I’ve never been one to pay super close attention to wearing the liturgical colors at Mass. But, I’ve been on a kick here the last couple of weeks and since today is Gaudette Sunday, I thought it would be fun to rock some pink.
Except all my pink is summer clothes.
It’s probably a fashion faux pas, but I paired my silky, summery shirt with my favorite black velvet pants. That makes it “wintery,” right? RIGHT?! I found some great closed-toe black shoes on sale earlier in the week and I love them!
This weekend, we enjoyed a whole lotta fun – a 4-H Food Show, the Nutcracker Ballet and a swanky date night sans kids. It was full of sweet memories with my husband and children. In light of what happened on Friday, I’m grateful for the blessings we enjoy. I pray you did the same.
Outfit:
Pants/Shirt: White House Black Market (I know, you’re shocked)
Shoes: Alex Marie from Dillard’s
Bracelet: gift from my son’s Catholic school, I wear it all the time!
Earrings: cheapo fake pearl earrings from “who knows where”
To be inspired to dress your best for Mass, head on over to Fine Linen and Purple!











Here at Team Whitaker, I blog about life as it happens: big families, carpool, Catholicism,Texas Aggies, prematurity, DIY/organizing projects, sanity checks and the occasional glass of wine at 10am. You get real Kathryn. Unedited, honest and hopefully funny. Motherhood and our faith lives are a journey, join me.

You’re such a knockout, Kathryn!! The velvet pants absolutely winterize that pretty, pretty top! Love it.
You have such a warm and inviting smile, Kathryn! I’m not sure if anyone has ever told you that, but I thought I’d just share that!
I read that comment just when I needed it most today, Jiza. Thank you, very much.
You look wonderful, that is such an awesome top! If it wasn’t so cold in Colorado lately I’d be rocking my summer clothes too! The bracelet is wonderful as well =)
You are just beautiful, Katherine!
I love the look of the silky shirt with those pants!

You need to go out on a limb more often. You are WORKING those pants, K! So pretty. Next up: leather.

I love the whole ensemble. Look at everyone wearing pink! (or rose I guess..) I fail I don’t even own anything in that color. Oh well! I love the bracelet too. Thanks for linking as always!
