{What Mama Wore: Seeing Stars}



I am all about an effortless summer dress. One that can take you from appointments to the market and straight to dinner is a mama MUST.






And just in case you missed my post on Instagram, here is one of my sweet girl loving on mamas BUMP! Sometimes we get lucky enough to have dreams come true. We are pregnant with bebe number two!

And this girl right here is going to be one incredible big sister. She is forever feeding me bites, "it will go in your belly and feed the baby", singing to the baby and giving the baby "a hug and besos". I am so so so excited about this next chapter with two (!!!!!) babes.



Dress // Sandals (Soludos slingbacks & I can't find them but love these) // Bag // Similar TB Bangle // Shades

Don't mind Zoe's, straight from the pool to nap hair! It has been an insanely tough first trimester and even now at almost 16 weeks and on meds I am still not 100% which explains the lack of posts but hoping we've found the right mix of meds/homeopathic solutions (helloooo these morning sickness drops from my friends at Healthy Mama are life savers) and on the road to having some sense of normalcy. More on that later, for now. We are so so excited. Over the moon that through all the bumps in the road we are here, with a growing babe in my belly.

Thanks to family and close friends for bringing dinners, prenatal goodies, entertaining Zoe and most of all letting me speak my anxious scared mind. You guys are the only reason we have survived this far!

Oh and the complete strangers passing paper towels at Target bathrooms.... grabbing mints from her bag and gigling profusely when Zoe announces "my mama's tongue is just a little bit spicy" which is what she announced every time I'd vomit. Ha! Thank you too!

Hope you guys are ready to come along for the ride!

{What Mama Wore: Party on Top}


Finally getting back to regular posting over her! First up, another date night look.

An outfit where I actually felt sexy and less like a frumpy mama. It was totally the top. I love a top that can completely change a pair of plain denim ( boyfriend ones in this case!) but can also be worn with some leather leggings or a cute pencil skirt. Invest in a solid color that you love on yourself and you will wear it over and over.










Top // Wedges // Cuff // LV Crossbody Clutch (borrowed from my sis) Swooning over this one// Celine Sunglasses // Rag & Bone BF Jeans // Miu Miu Wedges //

I bought this top a while back and hadn't worn it, I want to say it was because I needed to sew it up a bit in the front to keep the ladies in but mainly because it got lost in my sea of black tops... Honestly, I counter 28. 28 black tops!!!! Who does that?

It is the perfect date night top, I did run back up and throw on a black tank underneath. Anything cinched at the natural waist makes me happy (who doesn't like to look a bit thinner?!?) and the Miu Miu wedges were a splurge to myself for a wedding we attended a couple weeks back and I can't tell you how much I love them. The perfect summer shoe.

Here are a few other tops perfect to spice up your fav pair denim or better yet cutoffs.

And these wedges to make your legs look miles long.

Now go, throw the perfect top and wedges on, maybe even some lipstick if you are feeling adventurous and get your date night on.

Hope you are all enjoying a fabulous weekend.

{What Mama Wore: From Day to Night}











old Madewell collarless denim shirt (similar) // AG Crop Flare Denim // Sam Edleman Wedges (similar) // Vintage Clutch (similar) // Sundry striped shirt //

I got an email about wanting more ideas for from day to night looks and this is a perfect look. This chambray on denim look is the perfect example. Swap out the wedges for chucks and clutch for my over stuffed tote and you have exactly what I wore all day. And easily updated for dinner with the hubs. I can't get enough of the cropped/flared denim is my favorite right now and when you score a pair of high-waisted ones, you are immediately winning....

Lesson here, a swap of shoes for no time to change is going to make a world of a difference. I prefer anything with a heel for any time that I don't have to tote a babe on my hip, wedge is perfect for summer. Not feeling a heel after a long day of toddler wrangling? No worries, check out some of my favorites below.

Cheers to all the date nights and outfits that make it to the playground and all the way to dinner!
