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?

It's finally summer (even around these parts)! I can't wait to take my kiddo to the lake and enjoy some sunshine. In the meantime, we are enjoying backyard fun and trips to the zoo. In case you are one of the lucky ones with a pool, I hope you are enjoying that as well. Here is some inspiration for you and gorgeous goodies for the summer season. I'm in love with that tote and the bright pink swimsuit. The cute sandals (only $20!) have my name written all over them!

I still can't believe that this baby is going to be a girl. Honestly, I can't imagine our life with a little fashionista (because you know she will take after her mama). But at the same time, I can't wait to make her little bows and headbands, buy cutest dresses and match with her brother. 

Being 34 weeks, it's becoming harder and harder to find something to wear. I cannot wear skirts and practically live in my maternity shorts. But for special occasions, like weddings and showers, as well as church, I'm running out of ideas. Remixing my old stretchy dresses every way possible seems to be a good idea but with hotter temperatures it's harder to layer. 

This dress is a winner in my book - its light chiffon material makes me feel like I'm flying in the clouds. And the pretty sequin top makes it so much more unique - no jewelry needed. Check out more maternity (and non maternity that will work for bump) dresses below.
