Postpartum

This is me at 5 weeks postpartum-- feeling excited about fitting into old clothes again. Although... this was not a very practical outfit for breastfeeding. Hahaha. It lasted about 2 hours before I had to change again.

*Sigh* The joys of postpartum mamma...

Sunday Wear.

There was a big lightning storm last night. So I'm wearing my lightning shirt. Clever, no? This red skirt was a thrift store find- it's from The Children's Place (of all places.)

Happy Sunday!

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.

What I'm Wearing.

I found this little GAP romper mini dress at a thrift store and have loved finding ways to pair it with things- leggings and tights or wearing it open over floral mini dresses...

That's the amazing thing about thrift stores. If I had walked by this jumper on display in the GAP storefront window in the mall, I would've thought "eh.. that could be cute!" and kept right on walking. Because you can't EXPERIMENT with things that have $60+ price tags on them. (Well, at least I can't!) But when you can find something like this with a $3 price on it, it allows you to step outside of your fashion box more often and try things that you never thought you would have. I could NEVER have found my own 'style' if I hadn't stumbled into a thrift store in my early high school years- because everything in the 'affordable' chain stores (And, as a youngster, affordable is pretty much the only option, no?) is so generic and so...cookie-cutter. There's no room for creativity and quirkiness in those places.

So, thrift stores of the world- I SALUTE YOU!

hehe.

Girl's Night!

I've been taking your advice lately and wearing the tallest shoes I own no-matter-the-heck what. (And actually feeling great about it.) Shoot darn! I may never wear flats again!

I'm going out to a friend's house for a much needed girl's night. I plan to drink yummy grown-up drinks and talk about something (ANYTHING!) other than Batman and Tractors for awhile. Look out world!
