Time to make some baby stuff for the little babe that the purple knit hat was destined for. The baby shower was on Saturday, and she got lots of fun stuff. It’s always so fun to see all the cute stuff that people pick out for the baby showers. She got a nice wide range of […]

New shirts for me and the boy
By Stacy on June 22, 2010I went shopping, which I thought would be mostly window shopping, but I ended up purchasing some skinny jeans and a knit shirt. The shirt fit well, but after a bit of soul searching and price tag gazing, I decided to take it back. I mean…I can make that for much, much, much less. *sigh* […]
This dress I made for moi. I love the styling on this dress with the contrast accents. I probably could have made this a size or two smaller, but better to go big and cinch it in than to not be able to wear it at all. It has too much fabric in the back, […]
Before I got pregnant with #1 at the ripe old age of 29, I feared what having a baby would do to my body. I watched a few of my cousins blossom from smallish sizes to plus sizes in the span of a few years upon having children. I didn’t want that to happen to […]
My outfit today, in which I was happy to get several compliments. That is always a fun thing and makes you feel good. 🙂 Sweater – Express Shirt: Anne Taylor Loft Skirt: Me 🙂 Shoes: Steve Madden
My aunt: You sure look good! You did a great job at losing the weight after you had kids. How do you do it? Me: Lots and lots of salads. My aunt: Oh. There is no magic metabolism pill once you reach a certain age. It is work. It sucks that you can’t eat like […]
This outfit was for a girl’s night out in a casual Italian eatery. I tend to overdress, but I rarely get to dress up fun anymore. I’m fine with the looks of “Why is she wearing THAT here??”. It’s the only time I get to have a little self expression with fun dressing. There is […]
I finally took the plunge and bought a pair of skinny jeans. Luckily I think I possess a body that lends itself well to skinny jeans. I have skinny legs and no butt, so I don’t look too out of proportion in them. They will also look awesome with my edgier shoes now and boots […]
Hey girls. Girls of the 80’s to be specific. Are we still “girls”?? Well, whatever. Have you noticed all the 80’s crap…errr “fashion” that is coming out again. Are you not APPALLED? Wasn’t once enough for that decade?? Let’s see if we can tick off the horrendousness, shall we: Gold lamé stirrup pants Parachute/Harem Pants […]
Hard to believe, but the first year of school is done today, which seems pretty late. It is due to all those random days off they take during the year. I KNOW we didn’t have all those days off and we were usually out a few days after Memorial Day. Kailan has really seemed to enjoy […]
