Welcome to the weekend friends! Our weekend plans include a Saturday morning soccer game, kid birthday party and the in-laws are in town! Busy, busy as these fall days tend to be! What are you up to? I’ve made some progress on the design plans for our son’s bedroom closet and I’ll show you next week! If you haven’t entered to win a $5,000 custom closet of your own, you can do so here. The winner will be announced on Monday! Hope it’s you!!
weekend steals & deals
Can we start off with this perfect black and white plaid poncho that’s only $38?! It’s soft and lightweight, so it’s not too heavy and the fringe detail at the end is super cute. This will be one of those things I’m wearing throughout this fall and winter as this belly grows! This plaid poncho and the Bobeau Long Cardigan (45% off now) for sure.
I’m 17 weeks pregnant on Monday and I went ahead and bought a few pair of maternity jeans last weekend. I’ll definitely be sharing those with you in a separate post soon. Maternity pants are just so much more comfortable that even trying them on in the dressing room made me breathe easier!
The pair I’m wearing in the photo below are GAP black maternity jeggings (on sale $39.99) with just a little elastic inset panel on the side of the waist band. I don’t remember those kind of maternity jeans when I was pregnant 5 years ago. I like them because they give you extra room, but without the full panel in case you’re not quite ready for that. You can see them better in this post where they’re not as covered up by the poncho.
If you’re dying to wear a cardigan or poncho and it’s just too dang hot (I get it!), check out this adorable sleeveless cardigan. 40% off (now $34.80) If I had to choose one, I think I’m leaning toward the one with the red.
I noticed my zip sweater is on sale now too! ($78, $46.80)
This tunic zip top is perfect with the V and you can raise or lower the zipper to your taste. You could unzip more and layer a thin tank or cami underneath for more interest or pattern. It’s also got slits on the side and the back covers your rear!
I love, love, love a slouchy knit sweater for cool fall days, cozying up with a latte. One of each please!!
This cute off-the-shoulder top has been super marked down too, from $34 to $20.40 and I remember it selling out before many of you could scoop it up last time, so I wanted to share it again.
I’m loving some of the Old Navy scarves too! This light pink and yellow plaid is girlie perfection! (on sale $12). In fact, their entire store is on sale now, up to 40% off. Same with LOFT this weekend!

I love that poncho, and I love even more that wearing things resembling blankets is acceptable now 🙂
