OOTD Spiffykerms Style

@spiffykerms My Dad passed 8 years ago and I always love wearing one of his sweaters when it’s cool enough. Sweater: From Daddio Pants: @gap last winter @Sperry Chelsea rain boot#CapCut ? Shotgun – George Ezra

Ah, the favourite time of year for me is back. Took long enough, sheesh. California had been in a heatwave for what seemed like over two weeks and it’s only now starting to cool off enough in the mornings to wear some fall weather clothes. So here’s one of my faves, my Daddios sweater. He passed away 8 years ago, but eevery Fall/Winter I get out his 2 sweaters and wear them at least once. Here’s one of them. Back in the day when my parents went on weekend getaways I always slept with one of my Dad’s sweaters, so I had to have these when he passed.

I’ve been picking out my outfits including undergarments ahead of time. Otherwise, I tend to revert back to plain favorites. Laying back tea and a plain back leggings. This is how I would style these Boots when I take a moment for myself to pick out my outfits for the week…random fact there for ya.

Some people have asked me – How do I find time to write blog posts as a SAHM of 3? Well listen here, I tell you. My ideas come to me walking to pick up my son from school with the two younger brothers in the stroller and I use voice to text to email myself. Ideas or blog post content or just talk to myself and send myself an email with the paragraphs I’ve spoken to text, edit it to make it sound coherent and there you have it. All I have to do is include photos.

A family of Sperry lovers

Oof! This heat is getting to me. A full week of 40+ degree (celsius – I refuse to switch to farenheit just because I’m living in the only country in the world that uses fahrenheit – lol….and that’s that) without air conditioning is going to be pretty brutal. It’s only day 2 of the high temps (I’m writing this as of last night Tues Sept 6).

For the first time in 3+ years, I ended up taking my boys inside a building: the local library! The temp today reached a high of 43*C, so in order to get some relief, we hung out there for an hour or so. We ended up checking out 43 children’s books – the most books we ever checked out from the library. Both my husband and I read a lot to our boys, so this will do us 1-2wks or so.

It was a lot chillier the last few weeks, so these photos are from early August. I wanted to post them here on my blog along on my instagram, so here we are. Outfit details for everyone found at the bottom of the post! :)

OOTD Buddha pants

I miss doing OOTDs and seeing everyone’s OOTDs whether it be on instagram or on their blogs. Who else?

It’s been a while since we’ve gone to the forest for a bit of exploring. It was a super hot day earlier this week, so I put on my Buddha Pants (these were a PR gift). I packed a lunch and plenty of water for the toddler and I and we stayed in the shade to beat the heat. 

These pants are so lightweight, comfortable and super nice and flowy. They’re truly the epitome of portability as they fold themselves into their own tiny pocket. I received these back in June and have had tons of opportunities to wear them during the hot California summer. They have different styles to choose from beyond the classic harem style, but they have jogger style, jumpsuits and more.

Take a look! They’re also available on Amazon.
