Actually a Dress

As this belly grows bigger and bigger, it’s getting hard to find shirts that are long enough. This top is actually a dress technically, but I’m loving wearing it as a top with leggings. These leggings have been my best friend these last few months. I dare you try and take them from me! It’s not happening 🙂

I have been so grateful that it has been warming up lately. Considering it hailed most of the day today, though, I’d say the weather is still feeling a bit moody. I try and keep a jacket with me for those swings that sneak up on you. This jacket is fun and a little edgy!

For my makeup I decided to keep everything pretty neutral except my lip color. I like to add a little pop sometimes! I’m wearing Desert Sunset blush, IIID foundation, honey illuminator, eyeshadows sabrina, mama, oak, and trust all from HERE

Hope you are doing well! Have a beautiful week and be kind 🙂 XO

Date Night Dress

January 18, 2017August 18, 2017Leave a comment

It is hard to believe that Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! We have a lot of holidays in February so we actually moved our Valentine’s to August. I still want to bring you a look perfect for the occasion, however! We will be celebrating our Anniversary that week, so whatever your occasion, I have the perfect date night dress for you.

This dress is not maternity, but it does have some stretch to it. The material is thick, so I feel like it’s easier to wear than some other form fitting dresses I have tried. I just can’t get comfortable in those slinky ones knowing that all my lumps and bumps are on display haha! I think the high neckline, knee length, and long sleeves in combo with the thicker fabric make this super comfortable! The side panels are made of a stretchy sheer material, just FYI. I didn’t realize that when I ordered the dress. I just wore a black slip under it, though, and it filled in well. Now I think the sheer panels give it a little more stretching power for my steadily growing belly haha 🙂

My favorite part, of course, is the lace on the bottom. It adds such a feminine touch. I paired it with these red bow heels that are definitely making a statement! They are still in stock in smaller sizes. If they don’t have your size, check out these. I’m crushing hard on them and I think they would look amazing with this dress!

Have you started making plans? I’d love to hear any fun date ideas you have! XO

Flowy Fall Maxi

I love when the leaves are both on the trees and on the ground. It’s a small window, but I always appreciate it. I love driving down streets downtown with big, mature trees! It feels like a tunnel of amazing fall-ness 🙂

This dress from Make Me Chic also adds to the feeling of amazing fall-ness, because it is perfect for this weather! It is fully lined through the skirt, so it is warm enough for these cooler days, but still flowy and easy to wear. The olive color is one of my favorite colors to wear in the fall and winter! One of my favorite parts about it is that it can be dressed up for a formal holiday party, or worn more casually as well. I love a versatile piece that stands on it’s own!

I chose to pair it with simple gold jewelry here. I plan to dress it up with more jewelry and heels next time! I love how comfortable it is, yet looks so classy.

What are your favorite fall items? We are fully embracing the pumpkin everything and hot wassail! XO
