Wicked for Good

Sartorial Saturday–Pink & Green

Wicked for Good just came out, and since it’s all the rage right now, I decided to style an outfit in the iconic duo of pink and green that’s so famous in the franchise!

The Clarisse-Gia blouse, Terentia-Paz vest, and Lucile-Paz trumpet skirt are all from the most recent Miss Candyfloss collection, and were actually styled together on their website. Honestly, I wouldn’t have thought of pairing these pieces on my own, so I’m grateful for the recommendation!

I kept my accessories pink and green, too, including an Erstwilder gingko leaf brooch and stack of Splendette Duchess Bangles. I also added my Erstwilder The Wizard of Oz “The Good Witch’s Crown” earrings, which are perfect for the occasion!

I love the way my ankle boots, which are just a few shades darker than the suit separates, anchor the outfit!

It’s so much fun to come up with an outfit idea inspired by something from pop culture!

2025-26 School Year–Week Twelve

It’s been quite a week!

On Saturday, we went on our annual autumn walk around Creve Coeur Lake. It was a beautiful day!

Chickadee and I had fun playing tennis:

We made challah from the American Girl Sweet and Savory Treats Cookbook inspired by Chickadee’s original American Girl doll, Rebecca Rubin:

And then Chickadee broke her ankle. We still got quite a bit of work done, but I’m not going to lie…some things got skipped this week! In algebra she reviewed everything she’s learned about solving systems of equations, and then graphed them, too. In history we read about the Boxer rebellion and Japan’s victory over a European army when they defeated Russia in the Russo-Japanese War. In science we continued to discuss the naming of compounds. We continued reading Treasure Island. And we stopped by Dunkin’ Donuts to try their new Wicked for Good drinks…the matcha variety was especially delicious!

I’ve had to rearrange our field trip plans for the next few weeks due to Chickadee’s broken ankle, and I definitely don’t think we’ll be playing tennis anytime soon!
