. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Lately

July 30, 2013

Lately

dress & sandals: ASOS    belt: target

Still loving anything animal print.  Please tell me when this is no longer trendy.  Or maybe don't because I'm not ready to give it up yet.  Keep the elephant, giraffe and bird prints coming. 

Deciding if I like this dress better with or with the belt.  Opinions welcome. 

Gold Block Letter Initial Necklace
Wanting to order everything with Addilyn's initials or name on it.  I am waiting for this necklace that I found on etsy for $13! (But in an A of course) 

Wearing lots of shorts and t-shirts around the house, like this batman tee. 

Jack of All Trades tee

Needing some cuter, nicer pajamas since I'm spending quite a bit of time in those too.  I would love ones like this


Enjoying some fresh air outside, trying to catch up on blog reading and feeling thankful for some very cool July weather so we can spend some time out of the house.  


Hoping you're having a good start to the week!

I thought you'd stop uploading so regularly once you had Addilyn. Seems not. Totally not fair that you get to LOOK great and be a mom who's already on top of things so early after giving birth. Addilyn's so cute! The dress looks better with the belt to cinch it in ( as it's not so form fitting)I love the idea of having a necklace initial of her name. It's totally cute.

I live in pajamas and short/t-shirt combos and I'm not even a mom yet. They're totally underrated!

Too cute! See, you need to keep the animal themes going now that you have a little one :)

How do you have the energy to keep up regular posts!???

I like the dress with the belt. But, without is much more convenient for nursing....only at home, of course :) Love that you are doing outfit posts already!

Such a cute dress. I like it belted. Seriously girlfriend you would not know you had just had a baby in that t-shirt! Loving the elephants. Ashli (Mini Manor) is using elephants in her nursery for their adopted son Hudson. Love it!

A) I love animal prints, I need to add some with my wardrobe! B) Belted, definitely. C) You look ridiculous(ly good) for just having a baby! D) I love that Batman tee! My daughter has one almost identical to it. ;) I didn't know it came in my size!

I LOVE this dress. Goodness, you look in this. And I agree...I love animal prints. I like it with the belt, but both are super cute. So glad you're having a cool July...love that sweet picture of Addilyn outside.

I love it with the belt! It would be fun to use a colored belt, too!

Rachel said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

I really like the dress with the belt added. Superman is my personal superhero t-shirt of choice, but we all have our favorites! :P

Heather Ann said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

belt for sure!!!! It just adds a little something! It would be really cute with a pop of color so maybe a colorful belt?

Ginny said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Fun dress! I like it belted. It would be cute unbelted but with a cardigan for school too. Yay for cool days on te deck too!

Jackie said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

you look great! I like the dress better with the belt. I think it needs a little structure like that.

That elephant print is adorable! Love the photo of Addilyn outside :) I'm so impressed that you're able to still find time to blog with a newborn!

How do you look so good? :)

I much prefer the dress with the belt. Give you more shape.

Addilyn is such a doll!!

I like the dress better with the belt. It is such cute material! Love your shoes, too.

Denise said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

You are so beyond cute.

Elegance and Mommyhood said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Aww she looks so comfy & adorable on that swinging chair. And that elephant dress is beautiful ( I prefer it with the belt). I, like you, hope the animal trend doesn't go away anytime soon.

Janna Renee said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

I like the dress with and without the belt! If it were longer it might look too baggy, but it seems like an appropriate length. I think I would add a long, fun necklace though!
