13 Thoughts from 13 Weeks

If you read this title and wondered what the heck I was writing about, let me fill you in: I'm pregnant! Brandon and I announced the pregnancy on Instagram a couple months ago, which is pretty early considering most couples wait until right around now to spill the news. Props to those who wait this long, I was ready to tell basically everyone the moment I found out.

10 Pieces, 10 Outfits

Earlier this year I participated in my first ever 10x10 challenge. It was such a cool learning experience and I really enjoyed exercising my styling muscles throughout the challenge. So I was a little bummed that I didn’t jump in on the fun for the summer challenge.

I definitely wanted to share more about the 10 key items I picked for my summer capsule wardrobe and I thought what better way to do that than to style some outfits!

what's new to the capsule: summer

Spring 10x10 Day 5

Happy Saturday guys! I don't usually post on the weekends but I wasn't able to publish this post yesterday because life got real crazy. Like, taking Uber to work because you left your keys in your husband's car crazy, which now that I type it out doesn't sound as stressful as it was when I was living through it yesterday.

Anyway, here's Day 5's look, just a little later than planned!

Spring 10x10 Day 1

I like this look! The distressed jeans are a new addition to my closet (they’re replacing my other high rise black denim) and I’m obsessed. I think the green sweater helps liven and soften the black denim and black “leather” jacket. I’m all for edgy outfits, but I prefer to keep things softer in spring. I put a lot more effort into my hair and makeup for Day 1. I’ve been wearing my hair either down or up lately, so the half top knot was a nice break from routine.
