school pictures
Today was school picture day at school. My girls were excited not only that they were going to be able to pose in front of a camera (they are both hams), but also that they were able to wear "free dress" (every other day, they have to wear school uniforms).
I was excited for multiple reasons: 1. I love school photos – I remember what I wore in every one of my elementary school photos (this photo is from 1st grade) – some outfits were definitely better than others; 2. the weather was a breezy 77 degrees, much better than yesterday's high of 94!; 3. due to reason #2, Charlotte was finally able to wear her new fall outfit from Crewcuts which is about the cutest thing ever. Don't you love the striped knee socks?
I used to be obsessed with fashion for myself....now I derive much more pleasure from buying clothes for my girls.
Amelia's outfit was from Crewcuts last year. I bought it on sale and now it finally fits. Pardon the shoes...we had cuter options but had to be practical as both girls had P.E. after the photos. Alas, fashion compromises!

School pictures are fun! I remember the background of all our pictures. One in particular looked like a rainbow of lasers were in the background. Remember that one???
My daughter loves to wear knee socks too.
OH. MY. GOSH! How cute are those girls! I LOVE CrewCuts and am so happy my daughter is about to fit into them! YAY! Love the knee socks too! :)
We heart knee socks as well but struggle to find them at affordable prices. Where do you shop for little girl socks?
Those outfits are adorable! My kids were really excited for picture day too- the school pictures always turn out terrible though, I feel like I should just be giving the money directly to the school instead of the photographer! But it's a tradition I suppose, you have to have the school pictures...
so cute!!! i love this season of crewcuts!
Cool pictures of you girls. You look so adorable in your outfits.
