Colorful Kate

I'm loving all of the bright colors at Kate Spade. How can you look at these bright, shiny pieces and not smile? love love love.

Set Sail!

After a long break from here, I'm back. I now have a cuter than imaginable little 11 week boy that goes perfectly with my turquoise heels...he other the other hand may not share my love of shoes...I can't even keep socks on those pudgy feet, let alone the adorable knit slippers from Baby Gap. Ah well.... He and I are flying to the east coast in an week and a half for some fun family time on the cape. We are both very excited to pack our favorite nautical wear. This dress would be perfect for a leisurely jaunt on a giant sailboat...available here.

Comfort. Shoes.

I think that in my head 'comfort shoes' are anything that isn't a high heel, or, well, nice to look at. However, being 9 months pregnant and still keeping up my daily walks, I've realized that a flat flip flop is not going to cut it. So I got myself over to the comfort shoe store near my house and found these lovelies. And apparently I'm late to get on the 'grannie' band wagon. They had an article taped up from NY daily news about how everyone is wearing these now... in fact, these ones above are available at Urban Outfitters (?!) I bought a black pair of the German Worishofers and my feet are so happy that I called up my little store and ordered them in red as well. I figure buy shoes now before I'm too busy changing diapers and not sleeping. So even if I look like an elephant with swollen ankles and wider feet, I'm at the point where I don't care because my feet are so flipping comfortable. Love.

The Bigger, the Better

I keep seeing beautiful skirts and dresses ready for spring that unfortunately belong on people who have waists. Seeing as mine is gone for now and will be getting even bigger in the next 3 months, I can simply stare longingly. However there are some things that one needs and maternity shops are not cutting it for me. Enter Forever 21. Clothes that are cheap enough for now only, but also fun, and, luckily for me, swing-y and A-line. I love these 2 coats which I would (and will) wear after the wee one arrives. My winter coat was getting too close for comfort, but these coats are perfect and have even more room for me to grow. Plus my crush on 3/4 length sleeves and long gloves can be united. Love.

Bags and Bags

I'm falling in love with too many of the bags at Anthropologie. It's been a bit cold here lately, so a charge of color would be a nice pick me up. I'm also looking at each bag with new eyes...perhaps it would work as a diaper bag, so maybe I need it?? hmm....
