It’s a mom’s life, for sure, these days. Running on coffee, chaos, and cuss words.

With school starting last week in such a different way, there is definitely more chaos than ever before. With more chaos comes the need for more coffee and more cuss words. Seriously, I have the mouth of a sailor and my kids have picked up on way too much of it. But then again, it’s all just words anyway. If I have enough coffee, I don’t get as irritable about the little things…like when my kids use cuss words. Hey, at least they use them correctly and within context. So we have that going for us!

When I spotted this fun graphic tee from Bellelily, I immediately added it to my cart. You probably already know by now that I am a woman obsessed with quirky and witty graphic tees. But they must speak to me on a personal level. Like this one! You won’t ever catch me wearing a tee that makes a political or religious statement. You probably won’t ever see me in a tee about wine or beer or booze because I just am not much of a drinker. But if a tee has a sassy or silly message that speaks directly to me, then I find it difficult to resist adding it to my ever growing collection.

Not only did the silly (and true) graphic draw me in, but I love the deep red color and the space dyed fabric. I prefer v-neck tees so that was just another bonus. This tee shirt is lightweight and soft and washed perfectly just like my other graphic tees from Belleilily. For just $12.99, the I Run On Coffee, Chaos, and Cuss Words T-Shirt is a great bargain for all the wear it will get in the coming years.

Now let’s get to the styling part…I had an image in my mind of pairing this shirt with a black tulle or pleated skirt and combat boots. I tried on two different skirts and they were just not working the way I wanted to. So I had to ditch that idea and think of something else.

I opted for a long straight black knit maxi skirt with my new to me combat boots that I recently found at my local Salvation Army Thrift Store. A denim jacket and minimal jewelry finished off this easy look that was perfect for a family day spent walking by the water in Clayton, New York.

Heading into fall and winter, I can definitely see myself wearing this tee shirt often. It will be great with a classic combination of jeans and a cardigan but would also look super cool under a blazer or paired with joggers. Of course, I cannot forget that tights weather is upon us reminding me how cute this tee will look with coordinated with a short skirt and colorful legs.
