Outfit Details: Dress {ON SALE} MORE SIZES HERE | Earrings {everyday favorites} | Lip Sheer, by Beautycounter in PLUM with FIG Gloss
Hey friends-hope that you are having a great week. Thank you so much for your comments on social media about Isabelle’s birth story. Currently, I am working away during naptime with the sweetest little bundle napping on my chest. I love the newborn stage. So many snuggles…my heart may just burst. Here is my first post-pregnancy fashion inspiration. 🙂
In all honesty, I have been wearing these leggings most days, but it was so much fun to get dressed up finally. I wore this dress {MORE SIZES HERE} over the weekend to Isabelle’s Sip and See…it’s flowy yet flattering and is nursing-friendly {has little buttons}. The postpartum body is beautiful, and I am slowly learning to just embrace it completely. I don’t shed my weight super fast {shedding it way faster than the 1st time, however}, and I certainly don’t fit into my skinny jeans. I just had a baby, and it took 9 months to grow that sweet one. I think that we all have to be more gracious and accepting of the body that we have been given. Every women is different and we can’t compare because it will only lead to a robbed sense of joy. So, coming from a second time mama, just be confident in who you are and I can promise you that you will be way happier that way! At least, this sentiment has been true for me this time around.
Anyway, back to the light-heartedness of this fashion post…the shades of rose and pink in the dress made me want to write a post on this EXTREMELY POPULAR color this season…have you all seen the gorgeous shades of pink and texture of velvet out there?! I’m crushing on both!
Right now, I am loving:
– Perfume
– these flats {totally a splurge, but they are fun to look at!!}
– this rose lipgloss {MY FAVORITE}
Stay tuned for a few more baby-related posts, Isabelle’s newborn shoot {you may not seen this sneak peak on Insta} and TONS of holiday inspiration and gift guides! Can’t believe that November is here! What are you all loving this season?! xo, Christine
