Fashion Friday – My attempts to looks classy while being pregnant

Categories:

Fashion

Happy Friday!

Lots going on today — meetings all morning at work, and leaving around 2:00 for Tracy’s rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Then later tonight I’m headed to a family party to celebrate the birth of my new cousin! I can’t wait to meet him and see the rest of my fam ;)

Before I scurry off and head into the day, let’s share some fashion pics!

In the mix:

I’m lucky that I have so many wonderful skirts, because for the most part, I can just pull them up over my bump and I’m good to go!

If I could wear these Zella shirts every day of my life, I would. I’m going to try and find them in EVERY color! They are actually an “active wear”/workout shirt, but they are so stretchy and versatile, the make the perfect pregnancy shirt! I love you, Zella ;)

This is what I’m wearing to the rehearsal today. I’ll tell ya what, it is HARD to look nice and polished when you have a baby in your belly! I hope I manage to look somewhat presentable ;)

Have a wonderful day! What are you all up to this weekend?

Thankful Thursday – Weddings, peaches and cake (lots of cake)

Cooler weather! I’m loving the fact that it’s been feeling like FALL!

The perfect b-day gift I found for the Mister

Celebrating new begininngs at my best friend’s wedding this weekend

Did you read any fitness articles this month that are worth sharing? Any personal fitness news to share that we can all give you mad props for?I’ll start: This week I am proud of the fact that I’ve gone on a power walk every day. Tonight I plan on doing an arm and shoulder weight training workout that’ll surely make me sore (it’s adapted from P90x!). What about you? What fitness goals have you acheived this week?
