Welcome to this week’s what to wear. I went with a simple color scheme of brown and purple. (I promise, next week I will step away from the brown!!)  This week every single piece you see here is from Old Navy and the only things over $20 are the mom’s jeans and the girl’s coat So you can do a great job of dressing for a session and still keep it cheap!!

I started with the girl’s outfit because once I saw it I couldn’t resist! How cute is that precious little hat?? As we get cooler, the corduroy dress with tights and a little coat becomes a great option. For the boy, nice and simple half-zip sweater with jeans. Boys tend to get a little dirty during shoots so I stick with jeans or dark colored bottoms. Khakis aren’t a bad thing at all but in the fall with leaves, dirt, mud etc, better off doing cords, dark twill pants or jeans.  (Same thing with ivory tights for little girls, by the way – they are going to get dirty, just be warned.  Better to add some boots or a different color / pattern tight.)  For mom a great pair of jeans (and bonus ladies, these are Old Navy’s new Dreamer Jeans which have a little tummy flattening action and a little extra boost for your caboose 😉 ) Then a pretty top and this great purple sweater swing coat. And as a nice little extra, a bunch of ON’s sweater coats are on sale for $20 this week! And for dad a nice pair of jeans and a brown and white striped button down. Something else to break up the solid brown tops you are getting with the mom and son.

And one last little note. For extra savings on shopping make sure to check out Old Navy Weekly – they update the site with new coupons every Thursday evening sometime after about 5:00. Nice easy way to save some extra money!!  And I have to admit, I think the modelquins stuff is kind of funny!
