Who’s looking forward to a long weekend?!?! It’s our first one since school started, so we’re all for it! I need to give y’all a bump update, but wait no longer, if you’re curious what this pregnant mama looks like at 13 weeks, see the pictures below. The soft white button down still hides the bump, but the fitted striped shirt really shows it off.
This weekend, be sure to take advantage of all the big Labor Day Sales happening, including Nordstrom’s up to 40% off sale items. I’ve been living in my Halogen denim top (was $68, now $23.90) lately because it’s so soft and comfy. The XS still fits me fine. The BlankNYC ripped jean (was $88, now $70.40) I bought a size up (26) to accommodate my tummy and they are also really soft. If you are a little taller than me (5 feet), the lower rips would probably fit at your knees better, but I’m fine with where they hit me. And I’m all about my Yosi Samra Leopard Flat. I prefer these over other brands for fit and comfort and since they run in whole sizes, I always get a 7 (1/2 size up from my normal 6 1/2).
Here’s the Caslon crew neck long sleeve top that shows off this baby bump! I’m not surprised I’m showing so early since that’s how I was with James. But, I am trying to watch what I eat better and I’m still training 3 days a week with my trainer. Our workouts are less intense, but they’re still an hour and I’m also getting in a little cardio. I’m weighing about 112 right now, up 7 pounds from my contest.
The Military Pants are from Nordstrom, but I think they’re sold out so I found a similar pair at J. Crew- and they’re on sale. If the Nordstrom pair come back in stock, I’ll be sure to let you know because I love them! Still rocking the Yosi Samra Leopard Flat for running around in and don’t we consider leopard a neutral?! Goes with everything. I’ve gotten so much use out of this reversible tote bag my parents gave me last Christmas. I’m still flipping it around to show both the aqua and tan side.
And those plaid cotton flannel boyfriend shirts that scream Fall are marked down too 50%! These are awesome because they colors are really pretty and they have a pair of pockets in the front.
Of course, I have to keep you informed when my HWH FaveHalogen slub knit tee goes on sale! It’s currently 50% off in several colors (and stripes) and comes in regular and petite. I order regular XS and you can see below it goes with everything. It’s really the tee I reach for first if I just want a casual, relaxed look to be comfortable (but still stylish) in!
Our front porch is looking more Autum-like these days with a collection of pumpkins in various colors, shapes, and sizes. I put some of them in bushels from Michaels and…
Ah, the end of another week and the beginning of the weekend! Why does this make a stay-at-home-mom so happy? Perhaps because it means dad is home too and we…
As the closet clean-out continued, next on the hit list was an array of jewelry I never wear. Truthfully, I’m terrible at accessorizing, opting most days for diamond stud earrings…
Yay for the weekend friends! Â I’ve been looking forward to today for nine months if you know what I mean! Â Although this time it’s my little brother and his high-school…
When my friend Lauren recently asked where I shop for clothes, I realized: (1) that I haven’t shopped for clothes in a long, long time (due to being pregnant and…
Meet Megan
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!
Looking great! I finally pulled the trigger on the white shirt. I think it's going to be a great Louisiana weather layering piece. Sadly, I carelessly tossed a black pen into my aqua/cognac bag. I'm going to have to pretend it didn't happen, and carry on. Congratulations on your news!
You are just glowing momma 😉
Thanks Lauren! Finally feeling better! Have a great long weekend!
I love the Patchwork Blanket Cardigan! So cute on you!
