Winter is on its way and we had our first, yet brief, snowfall this week. The city streets become a slushy mess and so either rain boots with warm liners or boots with a waterproof toe area are a must.

It’s mid November and time to start planning for the 2013 Christmas card! I would absolutely love to do another photo card of the entire family, but since my husband was appalled by my photo choice for last year, above photo, he has kindly suggested that we just keep this year about Reagan.
We had some lovely pictures taken by EIEIO Photography a few weeks back and the shots of Reagan are definetly Christmas card worthy. However, I have been admiring Kristen Koppers Photography on Facebook for sometime now, so when she posted a children’s only Mini Session on Facebook; I jumped at the opportunity to work with her! The session is super short, no time for a change of clothes and only one background.
This is ultimately a session for the Christmas card, so ‘Christmasy’ attire is in order.
This is part of the email sent by the photographer:
Each session is about 20 minutes. I will be using a cream background and a cream wood floor as well as my cream “shaggy” rug. I have lots of organic/ earthy trees/ greenery with some vintage crates, stools and chairs. I recommend keeping clothing classic.
I adore the word classic.
Classic Choices…

1. Casey Cardigan 2. Button Down Oxford Shirt 3. Gigi Pant 4. Patent Tortoise Ballet Flats

1.Plaid Bow Back Top 2.Gigi Pant in Velvet Dot 3.Glitter Bow Oxfords
I’m in love with the plaid shirt, but worry about the ‘tent’ look on my super tiny kiddo. Reagan loves the sparkle shoes, so I would love to snag a pair in her size, regardless if they ended up making the photo cut. Here’s hoping we find what we want in her size!

I recently purchased a pair of Lucky Brand boots, similar, from a fabulous tiny shop in a neighboring town. I have searched for the past few years for tall fall boots that are slim enough for my tiny calf’s. This is the only pair of boots that I have found that I can’t fit my entire arm down while wearing. Being completely satisfied with my purchase, I decided to take a look at the online Lucky Brand store…What I found was amazing!
Lucky has a fabulous sale happening right now! Lucky Brand sale items are on sale! Here are the pieces that I’m contemplating purchasing for Reagan:
