A couple of weeks ago, I had my sister and niece over to bake some cookies.
I mean, it was fun and all, but don’t let these pictures fool you. This was the calm before the storm.
Approximately one hour after they left I got the worst stomach bug of my entire life.
And what’s worse, I ended up giving it to both of them as well (thankfully Kit didn’t get sick).
But, oh man, was it bad!
I am now completely initiated into the moms don’t get a sick day club.
Awesome.
When I originally had my sister take these pictures my intention was to point out how versatile a sweater like this is.
So:
It can go from cozy lounge sweater, to pulled together outfit in a matter of seconds.
I tried really hard to only include pieces in this capsule that were versatile like this. I feel like my fall and summer capsules were a little bit lacking in that area.
Although to be perfectly honest… this sweater did not cut it when it came to lounging while sick. I changed into my husbands college sweatshirt in about .05 seconds after the first wave hit. Sorry babe!
P.S. my sister wrote a post about not getting a sick day as well. You can find it here.
