Working Mama Blues

You ever sleep so hard that you wake up and you don't know

where you are or even who you are? That's a really weird experience

 made even weirder if you have a baby, you wake up to a baby crying

and your like wait who am I? where am I? I HAVE A BABY? 

Then it all comes back to you and your heart slows down again that's kind of what going back to work from maternity leave is like. It's like your hit in the face with all this work you have to do and every once in awhile your hit with grief because your away from your baby and you

haven't had time to think about it in the last 1-30 minutes and its like WHAM you have a baby that you miss more than anything!

The good news is it gets way easier just like everything with time it becomes routine and that grief turns to a more bearable longing :)

So any mamas out there going through this, you will get through it and it will get better, your doing great! ( I hated hearing that too with my first one, but the good new is its so so true!)

Go to Look for Life

So this look right here is my spirit animal, if I had one look to wear forever it would be this outfit. It would be this comfy sweater because I am one of those people that is always cold even when its 117 degrees outside and these comfy highwaist jeans and that's pretty much all I need; cash me outside homie because I am good to go.
What about you guys if you could only wear one look for the rest of your life what would it be?

Valentine's Day Outfit Ideas | Red Lace Dresses

Happy hump day Guys!
Today I wanted to share with you a little valentines outfit inspo. I love a good red lace dress and this one is actually going to do double duty, since I wore it for Christmas and I'm planning to break it back out for valentines day (if we venture out, I have to admit I hate the crowds on v-day and more often than not we opt to stay home and the hubby cooks. WIN WIN WIN)

Houndstooth Lovah

Happy Tuesday Loves!

I have a little confession for you.

I have a slight obsession with houndstooth fabric! I don't know what it is about black and white almost checkered patterns I just love 'em love'em love 'em. So prepare yourself because your going to get real sick of seeing this stinking coat because I just love it! And it was under 50$ so budget friendly if you want to get it and love on it too!

Happy Monday Loves!

It is a really happy one for me indeed because I am writing this post from my bed because we havin' a SNOW DAY!  Which honestly I can't be more thankful for right now because today was supposed to be my first day back to work after maternity leave. Having another day home with my boys has been an absolute Godsend!

On to why you all are here my outfit details!

This skirt is a piece I love LOVE because its one of those edgy military skirts that can add the perfect amount of drama and a pinch of masculinity to any outfit. I paired it with this gorgeous belle sleeve top and I have to say this outfit would have cheered me up even if I would have had to go to work today, but I dont :)!

3 Winter White Coats You Need to See Now

My favorite part about living where it gets cold in the winter is nothing, (it was -30 degrees here earlier this week ya'all!) but my second favorite part about it is having a good excuse to own a lot of really great coats.

This coat is one of my favorites! I picked it up when it was over 50% off a few years ago and it still is one of my favorite winter coats for nicer occasions, what can I say I am a sucker for a great winter white piece and this one definitely fits that bill! It's sold out but I have my top three other picks for great winter white coats 

Love this Coat here under 100$

This shag coat is amazing and under 50$

And if your looking to splurge I love this coat

Happy Saturday loves!

I have to jet out real soon! But I wanted to get a quick date night post up for you all!

This little orange dress is the gift that keeps on giving! It's the perfect material that acts like shape wear but looks like jersey cotton, and I usually only rock it in the summer, but like I talked about in my last post lately I'm all about finding practical ways to wear those summer favorites in the winter. 

As for this blazer I pretty much can't stop won't stop wearing it so sorry if you all are sick of it, but if not then stick around because I have it styled in a different way for another upcoming post :)
