After spending so much of the last year at home I find myself staying the rooms in my house and visualizing how I'd re-do them. One space that's been bugging me for awhile was our den. It's a sitting area in between our living room and dining room - the middle of our "great" room....
This time of year is always a little tricky for me to dress for. It's definitely still summer here (it will be warm until at least November), on one hand I'd love to live in swimwear and cutoffs all year, but part of me wants a little bit of fall. I'm starting to shop and incorporate a few fall-ish items into my wardrobe.
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 coatall 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!
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.
Although I do like to dress up, I'm all about practical style. It just fits in with my life. When shopping I look for pieces I can wear every day while working from home and playing with an active toddler, that still work if I am out and about.
