Hey, friends! Come along for a little soccer-momming, a fall fest (with a surprising competition, even), afternoon cocktails with friends, and a backyard movie night complete with pumpkin carving. We had a full schedule, y’all!
I even managed to sneak in a bit of Saturday-morning reading time and read the most gorgeous book. We’re experimenting more with a vlog format over on The Mom Edit’s YouTube channel to give a peek into our lives outside the work week, so this video is just a fun little glimpse of what we got up to recently!
Soccer-Momming, Fall Fests, Cocktails + Pumpkins: A Fun October Weekend
It wasn’t all play though… I did a little work on an upcoming holiday gift guide that will be publishing soon — get a sneak peek inside!
Most of my fall weekends include soccer, but this one was also especially full of festive events. Deets below on what I mentioned and wore.
My Morning Faves
Coffee, silk and a good book is a really great morning…in my book. Heh.
My Go-To Makeup For Getting Ready Fast
I always wear makeup when I leave the house (my grandmother, mom and Southern roots instilled that in me), but I like to keep it fresh and minimal for everyday. These are all great and easy for a five-min face — especially when I’m rushing to get to an early soccer game!
I’ve just started patting a little bit of this rose oil under my primer or foundation, and it’s game-changing for preventing flakiness or dryness!
Soccer-Mom Outfit
This green pullover has become one of my real go-tos. It’s cozy without being too hot and perfectly oversized. Wearing a S.

Excited for this article to drop soon!
Pumpkin-Festival Attire
This is a perfect outfit…just add a jacket for cooler temps. The pants don’t work in our widget below, but they’re SO comfy and from my my fave Nashville brand, Imogene + Willie.
Thanks for joining me and my little fam this weekend — and for putting up with my first foray into vlogging! See ya next time!

Want to keep up with everything else I’m into? Pop over to my Instagram @laurajansenstyle where I love talking about food, sharing OOTDs, posting travel pics and chatting everyday mom-life stuff from Portland, Oregon. Oh, and lots of funny memes and pet videos because what is social media without plenty of those? xoxo
Hi Laura! Can you say what size you wear in the Imogen and Willie pants? And are they similar to a soft jean? My weekend may need them. Thank you!
Hi yes let me double check! They are so comfy. They’re woven so more of a heavy pant than a jean, but gosh now I want all the colors. Looks like I got a M which is perfectly loose but still fits my booty. I also got them to hem them for me (a 26″ inseam for my height) and they’ll work with you to hem to whatever length you want before shipping!
I loved this vlog post!!! Thanks for sharing a weekend in your life. Look forward to more.
Thank you so much! It was a blast. xo
Such a fun vlog! May I ask what your lip color is (nudey-pink one)? Thanks!
Thank you! Ooh yes I’ll see. I wear so many because I have a slight addiction to lipstick and lipgloss. But I think this was the Charlotte Tilbury Happikiss in Pillow Talk, I believe! I adore this product and have it in the Passion Kiss, too. https://shopstyle.it/l/bNwF9
This was so fun to watch! Love seeing the makeup on video; inspired me to purchase. Darling pets!
Oh great I’m so glad it was helpful. Haha my pets say thank you, too!
I love Terry Tempest Williams! Thanks for the book rec and peek into your weekend.
