someone recently dm'ed me to tell me that faux leather is a mom's best friend. if anything spills on it (which is bound to happen), you can just wipe it clean! brilliant. you already know i've become obsessed with my spanx maternity faux leather leggings (shown above), but i've also started thinking about how i'll ...
2020 just might be the year of the baby with how many of my girlfriends are pregnant right now! the first of my fellow expectant mommas had her baby shower this weekend and with only a few weeks to go before her baby arrives, it made me so excited for her and all that is ...
i'm no stranger to a good monochromatic outfit, but i had yet to translate that into my maternity style. so for our recent wedding anniversary dinner, i decided to pair two unexpected items to create a groutfit (grey + outfit) of sorts. i bought this skirt when i was about 5-6 weeks pregnant with the ...
a top benefit of being one of the last of your friends to start a family is the hand-me-downs you graciously receive (this benefit second only to the amazing advice you also receive). every body responds differently to pregnancy (especially when you're the only of your closest friends who is expecting twins), so sharing clothes ...

once i started gaining weight from this pregnancy, the first thing i found no longer fit were my jeans (they gave up around week 9). truthfully, the idea of wearing buttoned pants sounded terrible so i wasn't completely heartbroken, but i figured it might be nice to own at least one pair of bump-friendly denim ...
the further i get into this pregnancy, the more comfort becomes a top priority. if it doesn't feel good on my body, most likely this momma isn't going to wear it. as part of our christmas present this year, natalie gifted team natalie borton a pair of birdies flats. i opted for the taupe leather since ...
