What to wear ~ my family!

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010

A few weeks ago, we had family portraits taken by the wonderfully talented Becca Wersland. Suddenly, I was faced with what would WE wear? Here is one of the beautiful images Becca took (used with permission).

We all started with Lukie’s sweater, which is shades of grey and blue. Ben picked out an awesome sweater, so I added a blue shirt underneath to give it some pop. It is hard to tell, but Sammy is wearing a blue sweater, with a black vest over the top. Jason and I both chose to wear black (to hide our baby weight ;0), but I brought in more blue with a flower headband and some blue leopard flats.

Thanks again for putting up with us Becca!
(Our clothes were a combination of things we owned, and some purchased from Children’s Place, Crazy 8, Old Navy, and Target)

It’s that time again.

Here’s the normal spiel:
Here are some more ideas for how to pull together outfits for your family. This is just a jumping off point for some ideas. All fashions in the following images are from oldnavy.com and gap.com.

And on to the styles…
Stay cool in the cold
As the temperatures continue to drop (not this week!), you may wonder how you can have outdoor portraits without dragging along your heaviest coat. The answer is…say it with me…layers. When it is chilly, add a scarf and hat to increase the style quotient.
