Six Things


There are six things you need to know about this outfit:

1. This dress was purchased in the little girls' section at Target and was under $4.

2. I've written about these shoes before and how they were $3 and that Chris thinks they are ugly.

3. My sister in law made me this scarf for Christmas and I LOVE it.  She is definitely talented.


4. I bought this flower ring at Old Navy last week and it makes me happy.

5. I wanted to wear my favorite grey tights with this outfit but ripped a whole in them with my nails when I was putting them on.

6. Speaking of nails, if you look closely my nails are nicely painted which is a very rare occasion.


Hope you are having a good week!  After not working for almost 7 weeks I am very ready for the weekend already!

    The little girl section is great for steals! Great find! And that scarf is gorgeous! AND thank you for the reminder: I really need to paint my nails!

    The dress looks sooooo comfy! Especially in that in-between regular and maternity clothes stage. I would live in dresses right now if I could! And the scarf is beautiful -- what a great talent to have (I'm jealous of those who can knit and crochet!)

    Girls section?!! Never thought to look there! Power rings are the best, they do make a girl smile. And, I'm thinking you and empire waist lines are gonna be besties over the next few months ;)

    Ripping tights is the worst. That's why you need to keep extras on hand!

    I often check the kids section of stores too...especially at REI when I need new long underwear or a fleece. So much cheaper! BTW...love that scarf. I've been craving a comfy infinity scarf-if only I could knit!

    Love the dress, what a deal!!! And I never got a chance to congratulate you on your last post. I am so so happy for you!!!! It must have been so scary dealing with the bleeding, especially after going through everything else you have been through. I always thought it would get easy after IVF...I couldn't have been more wrong. Thinking of you and again so so happy for you and your family!!!

    I can't believe you got that from the little girls section for $4 - best deal ever!!! I almost bought a sweater from the little boys section last week, then decided I just didn't need it.

    LOL! Have a good one! Hope you are feeling well!
