Neon Fit & Flare








sunglasses: Choies c/o (real deal)
sandals: BCBG (similar here)

Welcome to another week! Postpartum dressing is difficult, especially for church and special occasions. With nursing and still having a little bit of belly, most of my clothing fits a little weird. I can zip up my jeans but have all that loose skin hanging out on top. All you mamas know what I mean, right?  
If you notice, this dress is not nursing friendly at all. My plan was to nurse Abbie right before church and then right after we got home. It didn't work out quite like that. Right on queue, two hours after I fed her, she was up and my milk let down. Fun times!  So I had to invent new ways to feed her while keeping the dress on (thank God there was a private room in church). I will have to rethink my dress choice next Sunday ha! Do any of you have any tips for postpartum body dressing? 
Hope you are having a good day and thanks for stopping by!

There is nothing better than shift maxi dress for postpartum dressing. Honestly, I was never a fan shift dresses but right now I'm appreciating the convenience of oversized dressing.  I love all the flawing blouses, shift dresses and oversized tops. This dress was right up my ally because let's face it, the waist skirts and form fitting dresses aren't going to make appearance for a while.

Stripes All Around

Let's talk about how comfortable and amazing this dress is. I have had it for a while and loved wearing it every chance I get. It has a lining that sits on the figure so nice and doesn't cling to all the wrong places. It's very light and I love the color combo. Amazon has so many different maternity brands and I found Jules and Jim Maternity to have really good quality. Check them out!

Between Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (which will open to public on Friday July17th) and Amazon Prime Day (which is today July 15th) there are so many tempting deals! I love that Amazon and Nordstrom both have free shipping as most of the time I don't know if the stuff is going to fit me and how it's going to look in person. Especially being pregnant, I've bought (and returned) whole bunch of stuff with Amazon and Nordstrom. So if you are looking for something and not sure, it's OK to order a few sizes and than send the wrong stuff back. If you don't have Amazon Prime yet, it's totally worth investing into - add countless video and music streaming to the free shipping and returns, and it's a must. Happy Shopping!

Mint and Navy







top: Tahari via TJMaxx (similar here and here under $20!!!)
shorts: J.Crew (regular on sale!, similar)
flats: Target (DIY tassels)
bag: Amazon
necklace: Nordstrom (similar)
sunglasses: Choies (the real deal)
hat: J.Crew 
You know when you buy something and it seems like it's a bit too expensive? You do like it (more like love it), the color and the fit are just perfect. You get home and still think about returning it, then you decide to wait and see if you will find something to wear it with? And of course, you do! Then you wear it again, and by that time it's time to cut the tag off, because honestly it has the smell of your perfume all over it. Now you have to throw it in the wash and after that you wear it couple more times.
Well, that's the story of this top. At first I was on the edge about getting it but loved how it fit my belly, as well as the mint color (can it be more perfect?). I have contemplated about returning it but it's just the perfect top for this summer. It's flowy and light, long enough to cover the belly and I'm sure it's going to work after I have the baby. So, guess what? It's staying! Have you found your perfect mint top this summer?

Well hello there! Look who got dressed up again. ha! I'm in love with this stretchy jersey dress that I found in TJMaxx recently. I have three weddings to go to and bridal shower before my due date and I have lost all hope at finding something pretty to wear. Then, I found this dress! It literally makes me feel like a million bucks and that's a great thing when you are 33 weeks pregnant. If you are on look out for a great maternity dress (that will double as non maternity once you have the baby) hit up your TJMaxx - I love their selection and constant new inventory. Thank you for stopping by!

After I post this dress on Instagram, I haven't had a chance to photograph it. I have been wearing it a lot and just can't stop. It's super comfortable, it hides the imperfections (hello expanding bottom) and keeps you cool at the same time. I couldn't find exact one so I linked up a lot of similar options. We HAD gorgeous weather all last week into the weekend and now it's looking like it's time to take out those winter boots. Hope you are enjoying the weather while it lasts!
