Baby on board means I get to be the designated driver! Woo hoo! But we would probably Uber if we end up going out anyway.

Just popping in to share a progress picture I snapped today- 10 weeks out from my bikini contest. I am seeing good progress, but I also am standing tall and…
One more week will be 6 weeks of clean eating and training 5 days a week (heavy weights) and at least 4 days of cardio (20 minutes). I’m confident that you…
On Monday, I introduced you to Maggie, otherwise known as my BFF, and shared her absolutely killer physique and eating regimen. She works hard to stay in shape, and today,…
Okay guys, I finally finished the Live Fit 12 Week Trainer and got a pic snapped! The picture on the left is me at Week 2 and the picture on…
In years’ past, I’ve sometimes struggled at the last minute (haaate that!) with selecting a perfect gift for someone, so this year I’ve put together a little Holiday Gift Guide…
How’s your week going friends? I’m just over here counting down the days ’til the 2017 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale like a kid at Christmas! It’s so close, opening this Thursday for cardholders. ??I got a friendly letter in the mail letting me know they upped my limit just in time for the sale- #thankyouverymuch! We’ll keep this little detail to ourselves and not bother the hubby with that tidbit of info! 😉 Are you excited?!?! Of course, I’ll be sharing my picks on Thursday and then a big ‘ole dressing room round up on Friday with fit tips and recommendations. Let me know what you have questions about and I’ll do my best investigative journalism for ya!
1. Cold Shoulder Dress $118 $50
This swingy striped! cold shoulder dress is perfect for daytime or evenings out. Love the simplicity of it and the drapey fabric. Such a steal at right under $50! For a daytime look, you could wear it with the #10 sandals (they have lots of colors) & for evening, these black open toe heeled sandals would be great.
2. Statement Ring $50 $20
Show off your summer mani with this gorgeous, chic statement ring! I like to wear it on my first or middle finger on my right hand with a bold bracelet.
3. Crystal & Enamel Hinged Bangle $48 $41
This simple bangle bracelet is the perfect layering piece to your watch or with a stack of other bracelets, or worn simply alone.
4. Blue Maxi Dress $52 $39
I’m sure you’ve heard me rave about this maxi dress before. Every time I wear it, I get tons of compliments and it’s really flattering and comfortable. It’s on sale under $40! I wear XS.
5. Peacock Iphone Case $50 $25
How cute is this peacock phone case?! Your mirror selfies will be so much cuter with this little guy peeking out in them!
6. Zella High Waist Crop Leggings $65 $43
High waist leggings will be your BFF, I swear! They keep you all nice and tucked in and make you feel great while working out. Zella quality is always superb, and this pair comes in three colors with criss-cross detail at the calf. They run TTS, I wear size XS.
7. Z 6 Ruched Tee $32 $16
Although I normally wear a tank to workout, this Zella tee is my go-to when I want a t-shirt. The seams in the shirt are perfectly placed to help the illusion of a smaller waist and I like the cut of the sleeves that don’t irritate me when I’m working out.
8. Faux Leather Saddle Bag $79 $53
This crossbody bag is the prettiest light and navy blue combo. It’s also a good size, so it will hold all your necessities and then some.
9. Striped Tank $19 $11
My go-to tank, $11!!! I think I need to stock up on the other colors. It’s perfect for wearing alone or layering under cardigans or other tops. It fits TTS, XS here.
10. GiGi Sandals $60 $42
I have the older version of these sandals and they are really good! They come in tons of colors and the “beige leather” has a snakeskin pattern that goes with everything. Sam Edelman makes quality shoes that last, so I highly recommend them!
Hi! I’m Megan, mom to a thoughtful teenager and spunky young girl. We call Houston home and recently moved into our dream home. I traded my lawyer hat to become a full-time blogger in 2010. I love sharing my passion for affordable fashion, home decor, organization, & fitness to help inspire you to take care of you!
You are too cute. Great photos.
Thanks Chantel, we had fun with these photos. 🙂
Omg-this is out of control. How many pics do we need to see of one dress?? I think you need to change the name of your blog to Honey We're Shopping. It's just lists of crap to buy which you make money on. And when you post so much if it, nothing seems special.
Aw, sorry you didn't like, especially since I so enjoyed taking these pics and celebrating a "fancy" baby bump. Best wishes to you for a wonderful new year.
I love the genuine excitement of you and your family for your new little one. It is evident in your pictures, blog posts and all of the loving preparation done in anticipation. I was far from stylish during my pregnancy and I think you look adorable. Clearly, some people need to focus on kindness in the new year. If they don't like what you post, there are thousands of other blogs out there.
So sweet Ashley. After I read that comment above I felt like, yeah, I guess it was photo overload. I appreciate your comment, nice to hear a positive response. Only 10 weeks to go now!! 🙂
For the rest of us that enjoy your pictures…"keep em' coming Megan. Ignore the downers we love your blog.
That is a great dress! Could you tell me where your booties are from? I have been looking for some like that and have yet to find some I really like!
My booties are old, but the "kourtney" booties at Nordstrom are very similar- I'll see if I can find them and provide a link.
Thank you!
These are such cute pictures! I absolutely love your outfit!

Thanks so much, 11 weeks to go! Merry Christmas to you!
Your baby girl will love seeing these someday and seeing how glammed up mommy is! You should put all if the pregnancy fashion pictures in a photo book for her. So special. Look look beautiful and have inspired me to wear red lipstick lol it's been a week and I'm getting use to it. So are my kids!
I never thought of that, good idea! I'd never do that with my pregnancy pics with my son- so terrible and bc of that I hardly took any pics anyway! 😉 Good to hear you're trying red- it took me a while to get used to also, now I feel a little naked wo color on my lips!
Love the last few the most! Such a fun photo idea. Happy holidays!
Thanks Allison! Wishing you the best 2016!
