There's nothing like cozying up in a comfy sweater during the transitional months. The weather has been all over the place lately. It's warm for a few days, snows the next, followed by rain and cold, then warm again. Haha, I just try to go with the flow. I love how the blue and purple sequins elevate this gray sweater to anything but boring. Even the little fringe detailing outlining the sequins gives this a nice flair. I wore this out for our walk on Sunday and felt so comfortable, yet stylish. I'm wearing a size XS for reference. Another way to elevate an outfit is by adding some jewelry. I always think of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days where Matthew McConaughey says "frost yourselves." Jewelry really is the frosting on the outfit cake! This art deco bracelet and stack able rings give the casual look some added polish. I'll be talking more specifically about these pieces, and some others, in a post later this week.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! We had some amazing weather that I wish would last into the spring. It ended up being in the high 50s, which had everyone coming out of the woodwork to enjoy the outdoors. I took Ava on so many walks so she could breathe in the fresh air. We all took a nice walk at the state park on Saturday and then on Sunday my dad and I took Ava over the a nearby farm to look at the animals and get some ice cream.

Speaking of the fabulous weekend, I sported this casual chic look that is completely comfy and great for walking around. I love the layering with the chambray shirt, striped tee, and jean jacket. This striped tee from Everly is soft and floaty, perfectly skimming the body without being tight or adding any extra bulk. I had baseball on my mind when I was wearing this and cannot wait for the season to start. We have the New York Yankees AAA farm team in our area (The Rail Riders), which is a great night out in the summer. I always look forward to going and just enjoying the atmosphere, a few ball park treats, and the warm summer breeze drifting through the stadium. ~Sigh~ Summer cannot get here soon enough!

Casual Weekend

Skinny Jeans || Relaxed Striped Tee || Black Bow Sun Hat || Similar Red Bag || Mirroed Sunglasses || Similar Sandals ||

This past weekend was a busy one for me between meeting up with friends, running errands, a movie date with my dad, and taking Ava for walks to enjoy the nice weather. A nice casual outfit was perfect to get everything done while still feeling put together and comfortable. I love any outfit that incorporates stripes into it. The clean classic feeling still remains fresh and a stand by to this day. Add a pop of red with a chic hat and you've got a great outfit. I wore sandals to still have a summery feeling, but adding booties and a floppy felt hat and this would be a great fall look too!

Happy Monday everyone! Well, I have finally made it to my due date today and it looks like little Ava is still snug as a bug in my belly. Hopefully she makes her appearance soon!

I wore this casual look over the weekend when Justin and I were heading out for the night. It's a great transitional look, especially for those cool summer nights. These red strappy heels are SO comfortable! I was pleasantly surprised and could not be any happier.  Sometimes sandals can go either way with how they feel, but these were fantastic. They also fit TTS. Everything I have on is such a staple item and can be worn so many different ways. I know I'm going to be rocking this hat all throughout fall and into winter. It fits my head great without being too tight or big. Usually hats are a tad bit big for me. Hope everyone has a great start to their week!

Casual Cool

There's nothing I love more than getting dressed up for the day. I treasure my morning hours, sometimes afternoon hours when I'm feeling a bit worn out from the pregnancy!, where I can sit down and get myself primped and ready for the day ahead. Some days though call for a more relaxed and laid back feeling, but still not sacrificing any style points. I've lived in these white skinny jeans all spring and summer long. They're such a nice alternative to dark denim and really brighten up an outfit.  This beige top from Triple Thread OC feels so lightweight and comfortable for those warm summer days. I love how easily I  can move around in it and the versatility of it. While it is not specifically a pregnancy top, it is definitely very pregnancy friendly. I was never a big sneaker person either and in fact, I purposely would not wear them, opting for flats instead. Once I found the cute styles that Keds offer though, I was completely hooked. Who could pass up this pretty mint shade?!

This outfit was perfect for all of the running around I had to do yesterday along with the house work that had piled up on me. Some days I sleep for hours and have no energy and others, I cannot sleep at all and end up having tons of energy to get things done. This third trimester throws me for a loop sometimes!
