What Am I Wearing? Budget Edition!




I alway LOVE seeing what other people are wearing. Pleated Poppy does a post every Wednesday with pictures of herself and what she has been wearing all week! I love to tune in to what others are wearing. Lets get real, we all love to see and hear what others are doing in their lives. So I thought I would share what I am wearing today. Riley has a cold (whats new!) and my brother wants to come watch a movie with her (he has the day off). Have I mentioned that my brother is an amazing uncle? Well, he is! Anyway, so I am just going to have a lunch date with my two boys. These are purchases I got when I went shopping the other day. I don't think I did a post on this, but a couple of weeks back one of the Salvation Armys had all their jeans on sale for $1.00. Lets just say I bought 14 pairs. Lets just say this was a very exciting day for me! I am really trying to dress comfy but cute. It's possible right?!?! With a newborn at home, it must be possible! ENJOY!
P.S. I couldn't get a very good full length picture, we don't own a full length mirror except for Rileys vanity

Fall, Just the Word Makes Me Giddy!
















Fall is by far my favorite time of year. Actually, any time it's cold I love it! I was reminded this morning as I browsed my closet that I am in definate need of some new clothing for fall and winter. In 2007, I was pregnant with Riley, in 2008 I was trying to lose the baby weight. In 2009, I got pregnant with Avery, and now in 2010, I am trying to lose the baby weight once and for all (more on that later)! I have found that cardigans that drape to the side tend to look the best on me. I carry most of my weight on the bottom half and on my kids. The caridgan is the best for this body type, but you have to be careful, because you don't want to look like you are trying to cover it up too much. That will actually make you look bigger! As I browsed Forever 21 and Anthropologie I was reminded, I am still a sucker for feminine detail and ruffles, lots of ruffles! Although, Forever 21 is more my price range and Anthro is just for inspiration! Oh....and the head wrap is right up my alley and for $4.50, how can you go wrong?!
