One of the absolute best things about losing weight is I am able to shop my own closet. Everything I am wearing is a couple years old but fits so much better now that I have shed 34 pounds. I had this skirt on Poshmark for about 6 months because it was so tight on me but now it fits perfectly so I took it off and decided to keep it.

Speaking of... I have tons of new items on Poshmark so check out my closet!

Nautical Style

 I have always been a fan of nautical style and this dress is no exception. I love the classic shape and navy and white pattern...of course I had to go the extra step and throw some red into the mix with my necklace.

If you have not tried ColourPop Cosmetics yet, check out their website!  I am loving everything...lip products, blush, eye liner...I have tried it all and not been disappointed with anything.

Nautical

I had a bit of a scare over the weekend and called in to my doctor's office yesterday and went in for a ultrasound at 10:30am. I have been feeling a ton of pressure in my lower stomach and getting nosebleeds frequently all the sudden (obviously separate incidents). All the nurse heard was twins in our conversation and got me in right away...the one good thing about being considered "high-risk".  Turns out both babies and myself are perfectly fine and healthy but they are both head down and getting bigger hence the heavy/pressure feeling.  My doctor suggested getting a pregnancy belt which is basically a girdle to hoist my belly up because it is only going to get worse.  Oh, the joys of pregnancy I never knew about. 

PS- nosebleeds are also common during pregnancy due to the increase blood flow in your body and make your tissues soften.  This can cause your blood vessels to constrict, which results in congestion and bloody noses.

Nautical Stripes and a Cardigan

I really love the nautical look in the summertime. Anything that has black and white or blue and white stripes that I can grab my hands on in a store usually comes home to my closet. This Francesca's dress is a recent purchase but it was not on the website for a link up.  It is really comfortable and has the wide band that acts as a built in belt...perfect to throw on in a hurry.

Parisian Chic...

I am feeling very "Parisian chic" in this outfit...like I should be strolling down a cobblestone street to a quaint, little cafe to enjoy a coffee and some type of puff pastry.

Instead, I am heading to work but a girl can dream.
