I don't believe in jackets

Did you know this about me?? It comes very natural to me!! I live in South Texas. There is very little need for jackets at all so I have never been one to get all crazy to buy a jacket. You can only wear a good jacket for maybe 3 days out of the year so why I am I going to waste my money on something I will use for 3 days??

In South Texas, even on cold days, a hoodie will do or a puffer vest but a real honest-to-goodness jacket??? nah!!!! I only own 2 "jackets." I put them in parentheses because they are very thin and really don't keep me warm at all. They are more for fashion (imagine that!!)

Today, this was my inspiration picture. Totally cute fur vest!!! My mom is so sweet and actually got me this exact vest and undershirt thingy for me for Christmas. But I wanted to wear it to work today and I do not like wearing see-through things (with somehting under it) to work so I had to pair the vest with something else.

This is me today with the vest and a plain black shirt underneath. I do not think I am totally looking as awesome as the above picture but.......I do have my rules about see-through at school even with something under it. Maybe this will be a weekend only outfit. Or maybe I can try something else with the vest???

Bryan thinks I am crazy and frequently violates my no jacket policy.

My children agree with me (because I am always right :-). They like their puffers and vests and hoodies.

This morning it was in the 50s and this is what we wore. Jillian in a puffer.

Hadleigh is in a cute furry vest. I always enjoy her deer-in-the-headlights looks she gives me.

And Rocco in a hoodie. I had him all set to wear a cute red puffer and he through a fit that he wanted to wear the train hoodie. (Imagine that?? Another child of mine throwing fits over their clothes.)

Happy Monday!!
