Forever 21 has been my favorite place to buy clothes during both of my pregnancies. Whenever I'm in a rut I go there and always find plenty of non-maternity options that work on my big old bump. Their stretchy dresses are everything. I popped in last week and came out with a bunch of new things I wanted to share. The best part is they work both with and without a baby bump!
Happy Friday! Excited to head into another (hopefully) productive weekend of nesting and getting stuff done. You know I can’t miss an opportunity to twin with Crosby so when I saw this toddler Rolling Stones t-shirt at Target I picked it up to match with this one from my closet. Of course getting her to pose with me in them proved to be next to impossible. #toddlers But how cute was she once I left the frame?

We did it! We moved Crosby into her new bedroom over the weekend... so far, so good... or about as good as can be expected while she's teething and going through a sleep regression. No one is getting a full night's rest around here these days. Now that we have less than seven weeks until baby boy is due, it's crunch time to get the nursery ready. I wore this outfit on Sunday when we officially made the room switch, snapped a mirror selfie and got so many questions about where my overalls and other pieces were from, I knew I had to shoot it for a blog post.

The sun is finally shining but we're still bundled up over here. It seems like it's been the longest and most real winter we've ever had. Our winter clothes are getting a lot of use! I wore this faux fur BB Dakota coat all weekend... even around the house. It's been a favorite for months, but I'm looking forward to swapping it out for something a lot lighter... soon. We cannot wait for warm weather!

A little more pink to close out the love week. I've mentioned it before, but Forever 21 is really my favorite place to buy non-maternity maternity clothes. Especially stretchy dresses like this one. They're really affordable (this one is $15) so no worries if you don't want to wear them after baby and I always go up a size to make sure they'll fit.
Over the weekend I was feeling so blah and uninspired with the current rotation of things that fit me. I decided to shop my closet, if you will, and put together this look with pieces that are all a couple of years old. Sometimes I think I have these pregnancy wardrobe delusions where I put something on thinking it will still fit the way it did a few months/weeks/days ago and then get frustrated when that's not the case. So I went back to some old faithfuls that worked my first pregnancy and was happy and comfortable all day.
