I know I touched on this last week---but I really love pregnancy. I feel blessed that I've been feeling so good these last couple of months. I have a feeling I'll have a symptom pile-on in third trimester, but that's okay. I'm just trying to enjoy the experience as much as possible. I even joked with the husband that I'm not sure I can ever ...
Dress for the Evening
Last night my husband and I attended a wedding reception for his cousin. She had a beautiful wedding out in San Francisco where she and her husband live so her parents hosted a second reception at Brennan's here in Houston for friends and family who didn't attend. As I was checking out my closet, deciding what to wear, I came upon ...
Weekend Shopping & Some Outfits Lately
I had a brief work-related event to attend this morning and then I hit the village to use my GAP coupon. It was sent in the mail and gives you 40% off of a single item and 30% off of your entire purchase (including sale items) when you pay with your Visa card. Score! I picked up a few items for our sweet little girl. As I mentioned in a previous ...
23 Weeks!
I've really been enjoying pregnancy so far. Other than some brief discomfort here and there, I've been fortunate to have a fairly symptom-free and happy second trimester. Having said that, week 23 was the first time I felt like my hormones were really in overdrive. I was more emotional than usual, though some of that was definitely ...
Outfits Lately & A New Purchase
On Sunday I spent a couple of hours cleaning out and reorganizing my closet. Every spring and fall I rearrange it so that the warmer clothes are in the front for fall/winter and the cooler ones are in the front for spring/summer. It makes getting dressed easier and keeps things that are in-season easier to see. I also wanted to see if rearranging ...
Weekend Updates
This morning I met with one of my friends for a lovely brunch at Sweet Paris. I had a Bonne Mama crepe with four berry jam and a side salad with strawberries. YUM! If you are in Houston, definitely check it out. They also have crepes with eggs, meat, etc. So delicious and the decor is really nice as well (think tufted bench seating and ...
Lip Loves: L’Oreal Color Caresse Wet Shine Stain & Maybelline Color Whisper
I haven't reviewed beauty products in what seems like an eternity so I'm so excited to share a couple of products with you that I've been using recently that are deserving of a review. As you all know, my makeup routine is the exact same everyday. I use the same products and apply them the same way. The one exception to this is lip products. ...
22 weeks!
I haven't been blogging much lately. Things have been so busy at work that I'm typically pretty tired by the time I get home and ready to eat dinner, watch a couple of shows and go to bed. I love being busy at work though, so no complaints here. Even though I have four months left at work, I feel like I'm trying to get as much done as possible ...
Weekend Shopping & Baby’s Dresser Has Arrived
We had a pretty laid back Saturday, until I decided when we got home from lunch and running errands that we were going to empty out the nursery. Our day started off with our Restoration Hardware Baby & Child Haylan wide dresser and hutch being delivered (we got it for 20% off!). More on that later. Then, we went out for lunch and I ...
Stella & Dot Giveaway- Jewels for Spring!
I've always been a fan of Stella & Dot jewelry. The pieces are pretty, trendy and high-quality. Many of the pieces I have from the line are some of my most-worn and beloved pieces (you can see them in my holiday wish list post here). One my my readers, Alyssa, generously offered to host a Stella & Dot giveaway on my blog. ...
