Chilly Weather Wears

Hey guys! Happy Valentine's Day! :) Is it just me, or does Valentines Day and the chilly weather make you want to cuddle up into a cozy ball too? This sweater dress is so comfortable and exactly what I want to wear on cozy, cool days. I paired it with leggings here, but as the weather gets a little warmer I will also just wear it with just flats.

This sweater (from Pinks Boutique) is warm and thick and goes perfectly with a hot chocolate and a fuzzy blanket by the fire! I love throwing this on when I want to be really casual and comfortable but still look cute. And these leggings from Shop Blume go up higher than most and kinda help tuck it all in! LOL Every mom needs leggings like that, right?!

My hubby got me these wedge Sorel boots for Christmas and I just love them! They truly are sooo comfortable! I was a little worried about wearing a wedge while carrying around a baby, but I feel very stable and secure walking in these. Seriously, so comfortable. And cute! I always pair them with leggings and tuck the leggings inside to keep my legs warm (sometimes feeling the cool air on my legs in winter months drives me nuts! I just want to be covered and warm!).

I love these tassel earrings. I wanted them for so long and finally pulled the trigger on these beauties. I love when I get to wear fun earrings and big necklaces on date night (I can't wear them with Blakely right now, she'll pull them right out of my ears!). These shades were a steal at Express! I love when they have major deals on their accessories. I never feel guilty getting things I don't really need when they are on major clearance. I got these and another pair for $5! BONUS.

This clutch is a go-to for date night. I love this gold color but Denver Street Boutique has many colors and patterns in this same clutch and I always stand there staring for a good 10 minutes before I can decide which one I want. HA! I just love all colors and... well, everything! LOL But this gold clutch is one I always reach for.

Hope you guys are having a great day! And let's hope the cold weather won't last too much longer. I can't wait to feel spring in the air.

Cowl neck + POPS of color

Hey guys! I love this outfit so much! The pop of turquoise, gold, maroon... heaven. So much of what I'm wearing is from local boutiques. I told you I love these comfy jeans! Can't get enough of them. Seriously everything about this outfit is easy and comfortable but you can always trade the heels for flats and switch out the clutch for a diaper bag if you're headed out with the kiddos. 

This cowl neck sweater is so comfortable and thin. I tend to be HOT when I'm nursing and have a hard time wearing thick sweaters because I can't cool down. So I'm loving that this is thin and cooler for me to wear in winter months. Hope you guys are having a great week so far!

Shop Denver

This is one of the comfiest outfits! I recently went by Fabrik (I can't allow myself to go there very often because I want everything!) and got this shirt. You guys have to feel it. It's amazingly soft! It's so comfortable and long enough to pair with leggings. This boutique is awesome. It isn't crammed like a lot of boutiques can be. What's so amazing to me is that they remember me! Not only me, but my kids!! I walk in, they remember Ryder's name and give him stickers which is adorable and so amazing of them. Who doesn't love it when people Ooo and AAhhh over their kids?! I'm always so impressed by the wonderful women who work there. 

This necklace is a new fav. As I like to say, turquoise is my love language. ;) I love everything about this necklace! I got it from Denver Street Boutique and it is made locally here in Denver. This coffee mug is another local company that makes the best stuff! I've been taking this cute tumbler from Aspen Lane everywhere because it's adorable and also, moms need coffee. We go together like mac n cheese... Am I right?! Most of the time, it's survival mode and having a cute coffee mug brings a little bit of happiness to my very early mornings! (PS: Aspen Lane also sells adorable custom pillows, baby blankets, etc. All great gift ideas.) 

This clutch always grabs my eye. I really dig it and it comes in other colors as well. I love that it isn't super bulky so I can throw it in a bigger bag, if necessary, or wear it as a cross-body bag (chain included). And who doesn't love a fab nude heel? I have an obsession with nude shoes of all kinds. The shoe I'm wearing is a copy of Valentino's. It is much cheaper and equally adorable. I love this heel so much with the T strap.  I got them in two colors! They are the perfect height.   They never force me to walk like my feet are strapped in a torture chamber. I get really nervous carrying babies while wearing heels that are too high, but this height is very comfortable. 

I gravitate to this Tory Burch wrap bracelet because it goes with everything! I can easily dress it up or down and this tan color matches anything I put on. Of course I have to mention my diamonds from Hadley's House of Diamonds. They can make you anything you want! In any price range. You truly feel like royalty when you shop there. Who doesn't love that?! If you're looking to upgrade your wedding ring, simple diamond studs, simple dainty necklaces, anniversary gifts, etc. They can do it all and I promise you will not be disappointed! If you're interested in designing something (or buying something they carry) I'd love to work with you to create the perfect piece!

