I'm back!

So sorry to keep everyone waiting. A lot has happened in the last few months, and I have to say, my fashion journey has gone out the window while I work on myself first. I'm nearly 30 days into Power 90, and I feel great. That's actually why I'm up this morning - although feeling great isn't happening because I've been pretty sick for 3 days. I'm also super addicted to Pinterest now, and that's the other reason I'm up right now. I'm about to whip up a blueberry breakfast cake, do my workout while it's baking, and then sit back with some hot cocoa an enjoy the snow. Weather is calling for 3-6 inches and my older daughter is thrilled! I am secretly too - this is the reason we moved back east!
So I'm going to see if this pinterest pin is worthy - talk to you soon!

Sky High!

So today, as with every Sunday, I stare at my closet of "Sunday's Best" and reminisce about the days when I didn't have to figure out how to pull my boobs out of a dress.  In my case, it my be easier than those of you with smaller ones, since anything low cut I'm pretty much falling out of it anyway.  Yes, I know.  I'm a size 6 on a 5'1'' frame with a "nice rack".  That I hate because my arms are shorter than most people and all the stuff I want to do my boobs get in the way.  Ok, rant over. Here's what I finally went with:

I actually spent time on my hair and makeup today, so didn't really have time to accessorize.  This dress has a cowl neck and it's stretchy so I can pull it down to feed.  Dress is White House Black Market (on sale for $40 from $160 - SCORE), sky-high pumps are BCBG.  Yes, I wore 4" heels to meeting because it's only a few hours long and I don't stand a lot.  Word to the wise: if you have a fussy  baby, don't wear sky-high heels!  Remember that you will be up and walking around to settle them.  Oh yeah, I definitely regret all the walking I did while pregnant, it is definitely my baby's preferred method of soothing!  Do you also see that I managed to style my baby today too?  All pink and frilly!  Here is my hair:


I saw an actress with her hair like this and I really like it because it solves the issue of having to wear an entire thing of bobby pins in the back of your head when trying to pull off a side 'do.  Must look pretty nice, as several people came up giving me compliments on it!  Talk to you later in the week!
