How is it the last week of October already?? I feel like Fall is flying by and I’m seeing Christmas decorations everywhere already! A few weeks ago we went out on our annual trip to see the pumpkins at the Dallas Arboretum’s Pumpkin Village and it was a great way to still enjoy one of our yearly traditions even amidst all the changes that are happening this year. I usually love taking the opportunity to get a few family photos in as well, and thank goodness I was able to capture a couple good ones cause it’s looking like these will be making it to our holiday photos this year too! 🙃
Our reservation to the pumpkin patch kinda snuck up on me but thankfully we had some outfits that ended up coordinating quite well together! I’ve shared my family outfit planning tips before and while we usually center our outfits around one of the girls’ looks, this year Dylan was the star of the show! Dylan actually only had a single button-down shirt that still fit him (I need to update his Fall wardrobe!) so we ended up coordinating the rest of our outfits around his orange shirt. Despite the last minute ensemble, I actually think the green and orange combination worked out really well together and made for a great Fall family photo!
Read on for a few tips when it comes to coordinating family outfits for photos as well as additional outfit collages at the end for you to shop!
Coordinating Family Outfits
TIP 1: Go For Earthier Tones
I love that the cooler months brings on some of the earthier colors such as maroons, oranges, greens, and browns. It adds such a vibrancy when it comes to photos so don’t be afraid to find a pick out clothes that are rich and saturated. I actually find that these colors are really flattering on the skin as well and bring out a warmth in photos that I absolutely love!
TIP 2: Add A Pop Of Print
I usually like to have one of the outfits showing a fun print just to break up the solid colors and add in some variety! In our case this year, I had both kids wear prints in their outfits and it actually coordinated well as there was a common burnt orange color that tied both looks together. Don’t be afraid to spice it up too and look for prints that channel the new season — think pumpkins, turkeys, foxes, or even just leaves!
TIP 3: Twin With Shoes!
Women’s Bearpaw ‘Kako’ Boots | Girls’ Bearpaw ‘Kako’ Boots
Girls’ Bearpaw ‘Rosie’ Boots
Shoes are another fun way to finish off that coordinating family outfit! Mei and I both had fur-lined boots from Bearpaw and I love how it really added in that cozy Fall vibe. Brands such as Bearpaw and Ugg both make styles that come in adult and kids sizes, making this matching aspect really fun and easy!
