I dream of... Dressing my baby bump


As you can see, a lot has happened since touching down in Austin a year and a half ago! I fell in love and now we're expecting a baby boy in June! I am actually really enjoying my pregnancy and vow not to let it interfere with my fashion choices. Here is a collection of stylish clothing I found on the interwebs for enhancing (or at least not restricting) the big ol bump:


I love me some big floppy hats!




This dress or something similar will be perfect for my cousin's wedding next week.

For the Babymoon!


 I adore stripes! Asos has a great maternity selection. 


Versatile from winter to summer- just eliminate scarf & sweater and replace with sunglasses, sandals, & bangles

I am also planning on doing a maternity photo shoot soon. They recommend snapping the pics when you're 28-32 weeks for the best photos (and belly size.) I'm thinking of doing an ethereal/boho theme outdoors. I may even make one of my famous flower crowns for it. I'll post images as soon as I get them back, so stay tuned!

I dream of... Decorating my new ATX apartment


I've recently moved from Los Angeles to the great city of Austin, TX and I'm in love with my new place! I'm still waiting for the movers to deliver all of my furniture, so in the meantime (and to try to contain my frustrations with them in a creative outlet instead) I am channeling decor inspirations. Do I go the rustic/Southwest route like so many of my design peers seem to sway here or do I stick to my contemporary/ flea market style I've used in the past? Here are some great photos I've found:

From Bailey McCarthy's Austin home on Design Sponge
By Madison Modern Home
Emily Henderson's room on Apartment Therapy
Kiera Kushlan's D.C. living room on Design Sponge
I am definitely coveting this rug for my bedroom!
Loving this coral color especially with the turquoise pop
Cute little dining table and yellow chairs (mine are blue though)
A bar cart is a must for the new home!
Very cozy living room
I'm looking forward to scavenging around Austin for great pieces. Here is a link to the Design Sponge's Guide to Austin... it has stores, museums, and great restaurants to check out if you make it here: http://www.designsponge.com/2010/12/austin-design-guide.html

Whatever visual direction I choose to go, I know I will enjoy my new home with my lovely roommate and all of our pets (two cats and a dog!) Home Sweet Home, y'all!


I may just have to make one of these!

I dream of... Skirts

I am obsessed with these feminine bottom pieces no matter the length, color, or temperature outside! Here are some of my favorite skirted looks:




















I'll take one of each please! Which one is your favorite?
