maytwentyeighth.



I went to the mall this morning with my son to look for sunglasses for him, and we found some KILLER mini Wayfarers for him at The Children's Place for three dollars! (Now we have matchy-matchy glasses.)



Photos to come soon...

Big Changes!



I tried this Kensie dress on the other day at 1/2 of 1/2 Name Brand Clothing, but I didn't end up buying it. It was only $12, but to a girl who's used to $2.00 thrift store prices, that's a good chunk of cash! heh. I do love it, however, and I slightly regret not snatching it up. It would be perfect for these HOT, MUGGY, HUMID days that are ahead of me. Summer is my MOST LEASTEST FAVORITE... I kind of hate it.

In other news, you can expect some big changes to this blog over the next 8 months or so. This fashion blog is destined to morph slowly (oh, so slowly!) into a super hip and fun and cool MATERNITY Fashion Blog- woo woo! I am preggo with my second child, and I want to use this place (as I grow) to show women that Maternity can be funky and fashionable too- and you can create fresh looks on a low budget just as easily as you can when you're not expecting! Maternity fashion is just so... BLAH... and GROSS (in my opinion), so keep your eyes peeled for ways to accommodate a growing belly without running into your nearest overpriced Maternity store.

Current readers- don't worry, you won't be alienated over the next few months- I hope to create looks that are fashionable and transferable to those who aren't expecting as well. And if you know of any mommas out there, let them know about this site! Fashion doesn't have to be thrown by the wayside just because your waist line is expanding.

Pregnancy is the PERFECT time to celebrate who you are and what you love!

What I'm Wearing.



I got these Free People shorts at a consignment/thrift shop the other day. I love the stitch detailing and the southwestern feel paired with clunky boots. Is 'clunky' even a word? Let's pretend that it is.

May Something-teenth.



I created this look by taking a simple knee-length dress and adding a skinny belt. Then I pulled the dress up and over the belt to create the blouse-y, slouchy look.

I know I've been wearing this jacket to death, but it really is the perfect weight for the weather lately. Not too hot, not too cold- juuuuuuuust right.

Jacket, dress, bag, boots, and the kitchen sink- THRIFTED.

INC Maxi Dress



I finally found a maxi dress that I love... One that doesn't make me feel like a shapeless blob! (The flowy-ness of this skirt makes me want to run around in meadows and drink lemonade under shade trees while wearing a big, floppy hat on my head.) I have a feeling that this dress will be a perfect Summer companion!

INC dress- Found at "1/2 of 1/2"- $29.00
Flip Flops- $4.00

Venturing Out.



It is beautiful outside today.

I did some gardening earlier this morning, and after this I may change into my new bathing suit and get a little bit of sun. I'm going to an art show later tonight, where I will get to hear my hubby play his viola, which is pretty much the hottest hotness ever hotted. I can't wait.
