Great Expectations

Once the baby arrives, I plan on snapping back into shape right away.

I kid, I kid.

But seriously though. Temperatures are holding steady in the 80's with no signs of slowing down and I will need some new warm weather attire. Those adorable pink shorts? Elastic waistband! I'm ahead of the game already.

Other items I've been checking out that I hope will be equally as figure-friendly?

Flowy maxi's and forgiving tops....

And, of course, my favorite summer staple, despite the blazing heat:

The perfect pair of white jeans. These will be my motivation, if nothing else.

Yes, we live at the beach. But I can't even wrap my head around the thought of bikini-season. I've been purposefully avoiding that section at all stores. I've chosen to focus more on cover-ups....

Don't think I've left my little man out of all my shopping adventures. Tanner has been cleaning up in the clothes department! One of my favorite purchases:

Currently making my way through this book. Pretty interesting and amazing stuff. Recommended to us by moms in the know ;) Anyone have experience with this?

Let's be clear, I'm not actually 'loving' this one. But it does interest me and I'm a sucker for anything Bravo-related. According to various media outlets, Real Housewives Of Miami has been renewed for a 2nd season. Seriously? I kind of thought it was a snoozefest.

MINUS....

Oh. Yes. Mama Elsa. The ONLY reason I may be watching next season.

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme!

It is literally taking every ounce of self control not to go crazy with all of the pre-Fall sales online. SO many adorable things that I'd love to have! In an effort to curb these impulses, I'm simply going to post them.
For now.

I love me some Rachel Zoe! And I am eagerly awaiting the new season of RZ Project. So, naturally I was ecstatic when I found out she'd be designing a line featured on my go-to online shopping site, Piperlime. (It can also be found at Neiman Marcus and other retailers)

Well, most of the pieces are cute, but for the price point? I would definitely rather have a Tucker blouse or Tibi dress.
