Dress the Bump.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Maternity clothes suck! Now that that I'm an expert on the matter - you know, since I'm almost half way there - I can impart some wisdom. Skip the maternity wear, embrace stretch, and size up!


Initially, I didn't want to wear and stretch out any of my existing clothes but I'm embracing a new perspective. If I can find super affordable non-maternity wear, what's the big deal if it's stretched beyond wear post-pregnancy? Since I'm not finding great fit in maternity wear and it's so expensive, a new game plan was in order. Here are a few of my recent purchases, that I couldn't be happier with!

I've worn the black dress to several holiday parties and it's a steal for $18! I just picked up the striped ponte dress and it can easily be dressed up for a cocktail party or dressed down for work. I spotted an adorable bodycon dress on Pinterest and it led me to the brand Leith. This pink number was 40% off and I'm hoping it will work for an upcoming engagement party we're attending.

Getaway Wardrobe.

I've got a pretty big birthday coming up next month and to celebrate I have a couple of very special trips planned! The first trip on my actual birthday weekend is to Napa with the hubby. We're going to do some leisurely wine tasting and then have dinner at the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone. Can.not.wait!

The following weekend I'm going with my best girlfriends to LA for a night of dress-up and dancing. Can't wait to break out the sparkles!

My husband teases me that I like to celebrate my birthday for the whole month, and while I don't think that's true exactly, I do think a girl should be able to celebrate with all the special people in life and that's what I intend to do!

How do you like to celebrate?
