For the Home

We should be moving in less than two weeks... *fingers crossed*.  Mind you, we still haven't found a home! I'm trusting that it'll all work out and until then just daydreaming about getting to decorate a new place...

I don't know exactly how to describe my interior decorating style but I definitely know what I like when I see it. haha It's a mix of black and white, patterns and pops of color. I guess it's a mix of bohemian and modern which is very similar to my personal style! I'm drawn to mid-century modern, eclectic and Scandinavian interior decorating styles.

Some items I'm eyeing...

1. Ikea bed
2. Ikea rug
3. Ikea cart
4. Target pouf
5. Target accent table
6. Urban Outfitters wall planter
7. Urban Outfitters pillow cover
8. Urban Outfitters rug
9. Urban Outfitters pillow
10. Urban Outfitters shelf

New Mom Shopping

Now that I'm not super duper pregnant... I want to go shopping! haha Of course, there are still limitations. Items have to be breastfeeding friendly! Also, I'm not about to go buy pants/shorts that may be too big in a few months. So, mostly, I'm eyeballing blousy tops and shirt dresses at the moment!  I also need to find a nursing cami that I really like (or do this) because tossing one of those on under just about any shirt (one you can pull up) definitely simplifies things. Some drawstring pants would be nice too because I'm finding that my over the belly maternity pants are too loose but I don't fit into all of my regular pants yet.

1. H&M shirt dress  2. Forever 21 crochet dress  3. Old Navy soft pants  4. Old Navy drapey denim pants  5. Old Navy embroidered blouse  6. Forever 21 crochet paneled skirt  7. Marc Jacobs dress  8. Victoria's Secret cover up  9. Gap fit n flare shirtdress

Purchases: April

Oops, went over budget! I haven't bought any skirts in a while so I'm still hoping to find some. I did get some shorts which is good because most of mine from last year no longer fit (thanks weightlifting haha). Of course, I had to get new sandals. hehe I'm a sucker for strappy sandals! Our Summer lasts all the way until October though so they get plenty of wear time.

Beach day with my gals! Don't mind my crazy wind blown hair haha

I had my hair bleached for the first time and then dyed this cool orange red shade! It was done for free by my stylist in return for me doing this hair photoshoot. It was fun!

Being silly down in PB with a friend. Can you even tell he is a hot dog? haha

I've been doing a lot of re-decorating lately. This dresser is a new purchase! It's just from Walmart.

Because I love prints! Shorts are from Target, pants from Old Navy and scarf from Burlington Coat Factory.

New boyfriend kahkis from Old Navy (super comfy but they do stretch out a lot) and my comfy Payless flats.

A lot of the items I bought this month aren't available online so I didn't do my usual picture collage.
