If I Had Time For Fall Fashion

Because I spent a mere 36 hours on the ground in Seattle, I had very little time to spend - oh the horror - shopping.  But my mother and I managed to hit three key hotspots:  Toys R Us, where I had to buy guilt gifts for all of the children (I am not sure Will cared a wit whether I came home or not; he just wanted his Power Ranger), See's Candies (whose chocolate is divine at not-yet-Godiva prices), and, of course, the Mothershop, Nordstrom.  Where:  all I bought was my favorite oscillating mascara.  Oh, and Sylvie's first walking shoes: 

I love these Tsukihoshi sneakers; Colette had a pair and wore them to death.  They are so sturdy and comfortable.

But I didn't have time to oogle baubles like these: 

Isn't that gorgeous?  For a mere $180 - you could wear this sweater-jacket from fall to spring, dress it up with slacks or a skirt; or dress it down with jeans.  Or regard-ez this funky hat-and-scarf duo: 

Well, I suppose this might be a bit too pirate-y for the carpool line - suddenly my eldest is quite sensitive to what his batshit mother is wearing or saying - but if I want to toy with him I could sport this not-too-pricey ensemble. 

Because I'm all about mortifying my kids through whacky fashion.

Haha, I love when kids get to that phase where they care what others think. It seems like it would be fun for the parents.
