Swapping summer blooms for autumn hues 🍁🌾 Lo Swapping summer blooms for autumn hues 🍁🌾 Loving the fall vibes these planters bring to my front porch. 

Already in the planters are:
-Sword Ferns
-Vinca (2 in each)

Then I took out my impatiens (replanted them in the yard for the time being, they are annuals but I couldn’t get rid of them just yet) and added in fall color:

-Miz America mustard in the center in front of the fern
-heuchera aka Coral Bells on either side (1 Southern Comfort and 1 Berry Smoothie variety in each pot) in front of each vinca
-3 silverdust aka Dusty Miller in the middle

All of these plants will last through the fall & winter here (zone 7) I am told! 

I’m no pro gardener but I am loving turning into a full-on plant lady🙂 & learning a lot as I go! Follow along because I’ll continue to share my planter arrangements!

Style Before, During, & After Pregnancy with PinkBlush

One of the (many) things I think inevitably pops into an expectant mothers mind surrounding pregnancy is how they are going to dress their bump as it gets bigger! I mean, for me it’s definitely fun to think about but I also know that I don’t want to be spending a bunch of money on clothes I can only wear when I’m pregnant. So when I came across PinkBlush, I knew I had really hit the jackpot with that! So today I’m going to share why I love it and how it allows me to still have style before, during, and after pregnancy without breaking the bank. Whether you are pregnant or not, I think you’ll love these styles!

PinkBlush has an incredible selection of clothing, all of which are intended to be able to be worn before, during, and after being pregnant. You’ll see on their website they have sections for Women, Maternity, Women Plus, and Maternity Plus. You’ll notice even the regular women’s clothing is nice and flowy and you can tell you have room to grow in those but they are still so cute. A lot of the maternity wear is also flowy or stretchy, and many have tie waists so you can adjust as your waistline changes size. It’s really such a great place to shop because you know you can wear the pieces over and over. And the prices are great! PS- they even have a baby+kids section!

When the below pictures were taken, I was 15 weeks pregnant and just had a tiny little bump, but everything I chose I will be able to wear as I continue to grow!

Outfit #1 featuring the Open Knit Cowl Neck Sweater

I love this sweater! It is so stretchy and falls perfectly. It has an open knit style and a cold shoulder, making it perfect for that spring transition! It also comes in a few different colors. I also love that you can wear it knotted up, which is one of my favorite touches to do with a top. It’s great with a little tank top underneath.

Outfit #2 featuring the Knit Button Tie Front Top

Knowing I’m having a July baby, I always have summer styles with a larger bump in mind. This knit tie front top really caught my eye because it will be perfect for both spring, summer, and after baby! It is stretchy and lightweight, and the tie front lets you adjust the size and how it falls. I also think it would be really cute with shorts and even over dresses! I can see myself tying it up over top of a bump with a little dress underneath.

Outfit #3 featuring the Striped Knit Long Cardigan

Obviously this style can be worn anytime, but I particularly love this long cardigan because of how lightweight it is…I can definitely wear it later in my pregnancy in the spring & even summer over dresses or any outfit. Obviously here I threw it on over the knit tie front top and it worked perfectly. It’s a pretty perfect cardi, if you ask me.

I can’t wait to show you more styles as I go further into my pregnancy. Be sure to subscribe to my email newsletter so you never miss a post, and follow me on Instagram to stay up to date with all my styles!

Some habits are big & some are small but I’ve no Some habits are big & some are small but I’ve noticed these make me feel more put together & productive as a stay at home working mom of 3🫶🏼 they just help put me in the right state of mind to knock out that to-do list!

1. Working out - have been trying to get back into being an AM workout girly 
2. Getting ready - dressed, a little makeup, and some jewelry. victoriaemerson is my daily go-to!
3. Writing out my to do list - so I can figure out the most efficient way to get things done!
4. Doing a quick clean/tidying up - I find the mess and clutter to be distracting so I work better when it’s clean!
5. Lighting a candle - just had a nice calming & focusing effect. Then I get to work!

What is a daily habit that helps you?!

Linking my jewelry as well, comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links to your DMs! ⬇ https://liketk.it/4ORwb
