Style Guide

When I was in Oregon, I found this seersucker suit at Target, size 24 months, in the clearance rack for, not kidding, SIX DOLLARS AND TWENTY-FOUR CENTS. How could I not buy it? (Someday I'll give you a glimpse into my closet, I mean closets, full of little boys church clothes.) Anyway, the suit was identical to one that John's friend Ty had gotten earlier in the year, and when John saw it, he thought it was for him and was so excited to have a suit "just like Ty". So I held the size 24 month suit up to my three and half year old, and thought, "why not? He's cute, he can pull it off".

And, according to the latest issue of GQ (which still SOMEHOW finds it's way into our home even though I've thrown away every subscription renewal form I can ever find),he's doing it just right.

The caption of this picture says, "Lighten Your Load: A papery thin, lightweight khaki suit...Crop the pants short and ditch the socks for an even more summery vibe."



He's definitely got some kind of vibe going here...

oh, my. he is so, so darling! the suit, the sunglasses, the loafers... again, you make me want a boy to dress. finley is sitting on my lap asking me to get out of this screen so she can see johnny again- "he's so funny," she says. maybe I will just have to wait to have dapper son-in-laws and I put my money on those two :) they would make a cute pair!

That is the cutest thing I've ever seen. I can't wait until Porter can fit into a suit. It will be a requirement every sunday.

How adorable! There is just something about little boys all dressed up that you can't resist them.
