What I wore today: 12/18/2011 (moving house)

Moving day outfit: gap jeans, leather boots, vintage blazer, vintage silk and lace camisole, vintage Chanel bag, New York and co. ruffled cardigan

As half my wardrobe is still across town, and the majority of my shoes are in boxes, my outfits haven't been the greatest as of late. (But, we're almost moved in so -- along with holiday preparations and balancing work -- it's been a productive week!)

However, yesterday we took a short break from move-in madness to attend a family gathering for this little guy's second birthday as well as his dad's more than second.

I mean, when someone invites you to be anywhere near that adorable face (not to mention Veggie Tales cake), you don't turn them down.

So, to make myself presentable for Ryan's family (and a cheeky outfit shoot just before), I decided to layer, layer, layer and see how it went. It ended up being a pretty cute outfit don't you think? Neutral layers are such a good emergency standby; I don't know what I'd do without them.

Before we saw family, though, we took a moment to have Sunday brunch (walking distance now!) just the two of us, which was very restorative . . . not to mention delicious.
