Emmy & Kris - Picture Outfits

I don't have anything picked for any of us yet!  I was going to find something for me first, and then pick what the boys (Rich included) will be wearing since they will be pretty easy.  I don't want to be matchy-matchy, but want our colors to coordinate.  Last year we wore a burgundy/blue/green kind of color scheme (pics on FB), so I am just looking at doing something different than that.  I was thinking maybe purple/gray/navy or something else with gray? But really it just depends on what I can find for myself.  I am definitely open for suggestions!!!

    What do you want to wear? Dress? Skirt? Pants? Jeans?

    I love purple so I think purple/grey/navy combo would be great

  • I like the navy/grey combo, especially if you add a pop of color for yourself.  (I think either orange or purple would look nice)

  • What do you want to wear? Dress? Pants? Jeans?
    My first choice would probably be jeans, but I am open.  The boys will probably be wearing jeans or khakis/pants.  I do have a dress that's kind of a dark teal-ish color, that I was thinking of pairing with gray.   I really just need to get to the mall and do some shopping!
  • We did family pics in grey, purple and white and it looked really nice I think! We wore jeans as well. (Pics are on FB) So another vote for grey & purple. The jeans will add the navy color...
  • I love the combo Amy posted.

    We're getting our first family photos taken this fall. I'm going to stalk this post!

    I was leaning towards a gray/green combo - but I love the addition of purple or navy.

  • I love the purple, navy, grey combo! Or you could do turquoise or coral with navy and grey. Teal would work great with navy and grey.

    Let me look and I will be back...

    I just got this dress and the purple one in the mail yesterday. I'm wearing the purple one today with boots. I love it! When you said purple/grey/navy combo I immediately thought of this dress!

    Lands End. If you click on the name in Kris' post she directly linked to them.

    They just had a dress sale and then were doing $20 off $75. But they usually have a promotion going on to make the price a little more reasonable.

    No problem. Now I really want that flowered one but I just bought a dress very similar to the teal one from Banana Republic for my grandfather's celebration of life brunch so I really don't need another.

    I was really debating getting the flower one too. But the reviews were hit and miss. It seems similar to the one i have but is different so i was worried about fit. And I wasn't so sure about how thin the fabric is. The ponte one has a nice weight to it.

    But when you posted the flower one it made me want it again!

    If they have it in the store, I will try it on this weekend and let you know how the fit/fabric feels.
