yay!

What?! Surprised to be on my favorite blog today. Shana inspired me a while ago to try out these overalls (which I now adore). I returned the favor by sending her a couple of pics of the outfit I put together using some of her suggestions. What a great, fun opportunity to be on her wonderful blog. Thank you!! 

OVERALLS! YEP.

I was inspired today by it being get-a-new-haircut day AND this awesome post over at Ain't No Mom Jeans (I think instigated by an email I sent her!) So... I put together an overalls outfit. Guess I was feeling brave. Don't get me wrong, I'm LOVING these overalls, but it takes a little guts to pair things with them that don't make me look like Farmer Laura, as my husband so lovingly called me the first time I put them on. Taking some of Shana's ideas and throwing in a few of my own, here's what I came up with:

I got a new haircut and highlight today, too, from the amazing Tamara at Oranj Studio. That always makes a girl feel more brave :) 

Mamas, overalls are amazing baby pooch hiders and they are a fun throw back to the 90's. You should try some, too. xoxo

fall, so far...and more on my favorite fashion blog

Ah, my favorite time of year! And with a precious nearly 5 month old, it's even better. We've been visiting my family in Arkansas for almost a month now and have been enjoying every minute. Here are some photos of the last couple of months.

Some fun photos from my brother's wedding!

This is Sienna and her cousin Evie! They are 7 weeks apart and have been having lots of fun cousin time.

This is Sienna and her other cousin, Averie. Oh. My. Goodness. The sweetness.

My best friend finally got to meet my Little Bit! Instant love.

We've had a seriously great time. Next week we are off to make the cross country drive, again. Wish us luck!

 A few months ago, while in full-fledged postpartum land, I thankfully came across this wonderful mama fashion blog, Ain't No Mom Jeans. I briefly shared about her last time. Shana is a strong, beautiful mama with a great fashion sense. She shares really doable fashion ideas for mamas (aka. things that hide the baby pooch) and the real, lovely story of her current battle with breast cancer. She is amazing. Please check out her blog. She inspired me not only to cut off some jeans, in a true homage to my 90's roots (see below), but also got me to finally bite the bullet and order these. We. Shall. See. I love them though and have been wanting some forever. See them styled here on Lucky Mag. I really think I'll live in them this winter. 

I'll attempt to add more fashion photos interspersed with baby pictures. Fall is so fun for fashion! I may have gone overboard a bit this year due to the postpartum slump, but that just means I have lots to work with :) Send your favorite fashion blogs along, too, or links to your favorite fall outfits. It's nice to have inspiration at this time in a mama's life. xoxo
