Pinstripes, Plaid, & Polka Dots

















vest-J.Crew(similar here), shirt-Anthropologie(similar here), leggings/sneakers-Old Navy(more sneakers here), necklace-Gifted via Lucky Feather

 Technically, this plaid tunic is a "sleep shirt" as I found it on the "Sleep & Loungewear" section of Antho's site. (And yes I just abbreviated Anthropologie to Antho, you're welcome). And while I'd normally don a plaid, long-sleeved tunic for fall, it's soft fabric and washed-out palette are giving me a very comfy spring vibe, and work/look great with these maternity leggings, dotted slip-ons, and my go-to pocketed puffy vest(another fall staple that has seen quite a bit of action here this spring). Speaking of pockets, this shirt has them!!!! Plus it's quite flattering with my bump and I expect it to remain so after baby. PLUS plus, it buttons down the front, so I have high hopes that this will also be nursing-friendly and long enough to just wear sans pants around the house this summer. 


As I noted above, I've been wearing this vest quite a bit here recently, last seen here:
At 7 months I could still zip it up! 

Yeah... not so much anymore....


I've got less than 5 weeks to go until baby is due to arrive!

Annie Lennox Realness!

Love the tuxedo detail of these cropped pants. coat/pants-Jcrew(similar here and here ), blazer-Zara(similar here ), shirt-Asos(sort of similar here ), shoes-DSW(really cool here ), gloves-Brian Atwood for Neiman Marcus/Target(more gloves here ), sunglasses-Banana Republic(similar here ) I'm feeling very Annie Lennox circa Eurythmics in this outfit, eh? Most times wearing a coat is a necessity, not necessarily an intricate part of the outfit, but here it really makes the look. And even though the blazer is covered up the hints of it, almost like a lining, work break up an all grey/white look.  And now for your viewing pleasure  Sweet Dreams:   Have a great weekend!

Hamptons-Poolside-Chic meets Sue Ellen Ewing Early '80's Realness

Okay, this post title is ridiculous I know, BUT come on, it's accurate am I right? blouse- JOA via Le Tote , necklace/bracelet- Le Tote , trousers- Zara , belt-J.Crew,(similar here ) wedges- Sole Society These pleated drapey pants scream early 80's glamour. Paired with this sailor-suit-esque blouse I was definitely ready for a seaside cocktail party, right? This outfit also called to mind the elegance of early 80's  Dallas .  It has been my experience that as a child of the 80's one's house was either in the Dallas camp or the Dynasty camp. We were a Dallas household for sures. So, one of my earliest style influences was Sue Ellen Ewing . Despite the pills, the booze, the philandering husband, and lost potential of a life on her own terms Miss Sue Ellen kept it quite fierce especially in the early years of the show.  Here she is serving up sternum-baring chic!  I tried to watch the reboot of the series on TNT, but I just couldn...

Cowboy Boots & Floral Skirts

Western wear has seen a resurgence here with the Cowboy Carter of it all, among other influences. I'm not one for cowgirl cosplay, but I do enjoy a good boot. Here I've styled by western boots with a mixed print autumnal outfit.  Blazer-- Luciano Barbera via Threadflip(now defunct), henley-Gap(similar here ), shirt-Uniqlo(similar here ), skirt- Amazon , boots-Coconuts via DSW(similar here ), necklace/bracelet- Slide Jewelry , ring/necklace-Ana Luisa(similar here and here ) I last featured these boots in a spring/summer look here . And I styled them with this same skirt back in April here . While this top is part of a "matching set" featured here  I'm doing the classic styling hack of "breaking it up" and the olive green coordinates with the skirt. You can watch my reel of the cinching drawstring features of this shirt here .  Again I'm wearing the promotional Slide Jewelry set. Here's a referral link to also become an ambassador for discounts ...
