{good stuff}

ya, it has been a while since i have posted...i have been parked in front of the computer trying to catch up on some photo sessions....making a wee bit of progress. I am gearing up for this weekend--full of halloween shenanigans, and having Nora's 1st birthday party~
anyways--on to the good stuff......

{Good stuff#1}--the ridonkulous october weather- top notch, we have been trying to live it up ---since the 6 month freeze will take over soon...We took the kiddos on a hike, and it was sopretty~i love all the fall colors. I really take for granted that we can leave our house, and five minutes later can be on the trails in the mountains--so great. The kids were troopers hiking like pros-- Nora was a fan of the backpack--funny little nut. All was going well until Z fell and skinned her knee, and then she was dunzo, but it was fun while it lasted~ My pops and i also went on amazing trail run this week --the scenery was fantastic....winter, you can hold off for a bit, it's fine...

the originals
{Good Stuff #3} polka dots, colored skinnys, and kelly green--I have a thing for colored pants these days--scored me some red, and blue skinnys...but i am longing for kelly green....if you see any--give me a holla--i think i may cave and order some..
oh--and polka dots--a little fun and a little retro--good combo~




Anthro
these rockstar jeggins from ON are great--the fit is fantastic, and i like this sweater with the blue jeggins--also ON. Bag--Anthro.
jenloveskev.com {zara} and the polka dot top on the right from ON--picked it up on sale for $5-bonus.

Great photos of you and the fam! I've been eying up some coloured jeans too. I saw some on the sale rack at Anthro the other day but I'll have to wait until I can actually fit into them! Love the blue and kelly green combo!

Val said...

Gah, another fabulous post by the most awesome woman!!!! Kelly green has my heart and I'am polka dot obsessed. I can't wait to read this book!! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!

Alicia said...

I love that picture of the "original" Olsen's. What a cute fam:) I am loving those green pants Shar!

Linds was talking about that book the long run...I will definitely have to read that one!

Marci said...

I love your family. It makes me happy to see you all looking so dang cute. If you love kelly green you should come out here to Eugene where the Oregon ducks rule and you can't go anywhere without seeing their colors. I'll have to get some polka dots so I can support the team in style.

Sarah said...

Such a cute family, and I seriously don't notice any small eyes!

Family hike is a must in the fall, and I love your style, as always!

Lori said...

your family is beautiful! and everyone in hawaii has small eyes, haha. yours are huge compared to ours :) can you please send some style genes to me, i am in desperate need. or maybe i'll hire you to style my fam :)

Tatiana said...

That family of yours is just beyond gorgeous. Seriously now! Love all those pics.
And your styling just blows me out of the water. Love your taste girly :-)

Lindsay said...

You have such a gorgeous family :) So glad to have you back posting. Always miss you! :)

ejcall said...

pretty sure I saw kelly green skinnys at urban outfitters about month ago, because I recall drooling alittle over them myself. Good luck with the hunt.

Aja said...

Great family pics! OK- can't wait to see and hear about Nora's party! I'm sure it will be amazing! And I'm with you on winter- it can definitely hold off for a while. Fine by me!

Unknown said...

Your fam always takes amazing pics!
And, is that the small hike that ends up at rainbow gardens? We do that one all the time, its perfect for the kiddos.

I know, I love colored jeans. I snagged a Kelly green pair at Jc penny's of all places. The best part was that they were on sale for $19.99 and, they sent me some random $10 off coupon. $10 score, sweet!

So much goodness in this post! The family hike sounds fun. I think Norah had the best seat in the house. Your family is so beautiful! Love the photos.

katygirl said...

i like when you blog and i think you should do it more!! and i think you're beautiful.

Libby said...

I kind of love/hate how cute your family looks while hiking. Not even on my best days...

The family pics turned out great. Love the top you're wearing.

I, too, am intrigued by that Steve Jobs book. I feel like reading it might make me smarter...

P.S. We need to get together for one last park day before the freeziness sets in for good!

Laura said...

Okay your family pictures are all so adorable!!! Like perfect!! Love them. I love the Rockstars from ON too...I wore some the other day with a belly band...can't zip them up anymore!

~adelle said...

Was this October perfect or what? I just want to know where it went? November is in the horizon and I am not so sure about it either! I better hold off on all this halloween candy too, or I won't be fitting into anything called skinny this winter...including skinny jeans. :) Looks like you have been having a good ole' time. Nora is ONE already? ahem. That is crazy.

Toni said...

Those are great pictures. I am and forever a Chatelain :-) it's a little weird having my brother live on my street and him being referred to as the Chatelains and them not referring to me...
So don't judge but i totally got me some fantastic colored green pants at JC Penny! Ghetto fab? maybe :) but they were only like 15$ I think. Last year I got mustard and red at Kohls for under 20$ and they are fantastic. Super tight and stretchy and don't stretch they had green too. I want that girls black and white top with her green pants, thats cute.
And you guys hike more fancy then I go out! Love it.

Unknown said...

You have a gorgeous family!!!! And those skinnies are super cute, so glad something other than blue denim is in :) By the way, I know you had talked about doing a post on traning/running, would love to hear your thoughts!

Sam W. said...

great family photos!! looks like a fun group :)

hope you have a wonderful weekend and halloween!

Natalie said...

Wow not only is your immediate family adorable so is the rest of the family! So glad you got some great family shots. And that's so awesome you can just walk out of your house and into the mountains. Wish I could say the same!

Ashley said...

I myself am part of an Olsen family... my grandmother's maiden name. The extended family is massive. Wonder if we're somehow related down the line. :)

Not sure if I could pull off the colored skinnys, but I LOVE them. Especially with the polka dots.

Sherice said...

Yup~ all good stuff. I scored me that polka dot number and red skinny's at ON too! We'll have to call each other, and totally wear it on the same day! Ha:) Your family pictures are so darn cute, you are all gorgous. Steve Jobs is my hero, book club read?? Hmmm... keep me posted:)

Brandi said...

Amazing pics!!!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!!! U have fab taste!!!

Joi said...

Hey Shar! Miss you, lady!

Your family is gorgeous. So so beautiful!

Lauren said...

I'm thinking your fam NEVER takes bad pix! Lov-a-lee! And ya, I'm a polka dot girlie. Hate to show my legs...but will for colored tights!

Ann said...

You have the loveliest family photos!

And I do love me some skinnys too.

I agree that Kelly green would be nice.

C said...

Hey Sharstin! I'm a friend of Joi's and found your blog. I recently purchased a pair of Kelly green ankle skinny's at Anthro on sale! They are "stretchy" too! Just thought I'd let you know :-)

Amber said...

Love these family pictures! I agree with one of the other commenters, I think I need you to style my family too : )

Danielle Potter said...

I love the family pics soooo cute! I better get some and I can't wait to see pics of the kiddos on Halloween :)

Alena: Oh, Its Just Perfect! said...

You look so cute when you go hiking - I need to learn from you. I'm usually a makeup free mess with workout gear on.

Your family pics are so beautiful - I love the original one and then ones of your family. How are you going to decide which ones to frame?!?

Amy said...

Jess said...
