive but try White House Black Market... they have nice classy stuff and you can always find nice sweaters. For a less expensive option, try Ross Dress For Less. Huge array of clothing but sometimes don't have items in all sizes-annoying. You will probably find something there though. That's where I got my photo outfit for about $10.

    Also, e-mail personal friends who may have a gray sweater in your size. You can be "something borrowed" and the boys "something blue."

  5. We just had family pictures done and I feel your pain in a major way. We did finally find some cute matching dresses for the twins and then for my son we did a cute red collar shirt and then my husband and I wore black collared shirts. It was fun!!!
