Can You Put My Hair In A Ponytail?

How are my lovely readers?  Are you still even out there?   I've been a bad blogger, a very bad blogger.  I will openly and unabashedly blame pregnancy and then motherhood. To bring you up to speed I have a lovely, cuddly, adorable six month old baby girl.  Who fills my heart and life with so much joy it is truly unspeakable.  I love being a mommy.   I will tell you that the season of being pregnant for me was a difficult one.  I wasn't one of those women who glowed and loved being pregnant.  I was one of those women who threw up in her trash can at work, ate tums by the bowl full and was so swollen that by the end of my pregnancy only flip flops would do.   I was also a very impatient pregnant person.  I wanted the weeks to speed along and sadly they creeped along.  And each week brought on a new ailment I wasn't prepared for.  The heartburn and vomiting seemed cruel and unusual enoug...

What's What

Happy Thursday (and almost June) this and thatters!!  I hope you've all had a great week and are gearing up for a fabulous weekend.  Please enjoy this edition of what's what.  xoxo 1. Pantene BB Cream Ok so I have to be honest that I was a bit skeptical about BB cream for hair!  I mean is it really necessary or is it just one more product?  My curiosity got the better of me and I gave it a try and surprise, surprise I loved it.  I put it on my hair when it is a bit damp and it makes it incredibly soft and actually helps with styling.  I am a big fan! 2.  The Hills/Laguna Beach I'm not sure if you've heard but The Hills and Laguna Beach are going to be aired on MTV this summer and I couldn't be more thrilled.  I spend a lot of time watching TV these days with my prego feet propped up :) so hearing the news that MTV was bringing back two of my fav shows filled my heart with joy. I can't wait to hear Kristin say "Steppphhhen"...

Happy Friday and long weekend this and thatters!  I hope you enjoy this beautiful weekend and this edition of what's what.  xoxo 1.  Road Runner Sports Sooo I needed new running shoes in the worst possible way and I decided to hit up road runner sports.  I went because I've never been there before and I wanted to see what their experience was all about!  To say I fell in love would be an understatement :)  The way they fit you for shoes is awesome and they even custom make your in-soles.  I ended up with some awesome shoes that are going to allow me to stay active during my pregnancy and I'm thrilled. 2.  Aveda Shampure Candles Right now my sense of smell rivals that of a blood hounds so when I was getting my hair did the other day and they were burning aveda's shampure candles I died!!  I had to ask what is that awesome candle?!  I instantly snapped up 2 of them and have been burning them constantly.  Give them a try and ...

Happy Monday Readers!!!  How are you?   I had a bit of a busy weekend, how about you?  I am almost glad today is Monday so I can get back in the swing of things!  Lately I have been scouring the internet for cute nursery and home ideas and have come across some super cute sites.  I hope you enjoy some of my favorite things! 1.  Serena and Lily I must have been hiding under rock because I hadn't heard of Serena and Lily until recently.  Now I am obsessed!!  They have the cutest sheets, towels and fabric.  I am loving their nursery collection and the best part (ending today) everything is 20% off!   http://www.serenaandlily.com 2.  Urban Outfitters (apartment) Who knew Urban Outfitters had the cutest home goods/furniture?!  I have been on the hunt for cute side tables and coffee tables and found the cutest coffee table at UO.  It also has an amazing price point!    3.  Garne...

Hey this and thatters!  How are ya? Sorry I've been a bit absent lately but being 6 months pregnant and going to bed at 8 p.m. has seriously cut into my blogging :)  But I am going to be better I promise.  To make it up to you I bring to you my bling favorites!!  These are the items I am loving for spring and in fact haven't been able to take off.  Enjoy!  xoxo 1.  Love Necklace I spotted this necklace at Nordstrom and instantly fell in love!  I literally haven't taken it off since I got it.  I just pile on other necklaces with it.  I sleep in it, swim in it and have no plans of taking it off anytime soon.  I hope you love it as much as I do (pun intended)! 2.  Stella and Dot Stunner I am really digging delicate necklaces right now that I can layer together.  When I saw this stella and dot necklace I knew it would be a great addition to my collection and boy was I right!  I wear it constantly an...

Hello lovelies!!  How are you?  I am so excited that it's FRIDAY :)  Mostly because this little prego lady hasn't been feeling well and I need a weekend to rest.  While I'm putting my feet up I hope you enjoy this edition of what's what!  xoxo 1.  Maternity Clothes So I am not the first or the last prego lady to look for fashionable, reasonably priced maternity clothes and be nothing but disappointed!  I will tell you that I have found the cutest stuff at ASOS maternity and Gap....no joke.  ASOS has adorable and affordable clothes and it's stuff I would actually wear if I wasn't pregnant.  Thank goodness for that because my days of squeezing into my regular clothes are dwindling :) 2.  New Cool-Cat Colors After months of waiting (and nagging the hubs) we finally got the fabulous new Cool-Cat colors in!  I love, love the red, pink and black so much.  I have been wearing them non-stop working out or not!  Go che...
