    Maternity Style and a Giveaway! (CLOSED)

    Happy Tuesday! Today’s post is going to be short because I am trying really hard to update Etsy and also because… tired pregnant mom. Not gonna lie, I’m SO ready to be done being pregnant! I thrifted this skirt on Saturday because I had nothing to wear that fit for a wedding we were going to… on Saturday. Last minute, much? Sadly, I didn’t get to take any outfit pictures other than the one I posted on Instagram, but I think this skirt is destined to be something I always pair with other patterns! I already have two or three different outfits dreamed up and all of them include another…

    Maternity Style: victory rolls and a vintage clutch

    So I’ll be super honest here: I have not been feeling inspired to get dressed these days. Retro maternity style is hard to figure out, especially considering true vintage maternity style in my preferred era was… wearing a tent. And I don’t really want to wear a tent.

I didn’t leave the house yesterday, I didn’t wash my face, I didn’t put on makeup, I didn’t brush my hair, and I didn’t edit these pictures other than cropping. And, to be honest, I’m fine with that! I might look less glamorous in these…

    Flowers and mustard

    There are so many exciting things coming up right now, it’s hard to know what to start with! I’m almost full-term with pregnancy, it’s almost Christmas, I’m almost done with Dressember, it’s almost time for vacation with my in-laws… I can’t believe all of the things happening. We’ll start with Dressember: I forgot to do a roundup for last week AND the week before, and I missed one day completely (didn’t get dressed, I’ll admit!). And yes, I wear that maroon dress and those boots a LOT. Hey, when you’re this pregnant, repetition is kind of the only option sometimes! That, and it’s almost always raining or otherwise mushy and…
