style, stories & everything in between
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 ...
for a gal that loves overalls, there was no question that a maternity version was making its way into my maternity capsule wardrobe. after doing a bit of research on the best affordable option on the market, i landed on this distressed pair from motherhood maternity. i sized up to the medium to accommodate a ...
it may seem crazy to splurge on a t-shirt, but after adding two anine bing tees to my wardrobe over the last year, i can say they are worth every penny. they are well-made, machine washable, and, as evidenced by today's post, extremely versatile in terms of styling. last time i styled one of anine ...
while i'd say i'm more top 40 (boy bander for life!) than rock n' roll, i have found a recent love for band tees during this pregnancy. perhaps i've been influenced by my sweet husband who is an avid foo fighters fan? whatever the reason, i can't stop collecting them for my maternity wardrobe. my ...
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 ...
i am beyond thrilled to share today's post. after admiring her designs for years, i can't believe i'm actually wearing a sonnet james dress! the sweet team at sonnet james gifted me two of their signature 'reese' dresses soon after we found out i was pregnant and i've been anxiously waiting to wear one to ...
in all honesty, i've wanted to do a capsule wardrobe forever and it looks like it only took getting pregnant to finally make it happen! though it may feel like 134967 years, pregnancy is only 40 weeks (most likely less for us since twins tend to arrive earlier than single babies) so i knew i ...
in anticipation of my upcoming maternity capsule wardrobe post (coming monday!), i wanted to showcase one of the outfits i'm excited to put on repeat this winter (weather permitting). i initially saw this skirt on one of my style crushes -shannon of @itstybitsyindulgences. funnily enough i had tried it on months before in the store ...
it feels SO good to have our big secret out in the open! a) because i was having a tough time hiding my growing bump (and boobs!) anymore and b) i have a few fun maternity purchases that i've been dying to wear and feature on the blog. today's post features the very first piece ...
