There comes a point in pregnancy where you crave 24/7 comfort. You just want to wear fabrics that make you feel cozy.

You would quickly be disappointed as when you start walking down the beautiful glitter labeled aisles you would find nothing on the shelves. Maybe a few sketches of SKUs that could be.

This triggered me to rummage through my reseller bin for a full length skirt I previously thrifted. It has a richly colored leaf pattern that matches the fall season perfectly.
The skirt is not a “maternity” item by category, however…

The election results are not known and many folks in the United States are sitting on the edge of their seats. Rightfully so, as there has been A LOT of divide in the American land. Regardless of which side folks stand on (#teambiden or #teamtrump) or those that remain central – this one fact remains.

Girl, Yes! You most certainly can rock a mini dress while pregnant! One of my favorite lounge dresses is a thrifted Athleta Black V-Necked Topanga Dress. I wore it all the time before getting knocked up – so I figured why give up now!!! Allow those extra curves and thick thighs to elevate the sexy mamacita-ness! My strategy is:
