It's finally starting to feel like Fall here in the Bay Area and right before wintertime! Up until now, I haven't really been able to wear my sweaters, or if I do I'm definitely not layering. This ruffle sleeve sweater is fairly lightweight. It was also more cropped than I thought it would be. When wearing this sweater with jeans, I prefer to layer a longer sleeveless blouse underneath. I also plan on wearing it tucked into a high-waist skirt for the holidays. Most likely with this metallic skirt...just cross your fingers that in a ... Read more...
Nursing Sweater
I've found it hard to find nursing clothing that I like but have a major need for nursing appropriate clothing. This sweater from Skunkfunk SF I've had for about a year and never did I think about it as being a good nursing sweater. I mean, who does think of these things prior to being pregnant/giving birth. Honestly, it didn't even cross my mind while I was pregnant! I loved how it fit my growing belly but I wasn't able to wear it for long since I was pregnant during the summer. With little in my closet that works for nursing ... Read more...
Label For Less: Voluminous Shirred Sleeve Wrap Blouse
This voluminous shirred sleeve wrap blouse has been seen on style bloggers everywhere and for good reason. When I first saw the style online at Shopbop I couldn't help myself and needed to have one in my closet.

As I mentioned here I'm still getting used to my new postpartum body. The biggest adjustment is my large bust. This wrap blouse ... Read more...
Need Now: One Shoulder Top
It seems like shoulders have been the center of attention in the fashion industry for the last few years. First the off-the-shoulder trend, the cold shoulder trend, and now the one shoulder trend. Thankfully the first two are still going strong as I am all about them. The one shoulder top isn't new but the exaggerated one shoulder is making a major appearance this season. Here are a few one shoulder tops that I've been eyeing. I love that some of these incorporate other trends I'm loving right now like extra large ruffles and bows, ... Read more...
Gingham Wrap Blouse
Now that I've been given the ok by my doctor to start working out again I am on a mission to strengthen my abdominal muscles and slim back down. While my body is in this transition it's been a little more difficult to get dressed up. Granted most of the time I am at home wearing my PJ's. When I do leave the house, I want to get dressed up but my options are limited. My maternity jeans are definitely getting too loose but I can't yet fit back into my skinny jeans. Most of my tops don't fit me the same because my chest is significantly ... Read more...
