Grab My Button!

Stylin' Mommies

Crazy Pants

Wednesday, January 16, 2013

We are half way through the week. I feel like sometimes as a mom you are counting down the days till you have some help from the husband and some free time with the weekend. A break from the day-to-day chores and duties of being a stay-at-home mom. It is hard work but definitely worth it when you hear your sweet one-year-old saying "mom" or "hold you". It's definitely the little things that make life great! So here is to Friday coming faster... and the weekend lasting longer!:)

Karen from My Chic Bump

Tuesday, January 15, 2013

Hello ladies! Karen here. Mrs. to the most incredible, caring man, mommy to two dreamy little girls, and founder of MyChicBump.com a styling blog for all mommies and mommies-to-be.

A little bit about myself ... My husband and I have been married for almost 4 years (we'll be celebrating our anniversary next week! Woohoo!). I like to tease him and tell everybody I married my Facebook stalker, which is not very far from the truth. Haha! We have a beautiful, very energetic 2-year-old with the longest eyelashes you have ever seen (sadly, she gets it from her daddy and not me). Just last month, we welcomed another baby girl into our family and are very much enjoying being parents of two. I love spending my time writing stories, reading, watching over my husband’s shoulders as he cooks away in the kitchen pretending to take notes hehe but really I’m just there to steal a taste. I love pretending I know a thing or two about décor and DIY projects but what I love the most is being a wife and a mother. There is nothing more rewarding nor more enjoyable than spending time with my family and building everlasting memories with them.

At MyChicBump, women can find flattering tips and tricks I've learned while carrying my own baby bump and I'm happy to announce that I'll be expanding the blog to include fitness, beauty and kids' fashion. To learn more on how we will be transitioning from bump to baby, visit us here.

While I was still pregnant, one of my favorite outfits to wear was this long striped tunic from H&M. Elongating your torso is a great way to balance your temporary increase in width. Add a belt to create a distinction between your bust and your belly, highlighting your best assets. I paired it with black leather leggings for a little extra flare. If leather is not you're thing, there are plenty of equally great-looking black leggings at any budget.

Good Old Target

Monday, January 14, 2013

This has been the coldest winter since I can remember. It is crazy. A nice vacation some place warm sounds pretty good about now. :) I have recently mentioned a new website I am working with called andRuby. I love my new teardrop earrings from them. If you haven't checked them out yet you definitely should. They have so much cute new jewelry daily at great prices! So have I ever announced to you all how much I love Target? They are the bomb. I love it when I find cute clothes that are a fraction of the cost compared to designer clothes. I am always looking for a good deal and Target seems to pull through... I don't know what It is about my obsession with wedge sneakers but I just love them and thank you Target!

Christine

Friday, January 11, 2013

Hi, my name is Christine.  I'm a stay-at-home mom of two boys ages 8 and 5.  I love this blog.  It's so fun to be a part of it.

I get so excited when the weather gets cold because I LOVE to wear boots!  I especially like the look of skinny jeans with boots.  (Either ankle booties or my riding boots.)  And the more buckles the better.



Shirt: Hurley
Jeans: Big Star (The Buckle)
Boots: Steve Madden (Dillard's)

Too much Snow!

Thursday, January 10, 2013

Sorry for the the last couple of days of no posts. I have been not feeling so great so getting ready was not a huge priority. Unless you all wanted to see me in sweats and bed head....which is a scary site!

I love big sweaters in the winter. This sweater has been on my blog before worn by another Stylin' Mommy but I have it too and it's a favorite and I thought I would post it still. Also I love my new bracelets from andRuby. They have new items listed almost every day at great prices. And of course you can't go wrong with a simple clutch from Hello Fab. LOVE IT!  We have had quite a bit of snow dumped on us the last couple of days. Did I mention I hate the cold?!