And these jeans! Easily my new favorite distressed denim. Again, so soft and stretchy. I love the ultra distressed look and another bonus: They aren't super long! I have short legs and always need to get my pants hemmed. Well, I should get my pants hemmed. But most of the time I am too lazy to take the extra step and skip the hemming process. Leaving me with way too much fabric to roll up at the bottom! But these are perfect. Even if you have longer legs, I think jeans look cute when they show a little skin/ankle. 

This whole outfit can be easily worn day or night by changing just a few things. Swap out the heels for some Converse, Uggs or flip flops and you're ready to chase after your kids! So easy to take off the necklace so you can baby-wear and throw the rest of my hair into a messy pony to get it out of the way. And like I mentioned above, this clutch is small enough to throw into my diaper bag or a larger tote that I always have with me when I'm running around with kids. 

Dressing Blake might be my number 1 hobby these days. HA! I just love these bows from Splendid and those leopard moccs? I die. Adorable! Also, her rolled up chambray. HA! I love it. And her chubby wrist. She just woke up before taking these pictures and I don't think she was quite ready for her glamour shots yet. ;) Sweet girl. I love her OH SO MUCH! Her arm around that flamingo?! Stop it. Just too much cuteness!! And Ryder's not in these pics because he hates it and has way more fun running around playing on the "slippery" snow. I try not to torture him with pictures more than necessary. LOL!

Fur Vest + Patterned Dress

Gotta bust out these short dresses while we still can! This cooler weather feels so good and I love pairing shorter dresses with vests for the fall. This dress is very comfortable and so cute! I've been loving mixing patterns recently and love this fur vest with the patterned dress. These heels are new and so fun. Just a little twist on the classic nude heel. I love nude shoes! 

Hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween yesterday! I can't wait to go through all our pictures and post about our trick or treating adventures. So much fun reliving these fun holidays with babies! 

Dang it. The nude heel is sold out! But this red color would be fun over the holidays!

Printed Denim

Happy Saturday! Is it sweater weather in CO yet?? I can't wait for cooler temps! This date night outfit is so comfortable and easy! These floral printed jeans are really old from Forever 21, but I'll link similar ones. I always get compliments on these jeans. I think just because they're different and fun. And I love these booties! I love open heel and/or open toe booties. Cutest. This bag is a copy of a really expensive bag I wanted and I love it! I really dig cross body bags (or all sizes!). Have I mentioned I'm a bag hoarder? Oops! :) :)

Maternity + Nursing Dress

I have been living in this black dress! It's so comfortable, you guys. I seriously feel like I'm in a comfy robe when I'm wearing it. The bonus about this dress is that it doubles as a nursing dress. I know this dress will get a LOT of use after the baby comes. I really struggled with what to wear and feeling like I didn't have a lot of options when Ryder was born when it came to clothing and nursing in public. This dress is super stretchy and allows easy access to nurse in public without all the fuss. I'm so excited to have some pieces that truly work for being majorly pregnant AND nursing. Double bonus (insert high five)!

Speaking of nursing... I am so nervous about how I'm going to balance the full-time job that nursing is with a toddler. Friends have told me that I'll learn to multi-task and nurse while she's in a carrier on me. What?! I know this will need to be a talent I learn. But I'm seriously concerned! LOL I have the Moby carrier, which I used twice when Ryder was little. I felt SO hot when I wore it. And all that fabric! Ugh! It just wasn't my thing. If I needed Ryder to be on me in a carrier, I preferred my LilleBaby Carrier. It was just more structured and I didn't have to think about how to put it on and what piece of fabric went where... I just snapped it on! But I'm thinking it will be hard to nurse her while she's in this carrier because it is more structured. Any tips for balancing nursing 24-7 with a toddler are greatly appreciated!! How to strap her on me so she's comfy while eating, how to distract Ryder while I'm feeding her, etc.

Anyway... I wore this dress out at a concert this past week and felt so comfortable. I stuck with some of my most comfy flip flops and an easy bag. BAM. Done. Easy. It was a hot night (the concert was outdoors at Coors Field) and I love having flowy clothes on (as apposed to tight, thick clothing that just seems to trap the heat even more!). Because everything seemed simple and plain, I decided to go with a bold necklace. I love this necklace because it will always and forever remind me of our maternity photo shoot we did while I was pregnant with Ryder. It's crazy how attached I get to random things because of the memories they hold!
