my very favorite maternity jeans

Let's be honest - it's hard enough to find good jeans when you're not pregnant let alone finding a good pair for an ever changing, ever growing body. It's something I've always struggled with in general {insert vivid memory of me crying in the junior department dressing room at Macy's when I was 13 because I could not find one pair of jeans that fit me} and it's why in my adult years I've definitely been drawn to dresses and skirts over jeans and pants. However, there are a lot of times when jeans are just the most practical option {like during a winter pregnancy, for example} and if you find yourself pregnant in almost any season you're going to want a good pair of maternity jeans.

spring forward

Hello fellow parents of toddlers who are riding the struggle bus the day after daylight saving time! Just remember, we are all in this together {even though we are probably suffering separately}. After trying to get Annabelle to fall asleep tonight FOR AN HOUR I raised the white flag and called in reinforcements {Ken}. Now I'm sitting on the couch with a ridiculously large piece of chocolate cake and feeling pretty good about myself. This is parenting, friends. When there's not wine, there's cake.

pregnancy update | 24 weeks

Well friends, let me introduce you to my 6 month pregnant belly {and my blindingly white legs}. Despite the snow that just refuses to melt I've started to transition my wardrobe to spring in a major way. I also have been doing some major spring cleaning around our house and I'm getting eager to get started on the nursery. We still have some time but I'm not so secretly hoping the next few months fly by because I'm getting so excited to meet this little babe!

going gingham

Nothing says spring is near more than a chic gingham print. Ok maybe actual spring weather helps too but stick with me here - gingham, friends!

pumped up kicks {the best golden goose dupes}

If you follow any other bloggers or fashion influencers you are probably familiar with Golden Goose sneakers. They're super popular right now - definitely a trendier look and they're very pricey at about $500/pair. I mean honestly, who is spending that kind of money on sneakers?  [show_shopthepost_widget id="3019484"]

flower child

As we inch, crawl, and squeak our way closer to spring I've found myself getting into 70's vibes. I always appreciate incorporating the latest trends into my wardrobe and when I came across this cardigan a few weeks ago it just spoke to me. As I've said numerous times before, I'm making it a point during this pregnancy to invest in fun non-maternity wardrobe pieces like coats, jackets, and even capes. Please add cardigans to the list!  [show_shopthepost_widget id="3017884"]

why I’m buying all the coats

Perhaps it's become somewhat obvious as of late but if there's one thing I'm investing in this winter it's coats. While I can blame many things on pregnancy brain my new found coat obsession is not one of them. There's actually a strategy behind my purchases and I'm going to share it with you today.

As this pregnancy progresses I'm remembering that there are really only so many ways to dress a bump. In an attempt to streamline my wardrobe I've been attempting to come up with a few uniforms or formulas for creating an outfit. One of my favorites is definitely a bodycon dress paired with a cardigan or a blazer. [show_shopthepost_widget id="2995815"]
