As of today I'm 35 weeks pregnant. I kind of can't believe it! Crosby was born at 38 weeks and 3 days and that's just so soon! I'm not feeling "ready," but doubt I ever will. I am ready to not be pregnant anymore though!
wardrobe details
I've been getting a lot of questions about baby shower dress inspiration and thought it would make for a fun blog post. Early on in my pregnancy I decided I wasn't having a shower this time around. I was pregnant with Crosby exactly two years ago and was blessed with two beautiful showers for her. We have a lot we can reuse on baby boy and I'm often sent new products to try out. There's really no need for another shower.
Once you get to a certain point, a really hard part of pregnancy is getting dressed. I'm not the biggest fan of maternity clothes and try my hardest to wear my pre-pregnancy stuff as much as possible. Of course some things are no longer an option, like my fav high-waisted Levis with tops tucked in. But I did have a few pairs of jeans that were still (somehow) fitting... until recently. After the first of the year nothing was comfortable anymore. Enter the Bellaband. Now I can wear my favorite stretchy jeans un-zipped and un-buttoned and NO ONE has to know.
Another cozy sweater look coming your way. I've worn this heart sweater from Madewell so many times since I got it just a couple weeks ago. I was worried it wouldn't fit right with the bump but I went up a size and it's perfect.
on me: sunglasses, sweater c/o, jeans
What day is it? Is anyone else in a post-Christmas fog? The days between Christmas and New Years always seem to blend into a weird haze and I never really know what to do with myself. This year I'm being lazy and productive... the best of both worlds. Jeff's been cleaning out the garage and once he finishes that we'll be tackling the guest room. But let's move on to what I'm wearing.
sunglasses, dress c/o (also here), similar shoes
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.
