My go-to outfit lately has been a sweater and jeans. It keeps me warm and it's comfortable enough to work with my bump at the stage I'm in right now. I've been loving Madewell's sweater selection this winter. This one is especially fun with the striped balloon sleeves. It has a slight boxy fit and I went one size up to make it work with my bump.

Now that Christmas is less than one week away, it means New Years Eve is right behind. I thought I'd share a fun and festive look for the big night. This sparkly maxi dress gives me some disco ball vibes, which I highlighted even more with my metallic silver leather jacket. But since I'm six months pregnant I dressed it down on the bottom with my trusty vans high-tops. Kind of a mullet of looks - glam on top, casual on the bottom.
I'm over half-way through my second pregnancy and if there's anything I learned from the first time it's that getting dressed isn't always easy. Luckily last time I picked up some tricks (aka closet staples) to soften the blow. I have a couple of tried and true pairs of jeans that I'm still fitting in/relying on heavily. And I've also been trying out two new pairs of maternity jeans.
This is the second time I've been pregnant around the holidays and it's interesting. In some ways it's really great, like indulging in all the yummy food that's around this time of year. Wearing all the cozy layers - sweaters, jackets, etc. But it comes with challenges too... always being the designated driver and trying to figure out what to wear to a holiday party when all you want is to sit on your couch in your PJ's. I think I found the answer to the what to wear part. This velour jumpsuit is just as comfortable as pajamas, but looks super chic. It's not maternity, but definitely has enough give to work with a bump. Perfect for pregs AND regs.

Last week I posted a photo of Crosby and I in matching pj's on instagram and this week we're back with more. These cute pajamas are from PJ Salvage and you know I love the mommy and me matching prints. I sized up to a 2T on Crosby's jammies and got a cute little one piece matching romper for baby boy. They're a little big on her this year but hopefully they'll both fit into them next year and we can match again.
